Spanish Style Market, Mercat Del Carmen Heads to Queen West

The owners of the lively tapas bar Carmen welcome its newest family member, the Mercat del Carmen to Torontonians.  The Spanish style market is bringing the tastes of España to the heart of Queen Street West.

A one-stop-shop for fresh produce, sourced locally from markets and 100km foods along with time saving ready-to-heat meats, which are prepared sous-vide. The Mercat also reaches the sweet tooths out there with a dessert counter featuring classic cookies and shortbread to TORTA DE LA ABUELA (Ricotta cake topped with pine nuts) and TOCINO DE CIELO (Creme caramel). Also enjoy authentic hot & fresh CHURROS, tangy GOAT CHEESECAKES, and creamy biscuits ideal for lattes, tea or ice cream.

Is your mouth watering yet?

The market will also feature a glass-enclosed bar filled with hot and cold delicacies where you can sit down and relax with any of their lattes, long espressos, or boutique coffees. We recommend Mercat’s BON BON – a Spanish specialty that features layers of espresso over lush DULCE DE LECHE!

As if that isn’t enough to plan your next grocery list, Mercat del Carmen also offers Specialty pantry items including Spanish vinegars, conservas (Spanish canned goods and in-house preserves), as well as house-made root chips & tomato sauce, all available for purchase.
