Food Review: All boxes ticked at The Wayfarer, Stone
After a lovely morning’s work doing some seasonally-appropriate pumpkin picking with the little ‘un, her mum and I decided that a nice lunchtime treat was very much in order.
Red-blooded to the last, I had a craving for a decent cheeseburger, and I had an inkling as to where I might find one.
Run by the Parogon group, The Wayfarer in Stone has been one of the town’s proud bastions of strong, contemporary cuisine for some time.
Priding itself on a menu that offers a mixture of Asian-inspired dishes and Western flare, the restaurant caters to a range of tastes, and on previous visits I had been impressed by the number of boxes it had ticked. Though, with a particular thirst to quench, would The Wayfarer come up with the hearty goods I was craving?
On approach to the restaurant, the little ‘un had an unfortunate ‘accident’, and I only mention this because the front of house team at The Wayfarer were particularly outstanding and helpful with this.
A discreet and charming maître d’ made this somewhat stressful experience a lot less so, and as such deserves applause and a very heartfelt thank you. We were quickly able to get back on with the business of some relaxing tucker.
The decor at The Wayfarer is stylish and trendy, yet also warm and welcoming, and makes for a fabulous environment to dine in. Settled in at our table, replete with high chair for Little Miss Morris, we got cosy and perused the menu.
