A gem of a spot. Everything was very clearly made from scratch & so incredibly delicious. Definitely save room for the cobbler, you won't regret it. Adam was an excellent server & gave such good recommendations. The ambience is cozy & inviting, thanks to the decor & piano player. 10/10 would recommend.

Stopped here for lunch & was blown away. The prix fixe menu was amazing value - would highly recommend. The food was all hearty & delicious - as one would expect. The dill pickle soup was a fun surprise & the menu debutant & stroganoff were both top notch picks. My highlight was dessert - the peach crumble with fresh cream was absolutely amazing.

The real special thing here is the ambiance though. The dim lights, wooden benches, & the pianist playing really elevated the experience. Everyone moving through the space was absolutely struck by how great it was. Make sure to bring some cash to tip them!

Nous sommes allés au Stash Café pour célébrer un anniversaire. L'ambiance est vraiment superbe, avec un pianiste qui joue extrêmement bien & apporte une touche chaleureuse & intimiste que nous avons beaucoup appréciée.
Côté cuisine, les plats sont bons & il y a pas mal de choix pour tous les goûts. Nous avons commencé avec une soupe à la betterave, puis pris en plat le'débutant', qui permet de goûter à un panaché de spécialités, une très bonne idée pour découvrir plusieurs saveurs en une seule assiette. & pour finir, une crêpe polonaise juste incroyablement bonne.
Petit plus très apprécié : si vous le mentionnez, ils ajoutent une bougie sur le dessert de la personne qui fête son anniversaire, & le pianiste joue la chanson, un moment vraiment spécial !
Nous avons adoré l'ambiance intime & l'expérience globale. Nous recommandons vivement 👍
