Great atmosphere, beautiful building, but it seems to be mostly catering to the nearby office workers. That makes sense since there is little else bringing the general public downtown these days, and crime is getting out of hand, especially in the nearby malls.
I've always liked commerce place, but covid hit the center pretty hard. It looks like a ghost town literally. Very few of the businesses are open, as most tenants are allowing their staff to work from home. The Tim Hortons and Starbucks are the only businesses open as far as I know. GoodLife i think is too, but I'm not 100% sure. I don't think any of the lounges are open either. Access to mall I think is closed as well.
We'll see what happens with this building in the future. The neighbor Manulife will be getting a facelift soon.
Commerce place has new seating now. It looks nice! Hopefully people come back soon
Locked washrooms? I understand we have a pandemic going on but you are giving me no reason to come back and a very bad memory about a place I used to like, and perhaps your cleaning workers are going to work extra hard if I don't manage to hold it until I am out of here.

Me and my ex girlfriend who was leaving in 2 hours to go back to the NWT ordered a taxi now I had a cell that was on very low power so which I took my charger out to give it a quick zap but not even 1 min 2 security guards walk up to us asking us to leave the door entrance now I know this whole covid thing is going on but they showed up at the wrong time it got a little sentimental feelers and that were kicking in so it got a little heated which I would like to apologize for my rudeness but yeah they dished it first and that day I wasnt having it 5 stars just because I lost my cool
There is a manager there that is extremely rude. She is the lady with the dark skin with the name Larona. She treats costumers with bad manners and without care. And she talks to the staff working with a commanding attitude. I have seen many people receive bad service with her carless attitude while standing in line and waiting to receive my order. I was not going to post anything, but this repeatedly happens every day, as I am a regular costumer. She needs to learn manners to treat others with respect. I cannot believe that she is a manager who works for a respectable company like McDonald's. You are going to loose many costumers because of her attitude. If this keeps up, I will have to go to Tim Hortons and I am sure many others will do the same. How sad.
Haircuts hortons and McDonald's. What else do you need. Great place to get out of the cold and have a nap. Excellent access to the central lrt and pedway system plus bus stops on two sides of the building. Fine clothing stores as well. Plus a food court on the second floor.
The Rotunda, the common space below the office buildings, is NOT a good place to wait for people to finish work, or to wait for colleagues. Security often checks on people not wearing business clothing. Very little seating. It is better to go to the second floor, where there is a good court that is almost always empty (aside from around lunch time), where security never tries to move people from their seats.
I love to stick around this place! They have one of the best steak houses. Sunterra and loolapalooza chocolates are the best and my favourite places e! Their latest renovation for the food court was also very nice. Love the business decent ambiance in this place, plus a very accessible pathway to the LRT!
I've worked and gone to school in this area and while I think it's very interesting to revisit the place now and see what new shops are around or what small upgrades have been implemented, when I had to visit this place every day for lunch or to walk in the winter, it gets old fast.
Different areas, different floors from a food court! Stores for clothing to Jewelry! Different small stores for your personal taste To even a gym to get in your exercise A very good quality restaurant to meet for drinks to having lunch meeting, to having a candle light dinner with your Loved ones; to that someone special in you're life
I would recommend security screen its customers a little more carefully. Upon walking in to this obviously well renovated location, I was hit with a very potent smell of marijuana. The whole room smelled of it, not just one area.
Commerce Place Security are a bang on when it comes to Security. They are always very helpful & friendly no matter the race. The outfit and armoured vests are very professional looking as well. Jasper Avenue isn’t the same place it was 25 years ago and I can understand why they wear them.
