Beaucoup Bakery and Cafe is coming to Britannia Beach.

Britannia Beach is now home to three new businesses with a bakery, boutique gift shop and child care centre set to open in the coming weeks.

As part of the Britannia Beach Townhomes development, nine 100-year-old mining-era buildings were renovated to make way for commercial tenancies in the growing coastal community.

A spokesperson for Adera Development and MacDonald Communities told The Squamish Chief that the new businesses will “enrich the Britannia Beach Townhomes” environment.

“Some of the buildings are up to 110 years old, so they had to be moved onto new foundations and then a complete architectural and structural upgrade was undertaken,” the spokesperson said.

“All buildings, including the restored heritage structures, are thoughtfully upgraded and retrofitted, blending their historical elegance with the demands of modern commercial use.

“The introduction of these new commercial tenants is set to enrich the Britannia Beach Townhomes, creating a lively village atmosphere not only for residents but also enhancing the broader community.”

The spokesperson said the aim of the building transformation was to preserve the historical character of the area and create a space where residents and visitors can gather, shop and socialize.

So who are the new tenants?

Beaucoup Bakery & Cafe is a Vancouver-based patisserie known for its multicultural culinary creations. 

Their menu includes items such as the Peking Duck Croissant, Yuzu Almond Financier and Golden Mochi Croissant.

The Britannia Beach store will be Beaucoup Bakery’s third location in B.C. and according to the development spokesperson, will be “opening soon”.

Copper & Fern is a boutique gift shop featuring locally made products for wellness, home and family.

“The opening of this exciting new community retail village has given me the opportunity to collaborate with local vendors and artists and showcase their incredible work,” reads the Copper & Fern website.

“I look forward to welcoming locals and visitors alike to my boutique and I hope you’ll enjoy the beautiful collection of thoughtfully curated goods.”

Copper & Fern will open in early October.

Wrapping up the new tenants is Eagle Kids child care centre.

“As a family-owned daycare in Canada, we take pride in providing exceptional care for children of all ages,” the Eagle Kids website reads.

The daycare is expected to open in early Oct.

The spokesperson also told The Squamish Chief that a grocery and liquor store will also join the community this year.

“There is a grocery and liquor store in Britannia Beach led by The Boat Shed Group and their partners,” they said.

“They are expected to open in early November. They will also feature freshly baked pizza and a complete deli offering.”

The spokesperson said they are working on a “number of exciting restaurant and lifestyle tenants” which they hope will be announced by late Oct. 

Currently open at the development is Copper Beach Bar + Kitchen.
