The mall is old and tired looking and it shows. Fortunately the washrooms have been upgraded to this decade so it is decent. It is quite sprawling and confusing. It does have anchor tenants at all sides, so remember where you come in from. What I appreciate about this mall is the prices at the food court. I'm not sure if there is an agreement or something, but most of the food operators have at least a couple of items under $10, making it very affordable. Some even sell coffee or tea at under $2. You do see many elderly Asians here, maybe that's why there is cheaper options? They do occupy the tables at the food court chatting for a long period of time. Think of this as another version of Timmies, but with more food options. I was told the T&T here is the largest and it is busy at all hours. The parking area near it is always full. Park elsewhere where it has more empty spots. I like this Asian mini mart (Smart Save) where you can get many food stuff from Asia that are not available in T&T. There is also Langley Farm Market here which has nice produce. There are also Daiso, Dollarama, JYSK, Forum home appliances, etc here. Interesting mix of tenants. Crowded on weekends especially when there are special events in the atrium. It's like a typical mall you will see in Asia, packed with families. read more

If not for the T&T, a couple of the restaurants, and free parking lot, this mall would be a 100% pass. It's outdated and the shops aren't inspiring or interesting for the most part. Since it has its own sky train station stop, I'm just waiting for the mall to be renovated/updated. read more

This review is to show the giant Christmas displays at Lansdowne Centre mall this time around in December. Great photo opportunities if you want to stay warm to take photos. I highly recommend this mall for taking photos in front of the giant displays. And since I was here, I also went to the Bubble Waffle place for drinks and bubble waffle. read more

This mall was a dump in the 90's and its even more of a dump now. I'm pretty sure the only reason people come here is for the big box stores they have, like Best Buy and Winners. Otherwise its just a bunch of bizarre stores that have no customers. Like the stand in the middle of the mall with all the 80's mannequin heads. What are they selling, wigs or hats? I'm too creeped out to ask. read more

Many years here and we loved this place. Toys R Us is still alive here unlike in the US. Full of Asians and strategic location. Cantonese and Mandarin are common while English is minority here. You can pretty much do everything here and it's got pretty much everything you need here. Not the best place to hangout for youngsters, I think. But it is still good to walk around here and meet up with friends at the restaurants at the entrance of this mall, which is what most young people do here. read more

First time come to richmond carnival, compare to PNE it's very pricy, suggest you to get the wrist bands if you love the rides, since it cost at least 4 tokens for each, and you need to spend $45 for 40 tokens. The good thing is that adults don't have to pay if they don't want to join the ride, also the height requirement for kids to do rides is lower compare to PNE, so the little kids it's more fun. read more

Nice shopping center next to No 3 Rd and across from Four Points hotel, this place has shops and restaurants that you will enjoy. There are great Chinese restaurants and shops. Plenty of delicious food. Recommended if you are in Richmond for the first time. read more

This is another mall on the Canada line I like to stop at. It's one stop past Aberdeen if you are on your way to Richmond Brighouse. It is also not a super large mall, but it does have a Target, Winners, Jysk, Home Sense, Best Buy, Toys R Us, Home Outfitters, Future Shop and Sleep Country. It also has many small shops as well as restaurants and food court, and many service shops. I like the Ardenes in this mall. It's more of an outlet as everything there is on sale up to 80% off. They also have accessories 3/10$ 5/10$ and 10/10$ so if your looking for stocking stuffers or inexpensive grab bag items or even secret Santa gifts, it'd a great place to go. I also like the Dollarrama here for battery's Plastic containers, and a variety of other things all priced at under 3$. So if your looking to do some bargain shopping or need housewares or electronics this is a great one stop destination. read more

Old shopping centre. Has to be one of the oldest centres on Vancouver. But developers do have plans to renovate this large piece of property in the future. Lansdowne still has its charm for a shopping mall. But it definitely is aging. Lots of different kinds of shops here and the food court was renovated and updated probably about a decade ago now. Still come here because they've got some major tenants still like Best Buy. A decent mall still. But definitely not up to the standards of most other malls in the city. Worth a visit still before they tear it all down. read more

Lansdowne Centre - Shopping Centers Near Me - Richmond, British Columbia

This mall has been around forever. Many stores have come and gone from here. In the 1980s (back when it was Lansdowne Mall) it was the glory days. The anchor tenant was Safeway (where Best Buy is now), and I remember begging my parents to let me come here to buy computer goodies. In the 1990s they opened up a Computer City (where Future Shop is now). Unfortunately, the opening of the "new" Richmond Centre (they underwent a major renovation) in the mid 90s started a horrible decline in this place. By 2000, this place was pretty much dead. Fortunately, they managed to revise this place with Best Buy, Future Shop, Zellers, and Toys R Us. The mall is quite spacious, and it actually is pretty decent nowadays. With that said, everyone I know that comes here is here either to buy electronics, or eat, which may not be a good thing. However, the restaurants here are quite decent, ranging from the food court to #9 to Kyung Bok Palace to Gingeri. One thing I really like is that I can always take a breather in one of the 2 large circular atrium areas. Sometimes they have shows, or the occasional merry-go-round, but most of the time it's just a nice area to feel like you're outside. Parking is never a problem here. Their lot is freaking HUGE. read more

Seriously, this mall needs to get some good anchor stores in if it wants to stay viable. Either that, or turn the entire place into a giant mall filled only with restaurants. It was by my hotel and with the typical Vancouverite flair for a decent quality of life, closed by the time I checked in to my hotel at 6:30 pm. The next morning, I went to the mall before 10 am and lo and was surprised to find that the hours on Sunday were 11 AM! Can someone offer me a job in Vancouver so I can move there! Life sure is good. At that time, only a sensei and several ladies were around doing Tai Chi with some tassel thing. They invited me but I was no in no mood to fling tassels around; my mission was to secure some of that fabled Richmond dim sum and roamed around, going back to the then mostly empty Gingeri Restaurant. I wandered around the space for a quick browse after having dim sum at Gingeri, saw that some gaming exhibit had been set up, attracting quite a crowd. Apart from that, life doesn't seem to exist in this mall. I can't even remember most of the smaller retailers and only remember Best Buy because I considered exiting through it. The high point of this mall for me was dim sum at Gingeri, which got quite busy at 10:30 Am and the Langley Market, which has fresh produce, cakes and all sorts of Asian groceries. It's nice to be able to get fresh fruit when on the road. But the mall model here needs a serious makeover as far as stores to attract people. Landsdowne seems to be a place of huge dollar stores and restaurants. Richmond station has the higher end malls and Aberdeen has the huge supermarkets Yaohan and H Mart. So maybe this mall needs some larger fashion discounters. Either that, or build some museum or garden on the premises. There is nothing sadder than an empty mall on a weekend. read more

Review is on the food court staff; well, one in particular. There were no other tables vacant for a group of 4, except for the one for we found which needed a good wipe down. My friend politely asked the lady who was cleaning the food trays for a towel so we could do it ourselves but she outright IGNORED her. Just asking for a towel so we can help you do your job, lady, nothing more. read more

It is one of those malls that you really scratch your head and say, wow, your still standing, and your still here and it is so dead in here! If your coming to Lansdowne you must have some mission to come here, shopping for electronics? (Future Shop and Best Buy are here, a walk away from eachother!) Coming for some hot yoga? Throwing your kids at Toys R Us, coming here after hours cause you need booze and are hitting up the Liquor Depot? This is really a desination place, because there really is nothing this mall can offer compared to the one up the block (Richmond Centre). There's still always the No.9 after the club's, or the Hot Pot joint on the other side of the mall, but they are all 'one off's'. With the state of this mall as it is it makes you wonder if they should just turn this one back to a horse track (what it used to be, which explains the logo of the place!). I don't think anything can really bring this mall back to life, as the good places will always choose Richmond Centre to do business than here, it's just depressing knowing that this used to be the spot... way back when. read more

Extra star for nostalgic reasons, but other than the big anchors there, if you can even call Z that, there's no purpose to come here...unless you've got a family to check out Toys r Us. Plus maybe if you want to avoid the mayhem at Rmd Centre, sure, it's got good Asian bakery for sure, a handful of decent restos, but like other yelpers here, not a place to hang or to be seen or to see! Parking sucks in front of the anchors, but for ease of entrance/exit, i take the side road where Kwantlen College is, saves time even if you have to go thru all the extra speed bumps. Otherwise, Hazelbridge coming thru Alderbridge, you'll miss several lights for sure if you coming from Aberdeen lol. read more

The Landsdowne Mall has become a place of solitude and emptiness. I love their food court, but that's really about it. The place is a ghost town during various times during the day and it could be due to the fact most of the stores are mediocre and don't exude variety outside of subpar Asian stores, interior design, and made-for-TV type places. It is a shame too because Lansdowne is massive and has a lot of potential due to its location. Aside from the food court and spacious parking lot, there isn't much going on here. It is only a matter of time before they pack up and close down, but I can only hope a major renovation is coming soon. read more

Lansdowne Mall has been super quiet for almost 2 decades now.. Only when they opened T&T Supermarket last year made this mall livelier. It's also the busiest store out of the whole mall. There's a Dollar Store, Asian clothing stores, NCIX, but Best Buy and T&T are the best stores of the mall. There are a few Asian restaurants here like #9 and that one is open 24hrs. #9 can be super busy at night, though. They're tearing this place down in 6 years for a redevelopment and replace this area with mid-rise towers. Looking forward to the new hood. read more

Landsdowne Centre is the oldest shopping centre in Richmond? May be or may be not.. it built since 1977.. that's why look so old and no major renovation in the mall. It has a lot of big franchise stores there such as Best Buy, Future Shop, Home Hardware, Home Outfitters, Home Sense/Winners, JYSK, Toys "R" Us, and Zellers. I come here for hot yoga class at Bikram Yoga regularly. I will stop and glance at Showcase store sometime coz I find something very interesting. read more

For some reason, I classified this mall to be an Asian Mall. I find it ridiculous with the mall design layout. I get the idea that a good mall design is to try to trap its customer so they will shop more. But this mall is so confusing. It has many main center or should I call them circles or connector points. You just ended up frustrated and lost. It removes the mood of really going to shop but then again the stores are not great here. They have the Langley Market which I think is the most busiest store in the mall. Other then that, the mall can be classified as a bit dead. There are on the other hand many parking spaces. You don't have to go in circles looking for a place to park. Isn't that awesome. Would I come back again. I only come when I have something I need. read more

Was shopping at a cell accessories store there called E xcessories. Lady was very rude and before I finish saying I'll think about it, she put it away and started to walk off. If you want better pricing on cellphone accessories please go shop at Ali Express. Their price is a fractions of what this place sells it for. read more

I remember at one point in the late 90's/early 2000's, this mall was D-E-A-D...mind you this was shortly after Eaton's closed, so there was no Zellers, no Future Shop, no Home Sense, nothing, just Safeway. Nowadays, it actually looks like the majority of the storefronts are occupied (maybe 80-85%)! Although Target and Home Sense have both shut down, the mall does have other big box stores, such as Best Buy, Winners, Jysk, and an up and coming T&T Supermarket! There's this new Chinese store called "Best Department Store" too but...well I'll leave that for you to discover on your own. The mall has some other useful niche stores as well, such as Canada Computers (which I THINK is a former NCIX), Broadway Camera, a couple of phone/laptop battery places, Langley Farm Market, a Purdy's Chocolates, and one of the few ICBC locations open on a weekend for Driver Licensing. The food court is actually pretty diverse. My top picks are Taco Luis and the nearby Bubble Tea Shop, Fair Bee. Fun fact, the Vietnamese place in the food court is owned by the same guy who runs Taco Luis, who also owns the Taco Luis at Oakridge. You can sometimes catch him running between the two stalls lol. Overall, used to dislike the mall, but it's kind of growing on me. read more

This mall has a terrible outdated design. It is built like an octopus and is designed like a maze. Whoever designed this mall layout should be fired. You have to walk long circles to get to certain stores. Richmond Center is by far the superior mall in Richmond. Lansdowne Centre is tired and old looking, and the stores are also very outdated, catering to an older generation. The fashion retail stores here are not appealing. There's not much selection in the tiny foodcourt either. If you are on Wind mobile, your data plan will lose reception in this mall. I just come here only for Fair Bee bubbletea and Home Sense. Target closed out at this mall, and I wouldn't be surprised if Best Buy was next to fold in the near future. The only venue that is consistently busy in this dead mall is a fruit market there (I think it's called Kin's Farm Market). Like Shila mentioned in the review below mine, there's nothing much to see here. Do yourself a favor and go to Richmond Centre instead. read more

Lansdowne Centre - For such a huge mall, this shopping centre is so quiet, even on weekends. - Shopping Centers Near Me - Richmond, British Columbia

Ok, there is nothing wrong with the mall except for the fact that it is usually deserted. I like it honestly, there are really good deals (and you can bargain). It's small but there are many services and shops, everything you could ask for pretty much. There's also lots of big stores such as Target, Best Buy etc. All the store staffs are nice and care because chances are you are the only customer in their store. They also have a Wifi Lounge which is cool and a nice place to chill and watch TV or whatever. The foodcourt is quiet so you can grab a bit or hit the books or paperwork. Customer service is nice and they have lots of tourist info and all the good stuff to be expected. If you like quiet shopping and don't mind a little bit of a smaller-asian-mall feel you might want to check Lansdowne out. read more

No flowery, rosey reviews from me. This mall was the "happening" mall decades ago. Since then, it's gone to shits. It's old, but that's ok. However, the business office who runs the mall seemingly is too cheap to upgrade the mall. I imagine the rent is expensive especially now since the Skytrain is close by. I feel bad for the retailers. The mall simply doesn't get much traffic. The mall feels like a small corner strip mall. Businesses (most do not stand out) are typically empty with the exception of Future Shop, Best Buy, Winners, and Langley Farms. Even then, with the exception of the latter, the big box stores are rarely ever busy. The meager Christmas (Santa's photobooth) is horribly pathetic. It's ridiculously lame. It's beyond shocking. The Santa they got for 2014 is a tall bearded stickman with a small pillow as his belly. Is he some long distance runner that he can stay so skinny at that age? It's mind-boggling. My guess is he's probably one of the Lansdowne Mall's shareholders. Hopefully the mall will be imploded so condos and townhouses can be built which should be affordable. Now, If they did a colossal Santa's village, like they had decades ago, the mall would be busy...at least for the Christmas season. If you can't be the best in terms of shops and selection, at least be the best at something else like Santa's village. Failing that, at least make the mall attractive, inviting, and appealing. The several big box stores (like Target and Homesense which most people do not shop due to poor service or lousy prices) haven't revitalized the mall at all. The mall needs other stores like those in Metrotown. It's too bad they done away with the large Safeway store that was another favorite of people shopping in the mall. For me, I don't like a crowded mall, but I don't like to shop in an empty mall either. It's like all mankind has perished and only the survivors are taking refuge in the mall. That's what Lansdowne Mall feels like to me. All and all, this mall is quite pitiful. It occasionally brings memories of the good old days when the mall was full of people, lots of selection, and the food court was stellar. Now, it's just another place to take a nap away from home, nothing more. I suggest heading to Richmond Centre (old Richmond Square) or even to Metrotown if you must. You will find deals there, sadly, and not unexpectedly considering everything, you'll be hard pressed to find any deals at Lansdowne Mall. read more

I love Landsdowne. It's conveniently located across from the Lansdowne skytrain station. For a tiny mall, Landsdowne has alot to offer! Their food court has hidden gems like R&H Chinese Food, Taco Luis, and Let's Roll. They have chain storeslike Best Buy, Target, Homesense, Dollarama for your shopping needs. There are also a few restuarants, the ever popular No.9 (for late night eats hehe), Tropika, Kyung Bok Palace! They even have a Anna's Cake House and a Kin's Farm Market! I prefer Landsdowne to Richmond Centre any day. read more

Dying mall, it's pretty much a ghost town. Only thing that keeps me coming back are the big chain stores (Dollarama, Best Buy, Home Sense, T&T, etc), R&H Chinese food (in food court that has Shanghai Juicy Dumplings), Toku and Earls. Thank god they're rebuilding this area. read more

Good Ol' Lansdowne Mall seems to be on the upswing lately, especially now that Target has opened here. What I like about the Mall: never a problem parking here. Access to the Canada Line is easy, just a 3 minute walk. 2 big electronics stores (Best Buy & Future Shop, although I can't see them both staying in business here almost side by side). What I don't like: outside the big box stores, much of the rest of the mall still seems to be struggling. There are too many small, one of a kind shops that seem sparsely stocked with hardly anyone in them. Food Court: seems to be a fairly high turnover rate here - always some place closed up, with another just opened. The best spots are still Curry Express and the Pizza place. The Thai food stall used to be good, but the last meal we had there was a-w-f-u-l. For a good lunch or dinner at the mall, I'd say Kyung Bok Palace (Korean) is the best. read more

i think the only thing keeping this mall afloat is Future Shop, Best Buy, Home outfitters, Winners, Zellers, Toys R Us and No 9.... Other than that this mall is "snorsvllle" Yes it has a pretty good food court, home of Taco Luis (one of my favorite taco joints!!) and it has a pretty nice produce market as well (Langley Farm Market) selling fresh meats as well. But the rest of the stores are either old, or has out of business signs.. oh well.. its still a cool mall to me. i grew up here so i still feel a little nostalgic when i visit with my family.. Oh and another reason why i like coming here is the "Showcase" Store. its got all of the "as seen on tv" junk that you... you guessed it.... "SEE ON TV" anyone want a "ronco food dehydrator? or a magic bullet? ;) read more

This mall had seen it's better day back in the 80's. Came here for lunch and there was plenty of parking at the mall. I use to look forward to come to this mall when I was younger. But with the building of Richmond Center and other malls like Aberdeen. I don't usually stop by this mall. There are still a few places to shop at this mall like Home Sense. Looking forward to the opening of Target in the near future. I just hope it helps revitalizes Lansdowne. Sure miss it when it was the go to shopping mall back in the day. Sigh. read more

This mall has nothing, walk around forever and find nothing really interesting I grew up at this mall and it was much more interesting when I was a kid, the stores are more budget like and the hallways need a major renovation to make it modern and worth visiting never busy lots of parking read more

I think Lansdowne gets a bit of a bad rep. It's not really that bad. Sure, it might be run down as much as say, Detroit, but there are still some good things here. Best Buy and Future Shop are here. Hell, this Best Buy didn't even get closed. They have a Home Outfitters and a Home Sense. I think there are still a few restaurants still in business, plus the food court. Lansdowne is also lacking in teenagers. I imagine it's just not cool enough for them. That's a plus in my books. read more

This is a good mall to shop at if you're more laid back and don't want to deal with the noisy crowds at Oakridge or Metrotown. There are still dozens of shops along with a few big box stores. Always great to have sea of parking spaces to choose from. Heard on the news it'll be condos in 10 years. Will be sorry to see it go. There's Richmond Centre across the street though. read more

I only ever find myself coming to Lansdowne Centre to go to two specific stores: -New Stitch Tailoring (http://www.yelp.ca/biz/new-stitch-tailoring-richmond) -NCIX [be sure to check that the item you want is in stock first] (http://www.yelp.ca/biz/ncix-richmond-12) I used to shop at Ming Wo (http://www.yelp.ca/biz/ming-wo-richmond) as well before it closed. While I don't go out of my way to go to Lansdowne's food court, I do enjoy R & H Chinese Food (http://www.yelp.ca/biz/r-and-h-chinese-food-richmond) and Taco Luis (http://www.yelp.ca/biz/taco-luis-richmond) if I'm already there. Target and Future Shop are gone. It's too bad that Lansdowne can't seem to attract better stores. It has ample parking and is conveniently transit accessible. Oh well, it'll get bulldozed eventually (http://www.richmond-news.com/news/big-changes-targeted-for-lansdowne-centre-1.1748043). read more

Plenty of free parking at Lansdowne Centre. Although Lansdowne Centre doesn't have the higher tier businesses as Richmond Centre but it is my favorite mall in Richmond. Why? I like the food court at Lansdowne mall. My only gripe is the person responsible for opening the doors in the morning. The food court opens early for breakfast but the mall doors are locked. Someone slept in???? This has happened twice to me. read more

This was the only shopping mall that I visited in Richmond area. It was big enough with zellers,dollar store, food court, ample of parking place, cloth stores, jewellery stores, furniture shop etc. Place was clean and not over crowded. Food court was decent too. This also has a best buy attached to it and walkable to ctrain station and public transit bus stop. Overall , not a bad place to try. Yelp's 30 day challenge - 8/30. read more

Landsdowne is a quiet mall, with only a selected few stores to shop at. If it weren't for large stores such as Future Shop, Home Outfitters, Winners, Zellers, Toys R Us and Langley Farm Market. I'm not sure if this mall would still be alive. There are mostly Asian type stores and the older interior has not changed much over the years. On the plus side, it is conveniently located across Kwantlen Polytechnic University, where students can just walk over, and nearby a Canada Line station. The food court is decent and I love their spacious parking lot :) read more

Okay so this is not the most appealing mall and I wouldn't go out of my way to attend the stores, however, if you're in the area it's not all that bad. They have a best buy, Kins, Target, Toys R Us, Winners etc. If you're in Richmond than this is the place otherwise just go to Metrotown. Seriously there is really nothing here folks....move along. read more

I visited the Lansdowne Centre mall several times. While it lacks some of the premium retail stores, it has a solid offering of staple stores that I visit from time to time. The mall is never excessively busy and parking is a breeze thanks to the massive parking lot. read more

Pros -very empty and rarely crowded -has a Target opening there soon, Future Shop, Best Buy, Payless, Toys R'Us, Ardenes (so there are a few popular stores) -food court is AWESOME. Honestly, much better food court than Richmond Centre or Aberdeen. The prices are a lot lower too! Cons -most of the stores are obscure family-run businesses -because it's usually deserted there is a weird ambiance about the place -most of the people hanging around here are senior citizens (not exactly the type of mall that teenage girls hang out in) All in all, it's a fantastic place to walk around in and browse. There are a lot of coffee shops and of course the fantastic food court. For your electronics or toy needs check this place out. read more

This place is crap!! Why Target would even THINK about opening a store here is beyond me. Maybe they think it will start bringing business to this mall.
