The peameal bacon sandwich at one of the BBQ stalls is a local legend. Sunday is less crowded and better for families.

About

Taste of the Kingsway transforms the Bloor West strip in Etobicoke into a lively street fair. Local restaurants offer samples and full plates, there's a main stage with live music, a kids' zone, and a classic car show. It feels like a small-town fair planted in the middle of the city's west end.

What to Expect

A weekend street festival with food from local restaurants, live music, craft vendors, classic car show, kids' activities. Family-friendly and relaxed.

Pro Tips

Bring the kids — the children's area is well run. Walk the full strip before committing to food; the best stalls are sometimes at the far ends.
