To be honest, we visit each time we're in the area but there's not many stores we would shop at. It's just fun to peruse and window shop here. It is a pretty dated mall but people love it. We tried the food court a few times and the food here is okay but you'll probably do better venturing to eat outside. Overall, a fun place to pass the time and a centre for community.

The food was laid out so picturesque at some stalls as well. Everything was very much made fresh to order as well. The facility itself is fairly clean and the restrooms seem to be serviced regularly. I do wish the entrances smelled less like cigarettes but they can't really control what goes on outside and the way that it wafts inside.

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.

What I wrote close to a legal-adult age gap ago (#1) still largely holds true, with a few notable…read moreexceptions: construction never truly finished as the place is perpetually under it; it no longer resembles what it was for the last decade and is more updated and spacious than ever. In fact, the multi year transformation that its currently undergoing makes it less of a traditional mall and more of a mini city that has spawned into a mixed-use commercial district. Their use of natural lighting all throughout the space makes it an ideal place for a photo in any corner. In addition to the space, many stores have stepped in with a good number that are high-end to appease all of the new money coming into the city of Richmond. It has become a leisurely destination for families and teenagers as folks roam the mall from corner to corner. One of the most significant transformations has been their food court, which has been dubbed the DiningTERRACE and features a number of food and drink spots. The only downside has been the mediocrity of most spots, which has plenty of room for improvement. Parking is also a mess, especially during the weekend. Folks are constantly competing for space and camping out has become a necessity during their busiest times. As many skyscrapers have been built nearby and it's proximity to the metro rail, this place will only serve to be busier as time goes on. ____________ (#1) 18 years has flown by.

Dumpy old school Asian mall at the SW corner of Cambie and Garden City. Had no idea this place even…read morehad a food court until my friend discovered it by accident the other day. Parking is available in the middle of the mall, accessed from the S (McKim) or W (Odlin) sides of the complex. The mall is basically a rectangle with stores around the perimeter, and the parkade in the middle. The food court (2F, W side of complex) is pretty dated and beaten up. There was some sort of roof leak in the eating area, so there were buckets on the floor. Since nobody seems to know this place exists, there is quite a bit of seating, which is nice. As of the time of writing, the food court hours are 0900-1900 daily. Places do start closing at 1800 though, so best to come earlier.

Some of these shops are ones that you can only find in the 604. Seems to be more of a place where Asian Ma and Pa stores thrive without drama from the rest of the city. There are a lot of herb stores as well as fashion boutiques as well. Every time I step foot in this mall I feel like I am in Hong Kong. I am really feelings the 604 love here. I would come here again if I could. Drawback: If you are looking for good food, please go somewhere else because their food court is limited. Good news is these are foods that you don't see in US Asian shopping centers. The size of this mall is the same as Mustafa Center in Singapore. If you want bigger go somewhere else.

Random "expansion" (or is it an offshoot?) of Aberdeen Centre…read more Because it was built much later than the original mall, this section is awkwardly linked to the original mall by a weird unfinished section that hasn't seen any retail action in years. Parking is shared with the Aberdeen Centre parkade. In other words, it's a total war zone on the weekends. This part of the mall has been around for a few years, but it sure is empty. I'm not sure even 1/4 of the retail spaces are occupied. It's pretty dead. Anyone remember Bridgepoint? The redeeming factor (and I guess the only real reason to visit this part of the mall) is the food court. It's gotten better in recent years, but this food court used to be almost completely deserted. Now it looks like word has gotten out, and there is a somewhat decent amount of foot traffic. Food stall turnover is still quite high though. Personally I think of it as a much quieter version of the Aberdeen Centre food court.

Shopping centre and hotel by Cambie and No3…read more Parking is available in the SE corner (ground floor), as well as a nice large parkade accessed from the NE corner (drive between the 2 towers/buildings). Not sure what to make of this place. It looks big from the outside, but basically it's a dumpy food court and a really sad shopping area, with a hotel and office tower attached. The food court is obviously tailored more towards the lunchtime crowd, as it was totally dead by dinner time (only 2 places open). The shopping area is pretty dead too in the evening too, other than a bakery. The place used to be more lively when there was a T&T here, but that is long gone. At least the parking is manageable now.
