r/Welland

Hey! incoming student who isn't a local, and would love your honest thoughts on safety, general vibe, and if it's okay to walk around here at night:

699 Niagara St

109 Niagara St

21 Seventh St

585 / 595 King St

Any advice on which to pick or completely avoid would be amazing. Thank you

Anyone know what will replace it?

Posting this as a heads-up to anyone in the area looking for local phone repair options.
I paid $99 cash at CA Mart for an iPhone 11 screen replacement, which came with a promised 3-month warranty. Shortly after the repair, the adhesive they used completely failed, causing the display assembly to lift entirely away from the frame.
When I reached out with photo proof showing the failed adhesive and lifted frame, they refused to honor the warranty, ignored my attempts to get it resolved reasonably, and demanded another $85 to fix their own faulty installation. They also failed to provide an itemized receipt or invoice at the time of repair.
I’ve already filed a formal complaint with Consumer Protection Ontario, but wanted to post here so others can avoid losing money or dealing with unhonored warranties.

Looking for a dog groomer for my two dogs. My long time groomer has become quite expensive, $200 per dog. These are farm dogs, so all they need is to be clipped down, nothing fancy. Would appreciate any suggestions as not a lot of groomers are taking on new clients.

Looking for 1 girl 3 guys for rec league indoor winter volleyball on Monday nights. My team dissolved after last year, we are very rec so probably not a good fit if you want to be very competitive.

I just had my second child and have been going through all the emotions that come with it.

I was honestly shocked to see that there doesn't seem to be a Dads of Niagara Facebook group! I was thinking about a place where dads could ask questions, share their wins and losses, talk about the challenges of fatherhood, and potentially set up meetups to make new friends who are going through the same things.

I'm debating creating a group to help fill that void, but I wanted to see if there would actually be any interest from dads in the area.

Would you guys be interested in something like this?

Is there a game store around that has D&D stuff? I've decided that I want physical dice and Player's Handbook rather than digital versions, and I'd prefer to buy locally instead of online. I'm specifically looking for the 2014 PHB, which is a little trickier to track down, but I'm hoping there's a copy floating around. I'm willing to drive a bit, but ideally not too far. Any suggestions of where to look would be really appreciated!

I’m obsessed with Forged in Fire (always have been) but it’s back on netflix and I would love to try my hand at making a knife. Any local teachers in the area offer lessons?

I can’t find the thread but whoever recommended counselling/therapy at the health retreat in Welland thank you! I’m going for a massage next week too and everyone tells me it’s just as good. What an awesome addition to Welland finally 🙏🙏🙏🙏

This is technically for pelham. But pelhams reddit page is restricted.

This is just a heads up.

There are 2 unmarked police vehicles. One on Effingham and one on Metler.

Be safe out there! To the people that are very mad at me, I wanna make you aware that I personally didn't get a ticket. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Edit again IM NOT SAYING SPEED. DO NOT SPEED REGARDLESS. Holy.

Hey everyone! Where is everyone going to watch the meteor shower??

Looking for traditional martial arts in the area. Don’t care if it’s 3 people in a park. Anyone know of anything?

people who let their dogs bark for hours on end, what’s your justification?? would it be rude to post a polite note on the door to inform the owner that this is happening for an extended period of time? not looking to make any enemies but wow i’m peeved off

Anybody have work done by them? Are they good? Bad? Please let me know. Thanks

We’re relocating for my husband’s work in welland

1. Is it family friendly? How’s community/town with young toddlers when it comes to family activities especially for ages 3-4 yr olds and a 7 yr old.
   How’s the crime rates/drug surroundings is it only in the main downtown ?
   Would you recommend it to a young family to buy their first home and build a good community for us.

Which parts of welland should we focus on ? Which areas are the worst to good.
Access to grocery stores is it easily accessible?

We’re going to be visiting the town soon in person to see for ourselves! Thanks in advance.

Hi! I am in Welland/Niagara region today. Where is the best place to buy fresh local peaches?

I've been training Muay Thai at Niagara Top Team since November 2025 and was looking to improve on my boxing. I work in Port Colborne right off Highway 140 and was looking to go to Nappers Boxing Club right after work Monday to Friday.

Was just curious to see if anyone here trains there and able to provide any details about their gym?
