Vancouver bakery chain relocating to new waterfront café location

It's moving into a space that's been empty for over a year.

Small Victory is opening a new bakery cafe in Vancouver's Yaletown neighbourhood at 1089 Marinaside Cres. The local chain began nearby in the same neighbourhood but closed its original location there in 2024.

Yaletown won't have to go long without a Small Victory bakery in the neighbourhood.

The local chain closed its original shop at 1088 Homer St. last spring. At the time, they announced a new location was in the works for the nearby Marinaside area.

That new location is now "coming soon" according to the Small Victory website, at 1089 Marinaside Cres. Crews are renovating the space.

That space was formerly Seahouse, a Mediterranean restaurant offering pizza, pasta, and live jazz from 2020 to 2023. Some of the Seahouse team ended up at Aylin's Kitchen, which opened in the former Martini's restaurant on West Broadway in Mount Pleasant.

While Small Victory closed its Homer Street location in 2024, in 2023 they opened its biggest location in Mount Pleasant at 388 W 6th Ave near Cambie.

Small Victory also has locations in South Granville and Burnaby's Amazing Brentwood Mall.

Known for its baked goods served alongside a comprehensive coffee program, with breakfast and lunch dishes — and cakes and pies, too — Small Victory was established in Yaletown in 2017.
