    The North York Centre building is an impressive architectural landmark that exudes sophistication and functionality. Its modern design and sleek aesthetics make it a standout in the area. The building's strategic location, surrounded by amenities and transportation options, adds convenience and accessibility for residents and visitors. While I appreciate its overall appeal and functionality, I believe there is still room for further enhancements to create an even more vibrant and engaging atmosphere. Nonetheless, it remains a valuable asset to the North York community. #ArchitecturalElegance #ConvenientLocation #NorthYorkCentre

    Lots of space to move around, plenty of seating, 6 floor library open late Monday to Friday, access to TTC subway, events in the summer and ice skating in the winter. Community groups, fitness centre, retail outlets, financial institutions, pharmacy and much more. *A quiet place for remote work, school projects and first dates!

    This centre has underground access to the subway which is highly convenient and overall a very nice place, but there are a lot, and I mean a lot of unused retail space. As shown in the picture, the level beneath the ground floor is basically just a Fit4Less, Rexall, and Subway entrance, the rest of the space isnt used. Even on the main floor there are a lot of unused space both in the food court area and just beside it. Would definitely be a much more popular centre if more of the retail space would be used. Other than, I'd say its a very nice place, that has a couple of good choices for food, a fitness centre, a pharmacy, and direct subway access.

    The North York Centre is a commercial block that has a few stores, bank offices, a food court, pharmacy and Toronto Public Library. It connect directly to the North York Centre Subway Station. During lunch time it serves the busy office crowd and transit passengers. It has one of the best public libraries in the city with a tech and sewing hub, which serves the local community. If your in the area this is an interesting place to check out.

    Love this place. It is huge. You have access to North York Central Library which is perfect. You have access to North York subway station, which is only a ride away from Finch subway station, where the bus station is. This place has everything you need. It is clean, modern, and spacious.

    I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for the excellent service I received during my recent visit. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and the facilities were clean and well-maintained. I was particularly impressed by the range of programs and events offered at the Centre. It's clear that you have put a lot of thought and effort into providing a diverse range of activities for the community. Thank you for creating such a welcoming and enjoyable environment. I look forward to my next visit.

    Wonderful place to spend a cold winter day. It's got a library too if your interested in some books or even a DVD 📀 😀

  • 2/5 Erwin S. 2 years ago on Google
    The the people's Civic Centre place was like a tome. Empty of people services, lights out, doors lock. No business transactions available. Everyone was being paid tax dollars to stay at home. - NICE if you can get that type of job!

    This is a good shopping mall, but definitely not for someone who drives a car and want to find a parking lot.

    Every store works different hours and the food court is never open. I go to the library to study everyday and whenever I want to eat it's a struggle to find a place to sit. It is especially an issue when it's cold and raining.

    The electric bell on the square is nothing but a noise nuisance. It's a waste of tax payer money. Nobody needs a "clock" that is never on time and rings at odd hours of the night. People need sleep in order to work in the daytime. Just have it stopped.

    This building is quite beautiful it has a huge foyer, nice cafeteria, access to the North York library, and to the subway, also a novhotel a part of this building, when I did not live in Toronto this was an ideal place to stay because it was less expensive than the hotels in core downtown but the access to subway made everything very convenient

    It's actually a really nice and spacious atrium style office buildings. My favorite part is, unsurprisingly, the big atrium that is between the 2 towers. And if you can see a big food court and many cafes as well as many little services and corporate banks as well, so there's really a little bit of everything that you need. It's great For some indoor walking as well because the space is so ample.

    Convenient place to grab a snack and use the library. I only wish the library printers were more reliable. Generally not busy.

  • 4/5 A L. 7 months ago on Google • 17 reviews
    I pass by here often since it’s connected to my nearest subway station. The library is connected here, there’s a hotel, food court and one of my favourite food spots, Centre Cafe. I hope more stores and food places open up soon, some of them closed due to the pandemic. Overall, can’t complain that I live near here!

  • 3/5 David 1 year ago on Google
    The Centre itself was clean, brightly lit and easy to find, but the interior design in the City Centre undeground lot is horrible. It lacks clear and easy to see exit signage taking you back to street level throughout the lot, parts of the lot were poorly lit and it has a very low height clearance for vehicles. We found navigating the very tightly curved entrance ramp annoying and curbed it coming in to park. Cost-wise it a great Sunday rate, but they should really redevelop the entry and exit ramps. There weren't a lot of folks there on a Sunday which wasn't overly surprising.

  • 4/5 Alicia L. 2 years ago on Google
    Relatively clean station most of the time. The escalators always work compared to other subway stations. The station is also connected very conveniently to some malls.

  • 5/5 Yellowspectere _. 2 years ago on Google
    It's what you expect from a library. Really quiet for studying, everything is clean and for conscience there are coffee shops, convince stores and a small food court for breaks and food.

  • 4/5 Dhirendra Singh J. 4 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Mehrzad M. 1 year ago on Google
    With underground access to the subway and a range of different cuisines offered at its food court, North York Center is a suitable place for a quick bite before catching a train to work.

  • 1/5 Gordon M. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Karen H. 1 year ago on Google
    Lobby was a bit small for our large team to gather in the morning, but lovely breakfast dining are with super attentive staff. Room was very clean, nice newer style shower head- easily adjustable. I was on the 11th floor. Hotel 'attached' to food court/subway/and more which is fantastic so you don't have to go out on rainy/snowy days. Would stay here again :)

  • 3/5 Michael James C. 9 months ago on Google
    It has everything i need. But there is no cohesive opening closing hours in the mall which should remain the same for all businesses but it seems to me RioCan has really dropped the ball in a lot of their properties by letting business keep their own hours. The health food guy is hit and miss as to when he is open

    Love the interior of this mall. It’s so refreshing but isn’t too big. They have a great food court and the public library which are convenient. I usually hangout at la prep cafe. They also have tables in the center of the mall with local goods which I believe is a seasonal thing.

  • 3/5 Kristi B. 2 years ago on Google
    Little mall with a subway station, a drug store, a food court, 2 clothing shops, a gift shop, a dry cleaner, a beauty salon, a chiropractor, 2 jewellery stores, a hotel, a luxury car rental, a discount gym, and the best library in North York.

    This is a review for North York on behalf of Uber Eats delivery workers. The residents of North York are the cheapest people on the planet. Cheaper than Jane and Finch. A $1 tip is considered generous around here.

    I recently had a series of unfortunate experiences in the food court that left me deeply disappointed and frustrated. It was disheartening to witness staff members kicking people out seemingly for no valid reason and displaying discriminatory practices towards children carrying their own food. One of the most distressing incidents was witnessing staff members harass kids and demand that they leave simply because they had brought their own meals. Their justification of a lack of seating felt inconsistent and hypocritical when there were many empty seats available in the food court. It was evident that the enforcement of this rule heavily targeted children, as adults seemed to be exempt from such treatment. Another concerning aspect was the behavior of the security personnel. Rather than providing a sense of safety and assistance, they displayed rudeness and even resorted to swearing at patrons. Such unprofessional conduct only exacerbated the already tense and uncomfortable atmosphere in the food court. The systematic mistreatment and selective enforcement of rules greatly detracted from the overall dining experience. It left a lasting negative impression, discouraging me from returning to the food court in the future. I believe that a food court should be a welcoming and inclusive space for all, where customers can enjoy their meals without fear of unfair treatment or unprofessional conduct. While I understand that managing a food court can be challenging, it is crucial for management and staff members to prioritize customer satisfaction and adhere to a standard of professionalism. Customer service should be rooted in respect and fair treatment, regardless of age, background, or food choices. Additionally, security personnel should be trained to handle situations with tact and respect, ensuring the safety and comfort of all patrons. I sincerely hope that the management of the food court takes these concerns seriously and implements measures to address the issues raised. Everyone deserves an enjoyable dining experience, free from discrimination and rude behavior.
