The place had an authentic European feel. It was my first experience with Polish dining & it was memorable! The perogies, potato pancakes, pickled herring & croquettes (three course meal) were excellent. The apple cobbler & sweet cream were a pleasant surprise. The accordion dinner accompaniment was enjoyable, adding to the atmosphere.
Service was reasonably quick considering how packed the place was. Washrooms were clean. I would return to this charming welcoming establishment.View more

Delicious food! My husband & I had a lovely dinner here & enjoyed the live music. There was a gluten free option for the kotlet, which was great!View more

Food was very good, we made a reservation & got a good spot. We did order vegetarian though & they forgot to mark it as such & brought half meat out. They were very apologetic but you will want to confirm they write it down.View more

Definitely one of our favorite Montreal restaurants now. My wife & I did some research before we return this year & found many recommendations for Stash & we were not disappointed.
We didn't make reservations, but thankfully it was a weeknight & we were able to get in. Love the piano player for the added ambience.
We tried a little bit of almost everything & everything was perfect. This will definitely be a highlight to our trips in the future to Montreal & we recommend anyone trying it out.
Side note: We went to another restaurant a few days later & during a conversation with the chef there they recommended it as their favorite restaurant in Montreal before we even mentioned we had been there.View more

Definitely one of my favorite places in Montreal! The ambiance & decor is vintage chic - which is so nice! &, I love how there's live piano.
The food is exquisite & at a decent price. I was blown away by the stroganoff & the sledz. The drinks are also great!View more

Such a lovely dining experience with authentic Polish cuisine! My hubby & I walked in w/o a reservation on a Saturday evening in March at 8:30pm. Despite still being full, we were seated right away at a cozy window table. Upon walking in, you are greeted with wonderful live music from a very talented piano player right at the entrance. The restaurant is warm & cozy with a red light district vibe with the red lampshades on all the lights. Lovely beamed ceilings & church pew bench seats with a long bar on the side. Our waitress was great, professional, & courteous. We ordered perogies, schnitzel, among other Polish dishes, & yummy cocktails. We thoroughly enjoyed each dish & the entire evening. We loved the perogies so much that instead of ordering dessert, we ordered another 8 mushroom perogies to go! I HIGHLY recommend for some authentic Polish cuisine!View more

I had a great time at Stash Café on Saturday, April 5th, celebrating a friend's birthday with a group of nine. The decor felt straight out of a Wes Anderson movie or an old-school train cabin-super charming & nostalgic. The food was decent, but what really stood out for me were the drinks-especially the pickle martini, which was a hit. They even made us a plate of pickles upon request, even though it wasn't on the menu, which was a really nice touch.
Overall, the vibe was lovely & we were having a great time-until our interaction with our server, which unfortunately didn't match the rest of the experience. She approached our table without a greeting & bluntly asked,'What do you want to drink?' It felt a bit off-putting right from the start. Then, before even offering dessert, she told us she needed to make sure we were leaving soon. This caught us off guard, as we were still ordering drinks & planning to enjoy coffee & dessert.
It felt like we were being rushed out, though the restaurant didn't appear to be full-there was no one waiting at the door when we checked. She also entered the wrong payment amount for one of our friends, & when he pointed it out, she implied that he hadn't paid her in full, which wasn't the case. It turned into an awkward exchange. After we left, we all realized she had been cold or distant with everyone at the table-not just a one-off moment.
On the bright side, the bartender who brought us our drinks was incredibly kind & all smiles-he really added warmth to our night.
Just a heads-up: the bathroom is located upstairs, so it might be a bit tricky if you have mobility issues. I was in a boot & using a cane at the time, & navigating the stairs wasn't the easiest. Getting around the table was also a bit of a challenge.
All in all, it was a fun night with great company & unique drinks, but the service unfortunately took away from what could have been an excellent experience.View more

As a Polish person myself, I can confidently say that this is the best spot for Polish food in all of Canada. I haven't food like this since I was back in Poland. The service is top notch & the live music with inside scenery makes for an excellent experience!View more

Cute place with live piano. Attentive service. Great food. If you want to sample a variety of Polish dishes, debutant is a good choice. Sznycel wiedenski & sznycel mielony are both good. Also their beer tastes great. The apple cobbler is a little milder than I expected but still tasty.View more

This is our favourite restaurant in Old Montreal, we simply always have to go whenever we visit. The 3 course menu is always our go-to. The atmosphere alone could make this restaurant a must-see but the authentic food & hospitality is what keeps us coming back.View more

Just happened upon this restaurant with my wife & two good friends. We had a very traditional Polish meal & everything was fantastic. The Apple cobbler is the best I've ever had. The staff were super friendly & the price is reasonable. I'm sorry I don't live here because I would eat in this restaurant all the time.View more
