We really enjoy eating on the patio at Stone's when the weather is nice. Lovely ambiance. The food is very good though limited vegetarian options. Our server, Hannah, was both delightful and very attentive. The occasional train noise can be a bit bothersome, but infrequent. Overall, a great place to enjoy a nice weather meal outdoors.

Great place for drinks and a decent meal. The service was really good however there was only one waitress serving in the bar area and it was pretty busy. Same issues most restaurant's have currently. We had a great time and enjoyed our time at the establishment..

While the menu seemed a little small we found yummy things on it and they were really good. I’m no steak fan but the side mousing I did off my wife’s plate was delicious. I had a corned beef sandwich which was also good. The staff was friendly and attentive. A really nice experience. Oh and the beer selection was great

The hostess seated us immediately. (Wednesday is not their busy night). We were seated under a speaker, close to the door, and while the music was intrusive, we chose not to move, as we were awaiting the arrival of another member of our party. The server was friendly, courteous and accommodating (we didn't have a smartphone to scan the QR code for the drink menu, so she offered to loan us hers). Our entrees were quite good: Smoked Salmon BLT , meatloaf and gravy and a cheeseburger.

I was meeting with a friend who had a perfectly fine meal while my meal was far from fine. I had cork in my wine, I ordered my sandwich without bacon (I got a lot of bacon on my sandwich), I asked for xtra red bell pepper mayo as there is typically very little put on (and xtra regular mayo) was sent out and for my side I requested my salad to have red wine balsamic on the side (and I got lemon vinaigrette on my salad). My server said she put my order in exactly as I requested and I believe her. I think it was the kitchen who didn't review or didn't care/pay attention.
