Shopping in and Around Lake Highlands: Everything You Need Close to Home

One of the things we love about living in Lake Highlands is that you don't have to go far to find just about anything you need.

Whether you're picking up groceries, grabbing something for dinner, looking for a new outfit, shopping for a birthday gift, or planning a Saturday afternoon of retail therapy, Lake Highlands puts an impressive variety of shopping destinations within easy reach.

And that's one of the neighborhood's underrated advantages. You're close enough to some of Dallas' best shopping destinations to enjoy the convenience without having to live in the middle of a commercial district.

Here are a few of our favorite shopping destinations in and around Lake Highlands.

Start in the Neighborhood

For everyday errands, Lake Highlands has several convenient shopping centers that make it easy to stay close to home.

Lake Highlands Town Center is one of the neighborhood's most convenient hubs, anchored by Sprouts Farmers Market and surrounded by restaurants, services and everyday businesses. It's the kind of place where you can pick up groceries, grab lunch and take care of a few errands without making a major outing of it.

For residents farther east in Lake Highlands, Lakeridge Village Shopping Center provides another convenient neighborhood option for everyday services and errands.

You'll also find Town Creek Shopping Center near Abrams and Royal, adding even more practical shopping and services to the area.

The appeal isn't necessarily that these centers are destinations for an entire afternoon. It's that they're close, convenient and useful—which, when you're busy, can be just as valuable.

NorthPark Center: A Shopping Destination Right Around the Corner

When you're ready for a more serious shopping trip, it's hard to beat NorthPark Center.

Located at Central Expressway and Northwest Highway, NorthPark is one of Dallas' premier shopping destinations, with more than 200 stores and restaurants. The center includes major department stores, luxury boutiques, popular national retailers and an impressive collection of dining options.

But NorthPark is more than just a mall.

Its museum-quality art collection, architecture, landscaping and CenterPark garden make walking around the center an experience in itself. You can shop for a new pair of shoes, stop for lunch, admire a piece of art and catch a movie—all in the same outing.

For Lake Highlands residents, having this caliber of shopping so close to home is a pretty significant perk.

The Shops at Park Lane: Everyday Shopping Meets Style

Directly across Central Expressway from NorthPark is The Shops at Park Lane, an open-air shopping and dining destination that is particularly convenient for everyday retail.

The current tenant lineup includes Whole Foods Market, Nordstrom Rack, DSW, HomeGoods, ULTA Beauty, IKEA, J.Crew Factory, LOFT, Old Navy, Bloomingdale's Outlet, Saks OFF 5th and more.

It's a great alternative when you don't need the full NorthPark experience but still want plenty of options in one stop.

And because it's an open-air center, it's easy to combine shopping with lunch, coffee or a quick bite.

Preston Royal: Boutique Shopping and Everyday Convenience

Head west toward Preston Road and Royal Lane and you'll find Preston Royal, another long-standing North Dallas shopping destination.

Preston Royal has a different feel from NorthPark and Park Lane. It's more neighborhood-oriented, with a mix of restaurants, specialty shops, services and businesses that make it useful for both errands and leisurely stops.

It's the kind of shopping destination that becomes part of your regular routine after you live in the area for a while.

When You Want Something a Little More Special

One of the advantages of Lake Highlands' location is that you're also within easy reach of some of Dallas' most distinctive shopping districts.

For luxury shopping, Highland Park Village offers an entirely different experience, with designer fashion, fine jewelry and upscale boutiques in an iconic open-air setting.

For a more eclectic experience, Inwood Village and West Village offer boutique shopping alongside restaurants, coffee shops and places to spend an afternoon.

And when you're looking for something beyond traditional retail, Dallas' many neighborhood shopping districts make it easy to turn a simple shopping trip into a day out.

Why Shopping Is One of Lake Highlands' Hidden Perks

When people talk about Lake Highlands, they often mention the neighborhood's mature trees, parks, White Rock Lake, schools, community feel and convenient location.

But shopping convenience deserves a place on that list.

You can stay close to home for everyday errands, head to NorthPark when you're looking for something special, browse the open-air shops at Park Lane, or venture into surrounding neighborhoods for boutiques and specialty stores.

And because Lake Highlands sits in a particularly convenient part of Dallas, you're never far from the next destination.

It's one more reason life in Lake Highlands feels easy.
