    Morning bun (petso, cheese, tomato)

    Space is well laid out, display is nicely set up. Self-serve bussing, water station with glasses. No wifi.

    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!

    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!

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

    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

    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!

    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!
    Mina P.

    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!

    I ordered the 6 inch mango cake for my sister's birthday and it was absolutely worth it! The cake…read morewas light, fresh, and full of delicious mango flavour without being overly sweet. It was a huge hit with everyone! The 6 inch cake was $69 and I added a customized birthday message on chocolate for an extra $3 which was a nice personal touch. They also offer a gluten free option for an additional $10 which is great for accommodating different dietary needs. One thing to keep in mind is that you'll want to order online well in advance because their cakes sell out quickly. I can definitely see why. They're fantastic! I'll be ordering from Gary's Patisserie again for future celebrations.

    Have seen Gary's fresh mango cakes all over IG and with my Dad's recent birthday I convinced my…read moresister to order one, instead of our usual mango cake from Saint Germaine bakery. Gary's only allows to order the fresh mango cakes up to one week ahead to ensure they have enough ripe mangos, which I admire their dedication. We ordered the 6 inch cake for 9 people (7 adults and 2 kids) and everyone got a thin to average slice. The cake is definitely prettier than the other fresh mango cakes on the market, has a lot more mangos that are perfectly ripe and sweet, there is less wipped cream, and the sponge cake is softer. The family agreed that Gary's has the best fresh mango cake but at $69 for a 6 inch cake, versus $43 for a 6 inch mango cake from Saint Germaine, a cake from Gary's is definitely a treat and for special occasions. Is Gary's worth the premium price? I think so but not everyone in my family agreed. One thing to note: Gary's do offer cake in a jar that's $8.50 each. When we went, they had a BOGO deal with the mango cake jars. My nephew asked my sister to buy the BOGO deal knowing that the 6 inch cake was not going to be enough, as the kids like having a second slice of cake.

    Excellent bakery and cafe with delectable baked goods especially…read more We tried the following for Croissant Crawl and they were all excellent. - mushroom tart - really great flavour, very crispy and crunch on the outside - strawberry croissant tart - this is so beautiful you don't even want to break into it to eat it, but the fruit is wonderful and fresh, the pastry very crispy and crunchy, amazing texture and as a package it is awesome - pistachio and mango cruffins - these are good as well. Crunchy and the inside is flavourful. - cheese tart - I think this is my favourite. Really smooth and wonderful cheese, the crust is solid and crunchy but not too much. Just really wonderful. Would definitely come back.

    This place's aesthetic is really cute and the fruit-shaped desserts are probably the biggest draw…read more They are so unique and honestly look almost too pretty to eat. I believe they were one of the first places in Vancouver to really bring these fruit-shaped desserts to the forefront, and then slowly everyone else started following the trend. The mango is definitely my favourite. It's light, fruity and refreshing and the white chocolate shell gives you that little crack when you bite into it. I tried the clementine/orange one as well and I would probably skip that one next time. It's mostly cream with not a ton of cake. The good news is that the mousse is pretty light, so even though there's a lot of it, it doesn't feel like an incredibly heavy dessert. The pastries and desserts are definitely more about the experience and presentation, although there are some really good options beyond the fruit ones too.

Well it seems ownership has changed and the new owner doesn't give two craps about prior customers, honoring discounts, replying back timely or being more friendly? Was playing email tag and finally submitted the 39 flavors and didn't hear back until after another week and then told they won't deliver only in morning when they know our reservation was for 730pm and they're open until 9? I even replied back and nothing. We own and run several business in lower mainland and in United States and this customer service from Unni Pastries is trash. At least you can do is reply back and apologize? For wasting time when I specifically told you it's for family and friends flying into town for a funeral burial. Will never use their business again. I highly suggest Mello. They replied and helped me out last minute. Shame on you! Learn how to run a business and treat customers esp previous customers who were supporting the business and fellow Krn but it's clear the new owner doesn't care about the customer or quality it's all about quantity. Maybe my 39 donuts which I offered to pay extra for time and packaging wasn't large enough but money is money. Especially during this time and economy. You should've at least replied back and even tried asking us to do pickup as the restaurant is down the road. Do better! Go to Mello which isn't too far and they bake fresh daily better pricing and reviews and consistency!
