100 Manhattan Town Center · Manhattan, KS

Why you should go…

Manhattan Town Center is a single-level enclosed shopping mall in downtown Manhattan that opened in 1987. Its anchors are Dillard's, JCPenney and the AMC Dine-In Manhattan 13 IMAX theater, with stores like Books-A-Million, Ulta Beauty and Victoria's Secret plus restaurants such as HuHot and Applebee's. It sits a short walk from the Flint Hills Discovery Center, which makes it an easy add-on on a rainy afternoon downtown.

Good to know

General shopping guidance

Habits that pay off across this whole category, not rules for this one venue. Always check the official site for the specifics.

  • Vendor hours are their own thing

    Market stalls and independent sellers keep shorter hours than the building around them, and quiet days end early.

  • Bring a tote and a little cash

    Smaller sellers do not all take cards, and bags are rarely free.

  • Weekdays browse, weekends buzz

    Pick the weekday for a proper look at the shelves and the weekend for the atmosphere.

  • Ask about shipping

    If something will not survive the suitcase, plenty of sellers will send it home for you.
