Nelly’s has been part of the Kitsilano neighbourhood for over 30 years – quite the feat for a Vancouver restaurant.

The business didn’t say what has caused the closure, but only said that, “Unfortunately things happen beyond our control and people bigger than us can crush dreams, sadly.”
The spot obviously left an impression on the Kitsilano neighbourhood, as comments on the post included one person sharing, “My wife and I have been coming here for 10 years. Easily the best brunch spot in kits.”
Another person shared that, “Every time I turn around something else that made Vancouver special is lost.”
Nelly’s was known for its all-day breakfast, inventive eggs benny specials, and rotating waffle options.
Pay the grill at 2061 West 4th a visit before it permanently closes at the end of July.
