Located on Markham Street, The Kitchen joins Mirvish Village's growing mix of independent food and beverage brands, shops, residences and community spaces. Spanning over 9,000 square feet across two levels, The Kitchen will seat over 460 guests with almost 100 additional seats outside seasonally, along with a mezzanine level, bringing 12 of local favourites and food brands under one roof. Designed for guests to stay a while, The Kitchen is set to become the cultural, colourful, delicious heart of Mirvish Village. The Kitchen is built for the group chat, the family in town, and the colleagues who can never decide where to eat. Guests order at one kiosk, mixing and matching dishes from as many kitchens as they like in a single order. The whole order is then delivered on a conveyor belt to a pick-up cubby, so everyone's food arrives at the same time. "The Kitchen was designed around a moment every group knows well: no one can agree on where to eat," said Grant Nelson, Director of Food & Beverage Operations. "Here, everyone orders from a different kitchen and sits down at the same table. We want The Kitchen to feel like the neighbourhood's kitchen table, a place where you can drop in for a bite, share different items and try new things, and end up staying a lot longer than you planned." The Kitchen is also a destination for experiences, not just food and drink. With a projector pull-down screen and a premium sound system, it's set up for viewing parties and game days, live music, activations and community events bringing the Mirvish Village neighbourhood and the wider Toronto community together. Bleacher-style seating leads up to the mezzanine, and when the weather's nice, a garage door opens to the outdoors, right across from Honest Ed's Park, making The Kitchen Toronto's next go-to gathering spot. The Kitchen is powered by Kitchen Hub, the Toronto-founded operator of multi-restaurant food halls across the GTA, offering dine-in, takeout and delivery from a curated lineup of local brands. "Kitchen Hub was built to help great restaurants reach new neighbourhoods, and The Kitchen is an exciting new chapter for us" said Adam Armeland, CEO & Co-Founder at Kitchen Hub. "Bloor and Bathurst has always been a place where Toronto comes together, from Honest Ed's to the theatre crowd, students and the neighbours who've been here for decades. The Kitchen is built with them in mind, and we're excited to bring some of the city's most exciting chefs and dishes to a neighbourhood that already knows how to gather." So, who's cooking? That's staying under wraps for now. The full lineup will be revealed in early 2027, ahead of The Kitchen's grand opening.

Canada's 'first digital food hall' to open a Calgary location. While Calgarians have plenty of food halls at their disposal, offering dozens of different cuisines under one roof, the city is about to get a brand new concept. Kitchen Hub, which touts itself as "Canada's first digital food hall," is set to open a new location in Calgary's Beltine neighbourhood soon, allowing diners to order from multiple restaurants all on one order. Founded by three dads. Kitchen Hub aims to create a solution to the age-old problem of trying to satisfy everyone's preferences come meal time by allowing guests to mix and match dishes from multiple restaurants. To ensure the experience is authentic, all food is prepared by each restaurant's own chefs using their own ingredients and recipes. Customers will be able to order through the Kitchen Hub website, in person or via third-party delivery apps and either get their meals delivered straight to their door or pick up in person. Two restaurants have already been confirmed to launch in the Kitchen Hub space, Bro'kin Yolk Express and Nan's Noodle House, when it opens, with additional restaurant partners set to join in the new year. The concept has three locations in the Greater Toronto Area, and the new Calgary location will be the concept's first foray into the rest of Canada. While Kitchen Hub has not been able to confirm an official opening date, we've been told it's coming soon, so watch this space. Address: 1508 8th St. SW, Unit 105, Calgary
