Rideau Centre: Head down to the Rideau
  • Tip Rating:
  • The main shopping mall in the downtown core is called the Rideau Center (pronounced Ree-doe). It's not a bad mall, but the layout is really poor, and you'll often find yourself lost. Just remember, it's shaped like a big starfish, so if you get too lost, just head towards the center and regroup!

    There are lots of novelty and tourist shops here.. Maple Syrup is a big item, as well as postcards and Ottawa shirts.. I recommend a couple of shot glasses myself =)

    Same price as the rest of Canada.

    Many Canadians shop in so called department stores. These stores carry many items. From food to clothing and garden tools, etc. There are also big shopping centers in and around Ottawa. Those are the best places in the winter time since you can access all shops and stores under one roof.
    There are also malls in Ottawa. There is a difference between a mall and a shopping center. In a mall you'd have to come out of one store, get in your car and drive or perhaps walk up to the next shop outside. The biggest shopping center in Ottawa is Place D'orleans. The busiest is the Rideau center in downtown.

    You can also find regular stores on the streets. Mainly in downtown, like on Elgin Street or Bank street. In these stores you can purchase gifts, food, instruments, clothing goods and electronics. You can also visit China Town on Somerset St to buy authentic Chinese food, fruits, vegetables and other items.

    You can spend all your money in Ottawa. Especially in a shopping center.

    Rideau Centre: Rideau Centre
  • Tip Rating:
  • It is the city's main shopping centre, and is in the heart of the tourist area, right off the Byward Market, next to the northern tip of the Rideau Canal.

    It has plenty of shops for all sorts of purchases, especially if you're looking for clothes, in a variety of price ranges.

    Rideau Centre: Shopping in the heart of downtown Ottawa
  • Tip Rating:
  • Located downtown at the junction of Rideau Street, Sussex Drive and Colonel By Drive. Connected to the Ottawa Congress Centre and the Westin Hotel, and to The Bay by overpass. 200 retailers and services carry apparel, footwear, gifts, toys, and souvenirs.

    you name it, it's probably here!

    fair prices at some places, really expensive at others

    The Rideau Centre is perhaps the biggest shopping mall in Ottawa which is located near to the major attractions and various hotels. There are many shops and restaurants located here, including a big food court for those going on a budget.

    Rideau Centre: Lots of Choice
    The Rideau Centre was quite a big shopping mall which sold everything such as clothes, jewellery, showes, beauty products, biooks Gifts and food and drink.

    All goods were cheaper to buy than in England

    Rideau Centre: In the middle of everything
    This shopping complex is just a short walk down the hill from Parliment and the Chateau. It is also where many of the buses come into and depart from.

    Whatever you need

    Rideau Centre: After sightseeing, this is the place to go
    After tiring yourself out by sightseeing, this is the place to go. Retailtherapy. Clothes, souvenirs, shoes, camera, and wide range of restaurants. We bought shoes and had a nice meal in the shopping mall. Especially when it's cold/raining outside, this is the shelter for you.

    I don't know...I bought shoes, my husband bought cheap films in Japan Camera. Food there was cheap and good.

    As much as you want, as little as you want.
