We stumbled upon Harpers Saturday night with the kids. The hubby ate here before and said they make solid burgers. We were seated promptly. Service was pretty attentive and our waitress was phenomenal and really upbeat and sweet. They were on it with the refills too. I really thought the kids would love their food, but they just picked at it during the dinner. What kid says no to waffle fries and a hot dog? Apparently the hot dog looked to juicy? lol. My french fry loving son, had no issues with his fries but skipped the chicken nuggets. My poor husband had to polish off whatever was not eaten by our kids after he ate his burger and poutine. I had the plantbased burger and I had no complaints. I will say their pickles are really great on the burger and loved their house sauce that came on it as well. Their fries are on the meatier side and I only ate a couple and passed the rest on to the kids, since the burger was pretty filling on its own. They had toy story playing on the tv in the restaurant. Super cute. It was pretty pricey coming to around $100 after everything was paid out. I'd probably come back for some apps and small bites in the future when visiting in town.

Delicious burgers, great selection, relaxed atmosphere, nice serving staff! I went to Harper’s on a recommendation and it has the best burgers in Kingston! The menu offers a number of burger options as well as sandwiches and poutine. The pulled pork sandwich and fries are also delicious here! The patio is great for people watching and, while it is small and the tables are located close together, the hustle and bustle of Princess street does much to drown out conversations from other tables allowing some privacy. Our server was very friendly, sweet, and attentive (refilling our drinks regularly, without being asked, on a super hot day - much appreciated!). Parking downtown can be challenging so, if you are planning to be out for several hours, consider parking in a lot (the one at Brock and Wellington is very convenient) - the prices are very reasonable and you pay just before you leave so you don’t have to worry about running back to feed the meter. If you like comfort food, Harper’s Burger Bar is a must try when visiting Kingston!

Service was great. This place is clean and well run. They have a wide selection of unique burgers on the menu. I opted for the classic burger and cheese fries. The burger was good and it's done on a flat top grill, so you get a nice crisp outside with the juiciness on the inside. They have a their own version of a burger sauce which I thought was great. Almost like a chipotle ranch style. The fries were very moist and not to my liking. Overall if you're craving a burger this place wont disappoint. The reason why this doesn't get 4 stars is the pricing. My wife and I each had a drink and an entree and the bill was $70.00 Canadian which is still roughly $50.00 American. For me, a couple sandwiches, some fries, and two beers shouldn't come close to that price.

I would come back for the Caesar’s salad and the Kingston dog, in that order. My friend ordered burger and although it lacks some seasoning (maybe more salt and pepper), the pulled pork made up for it. I also enjoyed eating their candied jalapeños, which my friend removed from the burger because she felt like there’s just too much of it inside. My other friend also enjoyed her waffle fries, which for me could use a little less frying time. We dined al fresco and space maybe tight for a group of 5, but the server helped moved tables and chairs to accommodate our party. Wait was a bit longer at 25 or so minutes, but we didn’t mind since there were several shops around the area. Their toilets were also spacious and clean. :)

You can choose your burger from the patty size (6 or 10oz), to the burger flavour, to the buns, and the sides you want to get (regular fries, criss cut fries, coleslaw (tangy or creamy), etc) We got the classic, crunch and smokehouse. Flavour is ok, nothing much different really than other regular burgers. But our server was very friendly and attentive. The place is conveniently located right in the heart of Kingston at Princess St. Unfortunately, they didn’t have any coffee or hot drinks like hot chocolate or tea. They do have beers, cocktails, and pops. Washroom is clean. When we were here, we used our Kpass for a 15% off because our bill was more than $50 for the 3 burger meals.
