THE FOOD- It’s locally sourced and as fresh as we can get it; picked from local farms and moved from the field to our kitchen as quickly as possible to be put in the hands of our talented chefs who have created a menu chock full of honest flavour.

THE BEER- Expertly chosen, carefully stored, and perfectly poured, our beer selection is among the finest anywhere, with 120 different brands available we’re sure to have a variety that suits you no matter your tastes.

THE EXPERIENCE- Food & beer is a good start, but MKT has a lot more to offer. Our bar is stocked with every wine, spirit, and cocktail you’d expect from a high-end establishment. Our location gives us beautiful patio seating in the heart of Whyte Avenue’s entertainment district and from time to time, we’ll have live music & unique events to round out the nightlife experience.

At MKT we stick to giving you a genuine experience and our everyday shot at perfect food & beer.

Great food, love that they can accommodate big groups but it was way too loud in there for a Thursday night! I’ve been there a couple times and it’s been great and was not expecting a dj there last night and it was so loud everyone had to yell to talk. Everyone in there were at tables trying to talk so it made no sense to have the dj with such loud music. Probably won’t go back for awhile just cause I don’t like yelling when trying to talk to friends

I reserved several tables for a large group (~30). I experienced really great service throughout the whole evening! The server was super on the ball the whole time.

Draught Beer was warm, dishes not cleared between courses, had to ask for water and other drinks multiple times. Half of our party had upset stomachs after. It was not busy so no reason for poor service.

We booked a Christmas function for work and it went well. When I booked I had phone calls from MKT staff confirming information and they were kind a courteous. They had us all taken care of. No need to preorder and all the food was brought out together. They absolutely take care of groups. The food was really good. Excellent place and I would definitely recommend. We also had a private room booked and it was perfect.

Even though there was a mix-up in the reservation the manager quickly accommodated us. We had a great time watching the hockey game at the bar. The food was great and the bartender was excellent and made some really good menu recommendations.
