WHAT TO DO
KENSINGTON MARKET
Everyone admires the diversity of Toronto, and nothing represents this more than Kensington Market. On the same block, you can experience fresh Caribbean, Indian, Vietnamese, and French cuisine. Around the corner, you have your choice of cafes, vegan options, and adorable vintage stores all located in some of Toronto’s oldest homes. It’s an inspiring and vibrant neighborhood full of inspiration and interaction with locals and tourists from all over the world.
Highlights: Vintage stores such as Courage My Love, Sub Rosa Vintage, and Breathless Vintage; restaurants such as Veggie D’Light (Caribbean), Cosmic Treats (vegan),
Hibiscus, and Urban Herbivore.
College Street
Alongside of Kensington Market is a big hub for restaurants, bars, and boutiques. Here you’ll find up-and-coming vegan places alongside of local favorites in Little Italy.
St. Lawrence Market
This 200-year-old market is one of the Toronto’s most beloved mainstays. From the moment you walk in, aromas from all of the different stands hit you one by one: produce, bagels, chocolate, and of course the meat and fish (choose your aisles wisely). On the lower level, you can find pressed juices, bulk coffee and grains, European bakeries, and gifts from around the world. If you’re a fan of antiquing, make sure to stop by on Sunday for their Antiques Market across the street.
