    Chocolate almond croissant, butter croissant, lemon pistachio scone, brioche breakfast sandwich, pour over, latte
    Leilani Q.

    I really love sitting and hanging out here with a pastry and a coffee. The lighting is great, easy to order and grab your drink. Butter croissant: delicious, light, buttery. Such a good plain croissant with good texture on the inside and a light crispness on the outside. Highly recommend! Chocolate almond croissant: a little too chocolatey and dense for me, but great with coffee Lemon pistachio scone: pretty good texture, not dry in the middle but the ends were a bit dry and good lemon flavor Brioche breakfast sandwich: really fluffy and light bun with some delicious savory filling! Pour over this day was amazing!! Tasted like chocolate cov red strawberries and I'm here for it Latte with oat milk: solid latte, I'd get this again

    Beautiful pastries~

    Seriously tasty pastry place in the Granville area. This chain is quite competitive with Trees in the quality department. I had a chance to try several pastries. They're not too sweet, and are light and fluffy. Delicious. Need to try their coffee at some point.

    Not a bad place to do some afternoon work...even though they don't have wifi. The tables are spread out enough complete with partitions. Atmosphere is fine with lots of space. My butter croissant was great as it was served from the kitchen instead of the showcase. My latte was smooth..probably cab use just a bit more flavour to complete that full latte feel. Service is fine. More smiling and enthusiasm will be appreciated. All is all, a positive experience.

    I'm updating this review as Small Victory has been my fave little joint and regular spot over the last six months. Because it's close to where I live it's been my go-to coffee shop for delicious coffee and treats! The staff has always been extremely friendly and deals with big lineups in an efficient way to keep things moving along. I love the seating they have in this space and the decor is a real treat! My all time favourite thing to get here is a vanilla latté and the breakfast croissant with the tomato jam and egg and arugula! It's to DIE for! When I'm not feeling as hungry, I'll usually grab a butter croissant and boy are they buttery and flakey! I absolutely love them. The layers are so incredibly perfect too. I've tried tons of their treats too and everything has been incredible so far. I love too that you can buy things like Mumgry and their own granola. Top marks for small victory!

    Cakes were good but they always over charge you Be aware!!!

    Rude and careless people in the bakery What you saw in the pictures they were cookies in the wrapped paper and they charged $32 (the cookies were only $4 each how did they come up with that number to charge my credit card??) And the other time they also over charge me $8 Try to get a receipt instead of just tap and go The cake and cookies were good though

    Absolutely outstanding!! Ive been to many cafes and bakeries/ coffee shops around vancouver! But i gotta say that this place is up there in my top 2. I tried several pastries across the board, And each one proved to be a winner. You can tell there is a Real Master baker behind the scenes and they only use prime ingredients...the butter that they use is of the highest quality, as the pastry base used for the croissants and strudels are so flaky and can easily be compared to the ones in europe. No i have not tried each item they have, but have tried quite a few..,and like i mentioned...each one oustanding in its own right. This would explain the long lines that forms as soon as they open, and all throughout the day. Cheers! happy eating!

    I LOVE this place!!! The coffee is amazing and the food is even better!! I've gone to two of the locations in Vancouver, but this one sticks out to me! The place was packed when I came, but the line moved quick! The was a good sign and as soon as we got in, by our luck a table freed up for us! I love this Spanish latte!! It's a shame they don't deliver!! I'd be ordering it daily!! Also, their pastries are melt in your mouth!!!!! I want to come back soon and have more of that delicious coffee with a book in hand!

    three pastries and a cup of coffee

    With celebrating my gf's birthday this past Saturday, it wouldn't have been complete without cake! I straight up asked her what kind of cake she wanted and she said "Anything coconut!" So I literally Googled "Coconut cake Vancouver" and I was pleasantly surprised to see Small Victory pop up on my results. With Small Victory being one of my favourite bakeries, it was a no-brainer to order their Coconut Cake. And to no surprise, it was delicious! Yay, found another spot for cakes! While picking up the cake, I couldn't resist grabbing a latte and all three of their croissant doughnuts: vanilla, pistachio, and coconut pineapple. I discovered these the last time I visited and seriously.. they are the best thing ever. I am super excited that they're opening a third location at Brentwood! So much closer for me.. I will definitely be visiting lots.

    Perfectly placed pastries first thing in the morning.

    I purposefully came here one morning after Googling bakeries and cafes. Upon walking in, I was instantly taken aback: the place was way more spacious than I had thought, or the Yelp pictures had led on. Huge space with tables in the back and high exposed ceilings (in my opinion) gave the place a glamorous Yaletown vibe. The bakers were working out in the open alongside the cashiers, with the humming of early morning coffeehouse efficiency. For someone who has never been to this place, the two counters were slightly confusing at first, but managed to figure out the counter displaying pastries/cakes was also for ordering. Pastries were perfectly placed and actually made me a bit hesitant to order one...akin to my hesitation about stepping on fresh snow lest I ruin the powder. A giant board above the counter listed drinks, concoctions, and prices...except drip coffee which is what I was seeking. The board directed me to look on the sheet which was by the cashier. I ended up making a snap drip coffee decision. My only suggestion would be to ask for a second copy of the drip coffee choices to be put closer to the front door, so we can have more time to read the different brews and decide while we are waiting in line. The coffee mug I brought was filled to the brim with my drip coffee order, thus I'm not sure what the normal size of coffee would be had I not brought it. I will say it was worth it, to enjoy the coffee in that spacious place, and someday I may even be brave enough to try a pastry!

    A trio of desserts!

    A nice dessert place! We had the tiramisu, caramel cheesecake, and pistachio donut/croissant. All of them were super tasty! The desserts are a bit on the smaller side though. The interior is very nice and roomy - open concept to a tee. Note that it is very busy so you might not be able to get a seat right away. Overall, a great place to indulge your sweet tooth!

    It was my first time to visit Small Victory on Granville Street. I tried the one in Yaletown. The one on Granville Street is very spacious and it is bigger than the one in Yaletown. The pastries and cakes as well as placing orders are on the right if you are facing the coffee shop. The coffee pickup and baristas stay on the left. I ordered a latte, almond croissant and lemon tart. The latte tasted great. It was smooth; the coffee and milk balanced well; and the temperature was too hot that wouldn't burn my tongue. The almond croissant was good too. It was crispy outside and sweet inside. However, I still love the almond croissant from Thomas Hass more . The yellow cream in the lemon tart tasted very sour and the pastry outside tasted sweet. Whenever I swallowed once, the sour flavour made me shivering. I was not sure why the pastry portion was really really really hard that I had to use a lot of energy to cut the lemon tart by fork. In general, the coffee here tasted great. They have a wide variety of pastries but it depends on which one you choose. I may like to try their chocolate pastries next time and other coffee beverages. This coffee shop is located on a busy street. It is hard to find street parking. It is good for people who walk or take public transit. I drove, parked far away and walked all the way to the coffee shop. If you are going to park on the street, you may find some parking meters, street parking with two hours free or free parking in residential areas (which are further away from the coffee shop). But watch out on the time limit on sign. You don't want to get a parking ticket just because you want to get a coffee.

    Breakfast croissant with avo (not aesthically pretty)
    Gerard Y.

    Beautiful day, its sunny outside.. might as well enjoy the Sunday weather looking for the best cherry blossoms in Vancouver. My wife has always wanted to try this bakery in Homer St but Granville St was a closer drive with easier to find street parking. Line up was quick and short. The fresh smell of baked goods is always a bonus and stimulates the appetite. We got a breakfast croissant with avo, almond croissant, 2 cookies and a double chocolate cake. The almond croissant was a bit too sweet and oily 3.5/5. Breakfast croissant hit the spot 4/5. The Americano 4/5 and Cortado 4/5. 2 cookies are gifts and lastly double chocolate cake is 5/5 on looks alone, taste will come later. Would I come back? I would... maybe 2nd time is a charm.

    What I ordered: - oat latte…read more- drip coffee - crinkle cookie - butter croissant highlights: I was very pleasantly surprised with their oat latte. It's very light, slightly acrid, and highly recommend because it didn't leave me feeling heavy in my stomach unlike some oat lattes do. I loved the croissant. It was crispy on the outside (but not crunchy), soft on the inside, with a lovely butter flavour. (Pro tip) dip your butter croissant in the last 1/4 of your latte iykyk study/work space: 4.5/5 They have seating space in the back which was bright and clean. The atmosphere is relatively quiet and super pleasant. Truth be told, I completely forgot that I was on such a busy street! If cafe hopping is your thing, follow me and I'll show you all the best spots! @yvrcafescene (instagram/tiktok)

    I viited Lumine coffee to try Nomsmag cherry blossom festival items…read more What I got: Matcha Strawberry Cube Croissant Crisp on the outside, creamy on the inside. Signature flaky pastry with a vibrant center of whipped matcha cream layered over tangy strawberry jam, finished with a fresh strawberry and matcha dusting. Dough was very crispy outside just like they described signature flaky pastry. And whipped matcha cream had strong matcha flavor, very creamy and not overly sweet. So, it paired with strawberry jam so well. Strawberry jam had well-balanced tangy and sweet flavors, I really liked it. I highly recommend this item! Service was very good and friendly
