Shopping Near Davenport ?

[Dads_Taxi]

Hi, we're going to be staying in the Davenport area, having always stayed near the 192 on previous trips.

Could anyone advise me please, is there a decent Walmart or Publix near to the Davenport area? Also which would be the nearest mall?

I've read on here good reports about The Millenia Mall, which is a new one on me - whereabouts is that please?

Thanks folks.

Hi Dave,

There is indeed a Publix supermarket in this area. Is is on the US 27 in shopping strip called Berry Town Centre and is next to Highlands Reserve on the right hand side if you were coming from the 192 and going south on the 27, approx 2.5 to 3 miles.

There is also a Walmart at Caguns Crossing (near the junction of the 192/27 and a Walmart at Haines City, it depends where abouts you are staying as to the nearest one Dave. Which community are you staying on?

Millenia Mall is relatively new - guessing about 2 or 3 years old and is quite near Universal Studios. There is a Cheesecake Factory there which shouldn't be missed[msnsmile2]

Posner Park is another development that new stores are opening all the time and is near the junction of 27/I4.

It depends where you are in Davenport. There is are 2 Publix nearby. One on Champions Gate and another one just a mile away on Lake Wilson Road. There are a number of new shops opening there too. The Posner Centre is not far away either just at the junction of the I4 and the 27 and there are new stores opening there all the time. When we were there last there was JC Penney and a Super Target. Also a sports store a Michaels a bookstore and more opening all the time.

I'm sure you will have a great time.

Wow, speedy replies, thanks.

I will have to consult a map to find out where we will be, as I'm totally new to that region. I'll be back with more details soon!

You could well be South of the I4.

There is a Publix opposite the Hospital somewhere between 3 - 4 miles form the I4, there is a Walmart in Davenport by southern Dunes.

there is a lovely quiet Mall called Eagle Ridge Mall this is further south on the I4. You will find bowling and a cinema here also.

Might be worth finding out where in Davenport you are then we can give you a better idea.

If you tell us the community you are staying on, we can be more specific.

Hmm, does Whittier Street mean anything to anyone? It seems to be off Lake Shore Parkway, which is itself off Ronald Reagan Parkway, just South of Exit 58 of the I4. Anyway, that's where we're staying. Sorry I've no idea which community this is. However that's where we'll be setting off from in search of shops!

We used to own a villa in Whittier Street - it's on Bridgewater Crossing and you will be very close to the Publix at Champions Gate - and even closer to the new Publix by Reunion.

Aha, I've found Champions Gate in my guide book, yep we're staying very close to there by the look of this (rather vague) map.

Having found our location on the map, I feel slightly better, I thought we were staying in the middle of nowhere, but the I4 leads to most places by the look of it - I'll be clocking up some miles on the I4 I think.

Does Champions Gate offer any other shops?

Thanks again for everyone's input.

Oh, it's OK, I just found a full list on the Champions Gate website! The Internet is wonderful. Can I assume BP Connect is a Gas Station? Or I'm I just being too British?
