Local taiyaki and soft serve shop to open its first Vancouver location
When looking for taiyaki ā the beloved fish-shaped pastries filled with all sorts of goodies ā one place seems to be the first to come to mind for many: Little Pisces.
The shop, brought to us by co-owners Linda Dai and Jacky Tian, has taken Vancouver by storm ever since it opened its first Burnaby location in 2024 and subsequent Richmond outpost. Heck, we’ve been hard-pressed to find a time to visit when there hasn’t been a line of hungry fans at either of these locations. Now, the team has shared that plans to open its first location in Vancouver proper are well underway ā and it’ll be its biggest location yet.
“This store has been in the works for the past few months, and weāre very happy to finally share that we got the keys to Little Pisces numero three last week,” shared Little Pisces on Instagram.

Dai and Tian also shared that this will be Little Pisces’ flagship location, offering a massive space with high ceilings, lots of natural light, and enough amperage to keep up with all the taiyaki making. The new location also features more kitchen space than its other locations, meaning potentially more menu opportunities.
“Our 26 y/o selves would be over the moon ā we truly couldn’t have gotten to today without our amazing team + community, we are eternally grateful for all of you, thank you,” added Little Pisces.

Dai and Tian first met in high school and were friends, but drifted apart after graduating and living in different countries. Then they met up again and threw around the idea of opening a cafe, decided to quit their corporate jobs, and committed to opening Little Pisces.
While taiyaki are the main event at Little Pisces, it also offers soft serve and a selection of coffee, matcha, and more.
Little Pisces Vancouver is expected to open its doors sometime this summer. Aside from the fact that it’s in Vancouver, an exact address has yet to be shared. Be sure to check back here for more information soon.
