Our Story
At Kensington Cafe, we believe food tastes best when itβs served with warmth and care. Weβve been a local favorite in the Kensington neighborhood for years, bringing people together over breakfast, brunch and lunch classics that never go out of style.
Our easygoing vibe is matched only by our passion for community. From our sunny, dog-friendly patio to our cozy dining room, every detail is designed to make you feel like you belong. We love seeing our regulars day after day, and weβre just as happy when someone new finds their way through our doors.
Weβre proud to be part of this historic San Diego neighborhood and to share in the spirit of connection, good food, and genuine hospitality.
Proudly Part of Kensington
Kensington is one of San Diegoβs oldest and most charming neighborhoods, known for its winding streets, iconic Spanish-style homes from the 1920s, and a strong sense of community.
Our cafe is located right on Adams Avenue, the neighborhoodβs central hub where local businesses, shops and restaurants make Kensington feel like a small town in the middle of the city. From longtime staples to fresh new spots, the avenue is full of neighbors weβre proud to call friends.
Whether youβre a local or just passing through, we invite you to explore all that Kensington has to offer, and of course, stop and visit us to relax, grab a bite and feel at home.
