The Vancouver restaurant and cafe closures show no sign of stopping, and we have just received word that another spot is planning on closing its doors: Espressotec.

Located at 1015 Clark Dr., Vancouver, Espressotec is a coffee equipment store where you can find a wide variety of equipment, beans, milk alternatives, and more. It’s also home to Roaster Central, a coffee-tasting bar.

“The rising costs of operations have made it difficult to sustain our brick-and-mortar space,” shared the store on its Instagram.
