Thanks to playoff games, the Stoneleigh P is already attracting a younger, sports-loving customer.
The pool table moved from the Stoneleigh P on Maple Avenue to its new address on Dallas' Lemmon Avenue. "It had to," owner Laura Garrison said.“We’re so happy to be here,” Laura Garrison over lunch in the new restaurant.
In 1996 at the Stoneleigh P, The News photographed the team behind the debut film 'Bottle Rocket' at one of their favorite hangouts. From left are Owen Wilson, Andrew Wilson, director Wes Anderson and Luke Wilson.When the lease was up last year, the Garrisons weren’t able to strike a new deal. Landlord Bob Woody, who owns bars and restaurants in Austin, has new plans for the old Stoneleigh P property, and it became clear the Garrisons would need to move on.
Everything from the old restaurant needed a deep clean. “We had two leaf blowers going,” Laura said, describing the serious dust-up as they moved. “It was gnarly.”The menu is exactly the same. And I don’t mean the the plates coming out of the kitchen look the same and are made by the same cooks, although those things are also true. I mean theRegulars’ favorites — the enchiladas, the burger and the chicken sandwich, three classics — are still here.
Notice the size of the bar at the new Stoneleigh P: More than twice as many customers can sit here, compared to the Maple Avenue original.Tom, a fixture at the old bar, is getting used to the new place. “He doesn’t know where to stand yet,” his daughter said. It’s a sweet conundrum, as he stood behind the same bar, in the same place, for 51 years., where topless guys wearing skimpy shorts served bar food. If the Stoneleigh had to move, at least it was to an address with some character.
