One Square in Petaling Jaya
If you like lingering at malls that don’t feel like malls – hubs that gather good grub, like Kuala Lumpur’s buzzy Steppes – here’s a new place to stake out: One Square. The lifestyle hub is now open in Petaling Jaya, with popular cafes, dessert haunts, and Bandar Utama’s first Village Grocer.
Here’s everything that you need to know about it:
Where is One Square?
One Square is located across the street from 1 Powerhouse and M World Hotel, sitting in PJ’s Bandar Utama township alongside other prominent landmarks like 1 Utama Shopping Centre, One World Hotel, 1 First Avenue, and 8 First Avenue.
What’s open at One Square?
Food is always the subject of Malaysians’ conversations, and One Square doesn’t skimp on the options. While a bulk of its space is dedicated to event and chill spaces, find retail shops focusing on food, wellness, and essentials tucked within the new neighbourhood hub.
Look forward to shopping for essentials at the Village Grocer, the grocery chain’s first outlet in Bandar Utama, and at the AA Pharmacy located in the One Square compound but outside in a standalone building. Other essentials offered here are Pilates sessions from The Flow Studio and manicures at Suga Nails.
On the food front, popular eateries have now opened outlets at One Square, including Yellow Brick Road, Wolfgang’s by Wolf & Turtle Coffee, Tea Garden, Bengbeng Sourdough, and IJO.Matcha Bar.
Upcoming shops set to open sometime between November and December 2026 are Contour, EM’S Cookies, Guru Guru, Mama Kim – Wellness Kitchen, Tap Room, Ayam Gepuk Hut, and Fresh D.
How to get to One Square?
For those taking the MRT, cross the covered bridge towards the LRT Bandar Utama station. From here, both MRT and LRT users can cross another covered pedestrian bridge towards M World Hotel, followed by one more pedestrian bridge.
You will then find a covered walkway that leads directly to One Square. It’s about a 10-minute walk from the train stations to the lifestyle hub.
Vehicles have two ways to enter One Square, from First Avenue Road and Dataran Bandar Utama, and 210 on-site parking bays to make the most of.

Anyone looking for a mall that’s not like a mall can take their upcoming weekend hangouts to One Square. It has matcha, fresh bakes, and local dishes to keep you company.
