Something we don’t love? Vancouver restaurant closures. The restaurant industry in Vancouver can be fickle, and – once again – the city’s dining scene has suffered some casualties.

Here is your update on restaurants in and around Vancouver that shuttered this spring.

A post shared by The Rise Global Fusion Eatery (@theriseeatery)

This global fusion eatery in South Granville was run by a husband and wife duo. It’s shut down, for now, due to expensive rent in the area.

This beloved Vancouver coffee chain announced on Instagram that it would be closing its Main Street location, which was the first of its three locations.

A post shared by Rocky Mountain Flatbread Co. (@rockymountainflatbread)

This restaurant had been at its Kitsilano location at 1876 West 1st Avenue for the last 16 years but decided it’s time to close the doors on this chapter in order to free up time and resources to better focus its efforts on community outreach programs.

A post shared by @beetboxveg

This much-loved spot for plant-based comfort eats closed up shop last month. We’re sad to see Beetbox go, but glad it’s not goodbye. We look forward to seeing where this concept goes next.
