Driving and parking is a challenge. 300 + businesses. 11 restaurants & bars. 3 breweries/distilleries. 60 room hotel. Art, culture, water front, water taxis. And of course, the Public Market was crazy busy. Oh, when eating outside, be alert of the seagulls, birds, etc. 50+ businesses just in this market. Ambiance - Amazing history, from a waste land to the thriving business it is today!! Entertainment; see pictures or their websites. Service - Good. Price - Tourist prices, but still very reasonable. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success since the 1970s. We became customers and regulars since the 1990s.

Granville Island is one of those touristy places that's worth visiting a few times to get…read moreeverything in. The Public Market is definitely its heart and reminded me of the markets in Spain. There's so much to browse and stimulate the senses, from fresh seafood and grass-fed meats to local cheeses, pastries, fresh fruits and vegetables, and prepared food. Whether you're craving pizza, a hot dog, or something more international, there's plenty to choose from and, of course, beer and wine. Lee's Donuts and Oyama Sausage are two well-known stops, but part of the charm is wandering around and seeing what catches your eye. Beyond the market, there are cozy independent artisan studios and specialty shops, with opportunities to watch glassblowers, potters, and weavers at work. Dining options range from small mom-and-pop eateries to upscale restaurants. It's a fun place to spend a few hours browsing, eating, and exploring. If time allows, take a water taxi across False Creek. It's $4.50 CAD/person and gives you a nice perspective of the city from the water. Happy Travels!

There are lots of stores here. It feels upscale and contemporary in design with 3 floors to explore.read more

This mall is conveniently located in downtown Vancouver and offers a wide variety of shops with…read moregoods at different price points. I visited during my trip and found plenty of options to suit almost any shopper or budget. That said, I was disappointed that none of the stores carried traditional relaxed or straight-fit jeans--every option seemed to be barrel or loose fit, which wasn't what I was looking for. As a result, I left without making a purchase, though I still enjoyed browsing the stores and checking out their merchandise.

You'll find a number of items, food and other items that are very Canada specific, such as Maple syrup, Maple tea, and other maple-related snacks. We also found it hard to find a shop where you can find clothing that lasts and is very comfortable. We picked up a couple fleece and shirts here and they survived the wash and are still comfortable weeks later, and they were such a good price, nearly half of what you'd expect. The deals on standard keychains and magnets were also very good so we bought dozens.

Some highlights: 1. Kirin Seafood Restaurant. Excellent Chinese seafood. FOOD court. Starbucks. Nom nom galore. 2. Safeway, Kin's market. All your grocery needs 3.

So that's always a bonus. Whatever you need, you'll probably find it at this shopping mall.

Yelp down... Kicked me out and "closed" my account?!?! Why…read moredoes Yelp make it so hard for me to support...? Glad I was able to fix it this evening. Quality/Quantity - One of my buddies favorite malls and he wanted to show it off. Well his favorite part of the mall was the food court, where we all ended up having lunch. He is a regular here and loves their food court, Urban eatery. See my few pictures. And the lunch was so good, see pictures. I ate at Cazba and got the Gheimeh Tachin - A crispy bowl of rice with meat. My buddy got Chinese?!?! Guess he still craves Chinese, and he currently lives in SF and is NOT Chinese; he is not even Asian. Then my wife and I did excessive shopping. See the few photos I took. I was too upset with Yelp to take pictures! Has the usual local brands I support - Canada Goose, Lululemon, Aritzia, Roots etc. Ambiance - 108+ businesses. 14+ food options. Events - See their website. Open 7 days a week; see individual businesses for hours. From 10am to 7pm, 8pm, or 9pm. See their website. Paid parking; see their website for costs. We walked from the house. Service - Overall good. But it also depends on what you do, buy, eat, or drink. Service is good. Everywhere we went. Especially Canada Goose and Lululemon! Price - Reasonable. The US $ is currently very strong; $1US = 1.40 CAD. $18CAD, $13US for our lunch at Cazba. Inexpensive for what we got, thank you. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success.

Mall was bright but nothing special…read more Conveniently located, in the downtown of Vancouver. Just the heart of everything. All the shops you need are there: Lululemon, Pink, Norstrom, food court. Just a regular store. Just wish Nike is inside too (maybe a small store in additional to the Robson Street location). Value is good for some stores, reasonable for others, food court seems pricey. Every store customer service was good. I would come again if I am around the vicinity.

It's set up nicely, it's clean, and organized well. My favourite part though, is that they have lots of gorgeous older pieces. You can tell that each piece is hand picked for the shop. So glad I finally stopped by!

There was live music in the middle of the square where there was outdoor seating. We enjoyed a box of donuts while we figured out a brunch game plan. This gem is a must when you're in town.

The Granville Island Public Market is a large walkable market with lots of outdoor space as well as…read moreindoor spaces. With it being so popular, it can get a bit crowded regarding people and parking. It's a common spot to visit and I can definitely see why! There are a ton of food options, small shops, drinks, and random entertainment. While walking through, we saw a magician and an acoustic guitar performer. A lot of the shops we stopped at had quick and efficient service, they must be used to the crowds. My only regret was not being able to fit all of the different foods I wanted to try! If you're visiting with a small party or have a small appetite, definitely look up the different options prior to selecting something. (:

It was sunny and not too hot, while I was walking along the cobblestone pathways. It made the experience feel much more inviting than a typical indoor mall. I like the way you could walk into their food businesses just like an individual store-no crowded food court with tables squished together! Clean washrooms, for some it may be a hassle to go upstairs but elevators are available. A public light rail stop and pay to use EV charging stations are there for your convenience. I had good customer service while purchasing earrings from Oak and Fort and clothes from the Gap and Old Navy. Not screaming deals but they fit the bill for what I was looking for.

See other reviews for pictures…read more Quality/Quantity - Came here two days straight. The first day was on the way to our friend's place and we got to Canada early and had time to kill. But then my wife (and I) started shopping and ran out of time, lol. The second day was to only visit The Harry Rosen store, an upscale men's store which was referred to us. Ambiance - A good size location. An outdoor outlet mall. 82+ businesses. Plenty of parking. Service - Good, I did more shopping than I typically do. But I wanted to support local. Price - US $$ is strong on this trip, so inexpensive. $1 = 1.40 CAD. But it also depends on what you do, buy, eat, or drink.
