And there's some tables and chairs that you can purchase food at the cafe and sit and eat at, or bring your own lunch if you work there. There's free wi-fi and free parking of course! There's a lot of chain stores that you seen small towns. Harts, Northern reflections, Dollarama, FreshCo, pet valu, home hardware, etc. you can also find local businesses in there as well. You can check out their Facebook page to see what's there.

When big city visitors roll into town, they usually think of the Espanola Mall as a rinky dinky…read moreindoor mall or they appreciate that this is pretty good complex for a small northern town. Hart Store and FreshCo. are the anchor stores sandwiched by about two dozen other businesses such as Dollarama, The Source, Hair Plus, Dental & Optometrist offices, Mark's Work Wearhouse, and Pet Valu. It's a good mix for a community mall. Plenty of free parking. Clean and well maintained. Flashback...I lived in Espanola when Chongo's Discotheque was here.

Large shopping center with a wide variety of stores. Including a super Walmart. (Making many store…read moreowners post 'no shopping cart in store' signs) hilarious! LOL! You know how those shopping carts can make it anywhere w/in 2 miles from any given Walmart. Like a herd of buffalo you'll find dozens of them from the main mall entrance all the way to the bus stop. But I digress. The food court has several options to choose from. Including Dairy Queen. Taco Bell. Tim Hortons. A&W.... Italian. Chinese. There is also a drug store right there if you want something else. I liked to get the Bumble Bee tuna and crackers for $2.50. Since Hubs wanted to go to the mall EVERY SINGLE DAY, I was trying to same money and ration my calories. Walking the mall is pleasant and although much of what you get in Canada is more expensive than USA, there are a lot of stores with fantastic prices and great sales. I always need another suitcase when I leave Sudbury!

I can get a bit cluttered when it's super busy but I always see people cleaning up so it's pretty organized Even if there's a long lineup for the cash, don't worry because it tends to go pretty fast and they call cashiers to the counter

Ah, Dollarama - you have become my go-to store for just about everything. And why not? Dollarama…read morehas grown over the past few years to include just about everything you can think of, so why pay more elsewhere? Pros: - This Dollarama is quite large and the items it regularly carries are seldom out of stock. - You really CAN get just about everything here - home decor, toiletries, clothing, party items, pet products, food, school supplies, outdoor stuff, and much more. - The price, of course, is always right. Prices have risen slightly over the past few years - there are more items at $1.50, $2, etc. - but nothing is over $3. How can you go wrong with that? Better yet, if something is missing a price tag, it's automatically $1. - Like every other store in Southridge Mall, this place is never truly busy. This, of course, means that you can browse in relative peace and quiet. - Lots of parking; you won't have an issue finding a spot close to the store's entrance. - Checkout experience has always been quick. Cons: - Staff can be hit-or-miss - some are cheerful, some are sullen. Always worth the (short) trip!
