Welcome to the autumn edition of Kerrisdale Insider!
As summer fades away, it’s time to embrace our regular routines and the charm of autumn. This season is cherished for its vibrant colours, cooler weather, comforting foods, and the joy of Thanksgiving gatherings and Halloween festivities. Congratulations to Hager Books for celebrating 50 years this past August and their neighbours, Kerrisdale Bootery, for 75 years!
Save the dates! On September 6 and 7, Kerrisdale Days offers a weekend full of excitement. Merchants will host enticing sidewalk sales; live music and pop-up performances will spread joy to passersby, and don’t miss the free horse and carriage rides. No birthday party is complete without cake, so come to Yew Street near W 41st Avenue at 3:00 p.m. on Saturday for a free slice to celebrate Kerrisdale’s 119th birthday. Relax at the pop-up picnic tables on Yew Street, perfect for soaking in the festive atmosphere. As dusk falls on September 6, head to Elm Park to view the movie “Mamma Mia!” under the stars.
This month, we spotlight Moore’s Bakery on our cover. For over 90 years, this independent family-run business has been a staple for

traditional pastries, cookies, baked goods, and bread.
Inside, we feature Crofton Manor Retirement Living, a picturesque six-acre site in the heart of Kerrisdale that offers independent living and long-term residential care.
We’re excited to welcome many new businesses to the village: @26 Viet Café (formerly Cam Dining), Fresh Slice (opening soon), Hululu (formerly BlackBall), Jin Wei Kitchen (formerly Sushi Time), Kerrisdale Marketplace (formerly All In One Mini Mart), Mr. Shi Noodle House (formerly Sip Bowl La Mian), Topclass Education (formerly Provident Security), Westside Vapes (formerly Acacia Nutrition), and West Boulevard Medical (formerly Beauty Angels Spa). Blake & Riley’s location is for lease, and Royal Laura has closed. Evolution Sport Therapy has relocated to West 42nd Avenue, and Gem Chocolates is now under new ownership as Glenn Knowles, president of the KBA, retires.
We thank you for your commitment to shopping locally, which helps make Kerrisdale one of Vancouver’s most desirable neighbourhoods to live in and visit.

MOORE’S BAKERY: A Sweet Success for Over 90 Years
Story by Sarah Gordon Photos by Sandra Steier
Walking through the door of Moore’s Bakery is an experience filled with anticipation. Children’s eyes light up when they spot the iced Minions, unicorns and seasonal cookies. Faithful customers return regularly for freshly baked goods. The heavenly smells and the array of goodies aesthetically presented in glass display cases make Moore’s Bakery irresistible. Decisions do not come quickly with so many tempting choices.
For over 90 years, customers have turned to this independent family-run business for its traditional pastries, cookies, baked goods, and bread.
The shop is known for its irresistible housemade baked goods lovingly made by Sarah Artuso, her brother Rob Kroondyk and their two long-term bakers.
Sarah spoke to Kerrisdale Insider on behalf of her family. She says, “We are lucky to have had them both for over 20 years. They take
an early shift and devote so much time to our business.”
Moore’s Bakery has a long and rich history. The original owners, the Moore family, opened the bakery in the early 1930s and owned it until 1962. Another baker owned it for the next eight years, and in 1973, Sarah and Rob’s parents, Archie and Lorelei Kroondyk, purchased the business. In 1975, the bakery moved from its original location on W 41st Avenue to its present site. The building was the home of the Kerrisdale Theatre in the 1920s. After that, it became a post office and was renovated to house Moore’s Bakery.
“Our parents own the business; they have stepped back a little but come in daily for a few hours. Rob and I work six days a week. My daughter Alex is working part-time as she goes through university. We have three generations at the store.”
The busy bakery employs 12 to 15 staff, mostly university and high school students, who serve customers.
“Over the years, our bread sales have decreased, so we have cut some varieties out and added more cookies. We have also added more dietary-sensitive baked goods, including gluten-free, dairy-free, and egg-free.”
“The bakery business has changed a lot over the past decades. In the 1980s, our bread was in much higher demand, but as grocery stores began to sell more bread, we focused more on our traditional cookies and pastries, which are more of a rarity. We have adjusted our business with the changing times while sticking to our traditional roots.”
Baker's hours are early and long. Rob starts as early as 3:00 a.m. to begin the bread dough, as bread takes four hours from start to finish.
Many of Moore’s baked goods are made to order, leading to long days, especially if it is a weekend with a holiday like Valentine’s Day or Thanksgiving or a month of long days in December.
Customers buy oatmeal cookies by the dozens for tea parties, to give as host gifts, or to send to customers who live out of town.
“Our top-selling oatmeal cookies are what we are best known for. They are simple and plain oatmeal shortbread.”
Moore’s customers’ loyalty knows no bounds. Sarah mentions, “We have a customer who has been getting birthday cakes from us for 50 years. His mom bought a mocha cake for his first birthday; he has continued the tradition of getting one yearly. He and his family still buy our cakes for every occasion and celebration, from birthdays to the Super Bowl to celebrating the last day of school or graduation. They have kept the cake boards from each cake, marking it with the date and occasion.”
Sales of the much-loved iced cookies have increased over the years. Moore’s takes custom orders for showers, birthdays, and weddings.
“Adults enjoy the more traditional cookies like bird’s nest and oatmeal. Our savouries are a favourite for a quick lunch or dinner.”
In addition to the bakery, Moore’s has a small dining area where they sell fresh sandwiches made to order and two choices of soup daily.
Customer service is of the utmost importance. The staff know many of their customers by name, especially those who come in weekly or multiple times a week. They are also familiar with their orders.
“Repeat customers are key for us staying in business. We love hearing that customers enjoy our service and leave with a positive experience. It is gratifying to hear that people come back and support our business because someone they know worked here or their grandparents brought them into the store when they were younger. Past staff bring their children in to show where they first worked. Families of the original and second owners come in and love to see that the business is still operating and selling the same traditional baked goods.”
Kerrisdale is a special community that means a lot to this family. One way they give back is by donating surplus baked goods to
Vancouver Food Runners.
“We make weekly donations of surplus baked goods. Every Friday, without fail, a food runner arrives to pick up two to three trays of bread and a tray of muffins. Vancouver Food Runners is an amazing organization that makes getting food to those in need from our business so easy!”
Moore’s Bakery makes two gigantic sheet cakes for the Kerrisdale Business Association’s celebration of the Village’s birthday every September.
The greatest joy from our work still comes from having customers call or email with messages of gratitude. It is heartwarming to know people enjoy the products we work so hard to keep consistent and delicious. We appreciate all the support and loyalty from our community, and we could not have stayed in business this long without that. Thank you!”

CROFTON MANOR: Retirement Living Like No Other
Story by Sarah Gordon Photos submitted
One of the first things people notice about Crofton Manor is the impressive six-acre site in the heart of Kerrisdale. They are equally won over by the bright, spacious apartments that offer a continuum of care, from independent living to long-term residential care suites.
The retirement complex is part of Venvi Living, which operates 44 senior residences in five provinces across Canada. Venvi believes in a future where seniors can embrace retirement with energy and passion in a vibrant community.
Owain Jones has been Crofton Manor’s executive director since August 2022. He attests that not many senior residences have the luxury of space like this.
“Many residents are attracted to the gardens
and the spacious, welldesigned floor plan.”
“There is an amazing representation of people living at Crofton. Many residents know each other from the community, as a good number previously resided in Kerrisdale.”
Making oneself at home is encouraged, and residents are invited to personalize their space. Some have installed hardwood flooring and repainted to suit their taste.
Accommodations range from spacious studios to one-and two-bedroom suites in a variety of styles and sizes. Suites feature balconies or patios, roomy closets, and private in-suite bathrooms with walk-in showers. Some suites have kitchenettes containing a microwave oven and cooktop, and a few have ovens.
Small pets are welcome to join their owners in the independent living quarters.
The long-term care side offers health care, medication administration, bathing and dressing, and companion services around the clock.
This well-established residence is close to Kerrisdale Village’s shopping district. Residents can easily access the local shops, restaurants, and services by transit or by booking Crofton’s electric Mercedes town car, which is like a built-in private taxi service.
Many residents are committed to helping the environment and are eager to have an electric car available. They are also actively doing their part by recycling and composting.
Plenty of avid gardeners reside at Crofton. Owain says, “There is an active landscaping and gardening committee. They have some passionate debates about pruning and trimming.”
Venvi Living designs menus with active input from Crofton’s residents. Their chefs use seasonal and local inspiration to create a symphony of flavours. In addition to the fullservice dining room, which serves breakfast,
lunch and dinner, there is an all-day self-serve bistro featuring a coffee machine, fruits and pastries. Residents enjoyed participating in a wine tasting to help select B.C. wines to add to the menu.
A private dining room can be booked for family events or more intimate meals. Owain says, “This room was recently used to celebrate a 100th birthday. It can also be catered or used for meetings.”
A card room for playing cards, bridge, and Scrabble, a media room decorated with nostalgic movie posters, and a spacious, bright lounge adorned with beautiful artwork create the feeling of an elegant resort.
A monthly calendar is full of activities for both independent and assisted living residents.
There is something for everyone, including exercise classes, bocce, bingo, French classes, tech classes, bridge, movies, concerts, cocktail socials, and guest speakers.
Excursions are planned year-round. In August, outings included visits to the International Buddhist Society, a rose garden tour in Stanley
Park, lunch and a walk in Deep Cove, and a bus trip to Krause Berry Farm.
Special events are always much anticipated. They had the good fortune to have worldrenowned pianist Paul Lewis visit and perform. An Elvis impersonator is always a crowd-pleaser, as is the arrival of an ice cream truck. A mariachi band was brought in for Canada Day celebrations, and a well-attended barbecue for family members followed.
Many staff members are responsible for making Crofton Manor such a fine-run facility. The 200 staff members include managers, registered nurses, health care aids, janitors, housekeepers, concierges, kitchen staff, servers, and maintenance staff; everyone contributes to the residence’s excellent reputation.
Owain knows most of the residents; he
provides updates at a town hall meeting once a month.
He says, “I am on the floor quite a bit during the day. I get my 10,000 daily steps!”
There is a strong sense of community in this established and reputable retirement residence. Residents are proud to show it off to friends and visitors. It is a place people are proud to call home.
“Happy residents and families fill my cup,” says Owain.
