This is my favourite Winners to shop at in Montreal because it's not a zoo like the other…read morelocations. I enjoy not having other people touching me and rubbing up against me as they pass me while I'm shopping. They don't have the luxury brands that the Place Montreal Trust location has, but still have a solid selection of regular brands and even a few Contemporary brands. Things are a bit less picked over at this location. It's outside of the touristy areas. The layout is a bit weird and it not just a big open rectangle like most Winners, but it's ok because it's not crowded so even though the space is not open concept you don't feel cramped.

I always end up buying my shoes Nd shirts from there. This winners is a bit empty compared to the others which makes it more fun to shop there. This winners is supposed to be different from the others as it is named "Mode". I was expecting it to be more fashionable and more trendy but this isn't the case specially that it is located in Griffin Tow.

This Winners is in the Complexe Desjardins. The layout is a bit odd and isn't as big and open as…read moremost Winners in malls. It's not quite an "urban concept" Winners as the size isn't that small, but it feels tight in there because of the layout. I love Winners as a brand, so I'll always go here when I'm in Montreal, but is it my favourite Winners? No. It's crowded and busy like the one in Place Montreal Trust, but doesn't have the same selection. It is a newer location. I think it only open in 2017, although I realize that newer is relative since as I'm writing this that's 7 years ago. Haha. I consider anything that opened after I left Montreal "newer" but as time goes on, I forget that I left Montreal a very long time ago, lol. It's probably my least favourite of the 4 Winners in the downtown-ish area (Alexis Nihon, Place Montreal Trust, and Peel bring the other 3), but I love Winners so even a bad Winners is still pretty good to me. Haha. Review #8 (2025)

They have a lot of jewellery with red tags on it so you can pickup a discounted item for cheap ! They have a great assortment of activewear, shoes, pjs, clothing and skincare items. Some food items also. My favorite thing to get at Winners is my organic skincare which is costly in other higher end stores or when I'm shopping online at winners I get them for $10 to $15 a bottle. I love getting the high quality items I need for half the price. When I come there is never a line like the Eaton Centre Location and the staff is always polite and friendly to me also. The store is also always cleaned and never a mess. Plus very little shoppers in this location also.

It's a bit less busy than the Place Montreal Trust location. About the same level of busy as the Complexe Desjardins location. Layout is more open concept, which I like. No little nooks and crannies. Discount prices on brand names! Clothes, shoes, jewelry, cosmetics, housewares and giftware. All the things I love, haha. Review #32 (2025)

I'm a big Winners (and HomeSense) fan. IMO, these stores ate the best of their kind in Canada. This…read morestore in Alexis Nihon is no exception. I like how this store has a decent home section and beauty section in addition to it's large clothing sections (for men, women and children. FYI: they have a terrific athletic/work-out apparel department here. Really good brand name athletic clothing). The home section pales in comparison to the HomeSense stores, naturally, but it's definitely the best store around for decent-priced but quality home goods. (Ditto the beauty section). I like how the various sections or departments in this store are well-marked, with clear signage. And navigating the store is easy and enjoyable, with wide main pathways around the store. And check-out is terrific, with a huge electronic board at the front of the line, directing you to the cashier that is available. Very efficient.

Even tho people think Winners are all the same, let me tell you that this one is different. It's actually the best one out there. I have been to probably all winners in Laval and Montreal and i always come back to this one. I don't know why, but they always have the best merchandise ever. I mean, you will always end up buying something from there. Other Winners are good but not as good as this one.

It's a Winners, you know, it is what it is. But for what it is, if they have what you need, it's…read morekind of awesome. I needed some exercise clothes and some clothes for a camp trip and figured I'd pop in here before heading to MEC down the street and honestly, I found everything I needed for a quarter of the price. Of course they don't have any specialty equipment, and some of it is luck, for sure, depending on what rolls through the door. Winners gets brand name and fairly high quality apparel and home decor but they it in get piles of random sizes and colours or lines that just didn't sell enough to escape the bargains. For athletic clothes it was great. I found lined, water-wicking pants good for winter camping or jogging in the cold, merino wool long johns that I may not take off till July, high wasted super comfy and thick leggings, and cuuuute sports tops. It's important to feel cute if you're going to be sweaty. I also found a bunch of stuff I considered buying for the house but decided to wait. Worth checking out for the prices though, especially if you;re already in the area to check out a movie or MEC or the Marche Central.

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

I was psyched when they opened a store next to my company's office in NY, but bummed to discover they didn't have a kids selection. While in Montreal I was determined to find a Joe Fresh with a kids department, especially since the regular womans clothing won't fit my big belly these days. Joe- us pregnos would love a maternity line! This Joe Fresh isn't in the supermarket, but has it's own store connected to it. Personally I like that better since it seems a bit strange to me to shop for clothes while shopping for groceries. It's a beautiful space and most importantly they have a HUGE kids selection. I had only about 45 minutes until I had to leave for the airport (I literally was rolling my suitcase around the store) and filled my arms with tons of clothes for my little girl at home, as well as my baby boy on the way. Thank goodness I had just had my gender revealing ultrasound just days before stepping into this Joe Fresh. The total came to about $300 for what seemed was an entire fall/winter wardrobe for both kids. I had a bit of a paranoid moment when my VISA didn't go thru and they don't take AMEX. Canada doesn't seem to want to take my money! Fortunately, my Canadian coworker came thru for me and put the clothes on her credit card...and I wrote her a check. I'm still not sure how I fit all the new clothes in my suitcase, but it helps that clothes for toddlers and newborns are extremely small. Visiting this store was one of the highlights of my fabulous weekend in Montreal. I really do hope they open a store in Chicago one of these days and when they do I hope Joe remembers to add a kids department.

This Joe Fresh is really unique as it's located in an old train station, it's a spacious and…read morebeautiful building although it is a little odd, the lighting and ventilation aren't the best. I found the inside quite dark. I love how big the changing rooms are though and there's never many people shopping at once, sales girls don't hassle you so you can browse through at your own pace. Joe Fresh has some really colorful and fashionable designs however in the past couple years I've noticed a drastic change in the quality of their clothing. The fabrics are too thin and cheap looking. They used to have basic tees and tank tops that would withstand many washes but now they get stretched out too easily and don't seem to last. The styles and prices remind me of H&M, only, the fit is a little too loose and not made for the tall and thin. Pants are always short for me. My favorite items are from their sleepwear and lounge collection, and I particularly like their clearance aisle - you can always find nice pieces for less than 10 bucks. My bf got a pair of watermelon red cargo shorts for 7$ and I got pjs for 5$. What a steal!

Somehow I had lost my winter hat at a cathedral in Montreal so we were walking around looking for a…read moregood hat that wasn't necessarily marked up because it had some brand name or designer logo on it. We saw several overpriced hats at other stores and then ventured into Uniqlo. We don't have one near but but the feel of it was right for what I wanted. We found a reasonably priced hat with their supposed HeatTech technology, and it was very reasonably priced. It served me fine the rest of our time in Canada. I was surprised it's actually a Japanese brand.

OMG this is a bloody amazing store!…read more My mom used to visit her sister in Boston, primarily to go to the Uniqlo store there, and then she'd visit me in Seattle, and then Vancouver when I moved there, and the first thing on her list was always to go to the Uniqlo stores in that city. It's always been a go-to store for her and my dad, as it always has had the BEST basic wardrobe staples - and then some! - in sizing that FITS, and of excellent quality. It was just such a big bummer that my folks had to travel far and wide to get to any of their stores. And they had nightmare experiences, trying to order stuff from their website. It was important for them to actually try on the clothing. So it was great anticipation that we all waited for this store to open up in Montreal! I sent my mom status updates, on the store opening, for months before it opened, and she is just in heaven now that the store is in her city! I visited the store yesterday and even though I had read about it being the flagship Canadian store and all its features, I was still blown away by it. It is gorgeous! Huge, well laid-out, excellent signage, clean, open, spanning two levels. With all the excellent clothing for men, women and kids that they are known for. They have always had excellent sales, and right now, they are selling their winter jackets for a steal (and they are known for their winter jackets, along with base layers/thermal "Heat" layers). In fact, a lot of their winter gear is on sale right now, and they have an enormous selection of everything. So if you're in the market for cold weather clothing, you need to get there ASAP. All Uniqlo offer free hemming of their pants if they are too long on you (I've used this free feature a few times in their Seattle store. It was great!). I've gotten lots of clothes here and they've all withstood years of hard wear, so I'm a big fan. And now with this new, jazzy store, Montreal, you got it made!
