Eastwood Mall Lands Another Valley First – Dave & Buster’s: the Nation’s Premier Destination to ‘EAT, DRINK, PLAY, & WATCH’

One of America’s favorite names in entertainment is coming to the Eastwood Mall Complex in Niles, Ohio. Dave & Buster’s brings over 23,000 square feet of gaming, food, and entertainment to a space near Firebirds Wood Fired Grill, with entrances located both on the outside of the mall and the interior concourse. The newest iteration of Dave & Buster’s will be the Mahoning Valley’s largest venue to WATCH your favorite sporting events on numerous HD screens while you EAT & DRINK surrounded by arcade games and virtual reality simulations featuring Top Gun ®, Maverick ® and Transformers ® for the entire family to PLAY. The opening of this highly popular entertainment venue is just the first step in redeveloping the mall’s anchor space which currently houses Dillard’s which is anticipated to close this summer.

Work is now underway to introduce new and exciting businesses to that portion of the mall that will offer more great shopping, phenomenal entertainment and valuable services to families in our region. This project is part of the ongoing reinvestment in and re-invention of the locally owned Eastwood Mall Complex. “Our community deserves nothing but the best! We’re excited to welcome the nation’s preeminent entertainment destination, Dave & Buster’s, to the Valley’s one stop destination for shopping, dining, and entertainment – Eastwood Mall Complex, states Cafaro Co-President, Anthony Cafaro, Jr.,

Celebrating the Survivors

The battle against breast cancer is grim and all too common in our nation. That is why it is heartening to know that more women than ever are surviving that battle. On Sunday, October 22, Eastwood Mall will host a Survivor Recognition Ceremony with Zeta Tau Alpha and CheerTime Athletics, in partnership with Hot 101-FM. The ceremony will take place at noon in the mall’s Center Court.

This is a special opportunity for breast cancer survivors of our community to unite and celebrate with members of the community. They will enjoy special performances honoring local survivors, a recognition walk and survivor gifts. In order to register as a survivor, email Kim at ztacheerclassicregister@gmail.com .

Zeta Tau Alpha is a national sorority whose philanthropy is breast cancer education and awareness. One in eight women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime, so this cause is often personal. Breast cancer touches many lives. Through local and national partnerships, campus and community initiatives, and the distribution of millions of pink ribbons since 1992, ZTA collegiate and alumnae members are dedicated to this philanthropy.

The Eastwood Mall Complex is located at 5555 Youngstown-Warren Road, in Niles, Ohio. It is one of America’s largest shopping complexes, with more than 200 department stores, specialty shops, restaurants, hotels and entertainment options. The Eastwood Mall Complex is owned and managed in association with Cafaro-affiliated companies, based in Niles, Ohio.
