1. Enjoy the ride
Getting to Empire Outlets is half the fun, as the mall is located steps away from the Staten Island ferry terminal. This free ferry from Manhattan helps make a day of outlet shopping even more affordable.
2. Score great deals
Discounts and product availability varies daily, but look for price drops of 20-50% on popular brands including Nike, Banana Republic, Samsonite, Levi’s, Columbia, and True Religion.
3. Check what's open
Empire Outlets opened its doors in 2019, and new storefronts are being added regularly. Check the outlet website for current and coming-soon brands.
4. Take in the views
When your legs or wallet need a rest, take a break near one of the bubbling fountains at the landscaped plaza and soak in fantastic views of the New York City skyline.
5. Fuel your bargain-hunting
Grab a bite from eateries scattered throughout Empire Outlets—options range from casual snacks at Wetzel’s Pretzels, Starbucks, and Häagen-Dazs® to full-service restaurants.
