My daughter and I came here the other day to explore, and although this was a smaller-scale mall compared to others, it still packs a punch, and we were impressed. There are larger, anchors stores like The Bay (which we love!) and Safeway and Crate & Barrel, a nice food court, and lots of designer, higher-end shops inside (ex, Tiffany's, Birks, Lululemon, Michael Kors, DKNY, Armani Exchange, Coach, L'Occitane, Aveda, and tons more). I liked how immaculate the mall was, and how the massive sky light brings in so much natural light. I must add, too, how beautiful and well-appointed the women's bathroom is! Sure, you have to walk down some narrow corridors to get there, but the facility really was swanky and pretty! read more

Got a 90 dollar parking fine. Concord pacific states that their is signage posted and it is a yellow zone. I have asked for clarification but they just repeat that I parking in a restricted yellow zone. read more

Mall is pretty dead during the coronavirus scare. Went for a nice walk in the parkade and they've actually torn down half of it. Pretty cool looking at that giant hole in the ground. There's also a brand new food court under construction in this part of the mall I didn't even know existed. It's close to where the medical towers are. Some stores are open inside the mall but they're the minority. Hopefully this virus goes away soon. read more

It is pretty sad that due to the construction or maybe other reasons, the few shops which drew me to Oakridge Mall have closed or are closing. Soon, I will not see a reason to even pop by for a visit. I hope the mall management will do something about the mix of retailers in the center. The construction has also made parking a nightmare. read more

Who even shops at Oakridge anymore? Theres nothing left! I used to come here about 10 years ago, when they actually had a variety of stores to choose from. Now its a complete ghost town, they don't even have a food court anymore. I'd honestly rather shop at ghetto Kingsgate mall! All thats remaining at Oakridge are a few crappy high end stores. What a complete waste of space. read more

Oakridge Park - The only cool thing left at Oakridge Mall - Shopping Centers Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

The mall is starting to look like a ghost town as there were quite a few stores and restaurants in the food court that were gone. The mall itself is under going a major renovation in the next few years. A friend told me he wanted to pickup groceries at Safeway last week but found many of the shelves empty as they're getting prepared to move. Even Starbucks had a make shift location inside Safeway. There are several high end stores here. With the renovations, they are promoting it as 'reinventing' but it'll need more of reviving, if the stores are going to survive. Sad for those that are still there if business is slow. Tip: if you have to come to this mall by car, the entrance is off Cambie street and 41st. The skytrain station is conveniently located near the mall that's in a corridor. It's good that you avoid being outside especially if the weather is wet and cold out. read more

This mall is a bit sad. I know its tailor to older people and as well the things they sell are higher branded. I used to live near by and love to come here so I have seen the changes of the mall from what was kids friendly, family friendly to all age friendly to now only tailored to senior. For some reason, I feel that the mall is smaller than what it was before. My sister said its the same probably because I am bigger. Well I used to have a great time with the wishing fountain in the center of the mall and now they covered the wishing fountain and its more like a display item. No more wishing (guess they want people to be realistic)! There is a pro to this mall is the fact that its close to a skytrain. This is a plus for people who don't want to drive. read more

Located on the West 41st and Cambie St. This mall is easy to get to. Easy to drive to with ample parking. Easy to bus to as well. The skytrain station is right outside the door on 41st and Cambie Many retail shops to peruse through. They have a little bit of everything. There are also offices for medical services, post office, banking etc. read more

Just a heads up. The Oakridge Mall is just a large hole in the ground now. Its been demolished and the new development won't be complete for another two years. Pity. read more

I can't wait to see for what this mall (soon to be Oakridge Park) will bring in store for my community. I live around the mall's area and it is exciting to see all the buildings and stores starting to come up! I definitely recommend exploring this park after it is completed around 2025. These towers will be one of the tallest buildings in Vancouver! read more

The mall is not particularly large but it has a decent selection of stores. There is a farmer's market/produce market as well as fish market on the side of the mall next to the public library. There is a sit down chinese restaurant as well as a decent chinese bakery. The "clientele" at this mall is shall we say "well mannered." As usual, you should google the store directory of the mall and check to see if the stores there are actually of interest to you before you decide whether or not you want to go there. Overall, it's a nice well maintained mall and if the expansion plans are to be believed this place will really be amazing in a a few years. read more

Aging mall still offers customers a good experience. I've been coming to Oakridge for over almost 40 years, and it is NOT aging gracefully. Cracking/fading floors, leaking ceilings, cratered asphalt in the parking lots and 1970's style exteriors all betray Oakridge's age. I keep coming back because Oakridge has a good selection of anchor stores: Safeway, Bay, Source, White Spot, Kin's Market and Crate and Barrel. They also have a healthy variety of specialty stores like Lego, EB Games, Apple and Henry Birks. The west-end of Vancouver deserves a modern, upscale mall. Hopefully, this will be addressed in future renovations. read more

If I could give a 0 star review, I would. The "highlights" of this mall are unclear directions (due to the entire mall being under construction) and rude construction staff. This morning I was attempting to exit Oakridge mall and the signage to exit was very unclear (I do not go there very often). there was a group of 4 or 5 construction workers standing in the parking lot so I drove up to them to ask how I could get out of there. One of them gave me directions and another one loudly said "the same way as you got in here". Apart from the fact that it was NOT the same way I got in there (there are multiple entry and exit points), the signage in the parking lots is confusing and unclear. More importantly, Im surprised that Oakridge thinks its acceptable for their construction crews to verbally harass mall customers. I would expect anyone working at Oakridge, regardless of who they are, to have a basic minimum level of civility towards customers or visitors to the mall. I let the mall know about this and have heard nothing in response. read more

Had a meal over at the WS in the Oakridge Mall today for a meeting. Couldn't believe how empty the mall was with there planned revamp. They must have turned off the heat too, over by the main entrance over here with all the empty units. It was literally fricken freezing in the WS and we could all feel the draft coming thru. I guess the mall owners looking to save some $$ with no tenants in this part of the mall. read more

UPDATE -- I'm loving how Oakridge has their "security guards" at the new corridor advising everyone to watch their step? You realize a sign adequately does this job and if it's such a concern, make it a ramp. Concept: instead of paying your security guards to do the job of a sign, have them actually MONITOR the parking lots you want staff to park in so damn badly. If you can't provide a safe environment for the staff in our office (MOSTLY WOMEN) to park in then how dare you ticket us for trying to park a safe distance from the offices we work in? We've already had cars broken into and damaged. And don't even get me started on how Oakridge didn't maintain the parking lot during the snowfall resulting in my coworker sustaining a horrible arm injury. Your attempts at trying to be a high quality mall are laughable with the low quality staff and security you can barely provide. Metrotown is triple the size with a security team that actually does the job. read more

oh how i miss this place... i used to stay here one of the flats above the mall. It was so convenient to just go down to the mall and eat and shop. however two yrs ago, i went back to oakridge center.. a lot has changed..and the stores are just okay. read more

The one thing that has always been perceived is that Oakridge is in some ways an Elitest, High End mall, known for being located in an area that is filled with over million dollar houses and expensive shops this mall definitely carries a reputation. In some ways Oakridge also has an identity crisis, of having some real high end shops, and some shops, or stores that just don't mesh with what their 'vision' if you call it that..... actually is. This is one of those malls that has never really grown in size ever since it was built (rumour has it that it is finally getting an expansion). Most people who have had their childhood in the Lower Mainland have some found vivid memory of this mall. For me (and this is really dating myself) where the food court is located right now, I remember a store called Abercrombie & Fitch, where it was such a novelty store (not the over cologned store many of you are thinking about that sells close, and that as long as you had a nose that could smell, or a cold, the scent would pierce right through that!) as they had leather elephants I used to hop on when I was young. I still remember the Marks & Spencer, and then later on there was a Pet Habitat and music store that are no longer there. There used to be the big Woodwards department store, and a big Superstar where the food court was. Many changes over the years, and many styles of stores have been funneled out, as this is the Cadillac Fairview group, who does not like to renew leases, and wants to have a higher echelon group of stores in their shopping centres! It is 2012, and due to the 'big screen, big sound' of the big Silver City style of theatres, the small theatres here have closed their screens for good as of January 2, 2012. Amazing how the hairdresser beside them is still around after all this time. White Spot has been a staple to this mall, and even though I do not consider their food 'high-end' their prices are 'high-end' enough to justify them staying put. As in my other review, I still do not understand why they are where they are, but it probably has something to do with big brother (The Bay) being next door. The parking is wonderful here, as it is abundant, all over the mall, at every angle. If you know the 'in's-and-out's' of this place, it is not hard getting in, and also getting to the right exit, direction and street you want to go to. If your looking for deals, this mall has some, but really not many, and even though it is a high end mall with high end shops (Tiffany's, Hugo Boss, Coach, etc, etc, etc) you may be sent into downtown, as most likely due to traffic, they don't get as much stuff as the downtown stores do. It's an odd type of mall in my opinion, I work close, so I frequent this quite often, and even I get bored as there is not much variety of stuff here, but it is very accesible to say the least. read more

My favorite centre in Greater Vancouver. They mall is constantly upgrading and remodeling. When new shops come in its always a nice touch and an upgrade. The Apple store here is front and centre, always great. Lots of covered and open parking. All the major phone company's and wireless wave. An Asian bakery along with Safeway and Oakridge library. Overall a beautiful layout with skylights that run the length of the mall. Santa here, at Christmas is second to none. read more

This mall is a bit disappointing to shop when quite a few number of shops have closed down. The mall felt empty on a weekend. I was confused to see that there was valet parking when there was ample parking spots available. The mall does strive to be high end with the designer name stores available for your shopping desires. If you know you want a particular brand, you might be able to skip downtown and just head right here. read more

To be honest, I'm not a big fan of this mall. It is like alot of people say, a more upscale mall with stores like Birks, Hugo Boss, Harry Rosen, DKNY etc. Maybe cuz of that I find the people (shoppers & workers) quite snooty. They also have the Bay and Safeway and had Zellers but I guess Target is moving in now. The Crate and Barrel also moved in not long ago. I only come here to go to Safeway or get a lottery ticket or something since it's on the way home from work but besides that, there's not really much here for me.......oh and they have an Apple Store here as well.......... read more

Yelp 100 - Smells nice and clean. Not too busy. Oak Ridge is a zen shopping experience after moving to south Van from Metrotown. The concierge desk provides some office services as well as a complimentary phone. There are little seated areas with Palm trees and a player piano. I have heard it touted as Vancouver's nicest mall and they could be right about that. read more

Right on the main north-south street between Richmond and Vancouver, the OC is a nice neighborhood mall (a mall in a neighborhood!). Nice corridors, lighting, colors... It has a fairly typical variety in store brands foo-foo fancy and budget bargains, awesome nibbles, coffee and a subterranean library. The bathrooms felt clean and up-to-snuff. As evident if you look around, though, you will notice signs of what's to come: a massive face-lift! I admit the new design looks super awesome and will come with, um, various sacrifices, for sure. However, if I was a local there, I would look forward to the new LQQK of the future Oakridge Centre. read more

This mall has changed quite a bit since the 90s. It used to have stores such as Dynamite, Jacob etc. but has evolved into a very high end mall. There are still great options such as a newly renovated Aritizia, Wilfred, Papyrus, Purdy's and a Hudson Bay. Pros- it's not flooded with teenagers as the price point is mainly out of their range lol. There are not many options as the bigger malls but I find it convenient and go here quite often due to proximity and they carry a few of my favourites. As the new design and renovations start to be implemented, I believe this mall will get better and better. read more

Oakridge mall located on Cambie St & 41st Ave, it's small and old shopping centre. The interior is simple design, bright and spacious. It's only few minutes from my house and it has some good shops there. From bank, medical office, clothing, beauty, supermarket, restaurant, bakery, department store to food court that you find in this mall. It's so easy to find parking and relax to shop in this mall. read more

Closer than Richmond Centre or Burnaby's Metrotown, and easier to navigate than downtown's Pacific Centre, Oakridge is one of my shopping mall staples. Housing over 150 stores and services, many of them higher-end and related to women's fashion and accessories, plus tons of unique gift ware, it's a great place to go when you need to find an outfit fast or birthday present on the fly. So just what kind of "high-end" shops will you find? For women, Oakridge offers boutiques like MaxMara, BCBG, Aritzia, Edward Chapman Ladies Shop (check out their amazing Burberry selection), Zioni, Benetton, and bebe, to name a few. Men can also go fashion forward at Oakridge, with shops like Boys Co, Hugo Boss, and Harry Rosen. Unisex retailers include Banana Republic, lululemon, and Lacoste. Bling-wise, choose from jewellers like Birks, Swarovski, and Rodeo. And let's not forget the shoes: Try Coach, Nine West, Browns, and Kris + Cris. All that shopping makes a girl hungry. Oakridge includes a sizable Safeway and generous food court. The mall is also home to a cinema, bank, and various health-related services. read more

This is my old stomping ground since I was a child. Back then there were a lot more casual stores where a kid would be able to buy something, mind you not a big item but at least some toys or clothes. Now it's more of a 'higher end' mall where you'll find Coach, Tiffany & Co, DKNY, Harry Rosen, etc. There's still some reasonable stores such as Aldo, EB Games, Lego, Banana Republic, etc for someone to shop at. Also there's a bunch of wireless stores and Apple store. The food court was revamped so its a lot nicer and so far, the washrooms my food court has always been clean. Usually mall washrooms are ok but there's always a worker nearby to clean them, should it need it. It is very accessible by bus and Canada Line so you can leave your car at home, unless you are getting a lot of stuff or heavy items. Parking is ample but can get packed on the weekend, especially around lunch time as there's a White Spot by the entrance. Target is replacing the old Zellers location so expect it to be busier. read more

Love this mall. No riff raff or high school punks, just prestigious private school students. With the new bakery, higher end casual Chinese, a few produce places, this is a one stop shop. Also new now, in underground by Cambie St. are the new electric charging stations. read more

I've been here several times and love my experience here. This is a relatively small mall but the shopping experience is relaxing. I usually would come here to do a little window shopping after work. I love the shops here (They have David's Tea, Aritzia and Oak and Forte! Three of my favourite shop here~) Tiffany is also here too! The staff are generally very nice and helpful. I really like the Starbucks in the food court too~the people there are always happy when taking my order. I do wish to see more shops coming to Oakridge, maybe Zara or Topshop one day? They will be undergoing a major reno in a few years, expanding the size of the mall, so maybe a little surprise will be coming. read more

The mall itself is under construction at this time but stores are still open. I went into Marccain clothing store in Oakridge Centre and had picked up a blouse I thought my sister might like. Before I knew what was happening the shirt was ripped out of my hand by the clerk. This clerk then told me that the shirt was too small for me and that it was "not on sale". I could not believe this employee of Marccain was so stupid as to assume what I could afford and basically messed up what could have been a sale for the company. Maybe Marccain could be a little more selective in their hiring. read more

How on earth is there still road construction happening here? Argh. Chloe E. mentions a trip here being fruitless. I would have to agree.

Naaa it was berryful. read more

The good: Plenty of parking Spacious and open Clean and nicely decorated Bright, pleasant... David's Tea! I don't leave with that "I've spent my afternoon in a dungeon" feeling. The 'not bad, but not for me': High end stores (few real deals if that's how you like to shop) The lady dressed in a frock and bonnet at the piano during Christmas shopping season who sang Christmas songs by request. She was very sweet but the cheesiness of it all gave me a rash. If you've a hankering for high end brands like Banana Republic, BCBG, Benneton etc., then this is a great place to visit. Maybe I just wish I was their target ; ) read more

As a guy, going shopping sucks (obviously). I avoid Metrotown at all costs. Packed with mall rats and stale air that always gives me headaches, it's torture. Not to mention one of the worst design layouts ever. Anyhow, enough venting. Oakridge is relaxing. Never anywhere near as busy as Metrotown with an outside mall feel, I can shop without having the urge to drink. Bonus points for the proximity of the Canada Line station without a packed overhead walkway. read more

In my opinion, this is one of the only shopping centers that has remained relatively unchanged for the time I've been there. I'm certainly thankful for this fact, because when it comes to malls, Oakridge center is one of the best. Let's start with the stores. The selection is admirable, especially for a place located in the middle of Vancouver. Physically, the mall is not very big, which makes the fact that they can even fit so many different brand names under one roof ever more impressive. Oakridge center is also home to one of three Apple Stores in Vancouver, which is icing on the cake. Parking is easy. There are a lot of space underneath the mall, though on rainy days you may have to struggle. I've never been to the movie theater, but the mall has enough stuff to keep you occupied without it. The Vancouver Public Library (Oakridge Branch) is also located close to the mall, so when your legs gets tired, you can always go, rest up, and read a good book. Apart from that, the hours are good. They've done away with the live piano player and replaced the position with an automatic piano, which is a shame. I had wanted the job. There are also plenty of places outside of the food court to sit, which is becoming increasingly rare in malls these days. All in all? Visit. You shouldn't be disappointed. read more

Amazing experience with Santa. Special needs children may have an appointment to meet with Santa and have their picture taken. The photographers, concierge were patient and kind. Santa came and greeted my 4yr old son, with a high five, fist pump and invited him to sit beside him on the big chair. When stores in your community take the time with consideration and genuine care, it is noticed and I am sharing. Thank you. read more

Mar19/18 Had a disappointing experience with a Surinder (mall security). Spoke with Tatiana (property manager Customer Service) and Jessie (security manager). Explained that I was accosted by this guy in the parking lot, but because they have no cameras in the garage and there were no witnesses, it is difficult to prove. I've been going to this mall since the 70's and have never had an experience like this before! read more

Of all the malls in the Lower mainland, this is one of my favorites. Oakridge isn't a huge mall like Metrotown, but this doesn't mean it won't have what you need. Oakridge has a great selection of every type of shop: trendier clothing stores (i.e. Banana Republic, DKNY, Aritzia), higher end clothes (i.e. Armani, Lacoste, BCBG), department stores, tea shops and so on. Conveniently located on the Canada line at the 41st street station, it's very easy to get to. If you feel inclined to drive, there is plenty of parking outside and in the underground parking. I find most people feel the desire to park outside, making the mall appear that it will be incredibly busy inside, but I typically find there's still lots of parking underground. So, don't be discouraged if you can't find parking outside, try underground in their parkade, I'm sure you'll have more success. Oakridge Centre has all the main shops other bigger malls have. However, from my experiences, I have found Oakridge Centre to be much less crowded/busy than many of the other malls in Vancouver (i.e. Metrotown or Pacific Centre Mall) on the same day. This is great for when you want a changing room, or to try a product and you don't have a tonne of people in front of you or waiting behind (I'm looking at you Apple Store, which is a lot less busy in Oakridge). Additionally, I also find that many of the stores in Oakridge have more stock/are not as picked over. My finacee has noticed the same thing was she's picked up items at Lululemon (they almost always have her size in stock and most likely in multiple colours). For me, the Murchie's teas or EB Games have always had the item I wanted in stock. The food court has your standard selection of foods. However, there are several food-based stores scattered throughout the mall for you to find things (i.e. David's teas, St. Germaine Bakery). Overall, I prefer Oakridge to many of the other malls since they have all the shops I would need and all the shops I would want, while being less crowded and having a good stock of products in their stores. This is definitely my go to mall in Vancouver. read more

Grew up in this mall a long time ago it was an open-air outdoor mall from the 60s 70s and then they renovated it completely and overtime became more and more of a high-end luxury mall as the theater went away and Zellers went away and name brands came in, panda express used to be where the expensive dim sum restaurant is now parking is a bit of a pain One time I was subjected to pepper spray in front of Apple by some stupid teenagers who should've gone to jail for making the whole place toxic many people evacuated because we were all coughing and my eyes burned for hours after The mall hours are also stupid as hell they don't open late read more
