Marta’s Cafe

Marta Café and Pantry opened its doors in early March in the former location of Latin take-out restaurant, Cocina Pequena. The two co-owners, Nikita Williams and Ellie Shortt, have transformed the space. The atmosphere in the café casual and everything is counter service.

Some savoury options are all elegant selections but served as decent portions. The Full Marta—a west-coasty full English—includes eggs, greens, tomato jam, toast and a choice of grilled avocado, sausage or bacon. In addition to their seasonal brunch salad, oats, and a kale and mushroom hash, they also offer an ever-changing selection of tartines (or what they call “stuff on toast”). Another option still is the spiced eggplant and eggs—cumin-roasted eggplant, onion, tomato sofrito, salsa verde, aioli, greens, Grana Padano and toast.

Enjoy a coffee and a pastry, or have lunch. Marta’s Cafe is a great addition to this part of Victoria.
