Known for its markets and its striking 19th-century limestone architecture, Kingston is a great base for exploring the Thousand Islands and the St. Lawrence River and its national park. Visit Wolfe Island on the free ferry, or hunt for antiques in nearby villages.

An escape room game is a live action adventure, where you are challenged to use creative and lateral thinking to solve your way out of a locked room. At Improbable Escapes, our games are 60 minutes of intense and unique puzzles in which you must work with your team to try and escape before the buzzer goes off. We pride ourselves on having family friendly games, and have private bookings to ensure you have the most fun with your team!
We went for a team building exercise and it was great. The escape experience really promotes collaboration,teamwork with a sense of urgency that has to be calmed with patience and analytical thinking. The staff are great and the rooms are challenging. If you can go, you should!

Classic movies, first run movies and genre movies on the big screen for $6, $8 or $9 - I love this small venue, downtown, funky cinema - good popcorn and coffee
As lovers of independent films and independent cinemas we were thrilled to find The Screening Room when we came to Kingston. If you're looking for something a world away from massive multiscreens and same old, same old big bash Holywood films then head here PDQ! The staff at The Screening Room are friendly and helpful, the selection of films covers such great variety, and you can also enjoy delicious real-butter-popcorn ... yummy! Admittedly it is rather different since Covid-19 hit, with much smaller audiences and strict guidelines for attendance, but The Screening Room is carefully following all provincial and municipal Covid protocols and we ourselves have adapted to buying our tickets online ahead of time. We have been to see films here again several times since re-opening under pandemic condtions, and we definitely feel safe in this space with strict social distancing, mask-wearing, etc. I encourage people to become members of The Screening Room - the small fee for membership quickly repays you and also supports keeping independent thought alive and well here in Kingston.

A rare and fine example in Canada of Italianate villa architecture, Bellevue was home to Sir John A. Macdonald, Canada's first prime minister. Today, the house is a national historic site, commemorating Macdonald's contribution to the development of Canada. Bel example rare au Canada de villa de style italianisant, Bellevue a été la demeure de sir John A. Macdonald, premier des premiers ministres du Canada. Aujourd'hui lieu historique national, elle commémore la contribution de Macdonald à l'essor du Canada.

CORONAVIRUS UPDATE: browse our gallery online 24/7 on our new 360 interactive site. You can find it at menu “Virtual Shop” on our Website. A quirky and fun little art gallery located in an old alley in downtown Kingston Ontario. It is Ontario's only alley art gallery. The indoor gallery is located at the very end of the alley, beside the courtyard. The other "shops" you will see are not really shops at all - they are facades created to make up a little "village". Currently there is a "fleuriste" (flower shop) and a "poissonnerie" (fish shop). In reality these are the back walls of the restaurant next door. The door to the "fleuriste" is not a door at all, and the door to the "poissonnerie" is the back door/delivery to the restaurant. The "lighthouse" and the "buoy", complete with seagull and nest, are there to store and conceal the restaurant's garbage bins and kitchen oil drum. These themed "shops" serve as backdrops for the outdoor art that display in the corresponding themed area.
I had a wonderful time visiting Martello Alley today with my boyfriend. I loved the way they had done the renovations, it gave the space a unique feel that was both interesting and inviting. The staff were both knowledgeable and friendly and I'm very excited about my purchases! I would highly recommend this lovely hidden gem to anyone who has an appreciation for art and the amazing community that comes together to support local artists.
