16 - 18 Radford Street, Stone, ST15 8DA
Harden's survey result
Summary
In a small town to the south of Stoke-on-Trent, Sophie Hardman & Jake Lowndes’s well-established restaurant is one of the best options for a meal in the area: “the food is so well-balanced and there’s fantastic attention from the front of house”.
Summary
The “lovely garden” at Sophie Hardman and Jake Lowndes’s ‘bar and kitchen’ received a major boost this year as it was expanded and improved; and it has a “snug” interior too. There’s the odd quibble that results are “pricey for Stone!” but all feedback says the modern British cuisine is “good” or “very good”.
Summary
“Often unusual food, lovingly prepared” wins praise for Sophie Hardman and Jake Lowndes’s upbeat venture, which recently added an outside terrace for tapas and wine (and dining during service). As well as the à la carte option, there’s a tasting menu available at the weekends.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
