The merits of a home-cooked meal depend heavily on whose home you happen to be in – if your host’s nightly menu is composed of what’s about to expire in the fridge, you might want to take your appetite elsewhere. Enjoy quality home-style fare with no mess and no “surprise†ingredients with today’s WagJag: for $10, you get $20 to spend at the Stone Crock in historic St. Jacobs.
Warm and inviting, the Stone Crock smothers hunger under a blanket of comforting fare. Weekday breakfasts start the day off right, and at lunch, select from a range of salad, burger, and sandwich options a la carte, or hit up the one-stop-shop of the lunch buffet. When dinnertime rolls around, a la carte meals like roast Ontario turkey with stuffing, buttermilk battered chicken, or meatloaf dinner with vegetables, mashed potatoes and gravy provide the rib-sticking fortifications needed to venture out into the post-dinner cold. Indecisive diners can opt for the dinner buffet  with salad bar, country soups, and an array of entrées and local vegetables – plus Stone Crock’s famous pies and baked goods. On weekends, the Saturday buffet breakfast ($9.99) provides fuel for a day of antiquing, as does Sunday’s full brunch spread ($17.99; reservations recommended), including omelet and waffle bars, carving stations, sides, and pastries.
For hungry patrons on the go (or cooking-challenged patrons with hungry families to feed) the Stone Crock’s famous potato salad, as well as other salads, party trays and entrees are available to take out. They also provide catering for occasions big and not-big, including experienced serving staff.
