Eastland has everything you could need. Big w kmart, coles, woollies, chemists, myer, David Jones, so many cafes, kids play spaces, book stores, anything you need. It's right across the rd from ringwood train station, right across from Costco and chemist warehouse, so many great restaurants and it's huge and lots of parking, the parking costs after 3 hours, just pay as you leave at the machines at exits.. There are toilets, with great parents rooms with little toilets but there definitely could be more toilets. Town square is great, hunky dory and pacos tacos are my favourites.. but toilets up there are shared and hidden around the corner.. I can't think of anything else right now. So that's it. Oh the hotel above it, is a great stay too.

A clean and modern shopping centre comparable to those at the CBD area. There are hmmm.. 1 or maybe 2 supermarkets and departmental stores. A good place to walk, window shop, eat and relax. There is a food court that serve many kinds of mouth-watering food but we ended up eating burgers at Grilled (pls see my review at Grilled for details :).

I understand that Eastland has come quite far in the last few years. I never visited before the renovations/upgrades, but having visited a handful of times over the last few years, I think it's a really nice shopping centre. Not too large as to be overwhelming, but big enough to be worth visiting if you don't know exactly what you're after. The cinemas and restaurants upstairs are great, and so is the area outside on the way to the train station. Plenty of parking as well.

A beautiful Shopping Centre that has such a large variety of shops to choose from. It’s a really nice environment for a pleasant day of Shopping. Plenty to see and also has a large food eating area. If you are tired of your old un renovated Centre give this place a try as it is also close to Costco for your fresh food shopping. Possibly one of the nicest Centres in Melbourne as it feels open and easy to shop without having to walk a long way.

Looks bright and spacious and in the same styling as a lot of shipping centres these days. Information points everywhere and lots of different shops. I can see it meeting a lot of needs across the board, so you should be able to find what you need. While at an information touchscreen, I was approached by 4 staff members asking what I was looking for. While they were friendly and knew where the stores I wanted were located, it was a tad intimidating to be surrounded by staff like that while one is not looking.

This one is better than Glen as it is relatively less crowded and has a good variety of shopping outlets. Even the food court has many options but there's always a struggle to find a seating place in the food court. Parking is a bit of a challenge during peak hours. Few of the restaurants areas are really classy.

For me, this is the shopping centre to visit for all your needs in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne. It's only competition would be Knox City which is undergoing renovations at the moment. One thing to be aware of when heading to Eastland, is the 3-hour limit on free parking. For most people this won't be a problem but if you stay for a meal or a social over a coffee, you'll need to keep an eye on the clock.
