As its name suggests, Mercatino in The Bow building combines a mini-market layout and cafeteria-counter service. Its Mediterranean-style meals are best enjoyed on the sunny and very spacious Plus 15 seating area inside the arch of The Bow’s south side or on the narrow seating area facing Chinatown. Expect daily lunch features at its hot-entree and buffet counters such as chef’s risotto, Vietnamese-style subs and Spolumbo sausage with perogies.
Also taking advantage of the ample natural light of The Bow building’s second-floor food-court atrium, Mercatino is a Mediterranean-style breakfast-and-lunch cafeteria. Opposite its hot-food counter is a refreshing little juice and coffee bar serving beans by locally acclaimed Fratello Coffee Roasters. Here you can pick up a steamy espresso or Nutella latte, or chill out with a mixed berry smoothie.
