    Flavourful whole foods that leave you feeling good and energized! Their dressings and sauces pack a flavourful punch as well. The soup was complex and comforting as well. Affordable prices! They follow an almost cafeteria concept; you order at the front and pick which proteins/sides for your plate, and then find a table for yourself, and they bring the food to you.

    Wow wish I had this in my city. Fast food that is fresh and healthy. We were served in a record time, and everything was so good. The atmosphere was great. I had the asian tofu, the sweet potatoes and the mac and cheese. There were so many colors in all plates, i wish i had tried all of the menu.

    One of the best places to grab a quick and healthy brunch. Also a great place to dine. Love that you can order through ritual. They have a seperate table setup for ritual orders. Their banana smoothie is my favorite. They also have some of the best turkey sausages I've ever had.

    Big place with lots of tables inside and some outside. It works as a self serve basis. You place your order at the counter, take an order number and they bring you what they prepare. They have a variety of healthy types of food, smoothies and cookies. Me and my friend had smoothies that we enjoyed a lot as well as a chocolate sesame cookie which was delicious. Will definitely come back.

    Amazing food, and they brought it out very quickly. The prices are very reasonable. You either seat yourself or take food/drinks to go. It was a little hard to find seating for our group of 5 (at first) and it was quite loud, but a great place for a Sunday afternoon lunch. I will be back!

    I’m not breakfast people but just close to the place. Normally didn’t eat until noon. So I went for breakfast but not really hungry or want any food that time. Looked at menu and lot of interesting, end up order ABC Toast (sourdough toast, almond butter, banana, coconut toast, maple syrup, sea salt for $7.93 And ordered Northern Comfort ( warm apple cider) $5.76 I pretty much like the ABC toast, bread is crunchy and delicious. Northern comfort is the one I really enjoy for cold morning winter weather. I might go back to try other menu when I am super hungry or lunch time. I like at atmosphere of the restaurant. Nice and clean, easy going style restaurant. Service is good for me, just order and pay at the counter, got your order number at the table and they will bring it to you. I like this kind of service, no need for the server to come to the table and bother you during the meal 😅😊

    5. Had a wonderful first experience at Mary Be Kitchen. Went with a group for lunch so had the opportunity to try many things. The sides are flavorful and delicious- very much enjoyed the brussel sprouts and found all the sides quite flavorful. The smoothies are a great consistency and the desserts (sweet potato brownie and vegan cookie) were both so good!!!!!! Need to return to try the lentil dal and the curry! Returned for the lentil Dahl- and it’s amazing- comes on long grain rice with currents. The regular salted chocolate chip cookie is really amazing too.

    This was my first time getting food here as I usually only stop in for a drink. I loved the variety they had. My friend got 1 protein + 2 sides and I just got 2 sides. We both got the Mac and cheese which was so delicious. My friend got their mocha smoothie which I’ll definitely be getting next time as it was so tasty. I got the ginger maple lemonade which was very refreshing too. I’ll definitely will be coming back here

    I could only rate the food as I've only order from here once. I was really pleased with the quality of the food. There's so many places I can't order from because of the lack of healthy options and persistent stomach issue I have. Often "healthy option" aren't that healthy. However Mary Be Kitchen provided some great food. Quality, prepare well and very tasty. Was like a really well cooked homemade meal. I'm looking forward to trying it in house.

    I love love Mary B, yes it can be quite pricy but the food is excellent! I cant afford to go as much as i would like but i do enjoy this place, everything is made in house or locally grown or sourced! They also have kombucha on tap!

    When you’re looking for a solid lunch joint with healthy and vegetarian options, this should be on your list. I love the steak here and the Mac and cheese isn’t bad. It’s also not mind blowing but it’s solid. And yeeeeesss Brussel sprouts. The turmeric latte is a nice touch too. Good place and love bringing people here for a working lunch or a mid-day grab and gab.

    Simple, inviting decor with spacious seating. The kitchen is fast and the front staff is proactive. Food and drinks are fresh and served at speed with great quality and taste but are on the pricey side. The downstairs could benefit from some work and cleanup. Mary Be Kitchen is a great place to grab a bite and drink, meet, or get some work done.

    Mary Be’s is my favorite lunch spot during the work week. Food is tasty and healthy, coffee is great. Most importantly though, the staff is incredibly sweet and service oriented, never had a bad experience and always a bright spot in my day to come down and grab lunch.

    I’ve been quite obsessed with this place lately, getting it delivered at least once a week or two. I usually get the Be Square, but at this point I tried a good chunk of the lunch menu. I can’t stress this enough, I think this is the best healthy (and truly delicious) lunch place downtown. Their salmon is amazing, chicken is also great and comes with a nice green sauce. But I’d skip the steak if you’re getting delivery as it gets a little overcooked in that time (I can tell it was prepared well though). My favorite sides have definitely been the soup, kale caesar and the mac, but all others are good as well, with only broccoli being a little disappointing (pieces too big, none/too little seasoning and wasn’t grilled enough imo, it almost looked steamed). The desserts are all great, but I was especially surprised by the brownie. It blew my mind when I read it had sweet potato in it - I had no idea this was a thing, and you truly can’t tell. Anyway, I obviously can’t recommend this place enough. If I lived closer to it, I’d probably go there like every day.

    Really adorable spot with delicious healthy food! Can’t wait to come back and try all of the other things on the menu! I had the chicken breast with salsa verde, the mediterranean chopped salad, and the roasted cauliflower.

    Moldy food! Healthy and safety risk. I'm giving Mary Be Kitchen 2 stars instead of 1 because in the past I frequently ordered food from this restaurant so the food is good. But, I just received a Weekenders Breakfast and the scrambled eggs had blue mold growing on them. So proper health and safety measures are not being observed. This is negligent and potentially dangerous. You lost a customer. Additional comment: Dear Sarah, I appreciate your prompt reply. I'm sorry that my camera doesn't capture the bluish-green fuzziness of the mold. I've included a piece of purple carrot so you can see the difference.

    Such a perfect place for a quick lunch with friends! They have options for a light meal. I love how you get to customize your dish and choose the sides + proteins you want. The interior design is so adorable as well. It's a nice place to study or get some work done as well once you're done your meal. I'll be coming here again for sure :)

  • 4/5 S L. 2 years ago on Google
    Wholesome and healthy meal at a cute restaurant. I got the steak with mac & cheese and broccoli. The steak’s seasoning was a bit too sweet for my taste but I enjoyed the sides. Also ordered a greensicle smoothie which was great. The price is a bit steep but a solid option for eating out when you want to keep it clean.
