Tom's Place

Kensington's haggle-friendly discount menswear institution

Address 190 Baldwin Street, Kensington Market

A Kensington Market fixture for generations, Tom's Place sells brand-name men's (and some women's) suits, shirts and outerwear at well below department-store prices — and, in the old market tradition, the marked price is a starting point. Ask for Tom, mention you're paying cash, and a discount usually follows.

The selection runs from off-the-rack business suits to designer overcoats, with on-site tailoring to get the fit right. It is an only-in-Kensington kind of shop: part bazaar, part menswear store, and a reminder of the neighbourhood's roots as a Jewish garment-trade market.
