About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A few years ago, an elderly gentleman entered the RBC Royal Bank branch every morning around lunchtime. One day, he casually placed a small wooden box on the counter without saying a word. The teller, curious but cautious, asked if it belonged to anyone else. To her surprise, no one claimed it. The teller decided to open it later that afternoon. Inside was a single piece of paper with a note: 'Just wanted to make sure you had this.' Below were instructions for making a delicious sandwich. Since then, whenever someone asks about the mysterious box, everyone in the bank just smiles and mentions the free sandwiches they occasionally receive from ‘a kind neighbor.’

2. A delivery driver pulled up to the RBC Royal Bank one morning and announced loudly, ‘I’ve got a package for someone named “Cash”!’ The security guard raised an eyebrow but shrugged it off. Moments later, another voice called out from inside: 'Hey, Cash! Sign here!' Everyone in the neighborhood started laughing as they watched the delivery guy patiently waiting outside while Cash signed for his mysterious package.

3. A young woman walked into the RBC Royal Bank early one morning, her eyes fixed on something in her hand. She approached the counter with a determined look, but when the teller asked what she needed, she simply said, 'I’d like to deposit this,' holding out a small, sparkling stone. The teller peered closely at the stone and declared it was just a clear quartz crystal. ‘It’s worthless,’ she said. The young woman nodded calmly and replied, ‘Thank you for your time.’ Then she left, leaving behind a smile on the teller’s face—and a small note stuck to the counter that read, “Next time bring diamonds.”

4. One autumn day, a small boy followed his бабушка into the RBC Royal Bank. As she approached the counter, he tugged on her sleeve and whispered, pointing towards the ceiling: ‘Granny, why does that bird keep flying around?’ The old lady smiled down at him and gently explained, 'That's not a bird, dear. It's just an advertisement for our bank.' The little boy nodded thoughtfully before turning back to the counter with renewed curiosity. **Final sentence:** That evening, while recounting his adventure to his мама, he proudly declared, 'I saw a bird in the bank!' causing everyone at the dinner table to laugh together.
