Food scene
Fantastic barbecue joint in the heart of Kensington and steps away from our home. They have screens downstairs so you can see sports but also live music upstairs on some nights. If you like smoked meats this is the spot for you

Pulcinella
1147 Kensington Crescent NWLocally owned italian restaurant that is a Kensington staple.
Best cheese shop in Calgary in our opinion with excellent charcuterie too. There are nice crackers and jams and chutneys too. Definitely worth a stop. Kensington Wine Market is just next store so you'll have aperitivo sorted in just two stops.

Best movie theatre in Calgary with all day cafe, cocktail bar and food truck
Oldest movie theatre in Calgary that underwent a fantastic facelift and reopened in 2022. It's a fully licensed venue now, so you can grab a drink and a snack to enjoy with your film, or forego the film and just enjoy the vintage pink cafe, speakeasy-style cocktail bar the Sidebar, and and the patio. Has an Airstream kitchen parked outside which at weekends features a roster of local chefs serving hot food that you can take into the auditorium if you like. www.theplaza.ca
