Stone's Throw


Stone's Throw 

-------------------------------------------

As soon as we walked into Stone's, we knew  that we found our new spot for cocktails in the Montrose area. This new Montrose neighborhood bar is exactly what the famous Westheimer drinkery curve was missing. 


When we walked in, we felt in love with the high energy and the dark architecture the bar offers with its chandeliers, high ceilings, dark wood, black booths and its iron works all over the bar. With only a few weeks open this place gets packed on a weekend. Even though this bar  offers plenty of seats downstairs and upstairs, by 10:00 pm, all the seats and booths were taken already. Fortunately, we were lucky enough to get a table upstairs which was more than perfect because we could see the entire bar from our spot. 


The ambience was amazing. It gets a little bit loud because of the crowd, but if it bothers you, they have a small patio with several tables outside. 


Even though we loved this bar as soon as we walked in, we though that we would have to wait so long for our drinks, but we did not. The three times we went to the bar for drinks, we did not wait longer than 5 minutes to be served. 


If you have not visited Stone's Throw yet, we highly recommend you to stop by this new neighborhood bar and try their fascinating cocktails.

Ginger Roger's

gin, ginger liqueur, lime juice, agave nectar, mint, house made ginger beer

-------------------------------------------

This drink only needs 3 words to be described... Fresh, delightful & divine. If you are into Gin, you definetely have to try one of this Ginger Roger's at Stone's Throw. 

The freshness and the acidity of this drink went flawlessly with the Gin.

Drink: 5/5

Santa Poca

resposado tequila, aperol, hibiscus liqueur, lime juice, agave nectar

-------------------------------------------

When we asked the bartender which cocktail was the most popular, he recommended us Santo Poca. We said Yes! 


The Santo Poca was so good and delicious that we ordered it twice. Because drinks based on tequila are difficult to enjoy, we though we would not like it, but this drink was our Fav. We will definitely order it again on our next visits...


We totally recommend you to have and enjoy this amazing mix of tequila and the aperitif Aperol at Stone's Throw

Drink: 5/5
