Big birthday coming up? Give it more than just cake and candles, give it a vibe. Markham’s birthday restaurants have a serious range, from cosy bistros along Unionville Main Street to stylish spots near Downtown Markham, where birthday dinners feel more like mini getaways. If you’re bringing a handful of close mates or going all out with family, you need to make sure you are using the right restaurant. You deserve a space that doesn’t just serve food, but celebrates you. Tagvenue makes it ridiculously easy to browse the best birthday restaurants in Markham and book your spot in minutes. Because your day should be about making memories, not stress.
Unionville is the most popular spot, with multiple high-capacity venues like Casa Victoria and La Grotta on Main offering elegant dining and large group seating. Commerce Valley is another great choice for party halls, with venues like M Club offering capacity for up to 250 guests. For traditional, spacious dining rooms, Old Markham Village and Milliken Mills West also have options worth considering.
Some venues allow outside catering or BYOB, particularly if they operate on a hire-fee model. However, most restaurants in Markham are fully licensed and prefer to serve in-house food and drinks. Always ask the venue manager directly to see if there’s flexibility for bringing in special items, or use our search filter to find venues with your preferred catering option.
While Markham is about a 30–40 minute drive from Pearson Airport, venues in Commerce Valley or Milliken Mills West (like TownePlace Suites) offer more direct access to major roads like Hwy 407 and Hwy 404, making them convenient for guests flying in.
To get the best value, book on a weekday or earlier in the day, which can lower minimum spend or hire fees. Smaller spaces in cafés or casual restaurants like Symposium Café or D Spot Dessert Café offer lower per-person costs. Use Tagvenue’s filters to sort by price and guest capacity to quickly find what fits your budget.
