Waverley is literally steps to Kensington Market. This vibrant neighbourhood is rich with one-of-a-kind boutique shops, exciting cocktail bars, and some of the city's best eateries. Here is a list of a few of our favorite places to eat in Kensington Market:
Top Gun Burgers
Top Gun Burger's is a Kensington staple located near the corner of Nassau Street and Augusta Avenue. This burger joint offers a mouthwatering selection for delivery and takeout. The diverse menu includes 6oz prime beef burgers plus chicken, steak, and veggie options. Don't forget to try a freshly blended milkshake for dessert or top your meal off with decadent cheese fries! Either way, you will leave planning your next visit back.
Seven Lives Tacos y Mariscos
Serving Baja style tacos for nearly a decade, this stylish shop sits at Kensington Avenue near Baldwin Street. Whether you are craving grilled shrimp or braised pork, these tacos are bursting with flavour. The Seven Lives house-made salsa is a must try.
Knockout Chicken
Popcorn chicken, chicken strips, chicken sandwiches, and saucy wings - all this and more at Knockout Chicken. Located on Augusta Avenue and open for takeout and delivery, their menu also features vegetarian and vegan-friendly options. With daily specials and discounts on combos for one or two, this relatively new eatery is quickly becoming a local favourite.
The Best Istanbul
Grab dinner tonight from the diverse menu in this Turkish restaurant located on the corner of Augusta Avenue and Baldwin Street. Serving sandwiches, wraps, platters, and desserts, including vegetarian options, The Best Istanbul truly lives up to its name. This Kensington restaurant is currently open for curbside takeout and delivery.
Rasta Pasta
Rasta Pasta, located on Kensington Avenue, is an over-the-counter eatery serving sizeable portions of unique Jamaican-Italian fusion meals. We highly recommend the Jamaican Mi Crazy jerk chicken served with rice and veggies, the Reggae lasagna with spicy tomato sauce, or The Tuscan - a jerk pork panini served with house-made coleslaw.
