Kingston Food

Rich cultural heritage meets gastronomic experience in Kingston, an area that has all the ingredients needed for a delicious culinary adventure! 

With the oldest continually running market in Canada, an abundance of celebrated local chefs and some of the richest and most diverse agricultural land in the province, Kingston is poised to become our country's next culinary tourism destination.

Set amongst a historical limestone backdrop, Kingston's restaurants boast the freshest local ingredients masterfully paired with wine from our neighbours in Prince Edward and Lennox & Addington Counties to create an epicurean experience that must be tasted to be believed.  Within a hundred mile radius of the city centre our culinary experts have a wide array of local products such as our renowned maple syrup, cheeses, and heirloom vegetables to create with and be inspired by.

Kingston's many local food festivals and events are sure to capture a diversity of palates.  Annual events such as the Kingston Public Market birthday celebration and the Strawberry Social are excellent opportunities for a family tasting experience. Our annual Fare on the Square event is the pinnacle of the Kingston food scene with local farmers and chefs showcasing the best this region has to offer.  In addition, cooking demos, live entertainment, and taste tours are all ongoing attractions at the Kingston Public Market not to be missed in 2012!

From sipping local wine on Kingston's welcoming restaurant patios, to exploring the market guided by one of our renowned chefs, we invite you to become a part of culinary history with us!
