Jun 06, 2026"We stopped by Hard Stones Grill in Kemptville for a late dinner, arriving just under an hour before closing. We were kindly greeted and directed to the bar, where PHIL, the BAR MANAGER welcomed us with such warmth and sincerity, it instantly set the tone for a relaxed and comfortable evening. The food was truly satisfying: * The salad was fresh and clean—simple and refreshing. * The Baby Back Ribs were lean, tender, and flavorful, grilled exactly how we asked—rib fest quality without a doubt * The baked beans and mac & cheese were both delicious. The beans had a smoky richness, while the mac & cheese was creamy and smooth, striking that gourmet comfort food balance. The restaurant itself is a spacious, well-appointed sports bar with comfortable seating throughout. What also deserves special mention is the pristine condition of the restrooms. Each of the three cubicles was stocked with two rolls of soft, double-ply toilet paper—a small but thoughtful detail that speaks volumes, especially to women who often face frustrating dispensers that tear easily and leave bits of paper scattered on the floor. That level of care is much appreciated. We came for a meal and left with an experience that felt genuinely welcoming. While the food and setting were great, it was PHIL’s warm and personable service that made it more memorable.
