IT'S CHILL TIME
Life outside college and hostel is important too… so here is a guide for the mall-crazy people out there! Basically there are three malls worth going to in Mangalore - City Centre, Forum FIza and Bharath Mall.
CITY CENTRE
CITY CENTRE
Address - K.S.Rao road, Hampankatta, Mangalore - 570001
It is THE most crowded mall in Mangalore. It surpassed our expectations too on our first visit there. Though the mall has extremely irritating escalators is a different story altogether (you'll remember me when you go there!, :p)
Being hostelites, food is the most important aspect. To name a few options: Dominos, Pizza Hut, Cafe Coffee day, Kobe Sizzlers, Baskin Robbins...
A shoppers’ paradise….especially during the sale season, one can choose from a huge variety of brands...from Adidas, Reebok to Reliance Trends, Levis, Pantaloons to Woodlands and Catwalk!
There are many sources of entertainment too: bowling alley, gaming arcade, shooting , archery and most importantly... Cinepolis, a multiplex, to catch up on the latest movies!!!
Just a bus ride away...it is the ideal weekend getaway for us!

BHARATH MALL
Address: Bejai Kavoor Road, Lalbagh, Mangalore 575003
It is a decent mall but not as good as City Centre. There are some good eateries like Pizza Hut and Subway. The food court is also pretty good. Shops like Big Bazaar, Planet M, Provogue make it a good place to shop too..
There is a gaming zone and Big Cinemas - an alternative for movie watching.
The best feature would perhaps be its location - located centrally in Mangalore; close to the main bus station and walking distance from Pabba’s !!!
A place worth visiting... (to get a break from City Centre!!!)

FORUM FIZA
Address: Forum Fiza Mall, Pandeshwar, Mangaluru, Karnataka 575001
Forum Fiza is arguably the best mall in Mangalore. It is Mangalore's answer to any top mall in any metropolitan city like Delhi, Mumbai or Pune. It has all the top brands and if you're planning to go on a shopping spree(hear, hear girls) and splurge out cash, this is the right place for you. The mall has a multiplex cinema theatre - PVR. Really affordable movie ticket prices no matter which day or time you go. To top it all amazing facilities at PVR(Well it's PVR at the end of the day, :p). All you need to do to reach here is take an express bus from NITK Main Gate, tell the conductor RTO bus stop, when you reach the bus stop, keep walking straight from the circle and voila, you've reached! |
