Place is very unassuming from the outside. Didn't have a reservation but they were very accommodating to get us in for a Saturday night. The food was phenomenal. The staff took time to get into great conversations.Parking: Either park on the street or the Dollar General parking lot.Kid-friendliness: Won't recommend bringing kids. The menu is not meant for children.

My wife and I went there spur of the moment for our anniversary. As we walked in the bartender greeted us and asked if we had reservations, which we did not. He checked to see if there were any available tables, there weren't, but he had 2 seats at the end of the bar. We took those seats and our night was perfect. The atmosphere was so welcoming, a woman entertainer was singing in such a beautiful voice, the other patrons were friendly to us, the food and drinks were fabulous and the service seated at the bar was the best.

I love Stoney's! It's warm and friendly, and the generously portioned food is delicious. I've never had a meal there that wasn't excellent.

I cannot even begin to say how amazing and enjoyable Stoney's was tonight. Very typical cozy Irish Pub with an extremely friendly and helpful staff. Spot on food. I had the Shepherd's pie and the blueberry cobbler cheesecake. 5 stars isn't enough. I want to thank the owner, the chef, and the wait staff on 9/9/23 for the dining experience I had.

I was a bit disappointed with my first meal there. This place has a 4.7 rating, so my expectations were high.I ordered to Chicken Liver Marsala on a friday night. It was fairly busy and a bit noisy. Maybe a couple dozen + people in there. I just wanted the appetizer, but had a little disconnect with waitress. Ended up getting meal with two sides.I ordered the chicken livers medium/pink. I received very well done livers. Came with some buttered toast that was approaching burnt. The Marsala sauce just didn't taste like Marsala. Marsala wine has a very bold and sweet flavor. Even an inexpensive version should be very recognizable. If I got this item as random, I'd never guess it's supposed to be Marsala. It's a simple sauce to make. It's just reduced Marsala wine with demi glace stirred in. Maybe some garlic and herb added. It's pretty difficult to ruin. My side dishes were braised red cabbage and "executive" potatoes. Cabbage was pretty sweet. Potatoes were novel . They were cubed potatoes with olive , ham and seasoning. Unique item I've never encountered before. Meal cost $26+ $5 tip.The decor: It's a bar. It's reasonably clean and well kept. But it's just a small bar. Seats maybe 40 people?Most of the food from neighboring tables LOOKED appetizing. I'm sure there are some good meals there. Broiled scallops, Haddock, Sheppard's pie....etc....Parking was a bit scarce.I live in Albany, this was a bit of a drive for me. If you're a local this probably could be a favorite. I probably won't be back any time soon.
