Food is pretty good here. More of a lunch time spot though. The pretzels are a fan favorite as they are great every time! I would say that the smash burgers or any of the pizzas are the way to go when you order from here

We had an awesome experience—even without touching the famous self-serve beer taps. And trust me, they have a lot of beer. Like… “you need a PhD in Tapology” levels of beer. But since we’re sober (and admittedly a little boring), we admired them from a distance like two museum guests appreciating fine art.
The good news? You absolutely don’t need alcohol to enjoy this place. The food was fantastic, the service was on point, and the entire atmosphere was great. Our server was seriously awesome—friendly, attentive, and somehow managed to make us feel cooler than we actually are.
If you want a spot with great vibes, amazing food, and enough beer options to impress even your pickiest friends—while still being totally enjoyable for the sober folks—Highly recommend!!!

Emmy at Oak & Stone was awesome! Super friendly and easy to talk to, she genuinely looked out for us the whole time. It’s easy for a server at the end of the night to “check out” and be ready to go home, Emmy was the exact opposite. Great recommendations and checked in without hovering. She just made the experience better overall. You can tell she cares and that goes a long way. We’ll definitely be back and hope to have her again!

We brought a Meetup group of about 20 people to Oak & Stone and our server Angel absolutely crushed it. Managing a group that size is already impressive, but we also had separate checks, constant drink orders, and a mix of food orders coming in all night.
Angel handled everything like a total pro. She was organized, attentive, and somehow always appeared exactly when someone needed something. Not a single person in our group had an issue the entire night.
Multiple people in our Meetup kept saying how amazing she was. Angel is an absolute rock star and one of the best servers our group has ever had. She made the whole night run smoothly and we had such a great time because of her. Thank you Angel and thank you Oak & Stone !!!!!

And my wife had the grilled chicken buffalo salad and said it’s the best of her life! A BIG thankyou to our server Shannon!!! Not to mention exceptional service from Vince at the bar and even the manager Lea stopped by to make sure everything was just perfect! Best crew EVER! Thanks again to Shannon!

Love this place, it’s consistently great! My wife likes the pepperoni Pizza, I LOVE the Winger pizza! I’ve also had the wings and they were delicious. The happy hour is one of the best. I would say the beer wall is a little pricey but they do have a great selection so I can’t knock them much for that. Overall we definitely recommend. It’s one of those places we take friends when they come and visit for sure

We came in last night and the food was fantastic. But we like the tap wall selection even more. Scott was such a big help explaining everything and giving recommendations. We noticed he was also very help to his coworkers. We will definitely be back again soon

Tuesday night dinner outing and stopped at the Oak & Stone. Staff met us at the door and were very pleasant. Gave us options of seats, which is always a nice option.
The menu seemed to be limited compared to other restaurants, but pretzel sticks and pizza were good.
They have 50 self-serve beers with a few ciders and wine, which was a neat concept allowing you to peruse and select those you wanted to try.
Waitress was great, friendly, helpful and checked on us several times.
Try to make it for the happy hour for some of the bargains.

Stopped here for lunch while camping at Myakka River SP. We arrived at opening time (11 am) and were the only 2 people in the place. The waitress took time to explain how the tap wall worked and helped us pour our first flight. We ordered a Sweet Heat pizza and it was delicious! We enjoyed the local craft beer selection, pizza, and excellent friendly service. We will definitely be back when in the area!

Our experience at Oak & Stone was made truly exceptional thanks to bartender Veronica Montegari. From the moment we sat down, she was warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. Veronica struck the perfect balance between being friendly and professional—making us feel welcome without ever being overbearing.
Her drink recommendations were spot-on, crafted perfectly, and delivered with impressive speed and care. She clearly takes pride in her work and it shows in every detail, from her efficiency behind the bar to the genuine way she engages with guests.
It’s rare to come across service that elevates an entire dining experience, but Veronica absolutely did that for us. Oak & Stone is lucky to have her, and we’ll definitely be back—hopefully with Veronica behind the bar again. Highly recommend!
