Skylights letting the sunlight in, just so soothing. Love those huge tanned floor to ceiling windows that look out to the main business area. I can stay here for a while... even a whole afternoon.

Not only do they have a play house, train tables but they also have this little hallway with explore tables where kids can test different fine motor skills etc. They have two program rooms where you can sign up for different programs throughout the year, some are free and some have a fee ( anywhere between $40 - $60 for 8 week program ). But you need to register quick because they go fast!! They are not only specific to this branch but all over the Oakville Libraries. You register online.

The mall is not as busy and as large as Square One (even during busy weekends and holidays)…read more Parking is pretty large and easy to find. The mall is accessible by public transit, too. The layout reminds me a bit like Sherway Gardens, expect the walkways-concourse ("hallway") don't loop around to the center. It is pretty easy to get around and find a particular store. Some stores (like Miniso, Sunrise Records, Garage, maybe the Walmart) at Erin Mills are larger compared the same ones at Square One. Also, stores and restaurants not attached to the main building are easy to get to (ex. Indigo, One Plant, IHOP, Dollarama, Pizza Pizza, etc).

Port Credit GO Station is a small but busy transit hub in Mississauga, serving both GO Train and GO…read moreBus riders. The train service is generally reliable, and the connection to local MiWay buses makes it convenient for getting around the city. The station is wheelchair accessible and has a ticket booth, seats, and basic amenities, and it's easy to navigate. Parking is available but fills up fast during rush hours. One of the nicest things about this station is its location--you can step outside and be just minutes from Port Credit's shops, restaurants, and lakeside parks.

The go train service here is pretty good, I only had one delay on my trips with GO, but during peak hours (especially when the train comes back from Union,) it can be FULL. But I have never seen a train from this line unable to take more people. Almost like they have extra storage.

If you're looking for a slice of Europe without having to 'cross the pond' (fly over the Atlantic…read moreOcean), try Village Square in Burlington. Atlhough small area-wise, it has an European charm - including the iconic London red phone booth! Made up of a few blocks in downtown Burlington (steps from the waterfront, Brant Street Pier, and Spencer Smith Park), Village Square has a number of restaurants, patios, pubs, and unique specialty shops and services. Think of it as an outdoor mall. It reminds me of a cross between Toronto's Yorkville and Distillery District (albeit smaller and more compact). The place can be a bit quiet in the morning, but comes alive at night with lights and sometimes live music (especially in the summer months).

This is a truly amazing place. It seems unknown to people in Toronto but I definitely like it and…read morewill visit more often. It is set up like an European village with its narrow alleys and cobblestones. There are many restaurants, specialty shops and services. It can be considered an outdoor mall. It is located near the up-and-coming waterfront area in Burlington, which has so many restaurants and an excellent boardwalk and playground and so many condos being built. The decor of each building has an old European look. The closest equivalent in Toronto is The Distillery District but Village Square is smaller and butter implemented in my opinion. It was a busy place on a Saturday night with most of the restaurants filled. There are little nooks and crannies are that very photographic. There is even a musician to entertain people.

Last month, when I was briefly in Oakville for a couple of days, I needed a Shoppers Drug Mart…read more(SDM). I did a search and ended up going to the one at Oakville Place. It was the closest one to me. I normally like standalone drugstores. I don't spend as much. Get me visiting a mall and I'm bound to shop. It happened here, but I contained my shopping madness down to this mall wing with SDM and the food court above it. It's a decent mall. It has Pearl, a Chinese dim sum restaurant that I like. I typically go to the one at Bayview Village. It was nice to see one west of Mississauga. The dining room looked gorgeous as I walked over to the mall entrance. The SDM is steps away from the main mall entrance, which I appreciated. I got what I was looking for and more. This same wing of the mall had Claire's. I ended up getting Squishmallows and a Grogu bucket hat. It was nice finally visiting the LL Bean store. I love the products, but there are rarely any sales that make me want to buy anything. The mall ceilings are nice. There's lot of glass that allow natural light to shine in. It's cool and cheerful. There are also various decor accents, such as triangular lighting and dangling spiral installations, that are pleasing to the eye as you walk around. The food court is cool. There was a bee installation where you could read up on how wonderful bees are. I didn't end up dining at the food court. However, there was a sushi clearance at the end of the night at Sushi Mac. I couldn't resist and bought some sushi to bring back to my hotel room. There is a Kernels-Yogen Fruz store on the main floor. I dropped by to get popcorn at Kernels before leaving the mall. Popcorn is my weakness. I got two bags to feed by popcorn habit. I was only in one wing of this mall and enjoyed being there. I would likely be broke if I had walked the entire mall that evening. It's a good mall. (428)
