This is the only place in Virac that qualifies as a mall, be it a semi open air mall. It is very small, but so is Virac, so don't expect much of it.
The mall has a 'hypermarket', which is basically a small supermarket with some extra departments on the ground floor, and an appliance shop, furniture shop and clothes shop on the second floor. Just around it are a few eateries, some of them very local, and some chain restaurants.
Behind it, on the other side of the bridge, is an open area with a lot of cafes and bars, a podium and a square where people seem to hang out. I'm not sure if that's part of the Town Center experience, but it's worth checking out.
As said, the size of it all is very little, so don't expect this place to offer an afternoon of shopping. Rather an hour if you need some groceries or some other basics or just something to eat. It's not really a cozy place either and the mian building doesn't have air conditioning, so it gets rather warm there.
It is the only mall in town as of today where you can buy groceries, pharmaceuticals, office supplies, eat out even have your bags or luggages fixed.
We were not able to do much in Catanduanes, much less the island hopping, when a storm hit just as we arrived in San Andres via the Roro (roll on roll off boat). People are kind, courteous and friendly. The Town Center houses the Chicken Deli, which we would always remember as a place that welcomed us inside with warm smiles and did not feel threatened by our Golden Retriever. We would definitely come back.
