One of the most popular shopping destinations in North America, Eaton Centre in downtown Toronto grew out of the now defunct Eaton's department store chain that once held much of the land on which it is built.

Timothy Eaton purchased a dry goods business on Yonge Street in 1869 and the Eatons family business grew rapidly from there. The first phase of today's Eaton Centre was opened in 1977. While the Eaton's 'empire' entered bankruptcy in 1999, there are still shopping malls carrying it's name in several Canadian Cities.

Today this shopping centre and office complex is the fourth largest in Canada. It features multiple levels with a galleria style vaulted glass ceiling, a design which has been copied in various forms in malls throughout North America. The centre is also connected to a 17 storey Marriott hotel.

The mall offers over 230 stores, restaurants and services including two food courts. Major retailers include Best Buy, Canadian Tire, H & M, Zara and Saks Fith Avenue. Canada's largest 'flagship' Hudson Bay store is not in the mall, but connected via a covered pedestrian walkway.

Getting to Eaton Centre by public transit is easy with the mall stretching between Queen and Dundas Subway Stations.

4 Star Rating I hope most of the people visit this place during the winter since outside is cool. I been roaming around this place and sometimes do shopping here. In my point of view, Vaughan mill is a better choice for purchasing and processing are reasonable. Worst Nike and under armour outlets here with very limited amount of collection with high price tag. Nice food courts with a lot of variety of food. Simply a better place for people like me to waste the the weekends. The back side entrance from Nathen Phillip square view look impressive.

5 Star Rating Good for singles, couples, families and friends gatherings. A lot of different types of shops for shopping. There is a big food court at the basement level including a lot of different types of cuisines. The mall is usually crowded, especially on weekends. The environment is clean and tidy. There are few restrooms inside the mall which is pretty convenient. The mall is located in the heart of downtown which connects two subway stations Dundas and Queen. I recommend this place for people for chilling, leisure or even business meetings at some of the restaurants here.
