Features and history
The Outlets at Orange, Orange County’s only outlet shopping mall, is home to more than 120 outlet and value stores including Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5TH, Last Call by Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom Rack, Banana Republic Factory Store, Tommy Hilfiger Company Store, and more. Conveniently located in the middle of Orange County, The Outlets at Orange is only minutes away from popular area attractions including Disneyland Resort, Angels Stadium, Honda Center, and the Anaheim Convention Center.
The Center also features L.A. Fitness, El Torito Restaurant, TGIFridays, Carl's Jr. BJ's Restaurant and Brewhouse, and Krispy Kreme Doughnuts located on its periphery in its parking lots.
Prior to 1998, the site was home to an enclosed mall called The City Shopping Center, featuring anchor stores May Company California and JC Penney, anchoring The City edge city complex. Several streets around the site still have "City" in their names because they were built as part of that complex. Mills purchased the site, originally considering conversion to an outlet mall named "CityMills," but instead built a mix of retail and outlet stores. The center's old slogan was The Block at Orange... It Ain't Square. It was The Mills Corporation's first outdoor mall not to have the "Mills" name.
The former Virgin Megastore was featured in Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan where Borat attempts to kidnap Pamela Anderson.
Three of the former shopping center (The Block at Orange) tenants closed in 2008 and 2009. Virgin Megastore, Steve and Barry's, Hilo Hattie, Koji's Sushi and Ron Jon Surf Shop who left the center due to expiring lease agreements, and Steve & Barry's closed following its company-wide liquidation. These anchors were replaced with the Neiman Marcus Last Call store, Off Broadway Shoes, H&M, Thrill It Fun Center and Guitar Center.
The area is served by OCTA Routes 47, 54, 57, 454, and 757. The Anaheim Resort Transportation shuttle has an hourly stop at the center.
