Eataly Toronto opens its first location in Canada
After waiting for years Eataly Toronto is finally about to open its doors in Yorkville on Wednesday, November 13, 2019 (tomorrow!). The highly anticipated Italian Market Chain Eataly opens its 40th location which is about 50,000 square feet in Toronto’s Manulife Centre, Yorkville.
The Toronto location will be three floors with a high-end Italian grocery store, bars, restaurants, and cafes. Eataly has four full-service restaurants, but customers can also buy a glass of wine from the bar and walk around the grocery shelves and browse some different styles of pizza and to-go items.
Prior to the launch date, we had the opportunity to get an exclusive sneak peek at what’s to come in this brand new gorgeous complex.
The really unique thing is, they brought over chefs all the way from Italy, to train some of the future local staff so guests can experience 100% authenticity.
Here’s a look at some of the highlights during our visit!
