Stax Cafe offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, making it a great place for a meal. Customers praise the restaurant for its exceptional fries and the delicious Monte Cristo waffle. The skillet dish is tasty, though some found it a bit too onion-heavy. The service is excellent, with staff attentive and friendly, often going above and beyond to make special occasions memorable. Despite a minor issue, the quick seating and tasty food make Stax Cafe a recommended spot for a satisfying meal.
The cafe has a good breakfast menu, featuring a variety of skillets, omelets, pancakes, and eggs. Diners especially enjoy the lumberjack skillet, which includes plenty of meat and potatoes, and can upgrade to flavorful pancakes like the chocolate chip variety. The food presentation is nice, and portions are generous, making it a good choice for both sweet and savory breakfast options. The service is very good, and prices are typical for the area. Customers also mention enjoying burgers, whiskey, and the overall friendly atmosphere.
