The long-vacant former McGreens space on Douglas will open soon as the "Fit Fix Cafe".

Walked by here a while ago. It looks cozy. How long before it closes?

Where is this? I don't recognize the space (or recall McGreens).

Opposite Hope Key.  So between Yates and Johnson.

A little more context:

what sort of place is it? judging by the name it sounds like they would do protein shakes & stuff.

I don't wish any misfortune on any one but I am penciling in November of 2016 .. 

 

Looks like a combination of a stuffy cigar bar and a uppity coffee joint. I have no idea if it is  a cell phone repair cafe or a fitness cafe ... :/

Silly, that would be the Fix Fit Cafe.

This just in, it will be a prepared meal and on-the-go meal place catering to the fitness crowd.

 

If done right, this could prove quite popular. Anyone who goes to the gym knows how difficult it can be to prepare a proper meal after a workout if you're crunched for time.

I don't even know what that means.  I like Burger King, will it be similar?

By the sounds of it, food and supplements prepared for people who are coming home from the gym. A lot of people who work out stick to very strict diets and this place could be trying to tap into a market that has thus far gone unnoticed by Victoria's delis/cafes. There are three gyms within spitting distance of this location.

True, but seems kind of nichey.

 

If it has good stuff, it'll be OK, despite the name.  When does it open Mike?

[Mike K.]

All I heard was "soon." It looks like they're close.

[Mr_E_Squirrel]

Five or Six gyms personal training studios off the top of my head .. probably more. Thanks for checking into what it is ..

Studio Four 

BDHQ on Johnson

West Core Training Center on Johnson

Wow, that's quite the list.

[VicHockeyFan]

OK, it's open now.  Indeed, you can buy protein powder by the huge bucket, and normal food you'd find in a take-out place.
