Best & Cool Bars in Kingston

"If you want a cool place with a great vibe, nice staff, and really good food – Red House is for you. This is one of those places that Eric generally went to for drinks but usually ended up getting good food, too. Some might call it a restaurant – either way, we wanted to include it!"

"I wanted to check out downtown Kingston on my way to Ottawa as I hadn't visited in about 15 years”more"

"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."
