Stone’s Public House

Stone's Public House, in the time-honored tradition of New England and the old country of Ireland, invites you in for a pint, a conversation and, of course, some of the finest cuisine Metrowest has to offer. Our Public House prides itself on a rich history of fine food and drink, friendly service, camaraderie and, perhaps, a whisper of spirits not to be found anywhere else!

    Stones Public House has a great menu, and had a special St Patrick’s Day menu as well. Corn beef and cabbage and Sheperd’s pie were both delicious with the right amount of veggies and meat. Stone’s is always a good dining experience: both consistent and caring.

    Excellent food and service, even more so given the St. Patrick's day festivities.

    Fabulous food, as always. Wish I had our waitress’s name, as she was wonderful. Way to be consistent with the great food and service!

    Not great this time as something has changed. Starting with A La Carte Menu changes, why? Service was slow, maybe too busy. Our favorite app, scallops, while good taste, was a mess. Half of them broken in pieces and plating was a mess. Then the main course , fish and chips were fried with skin still on which made them impossible to chew, awful. Cole slaw inedible as swimming in mayo. Have to says it had been our favorite place and hopefully, things get back to their usual standard.

    Great beer selection. All the food is good. It's like home cooking or mom's. I've never had a bad experience at this restaurant.

    Our reservation in the bar was not honored, we were sat next to the door to the kitchen and the host would not consider our request to change tables, our appetizer was served cold when it was supposed to be hot, and our entrees were underwhelming and not worth the price. We have eaten many times here and had a great meal; this was a disaster and soured our opinion of Stone’s.
