Stowaway was there for us in our time of need and we loved every second of it. After a long flight and no food in our stomaches despite it feeling like 3PM our time (we came from the East Coast), we were famished and wanting a filling and nourishing brunch. Stowaway gave us that and more. Though the food took awhile to arrive once we ordered, it was well worth the wait. The vibes are great, the staff is super kind and generous, and of course the food is outstanding.
We came here at around 1PM on a Saturday. There wasn't much available, but we were able to find a few open seats at one of the longer, communal tables. The space itself is welcoming, with a storefront that opens to the outside giving the spot an open-air feel, greenery, great music, and quirky decor. The brunch menu has a lot to offer so good luck trying to make your choice. As a gluten-free girlie, I was thrilled to see so many options that I could choose from. We both ordered cold brews, and my husband got the waffles with all the fixin's while I got the Colorful Colorado (salt + vinegar smashed potato, Beeler's ham (and/or avocado), pickled radishes, sauteed seasonal greens, asparagus + spicy adobo sauce + two poached eggs). I'm not into ham so I just got the avocado.
Let me say, even if the ambiance was terrible here -- and it's not -- this place still would've probably been five stars for my dish alone. It is truly my perfect brunch dish. I am always an eggs for brunch person but I like some veggies as well. The combo of the runny yolk from the poached eggs, the super tasty sauce, and the diced onions just made every ingredient in this dish better. The potatoes were delicious on their own, but in a bit of sauce with those onions they were, yes I'm saying it, chef's kiss.
While I did not try my husband's dish, he ate it in about five minutes, which is saying a lot because it usually takes him 45 minutes to eat half of a Sweetgreen salad. We also got some baked goods to go (coffee cake, brownie, and a cookie) which were properly inhaled later.
