The new Holts Café is set to open on January 22nd, 2020:

UK-based architect Alex Cochrane designed the new space, with renderings indicating a luxurious environment overlooking busy Bloor Street towards the recently opened Eataly at Manulife Place. Executive Chef Benjamin Lillico will bring a “contemporary Canadian menu” to the new Holts Café Bloor Street.

Views will be particularly prominent, given that the Holts Café will feature 20-foot-high glass windows overlooking the street. The dramatic windows will be part of the new facade of the Holt Renfrew Bloor Street flagship which will be unveiled later this spring.

The new Holts Café will occupy the same space as the previous restaurant on the mezzanine level of the Holt Renfrew bloor Street flagship — the restaurant is located on the same floor as the updated 8,000-square-foot women’s footwear hall which re-opened in the store last spring. The new restaurant will seat up to 145 guests in the dining room, bar, lounge area and private dining room.

Holt Renfrew to Debut New Restaurant Concept at its Bloor Street Flagship This Month

A change in branding means that the announced ‘Colette Grand Café’ will not open in the massive Mink Mile department store, though the elevated new space will operate under the same corporate umbrella.

That actually looks surprisingly fresh - and those panels of glass are pretty long!

Agreed. So weird though, what's the point of the tall 20 foot windows (they even emphasize this as a feature in reno descriptions) if the space behind isn't actually 20 feet high. The experience from inside will be just like having 10 foot windows.

Alex Cochrane also recently designed some (very chic) new spaces in Selfridge's in London, which is of course also owned by the Westons.

The new Holts Cafe is gorgeous; a completely transformed space.

Also the washrooms might be the nicest in Toronto?
