STUART\/JENSEN BEACH \u2014 The news of 11 Maple Street\u2019s upcoming closing was quickly followed by announcements from two other Martin County eateries.<\/p>\n
CoLab Kitchen, a farm-to-table caf\u00e9, bar and bakery on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard in Stuart, announced Aug. 31 that it will close, according to posts on the restaurant\u2019s Facebook and Instagram pages.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is with heavy hearts that we share that CoLab Kitchen will be closing its doors,\u201d the posts said. \u201cWhile this chapter of CoLab is coming to a close, our story here is not finished. We are taking some time to reimagine this space and what comes next, and we are excited to welcome you back soon in a new form.\u201d<\/p>\n
CoLab Kitchen opened in 2021 at the site formerly occupied by Ground Floor Farm, which closed in 2019 after four years in business.<\/p>\n
The restaurant did not provide additional details, though it was noted that the restaurant is closed.<\/p>\n
CoLab Kitchen owners or representatives could not be reached for comment.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Broth Handcrafted Soups in downtown Jensen Beach also announced its closing on social media.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have decided to close Broth permanently,\u201d owner Carolyn Perkins said in an Aug. 31 Facebook post.<\/p>\n
Located in Pineapple Passage Plaza, Broth opened in May 2025. Perkins, who co-owns Fleet Feet stores in Stuart and Port St. Lucie with her husband, Edgar Perkins, will continue operating both stores.<\/p>\n
