“ Great lunch when driving through town. Friendly atmosphere and attentive service! A drink menu would be great to have - you can see the taps and tap list and then some non-beer options are written on the blackboard behind the bar but no descriptions or prices given. ”
“ Nick was great as always - making great recommendations and being attentive. The food is incredible. The Michaladas are on point. The atmosphere is welcoming and cozy. Great for dates and family gatherings. They have beers on tap & carry seasonal beers as well. ”
“ What a lovely establishment!!! Thierry staff is so friendly and very helpful. Their food is outstanding! They are located across the street from Film Alley so it would make the perfect date night (Dinner then a Show.) My one complaint is that I didn't come sooner. ”
“ Came in for a bite to eat before going to the comedy show at film ally across the street. Stem and Stone has a good selection of beer and cocktails. I had one of the brews which came out nice and cold. We started off with the cheese curds which were crispy and delicious. For my meal I had the Philly cheese steak that was also really enjoyable. My wife got the chicken pesto sandwich and she loved it. Will come back to enjoy another meal here. ”
“ Great restaurant! We came here for Mother’s Day and we had a great experience overall. The restaurant is super cute, the staff is friendly and every dish we ordered was excellent. I think we have a new favorite restaurant in Bastrop. ”
“ Great local eatery, we'll be back. I gave 5 stars because the overall experience was great but the burgers were not cooked medium as advertised and for 16 plus extra for bacon it should be perfect. ”
“ First off: Veteran Parking. Thank you! Second, the burgers are amazing! Going to be a 'must stop' on all my trips between Houston and Austin now! ”
“ Great place. Burger is one of the best I have had in a while. Other sandwiches were great and the salad was very fresh. Service was great and the prices were fair. ”
