The BACKYARD at Renaissance provides the ultimate in open-air park-like dining for Downtown Kingston. This new patio provides more than 120 seats in a predominantly shaded downtown location. We offer a full bar service and full-service restaurant featuring a refreshing summer, South-West-inspired menu. 2025 will introduce some new Mexican flavours. If you are looking for a unique out-door dining experience; this is your answer. We offer a wide variety of seating options with dining tables, high-top tables, lounge areas with fire tables and a large bar. Three of our spaces in 2025 will be enclosed on three sides and secured from rain, creating a tropical cabana look. The patio is located immediately behind Renaissance, 285 Queen Street (between Barrie and Division Streets). Please access the patio off of Queen Street, following the walkway beside Renaissance. The Backyard is pet-friendly. Bring your pet along for some good times! We welcome large group reservations. Call us for a quote for your family or corporate BBQ or summer patio event or visit for more information for reserved events at The Backyard.
Friday & Saturday nights from 8:00 to 11:00 we will feature our in-house DJ – K SPINZ, weather permitting. Come check out the beats!
