Always a wonderful place to eat and soak up Kingston’s historic charm. The eclectic menu and fantastic cocktails make for a great evening out! In summertime the patio is the most spectacular patio in Kingston 💕 and in winter the cozy warmth inside makes you want to settle in for the evening ❤️

After years of walking by Chez Piggy my wife finally convinced me to go there in celebration of our 16th wedding anniversary. A late call with a bit of cajoling got us a table for two at 8:30 on a very busy Friday evening.
We showed up about 20 minutes early and were promptly delivered to our table upstairs by the loveliest of hostesses. We were brought a basket of delicious breads and our drink orders were taken and then delivered post haste.
Although the restaurant was filled to capacity the wait staff appeared to be effortlessly satiating the needs of all of their patrons.
My wife ordered a root vegetable soup and I received a shrimp-on-salad appetizer that was part of my "table d'hôte" dinner. While the shrimp and salad were excellent the soup was sumptuously divine. A virtual raft of flavours including horseradish and a magnificent thick texture truly made this a small bowl of heaven.
Now, for the main course. My wife was beyond delighted at the choices that were available to her for order. In a world of limited options for vegetarians in main stream restaurants Chez Piggy has truly broken the " Veg Barrier" with such inspired dishes as the one she ordered.....The Cauliflower Steak! And boy was it delicious. Not some attempt to take a vegetable and press and form it to look like a piece of meat but a beautifully seasoned and grilled chunk of cauliflower served with roasted sweet potatoes, an epic black bean salad and some wonderfully prepared kale. I was presented with a phenomenal peppercorn steak on a bed of some of the best mashed potatoes I have ever had and also with a side of the buttery kale. The meal was 10/10!
My wife enjoyed the desert that came with my table d'hôte which was a flourless chocolate cake which truly topped off this epic meal.
So, all in all folks, I would highly recommend Chez Piggy for all of your fine dining requirements. I certainly know that I won't be just walking by it so often now!
My husband and I absolutely love this place. Exceptional customer service each time we go. We love that we can take our dog out for a walk downtown and stop on the patio for a drink a long the way. Best patio in Kingston .
