i love kierland commons! i love shopping at pb teen, barns and nobles, teavanna, vs, craft and barrel, brighton.... its such a nice area and there are plenty of resteraunts to grab a quick bite.
theres also a cold stone and i love grabbing ice cream while its hot out!
not to mention they have the best starbucks ( the one near vs) the service there is fantastic and they make my drinks perfectly the way i specify them
plus scottsdale quarter is right down the street and i always have to stop by if im going to kierland.
