Proven Pizzeria

This was a moving house day moment. House in disarray, tired, emotional and the kitchen looking like a car boot sale (so was the rest of the house). So we toddled into Stone from Meaford thinking where to go for quick, quiet and not a mad hpuse. I remembered this place after we had picked up the new house keys. It was just perfect, very good and attentive service, the pizza was really tasty. My Italian friend says 'you are not permitted pizza outside of Italy' sometimes i disobey. We both liked our choice of food and drink. Its on our list for a return and bringing friends.

Excellent pizzeria. Attentive staff and great food make this worth visiting. We were there early in the evening and it was quite, but I can see it getting busy later on so, I'd seriously consider booking if you want to make sure of a table. Pro tip: be careful if you park outside the front door. The two ladies on the next table to us had done so and had a van collide with their car whilst it was reverse parking followed by the driver 'legging it'. Fortunately no damage was actually done as it was at low speed and the car had a rubber protector strip on the bumper. The (pay and display) car parks in the town are only 5 minutes' walk away and, whilst I understand the aversion to paying for parking, they do have CCTV so it may be worth considering.

Had dinner there last night with friends and the food was delicious- especially the antipasti platter. They were super accommodating of all our requirements. My vegan friend couldn’t stop raving about the cheesy garlic bread so it was a hit all around! We were the last to leave and at no point did we feel rushed, which was a nice touch to a great evening.

The pizzas and cheesy garlic bread are incredible, we just stopped by on a drive as it looked promising and I was pleasantly surprised with the best pizza I've eaten in a long time. The Cesar salad was delicious too, usually I find people skimp on the chicken and parmesan on a Cesar salad, but not here! Happened to get in here early on their evening service so shot some beautiful photos of the interior. I'll definitely be back. The staff were very attentive and friendly. Couldn't recommend this place enough if you're local to the area or hust passing through, you won't be disappointed.

Amazing pizza, great cosy restaurant. Fab service. Food was excellent. Loved the chorizo and potato starter and the garlic mushrooms. Pizza dough was yummy. Best pizzas we've had in a long time. Loved the apple crumble too - apples cooked nice and soft and crunchy crumble. Walked past so many times and never tried it. Now wish we had gone in sooner! 3 courses cost £38 each including wine and tip. Best restaurant in Stone by a mile!
