Oakville is Going Glamourous with the First Ever Marilyn Monroe Cafe
Oakville’s going Hollywood this Summer – Marilyn Monroe is coming to town…
No this isn’t an Elvis sighting kind of thing… A couple days ago I got an email announcing that Authentic Brands Group is bringing the Marilyn Monroe Cafe to downtown Oakville. Now, before you roll your eyes, this isn’t a Planet Holywood, or Hard Rock Cafe kind of thing. It’s about style. The Marilyn Monroe Cafe is designed to be the type of place the iconic Holywood star would have hung out in. Check out the press release below and stay tuned for more information closer to the grand opening this August. In the meantime, share your thoughts on the Oakville’s Marilyn Monroe Cafe and comment below. Cheers, Ryan
