Review Summary

Stash Café is described as a warm, cozy Polish spot in Old Montreal with dim lighting, red lanterns, and live piano that add to the intimate vibe. The menu features traditional Polish comfort dishes such as pierogies, cabbage rolls, kielbasa, schnitzel, golabki, and beet soups, with a table dote option to help guests sample a range of flavors. Dishes are noted as hearty, flavorful, and comforting, with pierogies and potato pancakes often highlighted as favorites and peach cobbler or apple cobbler among the memorable desserts. The atmosphere receives frequent praise for hospitality and a vibe that feels like home, making it suitable for casual evenings, family meals, or romantic nights; reservations are often recommended because the restaurant is popular and can get busy with live music. Service is described as friendly and attentive, though some visits experience slower pacing due to understaffing or kitchen delays, occasionally with billing hiccups. Overall Stash Café is viewed as a top destination for authentic Polish cuisine in Montreal, delivering strong value, consistent quality, and a warm inviting ambiance that keeps guests returning.

The first time we visited we got vodka & pickle as a gift! Since then every time we visit there is great food, service, & a calming red noire atmosphere! Highly recommend if you're in Old Montreal

Une excellente expérience - pas juste par la bonne bouffe, mais l'expérience au complet. La musique piano, live, au fond a créé une ambiance chaleureuse & accueillante. J'y retournerai.

I was so impressed with this restaurant during a visit on a Friday for lunch (only day M-F that they serve lunch). I had visited Poland earlier this year & really enjoyed the pierogis & other items. This cozy restaurant was so true to Polish cuisine that I'll return in March when I visit Montreal next. I overdid it in order to try pierogis (they have a mixed platter of 4 total with each filling represented), golubki (stuffed cabbage), dessert, an excellent rioja, & finally a shot of vodka. The pianist was a fantastic touch for lunch. Don't let my spend scare you. I had everything & 3 glasses of wine. You could probably get out for less per person.

Between two people we ordered a rye soup, pierogi plate, kielbasa, plus a peach cobbler for dessert. All were excellent though the cobbler was the most memorable!

It was a well-rounded, tasty meal that was surprisingly light. The ambiance is well thought out too; it's dark inside & lit by red lampshades. Will go back again!

L'atmosphère est chaleureuse. Le menu comporte une sélection de mets traditionnels qui semblent authentiques. La table d'hôte est une bonne façon de découvrir le menu & reste abordable. Le repas est rassasiant.

This is a busy restaurant but they do take reservations. I would recommend that you make one. Delish food, amazing atmosphere, the wait for food was not long. However, our server never once asked if we wanted another drink & did not refill our water. Otherwise an excellent experience.

Perfect amount of fancy - exceptional place to have the best polish food in town without breaking the bank. Live music is a pure cherry on top 🍒

We arrived at 1:10 PM for lunch & were seated at 1:30 PM, which is not really a problem. However, unfortunately, we received the bill at 5 PM.

In more detail, an hour went by after our order was taken before our appetizers arrived, another hour for our mains, & another hour for dessert. The food was delicious but needing to wait nearly 4 hours for lunch (all the food was ordered promptly by 1:30 PM) is insanity.

For the prices being charged, the slowness of the service was unacceptable. The waiters were polite & largely this is the fault of the kitchen. Some kind of comping given the circumstances would have been appreciated, but hey...

Definitely add this to your list. The ambience was quite cozy & romantic. They had a pianist playing music & it was a the right level. We tried the mixed perogis, crepe, & the potato pancake. The food was absolutely delicious & we will definitely be coming back.
