Tess McCannAugust 25, 2012Having a good sense of direction in this mall really helps. 5 years in Vancouver and I still get lost.
Hasti AminiDecember 4, 2014The best place to shop in Greater Vancouver, it also has a target store and a sky train station :)
If your craving sushi, go out to kingsway and go to Sushi Garden. Affordable and delicious.
Great place to shop! You're bound to find something for everyone here. Just be sure to give yourself plenty of time to shop - it's a huge mall afterall!
Watch out for the people who love to text and walk. If they get mad that you bumped into them, it's their own fault!
Nima RasekhiMarch 24, 2022Very crowded on weekends, in the food court with all those seats you can hardly find a vacancy, almost everything you can find here
Poonnapat XuApril 20It’s easy to get there by SkyTrain. The only available ATM I found here is Scotiabank. The mall should make automatic doors and make more restrooms.
Check out U-Grill in the food court - mix whatever you want from their selection and they grill it up and put on the sauce(s) of your choice! Infinite combos + tasty!
If you've got 2 feet & a heart beat TAKE the STAIRS or ESCALATORS, leave the ultra slow elevators to the old, the parents and the politically correct disabled people.
Place is good for stair climbing exercises and accessing transit. Nothing else is good about the mall. Individual stores ok though.
Brandy BernardOctober 20, 2011If you come here in a hurry, expecting to get everything done in a manner even remotely efficient, you're out of your mind.
Carmen ChuOctober 31, 2011Lastly, I decided to spend the rest of the day shopping in BC’s largest shopping centre! If you’re a shopaholic like me, you’ll love this mall!
Brittany JessicaMay 19, 2015Very very crowded and busy. Make sure you look at the directory and plan your trip well otherwise it will take hours.
Busy! Lots of shops, tons of food places. Go here!
It's one-stop shopping. Parking on weekends is pretty bad, especially around Superstore or T&T.
Super slow Wifi. Even Shaw Open takes a beating here #congestion
If ur driving to metrotown and want to impress some friends, family, or a date; swing by the Esso and get a car wash!
Peter JAugust 10, 2014I don't understand how single fathers or families with the dad as main caregiver are supposed to function in this place. Only the women's washrooms have baby facilities. Not impressed.
Super crowed on weekends, but otherwise it's about what you'd expect from a mall.
Cona FletcherNovember 23, 2010PARK IN THE UNDERGROUND! There are two levels of underground and I am ALWAYS the only car in the second level.
StevenFebruary 4, 2016Shopping environment is really so so. Not much high end stores there and not much sales either. Always very crowed day or night.
second largest mall in Canada :) if you're an out of towner, bring your out-of-town id to the customer service desk for a visitors metrocard.- Mall has become terribly run down. More & more stores disappearing & remaining vacant, some indefinitely. Management shuts down escalators to keep operating costs down. It's becoming an embarrassment
Check out metropolis express. Children under 12 ride free and $1.00 donation per person.
There's a footlocker right around the corner from Forever 21 for guys looking to escape from their girlfriends :D
LG Power-UpAugust 22, 2011Found: Metropolis POWER-UP. If you're looking for it, please claim the Power-Up at
Ernest ChanJuly 2, 2011Guys should come here and see all those beautiful legs during the hot summer!!! LoL :P
Get complimentary buggy for your kids(toddler) to be use around the mall. Single & double buggy. Limit 2 hours.
UrbanMonsieur (TM) UrbanMonsieur.comOctober 9, 2011Make sure you've got a lot of patience. The mall is always PACKED!!!!!
- Metropolis Hot Seats contest! enter at customer service for your chance to win tickets to Canucks home games and concerts all season long!
Douglas MelendezFebruary 26, 2012Catching a movie, and getting something to eat and shopping here is fun. :)
Make sure you stop at West 49, best brands at the lowest prices!
Mrs. Fields has the best cookies! Smells amazing in there.
Come check out the Danone - DanActive Display in the Atrium Court and remember to DanActivate every day
