On one side you can buy Mimolette cheese and on the other side of the road there is Coco Bread with Patty (Jamaican Food). Its colorful, vibrant and fun.

Try to visit the Market and the very interesting Kensington Market Walk which features the graffiti art of local artists.
What a great market. Lots of street vendors, delicious restaurants and great stores. Fun place to walk around.
Historic area of town that has been a cultural centre for many different groups of immigrants over the years. One of Toronto's oldest synagogues is in the middle of Kensington and is still operational. Monthly street festival in the summer.
Had never been to the Kensington area before but enjoyed this visit to the max. Wonderful little shops and cafes. Every kind of interest is covered in this small area of Toronto. We sat for lunch in a little open air spot watching people, wide variety of characters for sure!!! Make time if u have a free afternoon.
Great little shoppes, good butcher, good baker a tons of places to eat. You can even find a place to 'smoke' if you look!
Coffee shops, restaurants, bars, cheese, meat, seafood, Vegis, flowers, ethnic, art, vintage and funky clothing, bakeries, hardware, etc. lots to do and see. Plan on staying awhile and make sure you cover all the side streets.
During Easter weekend, walked over to Kensington market. It was a first for me. I walked around for several hours, taking in the many wonderful sights and sounds of the eclectic stores , shops, and restaurants. Will definitely go back for more

I love the area, it's quaint and friendly and the smell from the restaurants and shops can be nice or ' what tha?' but that's what makes it interesting. It's fun and interesting to walk through, it reminded me of the Plateau area in Montreal but condensed.
