Fairview Pointe-Claire shopping mall houses some generally high end fashion stores and boutiques. Due to its location and relative busy neighborhood, it is generally considered to be the center of the West Island. Other places to shop include Dorval Shopping Centre "Les Jardins de Dorval", "Les Galeries des Sources" in Dollard-des-Ormeaux, and the outlet retail shops near Colisée Kirkland. The shopping in the West Island is utilitarian and functional, but not particularly interesting; all the necessities are accessible, but the experience is somewhat generic.
