Just sad now that so many stores are closed and with covid, there's no sitting around for coffee or keno in the center. There's a few medical office upstairs which is convenient for parking etc.

Seems empty since Wal-Mart came through

Eric Viklund

Unfortunate there are so many vacancies, but always enjoy the stop.

Woah Jen

The usual I guess. I'm used to the place. Wasn't much there.

Stellar Jake

Nice place, unfortunate so much of it is vacant

D Woolls

Attractive. Clean. Good stores. Too many empty stores. No restaurant.

Holden Ratcliffe

The source got me a Xbox series x and I'm really happy. Thanks guys!

Amanda C

I can't really say anything bad considering it is the only shopping mall in our town, but the number of stores inside seems to be steadily decreasing. If your looking for a quiet, peaceful place to shop then this mall is for you!

Dirt Krazy1

It's just cool to see a mall at such a smaller town in the kootenays. The store there are good and it even has a food court.

Quint Eastwood

Nice little mall, has a good court and play center for kids

Stephen Carr

Very few stores, many vacant spaces. Very little choice in the food court.

Jim Miller

This is a poor mall. A lot of empty spots for years now.

Norma Tessier

A great mall that could use a few more shops to add variety.

Cynthia Healy

Great place spent the afternoon listening to live music and watched the little ones visiting Santa very enjoyable afternoon outing.

Trevor Nichol

Great place to come to avoid the BC heat

Kim Melsom

Great place to get your shopping done...⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Zaphira Mirian

Great place good food this place has everything and also has a great place to let the kids play with the ballroom and ball pit

Brandon Eisner

Used to be such a busy place but as soon as Zellers shut down it almost lost it's soul it's a whole mall with only 4 or 5 main stores, needs updating as well everything is old and outdated,the sushi in the tiny food Cort is very good though

Nelson Rooks

Nice place.Had Asian food and it was good.

Why is there No bread

Most the stores kinda suck

John Boucher

The convenience of one stop shopping from Groceries, Lotto, Clothing and more.

Christopher Cerovec

My favourite place to get chinese food when I come to Trail & having Dollarama and No Frills is worth the shop ????????????

Julie K

Cool little shops, a bit pricey but worth a look

Tracy W

Could use more stores, maybe a shoe store.

Danny McDonald

Place is a joke!! Go to Nelson's mall....much better!!

Darryl Marko

More of a ghost town every time I visit. Coffee place now closed. Depressing.

Attila Papp

Looks the same after 25 yrs.....didn't stop to check it out tho

Divine• Love•Jerilee

The mall is great. Great stores, great food. But I have to warn parents to NOT let there children play in the “SICK PIT”........that ball pit “NEVER” gets cleaned!!.. Yuk!... think about it... Everyyyy time we go there my daughter gets a nasty cough congestion cold...The play room floor is super clean, but the play jungle is NEVER washed.!! I Wish they’d have someone Go inside of it and CLEAN the WHOLE play room and not just the floor...... but it’s super old and outdated. Needs to be redone as it’s FULL of SICK germs. Other wise... the play room is so much fun..

Aaron Ronaldson

Children's play place! Doctors and chiro upstairs. No Frills and Dollarama are great. Sleepy little mall. Food court lacks options, but there is a Tim Hortons in the parking lot.

Purple Angel

The best part of this mall is the Dollarama, located beside No Frills!

John Feesey

Decent well lit food court,Asian,Italian.Nice bookshop,electronics store.Dollarama always busy.My wife likes the women's shops.Anchored by a No Frills.

Andrew Vliet

This mall has always struggled. The book store is small, but good. Try the Chinese food, and let the kids play in the ball room?

OluFemi Aromolaran

Dollarama, Nofrills and other shopping centers.

Rick Grant

Needs more retailers.Old Zellers space still empty after a long vacancy.

Paddy ODonnell

It's gotngas, grocery and Tim Hortons all in one parking lot.

Eugene Vaniderstine

It's a good place to go.

Bijil Babu

good mall with all necessary stores & bank at one place

Shawn Haggerty

Ok shopping. Has extra foods

Jonah Ray

Quiet mall

Popov Leather

Really weird place to hang out, pretty dead. But the Chinese food is good.

Jeffrey Turcotte

This poor mall is a shell of its former self, like so many others.

Heather “Tooth fairy” Coupland

quick and curteous staff and the Donuts are delicious!

John Becher

Good people there

Andrew Douglas Berg

Awesome place to shop for all kinds of things.

Heather Reid

An empty mall, basically. Where's all the stores? What's there is good.

J Whitey

Had what I need. Lots of parking too.

Tony Smoch

Beginning to open up again but still a little slow and under prepared.

Joshua Manna

Fastest Chinese food in town always comes from the mall!

David Brisendine

Clean and ready for business with all the proper safety/ health protocols in place. Check individual stores for hours of business as each location can have different times they are open. Food Court is different now (social distancing is being observed here) but what hasn't nowadays?

Dagmar C

Very nice and new plaza, some neat stores and also some children entertainment.

Tyrone Siebert

I work here. I wish we had more stores we have a good community with the shop owners/key employees which makes it a great place to work and shop. Come check it out.

Leather Smith

Awesome kids play area, good bookstore and great Chinese takeaway!

Rino Lattanzio

Food court is good.

Connie Dewell

Needs more stores

Guy Tapanila

Like any plaza the storefront setup is an easy access mall strip!

Brenda Trainor

Nobody came to help a crippled woman pick up things she had dropped. There should be a helping hand for people with disabilities it's pathetic.

Shiloh Irwin

Empty mall, hardly any stores, old ball pit for kids to play in (tho they should upgrade). Tim Hortons is close by only upside to mall.. Better off going to walmart, unless the dollar store or grocery store is what you need.

Sandra Thederahn

Small Mall. Not much to see or shop

Kathleen Pearson

I went to the dollar store, and picked up a few things. Reasonably inexpensive shopping.

Nancy Prime

Not many stores left.

Anne Boutilier

Shop the Dollarama, its always fun. Was there yesterday, spent $40, but still needed something today. These places are addictive, not only do they carry a bit of everything, but you see Everyone there. Great place to see the neighbors on a rainy day. Lots of fun stuff to look at. Gotta love the $ store.

jim f

Half the stores are closed. Hurting mall.

Gustavo F N

Nice mall. If it has more food options would be better.

Jody Ashdown

Trail mall. Lits of shops, food court and groceries

Vipin Wadhwa

Good place to eat and shop!

Kim Stokes

Quit and small but still very nice place to shop

Nolan V

Good mall for a small city.

Guy Stokes

Not that many stores now, management seems to want to drive out businesses instead of trying to draw in new stores. Several really good stores inside like Pro Vision Optical, the Book and Game Shop, and a couple of others. Very small food court

Doug Mason

No Frills is anchor tenant. Many "stores" closed including Zellers which has not been replaced with another retail.

First Aid Construction

Meh

Colin Lohrer

Few stores, terrible food court

Kelly St. John

Old and tired.

Original Beegirl

Good to see new stores going into the mall! Yeah and happy to see Trail getting a Pet Valu

Jennifer Burton

Good place to go when you want the kids to let of steam. Ball park is nice, wish it were cleaner, just make sure you wash little hands and feet after.

mike gyuricza

Good people friendly clean environment

Laurie Martin

Tim Hortons here has the best service! Linda was so awesome to everyone!

Bryan Phillips

Half the mall is empty and there is not much of a selection in the stores that are there

Andy Forlin

Good air conditioning cool place To shop

Alan Spara

The mall in general was great, unfortunately the bank there made a mistake that caused my wife having to return back there to get them to correct it. Once she found the clerk that made the mistake it did get corrected.

Sharon Stonge

Love it. They have the beat dollar store.. dollarama as well a food court with amazing Chinese food.. a play area for kids.. and some of the best clothing stores from high end to fashion with an economic value and finally the best grocery store ever.. no frills.. just like the name suggests.. no frills allows for better prices outside of the big chains with supermarkets.

Shawn Harden

Dirty Tim's, flys all over food

Dave (DavesElectronicals)

Stopped for groceries and Colander Restaurant takeout. Mall is mostly empty.

S K

Good local mall, could use a few more stores

JustBeLazy Miraculous Stories

The floors were unclean and not very pleased to see that.

Carol DeBiasio

For a small town, the Waneta Plaza still offers a variety of stores. Fun for the kids, and HS a small food court. Whether you need clothing, food or electronics, there is usually something for everyone. Even a dollar store.

SL Knopp

Alot of empty areas in the mall Very little traffic Not very exciting But it has good sized dollar store, no frills, the source and bootleggers and warehouse1 there's few other stores as well.

Frank Crockett

Very quiet around there. Hope business picks up.

Donna Hawkins

Really just a shell of what it used to be

Steel Dove

Has a bit of everything. Optical store, food, groceries, clothing, electronics, and dollar store items. There's even a church upstairs.

Gurleen Aujla

One of the old managers at ardene is horrible.She is rude and arrogant.You dont feel welcomed at all in ardene.Worst shopping experience ever.Dont wanna go back to this store ever shopping if I see that manager again in store.Horrible lady.

arose58

Very nice mall for the area. It has a No Frills and a Dollarama for those not wanting to spend much plus a Bootlegger, Warehouse 1, Ricki's and Suzannes for clothes. There is also a small foodcourt with 3 kiosk, Chinese, Italian and Sushi.

Eleanor Schmutz

Waneta Plaza is great, lots of free parking with fast easy shopping. It just needs a restaurant like Cora's or something like that

Linda Latter

We aren't the best to ask, just stopped momentarily as it was snowing. Waited for snow plough.

Sharon Jackson

Lots of the stores have closed. Would like to see it revitalized.

Colleen Kassian

They have a couple good clothing stores

Troy Pennock

Clean mall. They need to fill the old Zellers spot.

Michelina Kearney

Not a lot here couple great local stores and a Source store. Great dollar store. Shoes, clothes and best Got Juiced ever

Lora DeJong

Need more places to shop! Tired of just having Walmart as a main store for shopping. No wonder everybody goes across the line. Need more places to shop! Tired of just having Walmart as a main store for shopping. No wonder everybody goes across the line.

Small food court with some good choices, but not many store fronts.

Emma MacLean

It's a mall! Nothing fancy, I love the bookstore and nofrills. The dollarama has awesome snacks for a good price.

Kathy McGinty

Every visit to Trail, Suzanne's is must. Great store beautiful cloths. Top notch helpful staff. Thank you Suzanne's every visit I leave with a huge smile. ❤

Dick Gademans

They don't seem to care to entice businesses to set up in the mall

Catherine Swaddling

Property Manager is excellent.

Matt J

A decent enough place for what is available in the Kootenays. Has a ball pit for the kids located by the food court

Connie Bazant

I love most of it but today I tried The Collander in the food court and it was horrible. I ordered a Philly Cheese Steak Sub and it wasn't even put together right. The cheese was under the meat and the whole thing was cold. I noticed the girl in the front comment about the cheese and the girl in the back say " It's on there!" My experience has been having the cheese melted on top! Collander cook doesn't care! Never Again!

Jan Greenhalgh

Everything you could possibly need . All in one place

Alexander Ryan

The mall has several vendors including a No Frills supermarket, Dollarama, warehouse one clothing store, The source electronic store, Scotiabank, a food court including the colander express and sushiyo,a small art gallery, a fitness supplement store, a pets' store and doctors'/nurse practitioners' offices upstairs. It is a two stories building.There's a dining area infront of the food court and public washrooms are available in both stories. The area used to be zellar's is empty but now it is being used as the COVID vaccination centre for trail. Enough free parking space is available.

Crockett's: Crockett's bookstore is amazing, and has been running for as long as I can remember. The staff are extremely friendly, and although they can't stock too much, they carry the newest titles. I've recently special ordered two books from them, and it was a very quick and easy process, just do a quick search on your phone and give them the ISBN number of the title you'd like. Pretty sure this is now one of the few places in the region to buy Magic: The Gathering cards, since the card shop closed a while back. They have good board games and random memorabilia, too! No Frills: There's a No Frills grocery store as well, and while I visit every other week. They're the only place around that sells Marble Pop, and if you haven't tried novelty Japanese sodas before, you should grab one! I Got Juiced: Another stop I make every week! High quality smoothies, made with only fruits and veggies, as well as frozen yogurt and borscht. The staff and owner are friendly and chatty. I recommend the Coffee Lovers and Aloha smoothies. Make sure you get a card, as every fifth (I think?) small drink is free. Ardene's: Ardene's always has cute products and VERY nice shoes... I usually grab at least one pair of socks when I'm there. That might not be for a while, as the last time I visited, the general atmosphere was horrible. The two older women working were not hospitable in the slightest, one of them actually responding rather rudely when we simply mentioned we were going to try on some boots. We didn't feel welcome at all, quite the opposite, and couldn't wait to get out. It's going to be a long time before we even look at that store again. The worst shopping experience I've had in some time. Food court: Honestly, I've only tried the Colander Express, but I hear all the food here is good! As far as the Colander goes, it's just as good as the full-size Colander restaurant downtown. The meatball subs are amazing, and-... I think I'm drooling. I'll have to get one today... If you like pasta, you can't go wrong with this place, or it's bigger counterpart. The rest of the mall consists of a few clothing shops, a hair salon, a supplement store and a dollar store, none of which I visit enough to give substantial feedback. The few times I've been in those over the years have been pleasant with helpful staff.

Martin Menzies

Decent mall but with empty stores. Has the Dollar Store and a great little food court with incredibly good Japanese food run by a Japanese family.

brian Ben

For better or worse, the Chinese food has been the same since I was a kid. I like it

I like the food and shop most of the stores regularly for the convenience of bus stop!
