Closure: Food market shuttering its doors this month in Toronto

Places to pick up a few quick food items are always appreciated in Toronto communities, and it’s always a bummer to see one close. However, it also gives the neighbourhood an opportunity to guess what will fill the space.

M&M Food Market is known for its wide selection of frozen foods, which range from meals for one to huge spreads for family feasts to apps to pass around at parties. My personal favourite: the artichoke mac n’ cheese balls.

Sadly, frozen jalapeño poppers and mini cheesecakes will no longer be available in one specific area of Toronto.

M&M Food Market has put a sign in the window of one of its Toronto locations, announcing to the neighbourhood that it will be closing this month.

“Thank you for your patronage,” reads the sign in the window of the M&M Food Market. “Please visit our other store locations that are open to serve you.”

The M&M Food Market location that’s closing its doors is currently in Liberty Village; the signage lists two other locations in Etobicoke: 5230 Dundas St. W. and 250 Wincott Dr.

These are a fair distance from the walkable Liberty Village, but locals see the silver lining in the news of the closure of the area’s location of M&M Food Market, commenting on social media.

In comments on a post on a local Facebook neighbourhood group, people weighed in on what might replace the M&M, with most hoping for a much-needed post office.

The last day for M&M Food Market in Liberty Village will be Nov. 30.
