Everything to Eat in Kensington

Kensington Business District in CalgaryIt can be a tough decision when choosing where to eat in Kensington. Its streets are littered with food and drink establishments each with their own flavour and appeal. Located in the inner city, Kensington is an ideal place for those looking for some quality food and drink of any kind after working a long day in the downtown area. Is it a quick pick up order you want? Maybe a fine dining experience with a steak and glass of fruity wine? Or just to watch the game at the pub with some wings and beer? Whatever it is, Kensington has the variety of food and drink necessary to give what you want, when you want it and however you like it!

Top 5 Food and Drink in Kensington

Broken Plate – 302 10th Street NW – 403.283.6300 - *Favorite* - Sit back and relax at the Broken Plate restaurant for some delicious, authentic Greek Food. It’s almost as if their menu items were shipped straight from Greece to be put in front of you for your enjoyment. My favorite is the lamb souvlaki, try it out!

F.A.T.S. Bar and Grill – 504 10th Street NW – 403.270.3225 - *Favorite* - Up to date pub interior with HD TV’, great food and friendly servers! There is no better way to enjoy the game and some good food than at one of the booths at F.A.T.S. Bar and Grill in Kensington. My favorite are the pizzas, any one of them! They are delicious.

Julio’s Barrio Mexican Restaurant and Lounge – 1110 Memorial Drive NW – 403.203.3066 - *Favorite* - Stop in for some delicious Mexican food at Julio’s! This restaurant is very big and is a great place for birthday parties and other large gatherings of the sort. Try their humongous margaritas and beef or chicken fajitas! Yummy!

Peppinos Ristorante and Deli – 1240 Kensington Road NW – 403.283.5360 - *Favorite* - A must try for those looking to get in and get out quick with a scrumptious Italian sub. Peppinos also offers frozen pre-made pastas, sauces and even completed dishes like spaghetti and lasagna. Other Italian goods are also available at Peppinos, as well as the famous Italian Gelato, home made by the Peppinos family! I love the Pollo al Pesto and Meatball.

Pulcinella Restaurant – 1147 Kensington Crescent NW – 403.283.1166 - *Favorite* - An upscale pizzeria with other delicious foods. If you are looking for a fine dining experience in Kensington, then this would be at the top of the list! Absolutely love the pizzas and salads!
