Established in 2012, Restaurant Marché is a destination for locals and tourists alike.<br /><br />Patrons are greeted by an atmosphere characterized by its Contemporary French American cuisine. An exhibition kitchen, equipped with a wood-fired grill and three type-1 hoods, provides a glimpse into the craftsmanship behind each dish.

With seating for 48 indoors and an additional 24 outdoors, there is ample space to enjoy the venue’s fresh air and ambiance.<br /><br />This location is perfectly positioned in a hub of mainstay businesses to thrive in a vibrant culinary and local arts ecosystem. Restaurant Marché is surrounded by a diverse array of neighboring restaurants— from the island’s iconic Blackbird Bakery and the traditional Pizzeria Bruciato, to the fresh catch at Proper Fish and the Vietnamese flavors of Ba Sa. The well-known “Farmer’s Market” sign on the side of the Restaurant Marché building leads people to the adjacent Town Square, home of the Saturday Farmer’s Market, the First Friday Arts Walk Moonlight Market, and the newly expanded Buxton Center for Bainbridge Performing Arts.<br /><br />The restaurant’s potential for growth is evident by expanding operating hours and introducing lunch and brunch offerings.
