Marta al Mare officially opens on Thursday in Harbor Point, leading a bustling week of culinary events, openings, and autumn festivals across Baltimore.

The new Harbor Point spot joins a wave of food and drink updates across the city, ranging from newly reopened neighborhood bakeries to high-profile wine dinners.

The Little Hungarian Bake Shoppe reopened on Fleet Street this week, while Lib’s Grill prepares to open its newest location in the former Grill at Harryman House space in Reisterstown later this month. Café Fili’s Locust Point location is just days away from opening, and Little Ian’s Bagels—run by the team behind Café Dear Leon—is planning a soft opening this weekend in Patterson Park.

Festive autumn events kick off this weekend. The Fells Point Farmers Market transitions to its winter hours on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., running through late April. On Saturday afternoon, the Hamilton-Lauraville stretch of Harford Road hosts a Cocoa Crawl, and Power Plant Live! welcomes the Baltimore Soul Food Festival with karaoke, a DJ, a band, and food vendors.
