Oakridge Park Reviews
Rated out of 5![]()
The renewed Oakridge Park is easily becoming one of the most impressive gathering spots for people living in South Vancouver. The architecture is beautiful, modern, and incredibly spacious. The underground parking is probably one of the best-designed parking facilities I've seen in Vancouver. Each parking spot has a light indicator above it—green means available, red means occupied—which makes finding a space much faster. There are also plenty of EV charging stations throughout the parkade.
One thing that could be improved is the wayfinding. There aren't enough signs to help visitors understand which parking area leads to which part of the mall, so it can be a bit confusing on your first visit.
At the moment, though, the mall still feels unfinished. Many sections on the upper levels aren't fully developed yet, and some stores seem to be open mainly to fill space. The lower level has a few smaller shops, while the upper floors are dominated by luxury brands. If you're looking for popular everyday retailers like Apple, Uniqlo, or Sephora, you won't find them here right now.
The biggest highlight is definitely Time Out Market. It's great to see several well-known local restaurants bringing exclusive or limited menu items into one location. Prices are not unreasonable, although the selection is still smaller than I expected. I also really like how all the food vendors follow a consistent design style—it makes the whole space feel polished and well planned.
Right now, you can probably walk through the entire mall in about 30 minutes. It has a lot of potential, and I'm excited to see what it becomes over the next few years. Hopefully more retailers and attractions will open soon to make better use of such an impressive space.

Vancouver needed this mall!! It has a lot of expensive shops but consultants are not the nicest people inside. They are following your every single step (almost like they think you are going to shoplift). So that was kinda uncomfortable. But overall the mall looks so good, the architecture is solid. The Nespresso station is so cool, they have free coffee to try, which was very nice. The food courts are so chic, looking more like restaurants! They serve very nicely on platters, even if it’s fast food. I tried Indian food from Peacock, it was so good, I am not disappointed! The prices are so high but it was worth it.

Oh wow, the place is gorgeous and super spacious! However can’t afford most things there since it is mostly luxury brands!
Love that they have cool places to sit in various parts of the mall including a cool seating area for performances.
The food court is nice with lots of high end restaurants (with high end prices)
Now the parkade is something that can be overwhelming! It is massive and hard to find things! Be sure to take a photo of the section you are in so you will remember what floor and section!
Many of the doors you go to are locked on mention under construction. So we did walk quite far to get to the mall entrance. Everything is zig zag so not easy to find like we thought (we had told ourselves we walked straight and to the left, however we forgot which entrance we entered from.
There is lots of charging. There is a Flo charger that is suppose to be free (per Flo) and a million other chargers that are grouped in set areas and the. Random ones on The walls of the columns/poles. Bad thing about this is it’s not your standard ChargePoint or flo so you need to download another app. I registered and the. Realized it wanted me to put funds into the new account in order to use it. I don’t want to have another account with money so we forgo’d in the charging

Oakridge Mall is a nice and convenient place to visit in Vancouver. The location is great, with easy access by SkyTrain and public transit. The area is clean and well maintained, and it has a calm and modern atmosphere. There are good options for shopping, coffee, and walking around. Overall, it’s a pleasant place to spend some time, and I look forward to seeing it continue to improve.

Really like the interior space, wide corridors. I like the interior planters, kind of references the original mall. Most of the stores are very high-end. Hopefully there will be a few more mid-range stores. The super promoted Time Out food Hall does live up to it's name. Mostly very expensive but the quality of superb. I would return for dinners. There are some reasonable dishes for lunch but not on a regular basis. Cool looking restroom, but no privacy between urinals, WHY?.
Beautiful outdoor plaza. Will be great once finished.
