About Apricot Stone
The Spotlight on Apricot Stone

Mediterranean Flavor Just Minutes from the Music

Apricot Stone is a cozy, family-run Mediterranean restaurant located in the lively Northern Liberties neighborhood of Philadelphia. Just a short walk or quick ride from some of the city’s best live music venues, this casual spot offers a warm atmosphere, flavorful Armenian and Mediterranean dishes, and a charming local vibe. Known for its fresh ingredients and welcoming service, Apricot Stone is a hidden gem that feels both authentic and approachable.

Why Concert-goers love it

Its location near popular venues like The Fillmore and Union Transfer makes it a favorite pit stop before a big night out. With friendly, efficient service and a laid-back vibe, it’s easy to get in and out without feeling rushed. The food comes out quickly but doesn’t sacrifice quality—perfect when you're on a schedule. The rustic-chic setting is relaxed enough for pre-show energy but still intimate for quieter conversations.

Who this Restaurant is great for

  • Groups of friends looking to share mezze and wine before the show
  • Solo travelers who want a friendly, neighborhood feel
  • Couples seeking a romantic but low-key dinner
  • Fans wanting a lively, pre-concert bite
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want great quality food

What People Say

Guests rave about the authentic flavors, especially the lamb dishes, hummus, and signature apricot chicken. The attentive staff and cozy ambiance get frequent praise, as does the well-priced wine list. Many reviewers call it a “hidden gem” and recommend it as a go-to for a relaxed and delicious meal before a show.

Areas for Improvement

It’s a smaller space, so it can fill up quickly on busy nights—reservations are a good idea. Also, while the vibe is warm and charming, it’s not the spot if you’re looking for high-end decor or an extensive cocktail list.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers craving fresh Mediterranean food in a friendly, relaxed setting just minutes from Philly’s top music venues, Apricot Stone hits the right note.
