West Edmonton Mall, Alberta, Canada

This is a huge somewhat outdated in appearance, but clean two-story mall with lots of stores, basically like any other mall in any other city, although limited washroom facilities for size of mall. It has food court with fast food, or Bourbon Street (a New Orleans style décor) wing of higher-end food. We ate at Moxie’s where we learned that Canadians like very, very sweet ice tea! Moxie’s had very good food and a very nice waitress. The West Edmonton Mall has Galaxy World (amusement park, somewhat expensive for what you get), Water World (see the 7/25 post on that), Sea Lion shows, and more. We met some people who go to Edmonton just for the mall and spend days there. Not really our thing.

Tip – get an Edmonton Visitors Guide and inside will have a coupon for a free coupon book (can purchase for $4) at Guest Services. It has some coupon savings at restaurants and stores. If it’s not the high season (summer) there are 2-for-1 coupons at Water Park, Galaxy World, mini-golf, etc…
