We were nicely and very casually greeted by entering the pub with a great atmosphere. Live music was supposed to start a bit later but it was already a pleasant place to hang out. The waiter was kind and interesting and the walls were decorated with the most entertaining and interesting maps, pictures etc. Looks like a place one can easily hang out with friends, go for some live music and drinks.
We came for food as we got the place recommended while visiting town and I was sold by the different Gluten free options. The menu looked interesting and many/most items contained vegetable and herbs from their own garden and many dishes were partially or fully organic while it was still sharply priced. the dishes were not ordinary and from all around the world!
The place would have received a 5 star review if the food didn't turn out to be that spicy - as if you ask in a Thai restaurant for the entree with the three out of three jalapeno pepper sign. We received some extra rice to cool it down and the waiter was very good about it.
Will certainly come back if we are around and recommend all our friends to come as well!
Good food, bad service, no really bad service. Â Â
Went for Sunday brunch, were seated immediately, ordered about 15 minutes later, and then waited over an hour for our food. Â Â
Table to our right walked out. Â Table to our left complained to the manager and then walked out. Â
We won't be back.
We are new to the neighborhood and stopped here on our first night in. Â We can't wait to make this a regular place. Â Was pleasantly surprised by prices for really quality food. Â My boyfriend's burger was phenomenal and so was the kitchen sink mac. Â I love that they put enough veggies in there that it doesn't feel heavy and easily made 2 meals for me. Â My only complaint is there is too much bread on the pimento cheese app, however the pickle it came with are great, ask for extras!!! Â We sat at the bar, bartender was informative about the neighborhood while still allowing us a date night. Â Great ambiance!
Review Source:I dragged my parents out here for my birthday brunch after having recalled reading an article about it in the Nashville Scene (and maybe because there was a really attractive shirtless bartender in said article). I was not disappointed!
I ordered the chicken and waffles, which was my biggest reason for being interested in the place. They came with a side of syrup and a side of hot sauce, and you decided how much you drenched your food in each. It was delicious. The Bloody Mary I washed them down with was mighty tasty as well!
We sat on the back porch, which has a few tables and overlooks a garden, where I think they might grow some of their own herbs. The inside of the place has a very East Nashville feel to it, a bit hipsterish, but also seems like someplace I could just cozy up with a book on a rainy afternoon. I think I recalled seeing a couch or two inside as part of some of the seating.
My only complaint was that parking was a bit difficult. Otherwise, this place is truly worth checking out!
(I also tragically never encountered that cute shirtless bartender, but I'll settle for the waffles.)
West Nashville hot spot!
This is an adorable house that has been converted to a hip restaurant.
Great for a happy hour hangout with friends, family, or co-workers. On Mondays they have two-for-one specials.
Beyond that, they have great apps and delicious burgers.
One of my favorite things? Owned and ran by a brother and sister, who both serve and bartend. They have created a local spot with great music and a place where you could become a regular.
Definitely a must!
I like to think that the Stone Fox is an upscale dive bar. It's an old repurposed house (like many other fine establishments in this city) and has ample seating, indoors and outdoors. The patio is a nice place to enjoy an evening drink. A rich collection of local craft ales, and regular beers, tantalize the tippler at their tiny bar. While their food selection is quite good, I was left hollow at their brunch choices. The portions were tiny, and nothing to write home about. There is a place for a live band, and dance sessions erupt periodically. The crowd that hangs out here is "different", by which I mean no suits or pretty clothes.
Review Source:Wonderful little restaurant/bar/music venue.
When my friends in Nashville asked where our group was going and I mentioned The Stone Fox they all remarked on how isn't that the place on the West side? Â Which is true. Â The Stone Fox might be something that you would expect to see over near The Pharmacy but rather is on the other side of town near...nothing. Â It's in a residential area. Â In fact, The Stone Fox is made from an old house.
The beauty of this is the benefit of the porches. Â In addition, the inside has a very homey feel to it, like the front room that has small lighting and large antique maps covering the walls. Â The food is a delight, with their late night menu serving healthy apps like the kale and onion hummus pizza (gluten free). Â
I would go so far as to say that this place is a hidden gem. Â Because it is still newer and in a non-commercialized part of town not very many people have heard about it or been to it yet, meaning you can slip into it on a late evening and catch a really amazing live show on their inside small stage and eat really tasty, healthy food or just shoot the shit on the porch area with friends (back porch is bigger). Â The night we went there was a really great 2 piece band from Mississippi playing.
I had to write an update after coming back for dinner and loving it! I had heard not so great reviews about their brunch from friends, BUT I'm hoping that maybe its just they are busier at brunch and they were still new?
Either way, my friend and I came in for dinner before a show, and ordered drinks and food in the back fenced area. Our waitress was awesome and sure to keep our glasses full. I sampled a couple of cocktails that were really really great and I had a black bean bowl and my friend had a cheeseburger with curly fries. Both were delicious and we ate every bite! Food was seriously delicious!
Seems like they change up the menu a good amount since my black bean dish is no longer on the online menu :( sad! However I see that they have replaced it with a couple other items that look pretty amazing in comparison.
Maybe coming here for dinner is the trick, but I'll give it a shot for brunch too!
First time here. Â Good start upon arrival...pleasant server and came to the table quickly. Â Ordered drinks and reviewed the menu. Â Server offered some good suggestions. Â Unfortunately, we then waited 40+ minutes before our server finally came to the table and said they'd lost our ticket. Â They said the meal was comped and would come out quickly, but others continued to get their food.
Food was good and I like the atmosphere, but wouldn't rush to go back.
The Stone Fox is exactly that. A stone cold fox. Too good to be true!
I've been here a few times now. Haven't sat inside yet, because it appears that we only go to the SF when the weather is perfect! Â The first time was mid-day, and we grabbed a beer on the back porch, which was fantastic! I love that there is plenty of seating and that there is a little mini garden growing on the fence. I also love that the beer selection - while fairly limiting - was very satisfying. Great options.
The second time I went here, I enjoyed a nice meal on the front porch. Â The waitress was a little all over the place, but she was really nice and the food was great. Boyfriend and I split a burger + a kale salad, and both were more than I was expecting out of bar food. I really wanted to try the fried pickles, but I'll save those for another time.
If you're looking for a great porch, a delicious craft beer, and a fun bar (check out their events - super cool stuff going on here!), this should be your new favorite local pub. I know it's mine!
This is MY bar, and no I don't mean that I own it, but I love it like a child I sprung straight from my womb. I have never had anything other then an amazing A+++ time here.
Conversation that happens almost everyday:
Me: Where do you want to go for dinner?
Husband: Hm, what do you want?
Me: I want to go to Stone Fox
And off we go. Honestly, this place is the best. The food, the amazing (and strong!) cocktails can't be beat, the staff is friendly and attentive... the back patio is great for enjoying good weather, the bands they book are TOP NOTCH... what more could a gal ask for? Throw in a few friends (which are easy to make here and I've met MANY!) and it's a recipe for a rollocking good time. Thank you Stone Fox for being so awesome. I love you and will see you tonight.
My dude-friend played a gig here a few weeks ago. The staff was unbelievable. They couldn't have possibly been more accommodating to our dietary restrictions. So outrageously friendly and understanding. The kale salad and the pimento hushpuppies were two vegetarian options that we tried and liked but what was really bananas was the jackfruit prepared as pulled pork. Weirdest concept that totally works. Weeks later I'm still thinking about that dish- So unique. We also tried the Sweet PLT and a Southside cocktail. Should have tried the Babs On a Budget- St. Germain is my jam. If I lived in Nashville, I would come here several times a week. Super charming spot with the loveliest patrons.
+They have an enormous parking lot that accommodated our enormous van with more than enough space for at least a dozen additional whips
I love this place! Â Quintessential hipster hangout. Â I definitely love the black velvet Burt Reynolds. Â The place reminds me of a cross between the old Iguana and what 12th and Porter used to be like for those "of a certain age" who remember when Jodie Faison ran the best places in town. Â Stone Fox has a great beer selection and I'll be back to try out the weekend brunch.
Review Source:Atmosphere: The back patio is a great spot to share dinner. Â The smell from the smoker and all the trees is great! The only downside is the few mice my friend and I saw scurrying across the ground to get under the house. I'm assuming this kinda comes with the territory with it being in an older area of town. However, I will say its something that really needs to be taken care of.
Drinks: I had The Kate- which was excellent! Extremely refreshing!
My friend had the White Sangria which was ok but we both liked The Kate better.
Food: We shared the Stone Fox Cheeseburger with the Marrakesh Express salad and the Meat N Three with the Smoked chicken with Cajun Mac and Cheese. The Cheeseburger was awesome. The meat was fresh and the bun perfect! The Smoker chicken was not at all what I expected. I got well cooked chicken that was unfortunately drowning in some sort of Tabasco based marinade. It in no way had a smoke flavor- all I tasted was vinegar. They should call it spicy chicken not smoked. The Marrakesh Express salad could have been great but the kale was too raw- I would suggest cooking it slightly so it's not so hard to eat. I think it would actually taste better warm.
Dessert: Coconut tres leches was absolutely wonderful. Would have loved the coconut toasted a little on top but not necessary.
Service: Good. Not overly pushy but could have been a tad more attentive.
Overall I'd go back- but maybe sit inside this time :/
I have found my new neighborhood bar! The Stone Fox!
I have been hearing a lot of great things about The Fox over the past months, but have never made it in. All I can say is that I shouldn't have put it off for so long.
What I like about it so much are the two patios. One in the front and a larger one out back. Great for these nice Spring/Summer days. The smoking policy on the porches can leave you gagging while eating dinner, this knocks my rating down at least half a star. You shouldn't be able to smoke where other non-smokers are eating. Just saying.
For a place I consider mainly a bar, their food menu is solid. They also have a few vegetarian options that are quite good. I chose to skip it dessert, but it sounded damn good. Maybe next time. Their draught beer selection is...alright. About 10 rotating taps, but not nearly as beefy as it could be. Though I am never disappointed in the limited selection.
Also, check out their music calendar. Tons of live music almost every night.
Solid neighborhood pub. I cant wait to get to know you better Fox!
They serve beer in mason jars...
Hipster apocalypse!
I really liked this little joint. I'm practically never on the westside...Stone Fox may have given me a reason to venture there now. We came for a friends show and I was sorely disappointed that we did not eat dinner here. Instead we just stood around and drank our cold mason jar beers. As a former geography major graduate I have to say I'm semi obsessed with the American wall map on the wall near the stage. I also loved the very pinteresting idea of using pallets as a fence for their rear patio, complete with herbs in between the slats. I really hope that during meal service they don't allow smoking back there.
I will definitely come to see small gigs at The Stone Fox. I heard that it used to have better acoustics but honestly I feel like if the band knows what it's doing, it shouldn't matter too much.
Anyway worth going to for surely! Can't wait to try some grub!
Seen some of the best shows since I've been in Nashville here. The interior is Twin Peaks(the show)with a modern kick which is awesome. The back porch area has a great atmosphere. I have eaten here once and the BBQ Nachos were layered with BBQ so every chip had some toppings, and the fried pickles were delicious. Very cool
Review Source:I.love.their.brunch.
The boy had chicken and waffles and I was so annoyed! You know when you order something and then realize after it comes that you should have gotten what your dining partner ordered. Yeah, that was me. I kept trying to steal his food. Not that what I ordered was bad, his was better! Â What I ordered was the BBQ pork omelet. My problem with the item was that there was too much pork in the omelet and that they seemed disconnected. I think I would have liked it better if it was BBQ pork served with two fried eggs, eggs over-easy or scrambled. That way the items could mix in harmony. What ended up happening was that I unfolded the omelet and ate the pork out of the middle with the potatoes. Even so we were on the back patio and it was great. Relaxing, calming, and sipping on a mimosa in a mason jar, I was content. It's almost two totally different venues when you eat out back. Next time I plan on trying the enchiladas. I hear wonderful things about them!
Beyond brunch we went for the Kentucky Derby. The place was packed, the bartenders were hustling, and the ponies were racing. Mint Julep in hand I watched my horse not win. (wha whaa)
Overall I'm a huge fan of the Fox. I left feeling like, but why, why must you be so far away from me?? I would come here every weekend if I could! Instead I have the honey drive me. (It's on a short list of things I will drive too.) The prices are great and they really pack the schedule with things to do, see, or listen to!
I love the Stone Fox, and I especially love that it's in my neighborhood! I've visited twice now within a couple of months and look forward to going back again.
Both times I have received excellent, personalized service. They're quick with suggestions and information, as well as explaining the different beers they offer to my husband.
If you're there for happy hour times, be sure to ask for their Small Plates menu, because the flatbread pizza is where it's at! Their homemade chips are pretty much the best, too.
We're not much into the live music scene, so we make sure to visit when we know they are not performing. Our latest visit came during a sound check, and I know for sure that our choice of times to avoid live music was spot on, as you can't hear anything but the music when there. If live music is your thing, then you definitely need to go during those times, because the music we heard sounded great, but we were there to visit with family. The sound check didn't last long, so it worked out well for us.
I hope to visit soon on a weekend for brunch, because I hear that they serve an excellent brunch. They serve chocolate gravy. Can it get any better than that?
For all the hype, I was not impressed.
A small group - seven of us - went for a friend's birthday. The birthday boy summed it up - the place needs less hipness and more service.
It started out well enough. A couple of people had ordered drinks when we arrived, and encouraged us to try the Babs on a Budget. The waiter came back after a few minutes for our order, and my husband tried it. Boring Me had some ginger ale. Drinks took a few more minutes to get there, but came in cute mason jars, and everyone was happy.
20 minutes later, the waiter finally returned. He seemed annoyed that we ALL needed more drinks by that time. He brought them back, and seemed to need reminded that we might want to order food. We were getting hungry by that point, so we indicated that we would get an appetizer, but we would order at the same time. As soon as we mentioned the appetizer, he ran off to put in the order without getting our food orders.
A little while later, the pimento cheese appetizer arrived, delivered by the bartender. Pretty good. A little pricey for something served on saltines, but I guess that's part of the hipness of the dish.The cheese itself was tasty.
We were pretty hungry by the time the waiter returned to get our order. And then we waited and waited for the food. We all kept trying those little tricks you use in a restaurant. "I know when I come back from the bathroom, they'll be bringing the food out."
We had been there more than an hour and a half by the time dinner finally came to our table. There were some apologies muttered in the meantime, but they didn't seem that sincere. Especially since our drink glasses kept getting empty.
And everything was a mess. He didn't seem to know who had ordered what, or what sides came with each person's main dish. The girl to my left got the kale salad instead of the house salad. There was an unclaimed dish of macaroni. The birthday boy's burger arrived, with a promise that the fries would be out soon. And everything was cold as though it had been sitting, waiting to be delivered.
My husband's gumbo was okay. Really more like chili, and a little cold, but there would have been few complaints had it arrived in a timely fashion.
I have to say that my marrakesh kale salad was the highlight of the evening. Good flavor, good texture. Quite nice.
But my burger, my poor burger. I think Elsie would have been disappointed with her "favorite." It was cold and positively squishy where the juices had soaked into the bun. I ordered the BBQ sauce on the side, and it came on the side - and on the burger. I had ordered the burger medium - I know that's always a risk - but as I finished the last couple of bites, I realized that part of the squishiness was meat that hadn't gotten cooked at all. I scooped out some pink paste, closed my eyes and finished the rest.
The Chris Scruggs band lightened the mood at the end of the night with some killer classic country and western swing.
We walked out feeling better. Until we looked up on the back deck to see our server smoking and having a boisterous cell phone conversation. Which explained a lot.
Love this place. Love the atmosphere.
Love that the location is totally random. (Keeps some of the riff raff out.)
The food is great. (Try the bbq nachos for dinner. Chicken & waffles for brunch.)
Drinks are delicious. (Try Babs on a Budget.)
Can't wait to sit outside when it's warm enough.
My one complaint..
THE FOOD PORTIONS ARE SO SMALL.
And I have a small stomach so that's saying alot.
Haven't been for a show yet.
Well it was an early Sunday Dinner for myself, the wifey, my nephew and my passed out asleep son who had dominated the Nashville Zoo for about 3 hours earlier in the day we decided (after already eating Bobbie's Dairy Dip only 4 hours earlier) on the way home to have a nice meal. Â 1st choice was Kien Giang, but for a first time ever, I wasn't really in the mood. Â
So I threw out the suggestion of trying the Stone Fox. Â Of which none of us had tried.
Thankfully (for my sanity sake) it was not very crowded (sleeping toddler in stroller means we might get to enjoy our first damned meal in God knows how long). Â I ordered a Brooklyn Lager that came out in a mason jar (nice touch hipsters, nice touch) and enjoyed my brew while some random music I had no idea of from probably the 70's played in the background.
I ended up ordering the Kimchee Reuben (which was fantastic albeit a little pricey at $12 bucks but worth it) and the Pimento Cheese Hushpuppies (I would skip these, they came out almost burnt, try something else instead, of which I'm sure there are good things on the sides list (my first choice was a kale and quinoa salad though they were out of quinoa so I diverted to hush puppies for some dumb reason)). Â Wife and nephew ordered Elise's favorite burger, that avocado's and other random things on it. Â I tried a bite and very very tasty. Â They asked for it medium though it came out a little over cooked but it was still very good.
I can't wait to go back and try the brunch one day.
"The Stone Cold Fox Jumped Over the Quick Brown Dog" (possibly not the actual name) Â certainly has that family feel. Â The fact that I ordered Elise's favorite FROM Elise may tarnish my Yelputation for honesty, but it was kind of neat.
Overall I can see that this is one of those places where they want you to come and hang out. Â They have a large space for live music, and where else can you go for a Velvet Tom Selleck? Nowhere *I* have ever been!
Parking is no problem, they seem to have plenty of spots for the overall amount of space inside,
Elise's Favorite was quite good, (I assume it is her favorite for this reason) and unique. I'd never had an Avocado on a Burger before.
One complaint of mine is that (I believe) the soda is from cans, and it wasn't very cold. Â But I suspect soft drinks do not represent the bulk of the beverage sales here. Â They have a pretty decent bar, and quite a selection of Beers. I didn't imbibe but none of those that did seemed disappointed.
Its a bit off the beaten path, but I certainly recommend it!
I finally was able to eat at the Stone Fox.
What I mean by that, is that every time I had stopped in before, my visit happened to occur between serving times. I do wish "bar food" options would be available throughout the day, especially because times that I have been declined for food have been awkward, in that servers let me walk around a bit before explaining the schedule. Maybe a sign could help to communicate the set up?
Food was OK, but service was way slow. There wasn't an explanation or check-in; I wish that our server would have offered us refills on beers (or even water), because I would have taken him up on that in a moment. Fried pickles were fine. BBQ nachos were greasier than usual, especially because flour tortillas were used.
I'd be interested in visiting the Stone Fox again, but I'll be sure to triple-check their hours.
Stone Fox: I wanted to like you! I might try coming back for another show, but I'll just order drinks from the bar.
I try not to judge a place from an experience with 1 bad server. However, ours informed us he was leaving so we would have to close out, and did not change us over to another server. This is after he took 20 minutes after we ordered a pitcher and he informed us they were out of PBR drafts so essentially we were SOL.
Uh...couldn't he just have given us over to another server?
When my boyfriend went up to pay at the bar, the bartender was snotty & informed us we would have to chase our server down (God knows where he was at this point; even though he had conveyed quite the sense of urgency that we had to pay RIGHT NOW).
I completely understand wanting to leave at the end of your shift, but that doesn't mean taking the frustrations of the day out on your customers.
Me and my boyfriend visited the Stone Fox on a Sunday around noon. We love trying locally owned restaurants, and we were impressed upon walking in with the cute decor.
The good impression pretty much ended there. When we finally got out waitresses attention I ordered the BBQ omelet with a Bloody Mary and he ordered the chicken and waffles.
The Bloody Mary took about 10 minute to get to us and was mediocre at best. Tasted mostly like pickle juice.
The food took another 15 minutes to find us and judging by the temperature must have been sitting out for awhile. I ate mine because I was starving, but my boyfriend was not as desperate.
His egg and waffle were cold and his (seemingly frozen) chicken was burnt. He ended up just sending it back and not getting anything to replace it. We have been together for 3 years and that is the first time I have ever seen him send food back.
Again, it took forever to get our server's attention for the check and she seemed irritated when I asked her a question about our bill.
We are polite people and we weren't mad because the food was bad. We just expect a certain level of service from a server and this place didn't cut it.
I don't usually write reviews, but we were especially hopeful and then fully disappointed after trying this place. It could have been, and I hope it was, a fluke. But I do not think we will be returning and I would not recommend it to friends.
I've been here twice now for brunch. The place is adorable, servers are friendly, drinks are great, food is pretty good. I just am THIRSTY throughout the entire experience. I feel like it's such a hassle getting a water refill in this place. Usually this doesn't bother me, but during my first visit I realized that when you've eaten a few bites of their super spicy chicken and waffles and realize you won't have any more water for 20 minutes, you start to contemplate putting your face under the bathroom faucet for relief. Luckily my brunchmate let me drink his water too.
My second experience I wised up and went for the classic breakfast plate which was great. Runny eggs, flaky biscuits, sausage and hashbrowns...but no bev refills (coffee or water) for like 20 mins at a time. I think honestly they just need more than 2 servers on weekends. I hate to be so harsh, but seriously, especially for brunch, we need to rehydrate and caffeinate, Stone Fox! I will try you again, but maybe try for a less crowded time.
Look, the Stone Fox is great. We eat here every week. Everything on the menu is tasty, the specials are always good, and the drinks are well-done and well-priced. I've never been to a show here, but it's one of the best bars and restaurants on the west side.
Update: it's a pretty good venue.
Great for brunch! On most Sundays, my girlfriends and I love to make brunch after church but sometimes there is just no time. On those Sundays, we try to find a fun brunch place. I am always on the hunt and was very pleased to find one on the west side of town!
Since we had never been, we wanted to try out a few dishes and share. The waitress thought we ordered a great selection. We had the Laughing Woman, Corned Beef Hash, and French Toast with Pears. The laughing woman has brown rice with sauteed broccoli, squash, cabbage, carrot, onion, mushroom in a savory sauce with eggs. The corned beef hash was so tasty!!! We weren't too full and were curious about their desserts. On the chef's recommendation, we ordered the banana pudding. We liked it very much and only wanted more vanilla wafers! hehe
Great place and I definitely want to go back and listen to all the live music that they have planned. The space is so versatile. The bar looks cool. The eating area is spacious and then the stage area looks fun. I really liked what the did with the space!
I am so in love with the Stone Fox! Â After hearing many good things about this little gem, I went for Sunday brunch a few weeks ago with my boyfriend, and I was immediately charmed by the mismatched vintage decor and furniture. Â So cozy and charming, yet bright and inviting with the big windows and natural lighting. Â We sat in a little nook to the left of the main entrance, and I ordered the breakfast enchilada while my man was adventurous and ordered the waffle of the day: a hamburger, chocolate chip waffle with bacon! Â We also got fancy and ordered mimosas, coffee, and biscuits with pear compote. Â
Let me just say, this was one of the best brunch meals I've ever had. Â My man raved about the waffle and I couldn't get over how delicious the biscuits and compote were; there was seriously so much love and care in the food and you could taste it. The service was super warm and friendly, and after we finished our meal, we sipped coffee on the front porch. Â Our server came out to let us know there was also a nice little back patio, which we checked out as well: super cute with resurrected pallets with plants tucked in as a fence. Â A few days later on a Thursday night, we went back for drinks. Â They have a unique cocktail selection that's on par with the likes of Patterson House and No. 308, as well as a fabulous beer selection. Â Bartenders were awesome and knew their stuff.
Last Sunday we were back again for brunch! Â I had the breakfast platter with veggie sausage and the boo had the pulled pork omelette: again, everything was delicious. Â This time, we sat on the cute back patio and drank our coffee (Drew's Brews!) and smoked our morning cigs. Â I have yet to actually take in a show at the Stone Fox, but it's something I'm anticipating in the near future!
I love that this place exists outside of the "hip" parts of Nashville (namely East Nash), and is the epicenter of a burgeoning area. Â I'm glad that the Stone Fox seems to be doing well and getting a lot of attention for being rather new, and I'm even happier to be taking part of it! Â I wish the best of luck to this place!
The Stone Fox is a great testament to the argument that the Charlotte Ave / Nashville West area is really growing. In a good way.
It's pretty big, but doesn't feel it. The back porch is fantastic and cozy. The bartenders are nice. The beer selection is good. The prices are fair.
They have a great stage and a pretty sizeable room for music, but there's a separate area to the left of the bar room if you want to get away.
I've only been here a few times, and I haven't eaten yet, but I'm sure neither of these statements will be true for long.
Good food, great beer and a 3D dog!
Tucked away in a up and coming part of town the Stone Fox is a great place for a burger, band, beer or brunch.
The atmosphere is eclectic and fun. Found art and new art hang side by side and give you lots to look at as you sip draft Calfkiller beer ( keep an eye out for the 3D dog... I was drawn to it like a moth to flame...mesmerizing ). As if the inside wasn't enough there is a front porch to hang out southern style or you can wander out back to relax in the back porch area with tables and sitting areas.
Food- great burger and fries to wash down with a good beer or mixed drink. But when the weekend rolls around the brunch is great! We had the french toast casserole and the steak biscuits with au jus. Both were very good! It was a lot of food we shared and there was enough to feed a third person.
Go. See the 3D dog. Have a drink. Check out a local band. Enjoy!
Just checked this place out two nights in a row after kind of stalking it on the interwebs for the past couple of weeks. This definitely has the risk of becoming that hot 'new place' that people feel compelled to check out (as I did yesterday and the day before). And rightfully so. The minute you step foot onto the cozy front porch lit up with a garland of warm lights, you'll feel like you accidentally crossed the border into some hip, new place in East Nashville. (But then the flickering lights from a couple of cop cars perusing the neighborhood will remind you that you're really just north of Charlotte.)
PROS: The menu is what I'd probably describe as eclectic pub grub, so points for originality. The burger is delish. I believe the chubby grass-fed beef patty is hand-patted with love and it comes on a nice soft, sugary bun with a slice of Kenny's Farmhouse cheese and the standard assortment of burger enhancements. And you can get that with a side of kale and qinoa which also deserves a shout-out. And don't forget to kick off the night with some hot chicken bites. The kimchee reuben is supposedly the most popular item on the menu--a novel idea and a pretty good, respectable attempt in gangnam-erican cuisine, but could use a tad more gangnam. Lastly, can't talk about this bar/restaurant joint mentioning something about the bar part: The beer selection is perfectly sized and varied AND beer on tap is served in mason jars (*extra points!*).
Cons: The Laughing Man and BBQ nachos could use a little more work in the flavor department...but what this place may lack in food, it makes up big time in atmosphere.
This is the place to go if you're looking to hang out somewhere that is way cooler than your house, but just as comfortable, if not more so. The decor is a mix of stuff dug out your grandma's attic and your friend's avant garde art installation. Plus, there is a taxidermy fox displayed in circular window above the front porch (*mega extra points!*). Need I say more?
This spot may be my new hang...
You know when you walk into an establishment and instantly feel comfy? I rarely possess that feeling but when I walked into The Stone Fox, I knew that this was going to be the beginning of many nights to come.
Besides boasting  a small front patio, there is also a fairly spacious back patio that feels as if you are hanging out at a friend's house for small gathering. The vintage furniture and fence matches the house that hosts a full kitchen that prides itself in organic and sustainable practices (Marrakesh Express Salad is vegan!), stage for the fun live music, and a delightful bar that happens to also be stocked with Bang Candy Company's simple syrups too.
Drinks are very reasonably priced with bottles of beer beginning at $2.50, house wine at $5.00, and Macallan 12 Year Scotch maxing out at $14 for a 2oz pour.
The official grand opening party is this Saturday at 10pm with a dance party and a low $5 cover. I'll likely pop by for some mischief. Will you?
