Best Nightlife in Pittsburgh

"For a classic Kingston experience, you have to check out Kingston Brewing Company. Also called KBC, the brewery/restaurant has been a staple of Kingston culture for decades. Eric can’t even count how many times he’s been."

"Atomica specializes in Mediterranean cuisine and Italian comfort food, including an entire section devoted to vegan meals. On their plant-based menu, you can choose from tofu bao buns, Caesar salad, Caprese mac & cheese, fungi pizza, or the carne finta pizza. Atomica uses innovative ingredients like cashew mozzarella, fungi bacon, walnut parmesan, and fennel tofu sausage."

"If you are looking for a bit of “surf n’ turf”, head to Dianne’s Fish Bar for some of the best seafood in Kingston. This restaurant is located right down by the waterfront – across from Wooden Heads and right beside the Tourist Information Centre in the Old Train Station. Eric had been a handful of times – each time was excellent."

"Enjoy a fine dining experience in an upbeat brasserie-style restaurant with pocket-friendly pricing. Le Chien Noir features a spacious dining area with a bar where guests can relax and enjoy delicious food accompanied by fine wine. This restaurant offers a variety of menus for diners to choose from including the lunch menu, dinner, brunch, and midday menus."

"With a menu that is seasonal, fresh, and as locally sourced as possible – you can’t go wrong with brunch at Northside. Nestled in downtown Kingston, you can try classics like their Avo Smash (a whole smashed avocado with feta, mint, lemon + thai chilli on grilled sourdough) or branch out and try something new like Spiced Steel Cut Oats (served warm with sweet potato + white cholocate puree, topped with seeded muesli, cacao nibs + nashi pear). As you sip on your afternoon coffee, take a pause from the busyness of everyday life and soak up the atmosphere – you’ll love this cafe inspired by the culture of Melbourne, Australia."

"This shop is inspired by the coffee culture in Melbourne, Australia where coffee is a way of life. Enjoy breakfast accompanied by high-quality coffee and friendly service. Everyone at Northside is extremely passionate about coffee, but they also understand that breakfast is supposed to be lighthearted and relaxed."

"Northside Espresso and Kitchen is a cute cafe in downtown Kingston that’s perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a coffee break. Justin and I went there for lunch one day and we adored their quiet, plant-filled patio. The menu is about 50% vegan and the plant-based options are marked with a V."

"Enjoy coffee brewed in-house, specialty espresso drinks or a perfectly frothed latte as you relax on the patio at Musiikki cafe. The name Musiikki is derived from Swahili for music so you can expect some sweet tunes to be playing at the cafe. Bring your friends for a coffee and stay for the music with Monday night jazz, open mic night on Tuesdays, Folk Night on Wednesdays, and artist’s show features throughout the week."

"The Brass has a great central location in Kingston, making it a favorite with both students and locals. The drinks here are pretty standard but they also serve decent food and the layout makes this a great choice for larger groups. Their flatscreens and TV wall projection screens are perfect for hockey season and the place also hosts live music every Sunday, Monday and Thursday."

"The Brass is one of those places that you go to because you know exactly what you are going to get. Located up on Princess Street in the Hub, the Brass has been frequented by Eric many, many, many times. He’s been for sports (which are great on their screens), wing deal night (wings are good but not great), live music (the Smitty days), and much more."

"This is simple but anything but plain: barbecue by region of the USA. With delicious styles of BBQ, your mouth will start watering as soon as you get in the door at this Kingston restaurant. Try the summer cocktails here, too, and be sure to look for taste bud tingling take out packages that would feed your whole family."

"www.pilothousekingston.ca (Not enough for you? Okay, it’s a great little pub which has been around forever, or at least it feels like that. Limited space inside but a big side patio, great beer selection and good food.) www.pilothousekingston.ca. Rate This Restaurant. Rate This Restaurant"

"While most would just call it “Pilot House”, this small pub at the corner of King and Johnson is another classic. It’s definitely a more local place – and the interior hasn’t been updated in a while… but that’s what makes Pilot House great. A true local watering hole!"

"If you’re looking for a classic greasy-spoon diner, Morrison’s Restaurant is your place. My go-to is their two eggs over-easy with sausage, toast, and home fries for $6.50. The service is quick and the breakfast is always delicious (especially their perfectly soft and seasoned home fries)."

"A welcome (relatively) new addition to the community, Riverview Shopping Centre is your one-stop shop for some of the biggest brands, including a drive-through Starbucks for when you’re just passing through. All your basic needs can be met here. Including great coffee options, a ‘Food Basics’ for your groceries, and a large ‘LCBO’, which has a huge selection of alcohol including craft beer and vintage wines and spirits."

"Host to as many as 141 stores, Cataraqui Centre is home to all the biggest brands and is a great place to come to spend the day. Arguably the best Kingston has to offer in the way of shopping centres, here you’ll find everything you need to keep you entertained and turn that whimsical shopping trip into an enjoyable day out. Whether you’re alone, with your partner, or even with the kids, Cataraqui Centre has something for everyone."

"Having only opened a few years ago, Crave has quickly become a community favourite because of its comfortable and convenient downtown location, excellent staff and to-die-for cinnamon buns. Next time you have a project, head over to the cozyCrave Coffee House and dig in to some delightful baked treats."
