For me, the best part about Stone Mad Pub are all the unique touches to the restaurant. The stone garden outdoors, the colored glass, the brick parking lot, the restroom mural... it's all there. Oh and don't forget all the ways to drink Guinness - Black & Tan, Black Velvet, you name it. I'm not a huge Irish food fan, so I don't feel qualified to give it two thumbs up or not. Seemed good to me. Staff were certainly attentive to ensure we were doing a-o-k. Some time I'd like to return to play bocce and/or hang outside on the stone patio in front of their outdoor fireplace. read more

We were there on a Sunday evening. Absolutely great place. The atmosphere was wonderful and piano man was a nice surprise. The servers were very attentive to all customers and the food was over the top. Would love to visit when it's warmer to sit out in the stone seating area. read more

Food and drink were very good, staff was accommodating and friendly. Plenty of room for a large group.

Wow. We talked about going to Stone Mad for their Irish Breakfast for years and finally made it last weekend. It was amazing. The puddings and bangers were smooth. Toast, beans and grilled tomato were delicious. They cook the eggs the way you order. I paired my breakfast with a mimosa. It was definitely hardy so be sure to go hungry for this one! Service was wonderful at the bar. read more

Go couple times a year, one of our favorites, last night 12/27/25 was awful. Sat in oak room in front of side door that was opened and closed the whole night, had to wear my coat. Also no fire?? big part of making reservation in the oak room. Now the food, they changed the muscles recipe completely? gone is the creamy delicious broth and now just warm water and a dash of garlic? Brisket sandwich with everything and fries came out stone cold. I told the "manager" and our server nothing was done, the disappointing thing neither even apologized let alone offered to do anything about. Really sad evening, times change! read more

Food and service was great but most of all Angie's customer service. If every trip there is like this, we'll be sure to continue coming back and bring some friendlies with us. Can't wait until next time, thanks for making our night! read more

It's a unique/ friendly place with that neighborhood tavern feel. Food and service is always excellent. Went for one of the clambake dinners and not disappointed. read more

The food at Stone Mad Pub is fabulous. Had a black and blue burger, skipped the slaw but had the home fries. Yummy yummy. Even the coffee is delicious. Our server was very helpful and was spot on in recommending the home fries. The restaurant is old but has a great fireplace. read more

Amazing place! Truly a remarkable building with an eclectic menu that is priced reasonably. Highly recommend

We went to Stone mad a few months ago. We started with the chicken paprikas dip and it was so good. The flavors were amazing and it came with a pretzel to dip with, hello! Genius. I got the Sheppard pie, which I normally wouldn't order from a restaurant, but this just looked so good. It was as beautiful as it was delicious.. husband got the brisket sandwich that came with basically breakfast hash browns which was a nice comfort, touch. And the sauces that came with it really cut the sandwich flavors well. We found stone mad because it's across from a popular pizza place. The front is a bar, but when you walk through to the back it's a cute, cozy restaurant space with some obvious regulars and newcomers like us. Service was great, food was wonderful, would recommend. read more

If you are on the west side, you have stop by! The outside was simply beautiful. I have never seen a restaurant that literally used stone for Everything! I only ordered takeout, but I wish I had time to enjoy the stone outdoor seating. The turkey club sandwich was huge! I was able to share it with my sister. I was also able to substitute the coleslaw for the spuds. They were absolutely delicious and filling. The restaurant did not skip on the toppings, which is what I loved. I definitely will come back to visit this place. Hopefully I will be able to get a seat outside. read more

This is a great bar that serves food and has a bocce ball court. Its home-style cuisine fits the vibe. It definitely has an old school ambiance and it's worth checking out for the stonework, woodwork, tiles and windows. All in all, it's a pretty cool place! read more

The place is very cool, the tiling in the basement and the stained glass windows and the nice warm fireplace. But the service was awful. We had a server named Bobby and she got our order wrong multiple times. We drove over an hour to get there for the brisket and they were out. They should post on their website when they are out of the main dish people go there for. We settled for burgers and the burgers were so raw we couldn't eat them. At that point we just wanted to get out of there so we took our food home and fired up the grill and re-cooked everything. We had also gone there for my dad's birthday, and after the 10 different mistakes they made on our orders and our drinks we thought they were at least going to take a little bit of money off of the bill but that didn't happen. Very disappointed. We will probably go back because I believe in giving places a second chance, but we will make sure that we have a different waiter and we will be calling ahead about the brisket read more

I really wanted to like this place more. The beer selection is excellent. The staff was friendly and professional. I got a strip steak special with mushrooms sauce. The price was good and the sauce was great. If not for the toughness of the steak it would be amazing. It was cooked well though and I appreciate that. I'd definitely visit again if I was in the area read more

We live right across the street from here and it's great! Love getting their chicken pot pie on Wednesdays during the winter. The service is always great even when there's a crowd. The patio is very unique and a great spot to have a cold beer in the summer. St. Patrick's day here is also always a blast. Love living near here! read more

Yummy food and great ambiance! I will be back! Wine was great, and that's often not the case at a pub. Til next time!

We went on a hot day and sat outside. We loved the stone patio! Great variety of food and drinks. Service was just as amazing. read more

Didn't get food here but a cute vibe to grab a drink here during summer. Across the streeet from il rione if waiting on pizza.

Atmosphere: Bomb! Food: Good! Good for groups: Excellent! Price: Slightly Expensive Overall: Great place! Go, go, go! Atmosphere: Stone Mad Pub is a wonderful place to take a date or to go with a group of friends. When you first walk in,, you are invited to an open floor/stand up bar which was being used for a large party of about 25 people. The next room is one of the main seating areas, very dark but also had a fireplace to help light the room. The atmosphere was much more rustic than I expected, but I enjoyed it! The back room is much brighter with large windows to illuminate the room with natural light. This is also the room where they have a bocce court which is really fun! (The court is a little too fast for the balls used but makes it for a fun/competitive experience.) Food: I went with a group and we started off with the Chicken Paprikash Dip as a starter. Fantastic! Packed with flavor and similar to buffalo chicken dip. I ordered the Irish Burger since the Stone Mad Burger was so expensive to add all of the additional. It had a huge patty and fresh ingredients but I was shocked at how tasteless the beef was. It was still good, but almost tasted like there was absolutely no seasoning or marinade put in it. The Stone Mad Fries needed a little more salt but that was an easy fix. My date ordered the four cheese pizza and had the same feedback. Good, but seemed like it was missing something. Overall: I had a blast. The place sparked great conversation and the beer list was really good. Not to mention the Stone Patio and Bocce court that would make this place a must try during the spring/summer. I will definitely be back again! read more

We are visiting from NYC and Indiana. We were googling places to eat and came across this place. We got there and the atmosphere was wonderful. The food was great. Salmon Caesar, Margarita pizza, Pub spuds...all delicious. The service was excellent. Our server was Bobbi. She took great care of us and checked regularly. The manager came to talk to us and he was kind as well. We totally recommend this place!! read more

An eclectic mix of food at this Irish Gastropub. Menu ranges from some traditional Irish dishes to comfort food like meatloaf, burgers, steaks and even a few Italian items. We came as a large group and they accommodated us with a large table in the back dining room. The table shared a bunch of appetizers such as brussel sprouts, baked brie with toast points and chicken paprikash dip. It was a weeknight, so several of us had their daily special...a meatball sub served with a side salad. The sub was hearty but the sauce lacked depth. It was served on a nicely toasted hoagie-style roll. Salad was substantial. This is a decent spot for a stop before a movie or coming back from the beach. read more

This review is based solely on my personal customer service experience. I called ahead to let the Pub know I was planning to stop by with my social group on Sunday, July 2nd about Noon. The person that answered the phone initially, couldn't help and had the manager call back. Manager calls and says "We will not serve you, even in small groups, it is unfair to everyone else. I can't help you" and hung up. read more

Highly recommend this restaurant & pub near Gordon Square! Right when you walk in, there's such a cool vibe that feels like you're not in Ohio anymore. The building is huge which is great when it's a busy night - we were seated immediately on a Friday night for dinner! We started with the chicken paprikash dip that came with a soft pretzel and it was INCREDIBLE. The Caesar salad and margarita pizza were awesome as well. The staff was super helpful and quick even though it was a crowded night. I'll definitely be back soon! read more

A bawdy local pub in all the right ways. Stroll in on your own or drag the office down with you - doesn't matter as you'll leave with friends. Bartenders take it serious here, hence the white shirt and ties. Plenty of room in the back to order from their full menu of upscale pub grub (come on the weekends for breakfast). They pour a proper Guinness, but options abound if you're not into the black stuff - on draft or try their extensive bottle collection read more

Paprikash is on point. Pizza is good too. Outdoor stone fire is fun. Would be a nice place to have beers outside.

Stone Mad is the one of my favorite places in Cleveland. The pub is a great place to visit at anytime, whether it is a night out, or a casual Saturday/Sunday afternoon, you are welcomed to an friendly environment with an engaging staff. The food is excellent and moderately priced. The apps are perfect for bar snacks with friends, or bring your family and enjoy the great entrees. If you were going to try anything at the bar, I highly recommend getting a Guinness, as its probably the best place to get one in the city. read more

I'll say it once & say it again - Stone Mad is GORGEOUS! Absolutely stunning both inside & out (trust me - visit the bathrooms because they are beautiful). If you're going here for more than just drinks you're doing it wrong. Honestly the food isnt great - it's more like 2 stars. I absolutely freaking love stone mad & come here all the time in the summer & when I'm in the area. The staff is super friendly & helpful but i never like my food (the mussels we're 3 stars tho). The only reason i'm giving stone mad 4 stars is again my recent experience was so pleasant & i had so much fun i didnt even care that my food was just fine. I truly believe dining is an experience so if the food is tolerable & staff is nice & the location is great I will factor all that in - hence my 4 star review. read more

Sit at the bar if you go, we've never had a bad experience with the bartenders. Patio service disappointing. You would think that on a nice day the service would be great. Drinks made wrong and a To go small pizza waited over an hour and the sever on her phone. She just didn't care. Once we got home the extra toppings we paid for were not there and the pizza was average at best. read more

Yep, food and service are great but the winner here for me is the ambiance. The bar and the dining rooms along with the awesome outdoor area makes the visit feel like multiple experiences. read more

A little weird for out of towns. Food was good. Looked like a lot of regulars. We went early during the day. Felt a little unwelcome. We left after one beer. Bar was not the right place to sit read more

I have enjoyed Stone Mad each time we've visited. The Bartender's are on point! Cocktails are well made and the beers are properly served. First time diner and I will be back! The mac and cheese was fantastic! My husbands brisket was the best he's had, and the pizza......our friends are now begging us to return. Don't even get me started on the cool ladies rooms! I'll come back just to fawn over those. read more

Awesome building and very reminiscent of pubs in Ireland!! The menu has a couple interesting items, but on this particular afternoon, we came in and nothing struck us. So we ordered drinks. Sitting in the "dining room" .... seven tables, we took one, and a couple was already at another. There was NO ONE else eating. It is a dead Saturday afternoon here. Even the bar had 3 people in it watching the Ohio State game. Dead. When we just ordered drinks, our server completely bitched us out about sitting in the dining room and NOT ordering food!!! She then went on to rudely explain we were not allowed to take our drinks out to the patio. Wtf!?! She was lucky we even walked in!! I wouldn't walk in this place again because of the disgusting service. Two stars because the drinks were not screwed up. read more

Have gone several times previous to tonight. Unfortunately tonite ordered two burgers , medium - they came to table - after very extended wait (40+ minutes)- well done and luke warm to cold and sides also cold . Husband sent his back and that was another long wait - he just cancelled order and we left and still never saw his burger. They did give us an adjusted bill, which was reasonable. Hope they get their act together- this was a Wednesday- not the weekend!! Won't be back again . read more

I came here for a private celebration of life of a dear friend. Beautiful property... lovely decor! As authentic as it gets! Most importantly the staff was SUPER accommodating and lovely. Thank you so very much for everything! Keep doing what you are doing! I will definitely come by for dinner- the daily menu and specials look amazing! read more

I fell in love with the concept of this pub from thousands of miles away, so I guess you can say we got pretty serious rather quickly. I was tasked with the glorious planning of a best friend and future husband's wedding shower antics for a nice sized group of 20 peeps who wanted to have some drinks and be merry - who can blame 'em? Being that I lived in Albuquerque at the time and had only a month or so before coming back to Cleveland for the winter break, I did what any strong elder millennial would do, and hit the Google hard. Tireless evenings were spent searching for the perfect location that screamed intimate yet exciting, fun but important, classy but still, not that serious. At long last Yelpers (by golly we're so lucky to use Yelp the way we do now) I stumbled across an adorable looking pub that just so happened to also have bocce ball, one of my friends and I's favorite pastime. Fate was looking out and/or Googs had my back - something like that. Everyone was super friendly and the staff was on point with our reservation, making sure the tables were set up properly, well decorated, that we had the entire bocce ball court to ourselves... it was honestly so perfect for our group and I couldn't have been any happier! In addition, the food and cocktails were delish and not a single belly went unhappy. As an updated portion to this review, I also recently revisited the pub since I've moved back home to CLE and you guys - the Happy Hour deals are on POINT. The fantastic bocce ball court still exists. The exterior ambiance is gorgeous with the wood and bricks everywhere, creating a garden-like vibe while you dine. I love this place!!! Nothing better than combining an old timey great feeling vibe with the modern deliciousness of fantastic cuisine. read more

this will be my last review. again i have been a customer since 2008. one of the draws was the spectacular wedge salad which disappeared from the menu years ago. however the 12 ounce burger which was unique to stone mad and brisket were still a huge draw. now stone mad has dumped the unique 12 ounce burger for a standard unremarkable 8 ounce burger how boringand i was there two weeks ago and ordered the brisket and it was average and tough. . my spouse ordered the salmon blt it came with no bacon!!! and the sauce was not the same. stone mad has always been a great place to enjoy a good beer but the food has taken a deep dive. so we will get good beer elsewhere at an establishment where the food has not been compromised. what a slap in the face to the creators of this beautiful pub and eatery. truly breaks my heart my hats off to pete leneghan and eileen sammon who spent 4 years prior to opening stone mad converting the 10@ year old tavern to an amazing bar and restaurant. from what i understand eileen is no longer the owner and if pete were still here he wouldn't let this happen. read more

Went here on a Sunday day night not sure what to expect. Was instantly warmed by the fireplace, live music and friendly staff I ordered the Sunday night special (sphagetti and meatballs) and it was delicious!

Good food. Amazing ambiance! We still are not sure why an ordered bottle of Prosecco was left on our table by an outdoor server for US to open. We managed, but really not our job. That sort of negated the experience a bit but still would recommend. Sit outside if weather permits. Beautiful!!! read more
