CF Toronto Eaton Centre

On our one day trip to Toronto, we decided to go to the mall in the morning to shop a bit before we headed down to CN Tower and explore the other areas. I really liked how spacious the mall was. Great stores on 3 levels.
The reason I am giving this one star instead of anything better, is because I went to use the restroom before we left the mall and it had to have been the dirtiest, most disgusting restroom I have ever been in. I mean, airport restrooms are much cleaner than this. Thinking this mall is fairly clean, let me use the rest room here. I walked in and my goodness, there was toilet paper ALL OVER literally in every stall. Water or god knows what was on the floors. I mean just flat out filthy and gross. This is definitely not sanitary and should be reported to the city… Which I might actually do.
Just thinking about it, makes me sick to my stomach. I walked out of there with the disgusted look on my face and told my boyfriend that I refuse to use the restroom there.

One of the perks of huge mall like Eaton Centre is that it has everything under one roof, clothing store, gadget store, restaurant, etc. However it can get too crowded during peak hours and its that time of the day that I try to avoid coming here. noisy and rude parents, kids and teens who are seriously irritating roam every aisle.

I like going there and just browsing the plethora of stores. I go there about one a month to find a gem I like be it clothing or a toy or gadget for my niece and nephews. I always treat myself to fast food at the end of my shopping adventure and my feet are usually exhausted by the end. My only thing is that it is super busy all year round, so if you are going there to relax it might not be the option for you unless, you find a busy mall relaxing.

Great place to shop if you happen to be downtown
They have a wide variety of stores, you can almost find all the stores here. It gets super crowded on weekends.

Eaton Centre is definitely one of my favourite shopping malls ever! It’s accessible via TTC (Dundas Station), located within walking distance of a million restaurants, and also has the perfect selection of stores inside the mall.
There’s an eclectic mix of high-​end/​low-​end shops as well as the choice between a regular, everyday food court or the fancy one on the other side of the mall. If you’re sick of eating mall-​food you can walk to any trendy restaurant outside of Eaton. If you’re not into shopping, that’s okay– you can cross the street to watch a movie if you want!
There are huge department stores as well, such as Hudson’s Bay and (drumroll please) Saks Fifth Avenue, which is opening soon! If you walk outside a bit you’ll reach a smaller mall that contains Muji and Red Lobster.
The great thing about Eaton is its proximity to so many delicious restaurants and other attractions. It’s a pretty solid tourist choice, but also one of my favourite places to frequent (on a less busy weekday, of course).

Still has a great selection of stores & now Saks Fifth Ave has opened up next to The Bay. Nordstrom’s is due to open in fall 2016 I believe. I can see this place getting even more busy. So I like to shop early on a Saturday morning to avoid crowds. I’m not sure about the food court though. I tried Big Smoke Burger (seems overpriced) & Crêpe Delicious (not tasty). I’ve tried Urban Herbivore in the past which is good but also seems overpriced. I just want something hot, simple, tasty & not costing an arm or leg. I’ll try a different place in the food court next time & hope its good.

Eaton Centre is a magnet for people! This place is never busy. Mix of high end and mid end stores, of you’re lucky you’ll find some bargains.
One of the biggest malls in Toronto, so be prepared to walk a long way. Mall is directly connected to Dundas and Queen subway stations, along with ‘The Path’ (Toronto’s subterranean system).

being one of the largest malls in Ontario, isn’t easy, it comes with some of the highest priced stores in Canada. this mall has been a staple for all sorts of events, which seemingly always makes everyday, a different day, if that makes sense. always something going on, might work better. this mall is also almost always under renovation of some sort, what with sears now out of the picture, that whole «end» of the mall is closed for incoming stores. super transit friendly with a subway station on both ends of the mall, plus streetcars and buses accessible on the ground level. best to avoid the upper levels as the higher you go up, the more expensive it is.
a good way to kill a day at this mall (with it only being closed twice a year with awesome hours), with lots of shopping and food options available! lots of parking in the garage, or the surrounding areas.

I stayed in the One King West Hotel and through the hotel there is an underground passageway that leads into the underground historical district. Through that district, I was able to navigate my way to the Eaton Centre. I later found out that it would have been SO much easier to have just gone from the street and follow Yonge street all the way down but that’s neither here nor there.
I really liked this mall. There was everything I needed in a big shopping mall like this. I found really really good deals but then again, it might just be that the US Dollar was so strong and maybe that may have had an influence on my views but nonetheless, I liked the deals here.
I suggest not going to the upper floors as my experience was that they are retailers who deal with the more financially lucky out of us all. unless of course you’re looking for that kind of thing. What I liked most was all the Holiday decorations they had up. The giant tree and those huge deer/​elk, they made the place look really magical.

Pros: Simple mall layout, easy to find everything you need; 3 Starbucks so that is awesome for you starbucks lovers. The chapters is beautiful, some nice stores in the mall and pretty good sales from time to time. Right downtown so you can be apart of all the action. Lots of food to choose from in food court. Lots of restaurants near the eaton center too. Close to several subway stops.
Cons: Dirty washrooms (The sinks have built up scum on the back splash), Apple store has the worst cx service… tried buying a brand new Mac pro with cash and it took 45 minutes on a Wednesday. Food court is too noisy and busy
Overall, lots of amazing memories at The Eaton Centre. Also to anyone who reads this, you should look up the T. Eaton Co. Limited. The malls name carries with it some very interesting HISTORY ! :)

Silly me for coming here on Black Friday… total chaos! However the beautiful Xmas decorations had me in ore… love love love!

Don’t be fooled by reviews stating this is the «biggest mall in Canada» as it is not… in fact I’m not even sure it’s the biggest mall in Toronto. The Eaton Centre was part of the urban renewal of downtown Toronto and is a hit and miss in its efforts.
While not the biggest mall… it is fairly large… stores on three levels that are connected to both the subway and PATH (Toronto’s huge subterranean system). Anchored by Queen St to the south and Dundas St to the north, it runs a full city block. Just across Queen St (to the South) is the Bay… with its iconic window displays at Christmas… not to be missed.
During peak hours (Monday — Friday — 11:00am — 2:00pm) it is busy with local workers shopping for deals. It can get very crowded and the food court line ups ridiculously long. Ditto for after work (4:30pm — 7pm). After that is quiets down. Avoid at all costs on Boxing Day and any day that there’s a parade downtown or an event at Nathan Phillips Square. Its a magnet for people on those days.
One big bonus is that you can shop downtown on a rainy day and not get wet, or not wear a coat during a cold winter snap…

Big, definitely big!
As a Vancouverite, who hasn’t been to West Edmonton mall, this was a huge mall, multi level! It was well maintained and the washroom were very clean!
It had a lot of shopping choices but I personally didn’t find a huge amount of deals. The bottom floor has the Starbucks, if you want a quick recharge!

The Eaton Center is a far cry from what it used to be with the Eaton department store. While I was there the whole place was under construction and no one seems to know exactly how the massive reconstruction is going to turn out. It was still loaded with plenty of stores, but really mostly all chains with everything very much the same as may be found in any mall within the United States, but even with a dollar conversion, generally at significantly higher prices.
Access to and from the Toronto Subway system remains very much the same, easy to access and user friendly.
As the Eaton Center is huge, maybe the largest center city mall in North America, my hope is that their renovation efforts with again make it a worthwhile center to visit and shop. In the meantime with all of the construction, it is hardly worth while going out of your way to visit.

A great clean shopping environment. A few of my stores caught my eye not by their brand but their decoration. They have a organize directory like most malls and the food court is like HEAVEN (comparing to New York — New Yorker here).
We came on a Saturday morning and parking was $ 8 for the day which was not bad. We even had a chance to walk to City hall area (approximately 15 minutes walk). We tried not to go in the stores since we basically have most of products in New York and it wouldn’t be worth it since Canada’s taxes are double. Our focus became what to eat for brunch in Eaton Centre food court. Their was so many varieties and they weren’t all fast food. Their food court was so big and clean it was just amazing. It made me think to myself I wouldn’t mind living in Toronto and coming here everyday! Would come back for sure c (;
(Only con side was around 2 – 3 it became extremely crowded. Bathrooms was not as clean)

A busy mall with many tourists during peak hours– fairly large but poorly designed for the volume of people.
It’s a reasonable walk from my office so I’ll pop by on weekday mornings if I need to run errands. I refuse to shop here on Fridays or weekends.
Average stores, average amenities, utterly average.

Decided to to my annual summer trek to this mall on Friday. 100% tourist but it has all the stores you need/​want to peruse through. Although I still classify it as elitist kinda mall since each level is a step up from the next. The 3^rd level has mostly high end stores and of course has less people walking around, the 2^nd floor has the mid end stores and generally the most people milling about and of course the first floor is generally where you find the low end, teeny bopper stores. and well where most of the teens are.
It’s huge, pretty much every store you’ve heard of and them some you haven’t are located here. They recently renovated all the food courts in here, making it more like the Yorkdale food court (thank god cuz both those food courts looked really bad). It’s more high end and in my opinion suitable to tourists as it provides better options than the fast food picks before.
Easy to get to by subway or driving (paid parking lot) or justby walking depending on where you live.
The Sears that was there is no longer there, boarded off. Sad really, but I hear Nordstrom’s will be taking it’s place so I’m sure that will generate some new interest.
I do like going at Christmas as well to check out their decorations, they do them well with the huge tree in the centre of the mall, and what would be the Eaton Centre without those iconic birds?
You definitely cannot beat this place for people watching… just choose your level!

As far as malls in Canada go, this one is top notch. It has a lot of selection in one place and a lot of great and unique places to eat. There is a good mix of high end stores (Ted Baker, Michael Kors, Coach) to inexpensive stores (Zara, H&M, Hollister).
The Good:
1. Selection. There really is something for everyone here. Eaton Centre boasts a lot of great stores.
2. Food. There are lots of places to eat and the places to sit are unique and quite comfortable.
The Bad:
1. Busy. This place is always super busy, especially on weekends. It’s a hub for annoying tourists who don’t understand universal escalator protocol.
2. Layout. The layout is not the best, especially now that Sears is gone and you can’t stroll through there to get to Dundas street (you need to go down a level or two then go back up).
Recommendation: visit the mall on off hours and during the week. Your head will thank you!

I still classify this as a tourist mall but it still has its practicalities. It’s a tourist attraction so ya it will be open when other malls are closed sometimes…
It’s a huge mall, huge. Restaurants, stores, a subway station at either end but it’s most convenient to just traverse though say from Queen to Dundas while staying inside.
Renovations? Chains? This place has both in what seems to be a forever type thing. The Hudson’s Bay on the Queen end and whatever US based department store on the Dundas side. Open spaces, multiple levels, see through elevators and a renovated Urban Eatery. How new is this place? The Richtree open market cafeteria style restaurant has taken over the older dungeon type bottom floor mini-​open concept type of eatery what once was the old tucked away overcrowded and noisy southern food court.
My favorite entrance/​exit has to be the side with Trinity Square side that leads towards City Hall and Trinity Church.
There is no more Eaton’s (to which the entire mall was named) which was the department store at the Dundas end of the mall but the name lives on.
Update: Eaton’s formally Sears north side department store will be Nordstroms.

The Eaton Centre serves as the première mall in downtown Toronto. One must appreciate the open expanse of the mall and the clean upscale feel! It has your typical mall shops (over two hundred of them) plus a solid food court. The traffic volume through here is probably the most for a mall in Canada.
One thing quite humorous that I noticed in December was a big panel of TV screens with a fire scene sizzling in the background! I once saw this in a hotel room in Edmonton and I laughed but at the Eatons centre? Lol!
This mall defines the mall experience it is a crowning jewel in the Cadillac Fairview portfolio. A great place to get out of the cold to warm up on winter or head for some gifts for yourself or someone else!

Pas mal comme centre commercial, on y trouve à peu près toutes les grandes enseignes de vêtements et produits culturels.
C’est un peu comme Châtelet les Halles sans le labyrinthe de couloirs voire plus les 4 temps à La Défense.
Le plus c’est le food court que vous trouverez à peu près dans tous les centres commerciaux de ce type. On y sert tout type de cuisine dans un modèle «restauration rapide».

perfect mall with a good food court and pretty good stores. I have to say that I particularly love the Abercrombie store!

Sehr sehr sehr größtes Kaufhaus als in Deutschland. Mit vielen Weihnachtsschmuck schöön

A&F findet man hier. Für Touris ein guter Anlaufpunkt, da in anderen Städten wie NYC Abercrombie total überlaufen ist. Hier kann man «in Ruhe» (abgesehen von der extrem lauten Musik) gut einkaufen. Das Sortiment ist relativ gut verfügbar und nicht, wie in anderen Städten, nur die Größen S und XL ;-)

Bei unserem letzten Besuch in Kanada, waren wir auch in Toronto und haben das Eaton Centre besucht. Freunde hatten es uns empfohlen.
Hier bekommt man wirklich eine Menge geboten.
Vor allem auch Dinge, die es bei uns in Europa nicht so ohne weiteres gibt.
Mehr gibt es eigentlich nich zu schreiben, da meine Vorgänger schon die wichtigsten Details benannt haben.

Das Eaton Centre ist ein konventionelles Einkaufszentrum, mit einem Abercrombie & Fitch Laden. Meines Wissens einer der wenigen in Kanada.

Das Eaton Cntre leitg sehr zentral in Toronto. Es hat mehrer Stockwerke und ist an das unterirdische Einkaufsnetz angebunden.
Es gibt hier nichts was man nicht findet: Geschäfte aller Art, Schue, Kleidung, Elektronik und im Food Court natürlich Fast Food an allen Ecken und Enden.
Man kann hier prima einige Stunden verbringen und die letzten Dollars vorm Abflug unters Volk bringen :)

Das Eaton Centre ist ein mehrstöckiges Einkaufszentrum in der City von Toronto.

hier kann man sehr gut shoppen gehen. leider ist der kanadische dollar nicht so schwach wie der amerikanische. aber für europäische verhältnisse dann doch noch günstig. die mall ist direkt im herzen von toronto. nur ist die mall an sich eher düster. die auswahl an shops ist aber großartig. für die marken, die man in europa schwer bekommt, shoppt man hier genau richtig!

Das Eaton Centre ist ein riesiges Einkaufszentrum, wo man sich theoretisch ca eine Woche aufhalten kann, bis man alles gesehen hat. Man kann so ziemlich alles bekommen, vor allem Klamotten, unten im Keller ist ein food court, hier kann man international essen: italienisch, griechisch, asiatisch was das Herz begehrt
