Lee's Donuts is opening a Main Street location in Vancouver, though no date is set

Signs are up at 3712 Main St., just south of Mount Pleasant, promising a new Lee's Donuts. The storefront housed Show Off for nearly 20 years before most recently serving as a Narvan pop-up.
The signs say only "coming soon," and there is no opening date yet. The shop would be the fourth or fifth Lee's location in Vancouver proper, depending on when the Langara location opens.
The chain was launched in 1979 by Betty-Ann and Alan Lee at Granville Island and now has 12 locations counting the doughnut trailer at McArthurGlen Designer Outlet near YVR. The newest opened Sunday, Nov. 8, at Guildford Town Centre in Surrey. Two others are on the way: the Langara location and the first shop outside Metro Vancouver, in Victoria.
The last time the chain drew wide attention was in 2019, when Seth Rogen visited the Granville Island shop for Netflix's Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner.
