Housed within the walls of the historic C.H. Gooderham House, and rooted in the vibrant history of St. James Town, Maison Selby celebrates timeless French cooking with a modern accent. Boasting an impressive list of hand-crafted cocktails, our bar program is second-to-none.

Largely inspired by the bistro and café genre, our menus showcase many dishes that creatively integrate traditional European techniques. Our breakfast and weekend brunch feature a thoughtfully curated selection of pastries and savoury dishes, while our lunch and dinner menus offer sensible yet delicious bistro fare with familiar French favourites like Tuna Niçoise Salad and Coq au Vin.
