The Grove LA

How to Get There

From Los Angeles: Take W 3rd St west toward Fairfax Ave, turn right onto Fairfax Ave and then left onto The Grove Dr to reach the parking structure and main entrance.

Overview

The Grove features a large central park with an animated fountain designed by WET. Its music-fountain show plays every hour, though the feature has a non-musical program in between shows. The water's choreography is reminiscent of the Fountains of Bellagio in Las Vegas—also designed by WET—but on a much smaller scale.

The property also has a statue, The Spirit of Los Angeles. Live shows are often performed there—on the grassy area by the fountains. An internal transit system uses electric-powered trolley cars to link The Grove and the adjacent Farmers Market.

Shops and restaurants

The Grove is anchored by Nordstrom and has flagship stores such as Barnes & Noble and Apple. Abercrombie & Fitch previously had its West Coast flagship at the mall, which closed in 2015, and has since been replaced by Nike. Other stores in the center include Michael Kors, Gap, J.Crew & Crew Cuts, Crate & Barrel, Nike, MAC Cosmetics, Coach, Brandy Melville, Charlotte Tilbury, Frame, Janie and Jack, Lululemon, Madewell, Paige, Pottery Barn Kids, Ray-Ban, Sandro, Athletic Propulsion Labs, See's Candies, Sephora, Splendid, Alo Yoga, Athleta, Swaroski, TopShop/Topman and American Girl Place.

The Grove's many restaurants include chains like Maggiano's Little Italy and The Cheesecake Factory as well as smaller, local restaurants like Wood Ranch BBQ and Grill, 189 by Dominique Ansel, The Whisper Lounge, and La Piazza. The Original Farmers Market, located adjacent to The Grove and owned by the A. F. Gilmore Company, features numerous non-chain restaurants that have existed there for sometimes decades.
