Deerbrook Mall is a regional mall in Deerfield, Illinois Located on 130 acres (0.53 km2) its five current anchor stores are Best Buy, Sports Authority, TJ Maxx, Jewel Osco, Office Max, and Bed Bath and Beyond. Former anchors include The Great Indoors, which closed after just one year in business and remains vacant.

Venture, the now defunct retail chain was ten year tenant in the mall. It closed its door and moved out in January 1989. Other stores no longer in the mall were Service Merchandise, Spiegel, and Loomcraft. Marshalls used to occupy the space now used by TJ Maxx.

In 1998, Lend Lease Real Estate Investments bought the mall from an anonymous Northfield bases company.

Deerbrook Mall used to house a four (4) auditorium movie theater. The theater opened in the mid-1970s as a twin. Two auditoriums were added in the 1980s. The small quaint but popular theater dimmed its lights for the last time in 2001. It was operated by General Cinema. Today it remains closed and shuttered, with black plastic over the internal windows. The marquee is still attached to the wall and the General Cinema sign still hangs outside overlooking a parking lot which now functions as the ingress and egress for trucks delivering merchandise to Best Buy.

It is located on Waukegan Road, between the Edens Spur and Lake Cook Road.
