This is a modern house ware and furniture store that offers upscale items for your condo, house, or cottage.
Absolutely fantastic for drinking glasses, including wine and liquor glasses. The glasses are solid, stylish, and nearly unbreakable with everyday usage.
They offer gorgeous ready to go framed pictures and wall art, and a nice selection of throw pillows for the couch. As well as great kitchen stuff, especially pots and pans for reasonable prices.
We also liked a many of the furniture pieces, couches, the area rugs, and patio furniture. -

I find the quality is inconsistent with this brand. I don't like that this store is located in a mall because you don't get the same customer service as you would at other furniture stores.

I was quite disappointed with Crate and Barrel (Canada). Not so much the store, but the registry.
I came here to create a wedding registry and this is what I found out:
1. Both in and out of town guests have to call in and ask what's on your registry. They cannot view it online so they need to sit on the phone and have someone list ALL the things you have on there.
2. Out of town guests can't order anything online and have it shipped to you. They have to call in and place the order.
3. Any guests that want to have gifts shipped to you must do so at their own expense.
4. The selection of kitchenware is pretty sad. Only 2 food processors and 1 stand mixer to choose from. Really?
Anyone thinking about creating a wedding registry here, beware.
Despite the pretty sorry registry service, the items they carry in the store are nice. We walked out with an egg timer. -

This is one of the best U.S. stores to arrive in Canada in a while!
They have the best one-stop shopping for kitchen and dining wares, especially if you love to cook or shopping for someone who does. In addition to their own brand they carry quality brands like Bodum, KitchenAid, Breville, Wusthoff, OXO, Marimekko, Cuisinart, Tumi, Bialetti, etc...
Their furniture is very good quality, well made, tastefully designed and resonably priced. Many of their uphostered furniture could be custom made from a wide variety of fabrics. They also have a very nice line of quality outdoor furniture.
I have found their furniture department has less selection than the U.S. stores, but still decent.
This is the place I send my friends and colleagues who needs furniture but don't have any sense of design. You can't go wrong here.
Their staff is always friendly and willing to help.
Unfortunately C&B is inconveniently located in the hallows of the dreaded Yorkville Mall, which could make your shopping experience less than desireable (and efficient).Listed in: Home furnishings (Best &…

When Crate and Barrel arrived at my favourite mall Yorkdale, I was thrilled it opened up in Canada. My excitement encompassed three things I think about as I enter this store each and every time...
LOW PRICES! SELECTION! STYLE!
This store is a true ruler when it comes to home decor. It has furniture for your working kitchen and cozy bedroom, outdoor pieces for your backyard, and sections packed with items such as dishes and accessories like colourful throw pillows.
What I love about this store as well is that it is trendy but reasonable. In this sense, it keeps you from getting sad as you walk around other furniture stores where you can't seem to afford a thing.
Also, the merchandise quantity is HUGE! When my mom and I went to pick out new kitchen glasses, there were at least 12 different styles to pick from.
As well, this is key for bridal registry. My friends are getting married and they were able to sign up for such cute gifts from here. One of them - a neat stainless steel style spice rack - is something I snagged for them!Listed in: For Furniture Fanatics and…

Well it appears Crate and Barrel has finally come to Canada.
The employees were quite helpful. A little too helpful for my tastes but pleasant and not intrusive while browsing. It's the kind of "too helpful" in the sense that I don't really need to know if the stuffing in the couch I'm about to buy is 100% whole wheat environmentally friendly soy based product grown from virgin plants that always face south... blah blah blah.. I purchased their entry-level micro-suade Sofa and after a few weeks with it I'm quite happy for the price.
The selection is nice and things generally feel of better quality than other options Ikea, Bombay, etc. It's a little more pricy here but the merchandise is better. I'd estimate it's on par with Pottery Barn.
I like it because you're less likely to run into the furniture you've just purchased at all of your friends places, it's a little more exclusive and not so massively consumed.
One concern would be that I'd be a little reluctant to get into their really high-end couches and dining sets because you start getting into Ethan Allen prices. -

i heart THE BARREL, as we call it in our house.
good prices for the quality, and the selection changes often enough I can be sure to see a neat gadget for the kitchen that I didn't see last time. sadly, it looked very not-busy on my last visit. too bad it's in Yorkdale Mall, though.
