UPDATE: The mall is still in need of a licensed restaurant, and wine store. The new, smaller food court is noisy, crowded, doesn't have pizza, and still has duplication in Manchu Wok and the terrible Shanghai 360. It's a disaster, and should have stayed on the second floor, but the stores on the third level complained traffic was down, so management spent millions to move. Other than Walmart, we don't shop at third floor stores, even though the food court moved. It's the stores, not the floor! The food court is not hearing-impaired friendly with the open ceiling, and for modern construction, it's a real shame. There's lots of empty store space in the mall, and certainly room for a licensed restaurant now. The Walmart here isn't really a "supercenter" and has a quarter of the selection of other Walmart stores, so when we go to another location to shop, we do other shopping elsewhere too! It should also have a McDonald's in it, like other Walmart stores do. The excuse is because A&W is there, but there's two Chinese food restaurants, so why not competition for burgers when McDonald's is clearly better? There's now a whopping five opticians in the mall - which seems like desperation to rent stores. Totally unnecessary to have opticians on all three floors of an accessible mall. There are already too many opticians in the mall, and this is just more competition for customers to use if they are unable to travel a few miles for much better prices elsewhere like our family does to save HUNDREDS of dollars for prescription eyewear.

For a mall of this size, it is quite disappointing. Then there's HBC, which looks like a dump from outside the first floor, with its boarded up broken doors. Doors that get stuck open in winter, spring, and summer, heating and cooling a small portion of the parking lot. Yes, it can be felt from outside. Yet due to store struggles and theft, HBC opens late every day and does not maintain mall hours. It used to be that mall management enforced businesses keeping mall hours. Not anymore. Especially a department store, one of the "anchor" stores that doesn't act like an anchor.

Bayshore is where you go when you have to, or if you're close by, but it's just not a destination mall. It used to be, but times have changed and it just isn't anymore. When we've come here for specific things in the past few months, we have left empty-handed.

The mall is also planning to go cashless, which will further render it as a useless destination to shop at. A few stores already refuse legal Canadian currency in cash, which should not be acceptable anywhere, ever. Unless you're coming here for something specific, you're better off shopping elsewhere in the city.
