Kingsbury Brook is a tributary of Huntington Creek in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. It is approximately 1.5miles long and flows through Huntington Township. The watershed of the stream has an area of 1.27sqmi and it has two unnamed tributaries. Wild trout naturally reproduce in the stream. The surficial geology in its vicinity mainly consists of alluvium, Wisconsinan Till, Wisconsinan Ice-Contact Stratified Drift, bedrock, and wetlands.
Kingsbury Brook begins in a valley southeast of the community of Southdale, in Huntington Township. It flows southwest for a short distance before turning south-southwest and then west-southwest, passing through a small pond. The stream then turns southwest and receives an unnamed tributary from the right. It then turns south for a few tenths of a mile before crossing State Route 4006 and then receives an unnamed tributary from the left. A short distance further downstream, it reaches its confluence with Huntington Creek.

The surficial geology along Kingsbury Brook in its lower reaches mainly features alluvium, which contains stratified sand, silt, gravel, and some boulders. Some Wisconsinan Ice-Contact Stratified Drift, which contains stratified sand and gravel along with some boulders, is present along the sides of the stream's valley. Further away from the stream, the surficial geology includes a glacial or resedimented till known as Wisconsinan Till, as well as a patch of Wisconsinan Bouldery Till. The upper reaches of the stream mainly have Wisconsinan Till in their vicinity. The surficial geology of the area features bedrock consisting of sandstone and shale in a few places.
The watershed of Kingsbury Brook has an area of 1.27sqmi. The stream is entirely within the United States Geological Survey quadrangle of Stillwater.
Kingsbury Brook was entered into the Geographic Names Information System on August 2, 1979. Its identifier in the Geographic Names Information System is 1178500.
