One of my favorite new additions to this shopping center is Daiso, which specializes in Japanese household goods. Upon stepping into this shop for the first time, I was shocked at the variety and uniqueness of all the supplies they have available for customers.

Shoppes by The Lakes
If you live near The Lakes Community on the East side of Menifee, you probably already know this shopping center very well, but for those who’ve just moved to the area or are visiting, here is the scoop on what is available near you.
For starters, there are a few of the usual fast-food joints (Starbucks and McDonald’s), but here at The Menifee Experience, we like to focus on local shops as much as possible. In this case, consider giving this local gem a try, it’s called Archibal’s Drive-Thru. This family restaurant offers fresh-cooked breakfast, lunch, and dinner bites for anybody who loves food and sports.
Seasonally, Tom’s Adventures Pumpkin Patch & Christmas Trees will pop up next to Archibald’s Drive-Thru, where kids can jump on bounce houses, enjoy the nice weather, and pick out their seasonal items fresh from the farm.
Stater Bros Markets has a location on this street as well, so you can also shop for your groceries too! Stater Bros is a Southern California company founded in 1936 and offers weekly deals on groceries as well as fresh organic produce from local farms. Neighboring Staters is a self-serve frozen yogurt shop named Blitzers, and Zesty Shawarma (top-rated), which serves delicious grilled Mediterranean dishes, salad, and rice bowls.
Right down the street from The Shoppes at The Lakes is a Menifee Historical Monument to the Kirkpatrick Family, located right outside Callie Kirkpatrick Elementary. You can learn more about the Kirkpatricks and why they are an important part of Menifee’s History by watching the video linked below.

Sun City Plaza (Corner of Newport & Murrieta Rd)
Overview:
Another shopping center located on the West side of Menifee is known as Sun City Plaza. This shopping center sits on the second busiest crossroads in our city, Newport and Murrieta Road. Here you’ll find another Stater Bros Market, Walgreens Pharmacy, and a great local gym named Fitness 19.
Along the side parking lot of Staters is Earthwize Recycling, a small recycling spot for plastics and cans you need to get rid of. In California, you do receive payment for recycling bottles and cans, it’s in the perfect spot to take care of this errand on your way to the store.
A few local sweets & treats are hidden in this parking lot as well, but you have to know where to look. Don’t worry we’ve already found them and we are not gatekeeping anything from our Menifee Neighbors.
Donut Star, for example, is one of the best donut shops I’ve ever tried! And I’ve lived all over the United States, so I can say I’ve tasted a lot of different donuts, but Donut Star takes the cake in terms of flavor, freshness, and quality of food. It’s no wonder they are top reviewed on Yelp and Google for their donuts and coffee.
Nutrition Elevated Menifee is another great locally owned shop that is health-focused and delicious! The main ingredient for all of their shakes and teas is Herbalife Nutrition Powders and Supplements. The owner is very friendly, and the drinks are amazing. It takes healthy food to the next level and has become a staple for my household when we are out and need a quick energy boost.
Across the street from Stater Bros Market sits a little shopping center called Newport Crossing, with a few more shops we think are worth mentioning. For dining, you have Submarina Sandwich Shop, IHOP Breakfast, Don Mere’s Restaurant, and Krak Boba. Shopping includes Victra (Verizon Retailer), UPS, The Pilates Co. Menifee, Great Clips, and The Extra Mile gas station.
Address: 26100 Newport Rd A2, Sun City, CA 92584
