Vancouver is well-known for its rainy Spring season, but we have just the right cure. Escape our city’s Spring showers with a day of shopping at Oakridge Centre. With free parking and convenient access to the bus and Canada Line, it’s also only minutes away from our Oak townhomes.

Open and spacious, Oakridge Centre is a breath of fresh air in the comfort of a shopping mall. Grand windows grace the rooftop, which let in an abundance of natural light. With a focus on fashion, fine jewellery, home decor, and footwear, Oakridge Centre has over 150 shops and services under one beautiful architectural roof. It has truly become the premier shopping destination for Vancouver’s West Side.

First stop: Refreshments

Before jumping into your day of shopping, stop by David’s Tea to sample the newest Spring flavours. You’ll start the day off right with a cup of Pom Tango, Cool Cucumber, or any of the other delicious blends. With over 150 assortments and the largest organic tea collection in North America, it’s also the perfect place to pick up a small gift for family and friends.

Next: Retail Therapy

As one of the largest upscale retail destinations in Vancouver, Oakridge Centre carries an impressive line up of luxury retailers. Explore the new Spring items at MaxMara, one of the city’s three locations, or browse the bespoke tailoring at Harry Rosen. Always breathtaking, it doesn’t hurt to window-shop outside the Tiffany & Co. marble finished walls for that perfect piece of jewellery.

A highlight of Oakridge Centre is the 27,000-square-foot store Crate & Barrel, the first location to open in British Columbia. With a vast selection of contemporary home furnishings, you can find everything your home needs for entertaining or decorating. Watch out—You might just lose yourself for a few hours in here!

Before Leaving: Treat Yourself

Stock up on fresh produce at Kin’s Farm Market before leaving Oakridge Centre. No time to grocery shop? Grab a bundle of fresh blooms instead to freshen your space at home. Finish off your day with a delicious treat from Cupcakes, the perfect amount of sweetness for you or your kids.
