It was held in front of the old Sears store, which is currently Spirit Halloween. That's my first impression of this mall. Stores close, but this mall and the folks behind it find creative ways to lure shoppers and eaters to come here. While heading over to the ribfest, I noticed an L.L. Bean sign. As a fan of casual, comfy clothing, I knew that I had to return and check it out. The mall's layout is interesting. I parked by the entrance closest to L.L. Bean and Moxie's, which was the second floor. This mall has two floors, but the top floor is more like a third of space than what you get on the first floor. If someone forced you to choose a single floor to shop, you would want the first floor because you've got more variety and the food court is there. I would be torn if this restriction was there, for Coles and Showcase are on the second floor and I love them. The main anchor stores are Hudson's Bay, SportChek, and Homesense. The former is massive and decent. I checked out the food court because, hey, I like food and my feet automatically moved me here. You get your usual chains, such as A&W, Subway, and Teriyaki Experience. The ones that I didn't recognize were Good Karma (Indian fare that looked so good) and Wikki Hut (Asian-South American mix of food that looked yummy). There is a blocked-off area to dine, with two staff members checking for your proof of vaccination and ID at the entrance. I spent most of my time in L.L. Bean and Hot Topic. I enjoyed looking at cool merchandise in both and ultimately making a purchase in the latter. I ended up getting snacks at Mr Pretzels and Kernels Popcorn. They are away from the food court, but the aroma from the latter lured me over here. I love that they are practically next to each other. I am a fan of both places and would definitely return to this mall just for these two businesses. The mall is clean and nicely kept. The women's washroom was bright and in great shape, which also included a separate nursery section. I saw a dental clinic. I didn't see any other health services, so you're not coming here for a doctor's appointment. However, you can get your prescription at Shoppers Drug Mart. The only downside during this pandemic is that there aren't places to sit down to take a breather, other than the blocked-off food court. I wanted to eat my pretzel and pretzel dogs somewhere. I ended up sitting in front of the fireplace where you technically aren't supposed to sit down, but I did anyway. It's a decent mall that has practically everything you need and a lot more. There was lots of parking available. I like it here it and would come back to shop some more. (405)

The neck label was removed sloppily as you can see in the pic. My GF says Joni's told her that it came from a fashion show and labels are often removed at shows. Now I've been in the apparel business and can assure you ALL garments are labeled at shows as backstage is mayhem. So let's do the math here ... That 50% off dress means $70 MSRP which it, of course, is not! How many laws have been broken here?

L.L. Bean has been in Canada for a few years now. I am not an early adopter. This visit was my…read morefirst at any of its stores in Canada. Over a month ago, I was at Georgian Mall for the Barrie Ribfest that was in drive-thru format. While driving over to the exact ribfest parking lot location, I noticed an L.L. Bean sign. I didn't have a chance to walk around this mall thanks to going to three different Yelp experiences that day (some would call me crazy, but I like determined). I vowed to return. That return trip happened yesterday. I didn't look at the mall map in advance. It is rare for me these days. I guessed. I saw the business's name at an entrance and decided to park by it. Although it was busy at around 2 pm, I didn't have any problem finding a parking spot. I parked near the Moxie's, which is near this entrance. I liked guessing. Sure enough, L.L. Bean is the first store on your left that you see when you walk through this mall entrance. Sweet! This store is big and bright. A woman welcomed me. It was a nice touch. No sales folks were following me around the store. It felt like a leisurely stroll. Full disclosure: Years ago, well before I knew what Yelp was, I did a road trip to the east coast, took a ferry with my car over to the States, and drove back through the States back home. One of my stops was the flagship L.L. Bean store in Freeport, ME. I loved it so much, especially posing next to an oversized set of signature boots. I wish that this store had that same magical feel. Instead, I looked at the pretty puffy jacket colours. They looked cool and warm. Sadly, you're looking at shelling out at least $300 for one. Ouch! I am a casual person, so t-shirts, cashmere sweaters, and hoodies work for me clothes-wise. You get all of them here. The prices seemed jacked up to accommodate the exchange rate and perhaps more. It's the only downside that I can think of. The quality, colour selection, and style still make me happy. I like the footwear here. I started with a pair of purple Rieker Mary Jane shoes that L.L. Bean used to carry years ago. I still have a blue suede pair of slip-on shoes. The best thing is that it carries shoes in a woman's size 11. If you are looking for a sale, there's a sale section in the back left corner of the store when you walk in. It wasn't heavily discounted, but 20% off is better than nothing. You can get pretty cool gifts if you don't know your recipient's pant or shirt size. There are insulated beverage tumblers, comfy beds for your dog or cat, and cozy sherpa throws. I enjoyed looking at everything, including the travel accessories and bags. Although I didn't buy anything, I was thrilled to walk into this store and check out the merchandise. It's nice that I can get something from L.L. Bean driving up north a bit rather than ordering online, and dealing with shipping, duty, and a longer wait to have it in my hands. (399)
