Food and beverage is serious business in Kingston.  It is both an experience and a pastime that has evolved into many levels of enjoyment.  You will find over 200 restaurants, pubs and patios, featuring everything from Eastern Ontario cuisine to dishes from around the world.

Kingston boasts its own vibrant Asian, Indian, Greek, Italian and Portuguese communities, which have had a delightful impact on the restaurant scene. The Kingston dining experience can easily compete with the largest cultural and urban centres in North America.

In addition to global flavours, Kingston has access to farms and fields in the surrounding region which provide fresh and often organic options year round.  With a blossoming viticulture industry around us, our local wine makers are gaining national and international attention.

Many of our restaurants and pubs feature live music to entertain you, or you might wish to pick a vantage point from any one of our superb outdoor patios to watch the world go by.  Either way, you'll be delighted at the fine food and drink coupled with friendly conversation and service.
