History
The Cave opened in November 1993 as Britannia's school store.
The name of the store was determined by a student contest. It was felt that The Cave was an appropriate name for the store because firstly, it is the place of hibernation for Bruins and secondly, the name is synonymous with a 70's Vancouver nightspot, which was the place to go to meet up with friends and have a good time.

meet the needs of our customers with an excellent level of customer service along
