(508)

Marben is a bustling farm-to-table restaurant and bar, serving brunch, lunch, and dinner. Enjoy our seasonal and sustainable menus, or grab a few drinks, in the heart of downtown Toronto. With a love for old-school hospitality, we invite everyone to enjoy our space, and to explore the stories behind our restaurant and our food. Honest, fresh ingredients are sourced as locally as possible, and our

carefully curated wine program uses 100% organic wineries. The result is food and drink that boasts immense flavour, freshness, and variety, served in a beautiful and energetic setting. Whether you’re looking for a delicious meal, a few drinks and snacks, or a patio beer, we welcome you to Marben. Oh, and keep this to yourself, but we have a little cocktail bar hidden away downstairs. The Cloak may well be one of Toronto’s best kept drinking secrets...

❤️THANK YOU❤️ To the teams at Marben & The Cloak Bar to our trusted partners & suppliers, and to our loyal guests, none of this would have been possible without you. 🫶🏼

The concept of Marben has always been inspired by owner Simon Benstead’s parents (Mary + Ben = 'Marben') sense of genuine hospitality. For the past 16 years, Marben has exuded the genuine welcome and ambiance of a family home that is filled with laughter, music, and good food. 🏠 😊🎵🍴

Marben is a Canadian home with British roots that we are honoured to have shared with you all. 💕

Here are some of the photos from our Family and Friends event earlier this week. 👋🏼

✨LAST CALL for SUNDAY ROAST at Marben✨

One of the most iconic meals at Marben over the years has been our Sunday Roasts. It's a tasty and wholesome meal that represents warmth and family. ❤️🍴 This Sunday-only tradition consists of grass-fed roast beef, roasted potatoes, gravy, Yorkshire puddings, roast root veg and horseradish.

Join us for one last roast this Sunday, January 29 - our last day of service. 👋🏼

You may have noticed, we have a thing for sweet endings. 😉 With 1️⃣ week left of Marben, we're feeling the love & support from our community. ❤️ There are still a few more days to stop by for dinner and enjoy our delicious Milk Mousse- with macerated organic berries, chickpea crumble, basil, fermented chilli and sumac, it's sure to hit the spot. 🤤

"Saying goodbye to Marben won't be easy for me. Lots of restaurants today are corporate or part of large conglomerates — but Marben was one of those rare independent places that truly lived by its values. We prepared food with the palette and the planet in mind. We stood for equality and believed in our people. We pride ourselves on warm hospitality and exquisite meals. Whatever comes next for myself and the team, we walk away from 488 Wellington Street West armed with jars of memories and the knowledge of what makes a restaurant truly special.” - ❤️Chris Locke

Only three weekends left to indulge in our brunch! 🍳☕️☀️ Book a reso and experience all that an English breakfast should be: mouthwatering sunny eggs, applewood smoked bacon, bubble & squeak hash, fancy baked beans, creminis, tomato, sourdough focaccia, and miso butter. 👌

Just over two weeks left to enjoy Toronto's favourite burger: the John's Burger. 🍔🤤 This scrumptious staple has been on the menu since Marben opened 16 years ago. That should tell you something! 😉

Kick off the new year with some of our next level brunch options. 🤤 Our Korean Fried Chicken is a staff favourite that features regeneratively farmed chicken, japanese cabbage pancake, a sunny egg, orange miso honey hot, bulldog sauce, and slaw. Good morning, Toronto! ☀️🍴

It's time. After a successful 16 year run, we've decided to close. This decision presented itself organically as an evolution of business and lifestyle, but more importantly it just feels like the right time. Serving elevated farm-to-table food to the people of Toronto has been the pleasure of a lifetime, and we'll miss everything about it. Thank you to our loyal guests, our passionate farmers, suppliers and partners, our dedicated staff, and the entire Marben community that made our restaurant feel like a home for all of these years. Our last day of service is JANUARY 29, but before that we're going to celebrate Marben's history with a number of events throughout January (details to come). We hope to see you at 488 Wellington Street West one last time. 👋🏼
