On my recent trip to Montreal, I visited this store twice. The first time was just a "recon" visit…read more(lol!) with friends who were avid fans of Aritzia. For my part, I had never even heard of the store but, while here with friends, I was very impressed by the selection and quality of the clothing I saw. The prices seemed high, but I decided I would return in the next few days to check things out at my leisure. I liked the two-leveled set up of the store, too, with both an ascending escalator in the front and a grandiose staircase in the rear, with changing rooms on both floors. I also like the projected video of fashions displayed on the wall by the escalator and the friendly security guard who greeted me when I entered. The whole place had an artsy-type vibe to it. The clothes all seemed to be of high quality and none of the fashions were too...trendy or edgy. They were all more classic, basic pieces: chunky sweaters, cardigans, pants, skirts, belts and scarves, etc. (Note that this store caters only to women). I really like the Rasa bras with the super-thick straps (kinda dominatrix-y. lol! I thought they were super cool), so I got 3 of them in different colored trims on my return visit. They had a model with white strap trim that I really wanted but they didn't have my size (only a few extra-small and one large). I asked a sales lady on the floor (a young woman about 20 with super long brunette hair. Wish I had taken note of her name) if they had any more of these bras with the white trim in stock. This gal was super nice and friendly and said she'd check her computer. I followed her to the computer station where she checked and said no, they haven't any more of these particular bra models. BUT, she added, the Aritzia store in the Eaton Center (five blocks east) had three of these bras in my size! Argh. I had just come from there and was walking the 3 miles west back to my folks' house. Oh well, I figured I'd backtrack (despite the 90 degree heat wave) and go to Eaton Center to get this bra. I really liked it and hey, maybe the extra walk would compensate for all the wonderful Montreal meals I'd been eating (hahaha. I'd have to walk cross-country for that to happen. But I digress....). I wandered back to Eaton Center and checked out the Aritzia store there. It was way smaller and had a much smaller inventory, but was still well laid-out with the basics there. I didn't see my bra there - only the other models (which I had already purchased). I stopped a sales girl there, asking where I could find this bra in with the white trim, noting the other store said they had 3 of them in stock here in my size. They checked on their computer and said no, the other store was "mistaken". They don't have ANY such bras in their store, not in any size. ARGH. I must add that the sales gal here wasn't too thrilled to help me out. I got the distinct impression that I was putting her out. ARGH. So my shlep 5 blocks east was for naught , and I started the long walk back to my parents' house, passing the other Aritzia store on the way. Such is my experience with these two stores. (I'm rating the store 3 stars because I do love my purchases from here and their product line is sound. Just wish their sales staff got their act together and some were more pleasant).

In the 15 minutes i was there no one offered me help. I found what i was looking for and another similar style in case the one i had selected wasn't the perfect fit. I didnt have time to try things on so i got in line to pay. The 3 cashiers behind the counter were super rude and when i asked if my purchase was refundable one yelled out:No! Bras final sale! At that point the two bralettes were already scanned and wrapped up. Then i was forced to disclose my full name (???!) even after saying i would rather not to "print the receipt" Since when do you have to take down the identity of the client to print a receipt for underwear? Horrendous experience. Will stick to shopping online

I hadn't step foot in an Aubainerie store in years and was pleasantly surprised! They've undergone…read morea nice makeover, signage, store display and interior have all been remodeled. It looks a lot more current. This is still a very family friendly store, clothes for just about everyone and in every category. Casual wear, dress, beach to lingerie. I was looking for some affordable formal clothes for work and found so many items under 20$ I couldn't believe it! The best part is that many of their pants have long inseems. I am 5'8 and always have trouble finding pants that are narrow or long enough elsewhere. I saw many generous sizing up to 16 too. In terms of value for money, this place fills the bill. If you need to upgrade your wardrobe with trendy to classic styles, l'Aubainerie will help you without breaking the bank. I find the quality very comparable to larger retailers like H&M, Reitmans, Smart Set etc.

The SAs are quite stand-offish and really don't offer any greeting or assistance. I only had some time to check out their perfume section, but most SAs were focused on socializing - oh, well! More sampling and spritzing and sniffing for me! :P They also have a cafe that's located in the lower level that offers beverages, breakfast plates, as well as lunch platters. In terms of customer service, I'd rather much visit the other department stores. +not-too-friendly service T___T

Yesterday when I was there, the girl at the changing rooms pretty much ignored me but then when I was in line to pay, essentially grabbed the clothes out of my hand to tell the girl at the cash that the clothes were sold under her. I totally understand commission but if you're not going to be helpful then it's inappropriate to come and claim the sale afterwards. Overall, everything is pricey but high quality. I love their pants for work!

Thank goodness for this Walmart because it's not just a Walmart, it's basically a Super Walmart with groceries and the standard Walmart goods. There's a large parking lot and it's pretty busy. We were able to get a salad mix that came with greens, toppings and dressing. It was the best thing I ate. Not best thing EVER but when you're wanting some vegetables, anything is delicious at that point. Now you're wondering why the 3 stars? Well it was so packed. There were so many people there. I guess it's Christmas time so a lot of folks are expected to be around. I just felt really....surrounded. And this doesn't help that we were knee deep in omicron surge. We easily checked out in the self checkout area which is what we tend to do when it's available. Otherwise, it's basically your typical Walmart. I guess Walmarts are the same regardless what country you're in.
