I like the mall feels newish but I dislike the stairs going up to the plaza area from Kingsway. The sign for the elevator could be better. From Kingsway, it is hard to know what shops are up on the plaza. Either the directory board is not visible or I am blind. So I was looking for Shopper Drug Mart where Canada Post is located. I never noticed Shopper was there despite walking along Kingsway many times. I did not want to deal with the stairs and did not see the elevator. I also was not sure if it would get to Shopper. In the end I walked along the road and went round to the back and finally to the plaza where I found Shopper, and then discovered yes, the elevator did get to the same level. Duh. Other than this, I like that Starbucks is here and Cora too.

Front stairs~

3 stars only because there is a Walmart here, plus a Save-On Food…read more This is a sad mall with limited tenants. There are several stores which are available for lease. I used to like this mall back in the 1990s when it was more vibrant than now. Like what some Yelpers reviewed, you do see many seniors in this mall, with walkers, canes and wheelchairs.Maybe New Westminster has a higher senior demographic now. In any case, the saving grace for this mall is truly Walmart and Save-On Food. Ardene outlet store with its deep discount of up to 70% off is also a draw. The food court is also sad, you are better off dining outside. The upper level seemed to be mostly medical clinics. I hope there will be more interesting tenants setting up shop here in the future. For now, I come here mostly for Walmart.

When I first-discovered this Centre it was actually quite vibrant, at least on the ground level…read morefloor, with a wall-to-wall rather decent selection of stores, shops, and food court. An axe seemed to fall a couple of years ago, when Zellers, and many other offerings left, and the selection of 'what' remained really collapsed. I have definitely noted some shopping improvements since then, especially with additions of Wal-Mart (occupying the vacated Zeller's space), the large Shopper's Drug and Dollarama stores, and the Save On Foods supermarket coming in to occupy a more recent departure, and thankfully, the continued presence of Kin's Farm Market. For me though, the Centre has basically become an out-of-the-weather place to go for a walk and browse when in the area, and possibly catch a breakfast sandwich or burger at A&W in the Food Court, or couple of fresh bananas at Kin's, to enjoy during my walkabout. It's definitely not one of my places to do any serious shopping -- a couple of the "feature attractions", because of their inflated prices (imo), do not catch my shopping attention when they are located 'anywhere', and Wal-Mart's morning opening time is too late for my personal shopping convenience. It's nice to see 'West Coast Medical Imaging' located on the upper floor. I have used one their facilities elsewhere, and have always respected the quality of service I mI provided. I miss too much of what Royal City Centre used to have and offer, to rate it any higher in its present state.

And over these years, the Centre has become a favourite place to drop into for some browsing and shopping, especially before my morning appointments. At street level, there's a McDonalds restaurant (handy for a breakfast snack if/when the mood catches me), and Care Point Medical Centre at the lower end, and a TD Canada Trust, Starbucks, and London Drugs (opens at 8 am - yeah!!) at the upper end, with Yanni's Greek Restaurant, a barber shop, and a selection of other shops at each end, and in-between. The New West office of the Retina Surgical Associates is located on the second floor of the upper end (have been there, done that a couple of times). And a big plus, there are two, good-sized levels of under cover, no-charge parking -- great when arriving by personal vehicle, and requiring sufficient parking time to cover longer medical appointment, and such. A Buy-Low Foods supermarket used to be located at the lower end of the Mall, but I recently read on the internet it has now permanently closed. No particular loss for me, I always found offerings at that store very over-priced, and seldom purchased anything there. But sure hope for the sake of local shoppers, that something moves into the location before too long, to help bolster their food shopping potentials in the area. A stop into the Westminster Centre has become a significant and fun part of my travel routines to New West, especially when heading there for my eye, and related medical appointments.

A very quiet mall most of the time, especially on weekends…read more There is nothing much here and you will only come here for specific businesses located here. It is not a shopping or eating place. The upper level seemed to be filled with kids' activities and a CPA office. Plus the washroom which is clean and spacious. Inside the mall, you get a mini food court with only 2 stalls - Korean run burger place (IT Char which is excellent!) and a Japanese sushi place (Woomi - never tried), a music school, salon, dollar store, liquor store, cobbler, game area, fresh produce and others. Outside on the strip mall section, there are Starbucks, Pizza Hut, pho place, booster juice, sally beauty supply, nail salon, etc with Safeway as the anchor tenant. Parking lot outside is big with plenty of spots. Be careful to park at the 2 hour side as they are very diligent in checking the 30 mins only section. Many have gotten tickets there. I guess it is a good thing this is quite a boring mall as it makes running errands or grabbing a bite easy here. Less wait and no worry about parking. McDonald's is across the road and Shell has station is at the corner.

Look up...way up! This mall looks almost bizarrely deserted in a way but some stores are worth the…read moretrip and the ceiling is incredible. If you are out and about, use the washrooms on the 2nd floor (to the left of the stairs or take the elevator) they are gorgeous and spacious. I adore the pet food store with a slant on healthy eating and raw food. The produce store is full of vibrant stock and pre-cut stir fry packages that are priced well. The Nail Salon (Chi Nails) is A+. There is also a Liquor Store, Safeway, Sally Beauty Supply, Starbucks, Subway, Pizza Hut & a Fish and Chips Place.
