THE MERCHANT KITCHEN

WE HAVE SOME VERY EXCITING NEWS TO SHARE WITH YOU!

The Merchant Kitchen will be seeing some changes in the near future, and for that, we’ll be temporarily closing our doors ON Thursday, July 31 to begin something big.

The Merchant Kitchen was born from a love of travel and adventure—nearly two decades of dreaming, planning, and tasting our way through twenty-one cities across fourteen countries. Every dish, every idea, every moment brought us here.

Since opening our doors a decade ago, we’ve poured our hearts into creating globally inspired food and cocktails, and unforgettable memories right here in downtown Winnipeg. We couldn’t be more proud of the growth and success the restaurant has seen over the years.

Now, we’re working on something that will completely elevate and reimagine The Merchant Kitchen experience—and we can’t wait to share it with you.

Stay tuned. Something incredible is coming.

A DESTINATION

You could say we’re honoured to be a part of our city’s downtown landscape, but that wouldn’t fully describe the gratitude for our partners and the downtown community. We’ve met and collaborated with individuals and organizations who are some serious local heroes. They are passionate about the integrity of our city and the revitalization of our downtown – and we’re right there with them.

By working along side Downtown Street Biz, CentreVenture, MBLL, the City of Winnipeg, True North Sports and Entertainment, the City of Winnipeg Police Department, and The Group Germaine, together, we will continue the growth and vibrancy of our downtown.
