Living in Mississauga City Centre

So you want to live in the heart of it all: Mississauga City Centre.

Our downtown is quaint and much smaller than our big brother in Toronto, but it still has a lot of fun things going on, especially with the addition of Celebration Square.
Living in Mississauga City Centre you are steps away from everything including Square One Shopping Mall, Living Arts Centre and of course some really amazing restaurants and shops.

Things I Love About Mississauga City Centre

No.1

Square One Shopping Mall:

People from all over the GTA come to visit Square One, and it has been undergoing some extensive renovations and additions recently. From bargain shopping to designer suits you can accommodate all of your shopping needs here.

No.2

The Attractions:

Aside from Square One, you have Mississauga’s Celebration Square, the movie theatre, Playdium, restaurants and clubs all within a 1km radius.

No.3

The Prices:

Although it’s mostly condo buildings, you can find some great houses for very affordable prices in the area.

No.4

The Ease of Commuting:

The bus terminal can get you anywhere you need to go, and you’re right off highway 403.

No.5

The People:

Mississauga is just as much a melting pot as Toronto. and you can see that first hand in the City Centre with people from all over the world calling it home.

Ruth’s Chris:

Oh you fancy, huh? Well then you’ll want to check out this top-notch steakhouse. You will not be disappointed with any of the selections on this menu, which serves the only best USDA Prime beef.

The Host:

I love this place so much that they catered my wedding! This is the best Indian food in the city, and you cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. It has all your classics like Tandoori and Butter Chicken but I would recommend getting a little adventurous and trying the Lamb Roganjosh or the Nalli Nihari.

Earl’s:

Located right in Square One Shopping Mall, Earl’s serves up many of the traditional favourite menu items and offers some of the best burgers I have tasted. You really can’t go wrong with anything here, and the atmosphere is amazing.

Sushi Tei:

Not directly in the City Centre but it is getting love from me either way. They have free apps and they definitely do some great sushi and you will notice the difference in quality compared to other sushi restaurants.

Square One Food Court:

I know it’s a weird selection, but it is actually a great place to grab a meal and you have an abundance of choices here. I love getting Shawarma at Villa Madilla or a simple Burrito at Chipotle…you can’t go wrong with the prices either!

Driving:

The best option for driving into Toronto from the City Centre area is to head south on Hurontario and take the QEW/Gardiner. The drive takes approximately 45 minutes during rush hour.

GO Train:

The Cooksville GO station is just down the road and can get you into downtown Toronto in approximately 30 minutes during rush hour. Check out the GO Schedule below:
