Came here with a group of gals to make bridal shower plans over breakfast and was put on the waitlist on the particularly busy morning, waited about 20-30 minutes before being seated in a booth. Ordered a short stack of pancakes and figured portion sizes would be large as with most breakfast/brunch spots and we would share amongst ourselves if we ordered different things. The pancakes were large for a short stack, but nothing particularly special about them. They weren't fluffy and tasted typical. Tried a bit of country fried steak, sausage and other items the other girls ordered and it was okay. Service is really slow here and we had to flag down the waiters to see when our food would come, or to bring us straws, it was about another 15-20 min for food to come out and not all of the food came out together. Definitely not a place if you're looking for quick brunch with no plans later in the day. Overpriced for what it is, slow service with just okay breakfast food. It can be difficult to find parking, since there's only street parking available and the line for breakfast/brunch goes out the door. read more

Stacks - Short Stack - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Campbell, California

I've been a Stacks customer for almost the whole 33 years I've lived in Campbell and west San Jose. I used to frequent the one in Menlo Park for lunch. My favorite entree is the short stack of the Lumberjack Pancakes. My daughters and I enjoyed eating at one of the outdoor tables. I suggest that teenage girls and women share a breakfast entree, as most are too large for a single human female. read more

At first glance, stacks is a very cozy American styled diner. I came with my friends for a brunch gathering, and the wait was around 20 minutes for a Sunday morning. Overall, the service was very nice, and the waitress kept checking up on us, but the food took a while to serve (another 20 minute wait). We ordered the Nutella French Toast, Huevos Rancheros, and the Apple Sausage Omellete along with a couple of blueberry wheat pancakes. I highly recommend all of these items, especially their blueberry wheat pancakes. The Nutella toast was very fluffy, and the wheat germ pancakes had a layer of crusting on top (which was different from other pancake spots). Overall, we ended up spending ~$25 per person. I had a great time at stacks, and I would definitely come back to try out more of their pancake flavors :) read more

Service is solid, the folks are friendly and they want your business. The Ambiance is average, typical layout. The Food is not good, and comes in one of two conditions: Too expensive for the portion size or Adequately portioned with poor quality. This is supposed to be a pancake house, and the pancakes are sub-bisquick. They give you four table spoons of hashed browns. You leave feeling hungry and disappointed in the foods taste. read more

On Monday morning 4/22/24 I visited Stacks and ordered the chicken fried steak with over easy eggs and sourdough toast. However, to my disappointment, the supposed sourdough tasted more like plain white bread. Additionally, the eggs were overcooked and the chicken fried steak was incredibly tough, resembling shoe leather. When I brought this up to our waiter, an East Indian gentleman, he dismissively replied with "too bad." I paid my bill and left, vowing to never return to this disgusting place with even worse service. read more

Our server was friendly and that's the only good part of our visit today. We really wanted to give this place a try but overall had a subpar experience and actually got home with stomach aches. I will say people seem to like this place so maybe there are popular items on the menu that they're known for? -- -- -- The strawberry Nutella crepe tasted like old strawberries that had been sitting out and the crepe itself tasted like the type you buy pre made from the grocery store. Not one warm bite at all. Two fist-sized mounds of whipped cream, far too much for my preference. 1/10 The carnitas skillet was dry and tasted like microwaved leftovers from the night before. Every other bite was cold while the rest were warm at best. The meat had decent flavor but didn't make up for the rest. 2/10 read more

Came in on a Monday morning with my 18 month toddler and an appetite. The restaurant was far from empty but there was plenty of space. The staff was warm and welcoming. They played and interacted with my toddler throughout the meal experience. He loved them and also loved the food which I feel came out extra quick. We had a good time and definitely can rate this spot on our top 10 toddler friendly spaces. Thanks!! read more

Been going here ever since I was a kid and quality has been good the entire time! It's easy to park here even though it's in downtown Campbell because it's right by a big parking lot. Theres usually a bit of a wait but not too bad. I always get the veggie omelet that comes with sour cream, hash browns and a bagel. The omelet here is so flavorful and filling, and the hash brown is light and doesn't make you overly full either! I love the option to get a bagel instead of toast with your meal. I've also tried the banana and pecan Belgian waffle and the parfait which are also delicious. 100% check out' read more

The food here was really yummy. Even though it was pretty busy. The staff came to every table to check on everybody and ask if we were okay and to double check our things and make sure everything was right. Did out door dining with mah bf and my best friend and we all enjoyed our food. Portions are pretty big. Maybe if I was younger and in my prime 13 year old vacuum stomach I could have done it. But I couldn't finish the last 25% of my food. I'm pretty patient so nothing to complain about. Would def come back here again when I make a mini San Jose trip again. read more

We walked in & sat at the bar. The diner seemed moderately busy but not weekend morning busy. Our server was Carlos, he didn't greet us until about 10 mins in. While taking our orders, he seemed rushed as though we were a bother. We sat for about 25 mins with no water or update on our orders. People that walked in 10 mins after us were getting their food before we even received our waters. We ended up telling another server to cancel our order and ended up walking out. Terrible, unfriendly service. Definitely will not be back. read more

After years of being away from South Bay , finally went back to this spot after raving about it to my family. We were a family of 6 and ordered California Benedict (it was okay, but all the veggies were on the raw side), crab crepe (a big portion of the crepe was raw) spicy California omelette (was great), banana macadamia (great quality and the best thing we had here, we all fought for the last bite), all the hash brown that was served on the side of our plates was white/cold/on the raw side. We also ordered two orange juices, that were clearly spoiled - the manager was nice and offered us to open a new bottle or remove it from our check (which we accepted) Really disappointed in our experience. I understand if it's a busy day you might be slower but there's a bare minimum attention to detail and care of food quality that should be maintained and the food customers are served. read more

I come here often, but especially when I have visitors from out of town, because it never disappoints. There's something for every style of eating, the service is fast and impeccably friendly, and the ambiance is so calm and welcoming. They go the extra mile with presentation, good coffee, and special touches for anniversaries and birthdays. Miriam also went above and beyond this last visit. Thanks, guys! read more

My hubby and I are visiting from Scottsdale, AZ! We used to live in Campbell and were regulars at Stacks! Always great food and the best customer service. In particular, we want to thank little Mariam G! Thank u for making our visit (twice this weekend) such a good one! They are lucky to have you ! Hope to see you again! read more

This is a great no-frills, just pure good-cooking place in Downtown Campbell. I had been to Stacks several years before but since I don't traditionally eat the things they serve here for breakfast I never went back but yesterday my Mother wanted an " American " breakfast so we came here. The place was not very busy on a Wednesday morning at 10 AM when we got there. We were seated immediately by the girl at the counter and several minutes later she took our order. I ordered a Farmer's breakfast, which consisted of 2 pancakes, 2 eggs, 2 bacon strips, 2 sausage links, and potatoes . For a beverage I ordered a glass of orange juice and my Mom ordered breakfast burrito and coffee. We only had to wait about 10 more minutes for our food to be up. Our waiter Carlos was attentive and had everything ready before the order came out and in fact he didn't do very much at all. My Farmer's breakfast was absolutely delicious and really hit the spot. The pancakes were huge, light and fluffy and super moist. The eggs were cooked scrambled the way I wanted and were really filling. The bacon was crispy and I got 2 fat sausage links that were a pleasure to eat. The potatoes capped off a fine meal and I washed it all down with my OJ and by the end of the meal I was COMPLETELY satisfied. I really did enjoy eating at Stacks and I know it is the only place in Campbell I go to when I think about eating a " traditional " American breakfast. Our bill was high ( because of the state the economy was in ) but I think it was worth it for what it was. IMHO I think Stacks is way overpriced but for the ambience, atmosphere, service, attention to detail and overall experience it is worth it and they have made a loyal fan out of me! read more

Stacks is one of my favorite spots to come to for breakfast. The only reason I don't go as often as I'd like to is due to the long wait! The food here tastes like home but better. I always order the sausage and mushroom skillet. The meal comes with 2 eggs, sausages and mushroomson top of hashbrowns. The skillet also comes with a bagel which I replace for a white toast. The portions of mushroom and sausage are perfect. I have also ordered a waffle before along with my skillet and found it to be overwhelming. But it was delicious as well. I love the jars of jams on each of the tables along with syrup. No need to keep asking your server to bring you sides- perfect! read more

We had a delicious and filling breakfast here. The husband, kids and their friends enjoyed the food here. We ordered 2 fruit crepes, 1 strawberry waffles, 1 blueberries pancake, 1 bacon avocado omelet, Meyer lemon, ricotta cream and raspberry pancake and a plain pancake. My order was the Meyer lemon pancake and it was a big bitter for my taste. Probably would do strawberry crepe with Nutella next time. Service was excellent even when it was extremely busy around the holidays. We rsvp for 11am and was seated promptly at 11am since we came at 10:45am. It was great! read more

Wow! What a breakfast. We left with our stomachs full as can be with delicious food. The banana Nutella French toast is not to be missed! It was dense with flavor, delicious, and left us wanting more. We also ordered the open face breakfast sandwich. Overall very good, I do think it could have used some salsa or something to enhance the flavors. Miriam was our server, she was attentive, funny, and personable. We will be back to experience more of what Stacks has to offer on the extensive menu. read more

Stacks is always good. I love the pancakes and I usually get the farmers breakfast which is eggs bacon sausage and the most delicious hash browns! Our service on this visit wasn't the best but the server did apologize she was having a tough morning. It took a long time to get us our check, I forget you can just go up and pay. My friend got the raspberry French toast which seemed a bit different than I remember but was still good. Stacks is a place our family has been coming to for years and will still support. read more

Came for brunch . They have plant based cheese and eggs here!! Love that!! But no plant based waffles or pancakes (which is what I would have ordered) Star taken away because they serve side fruit and extra condiments IN ONE-USE PLASTIC CONTAINERS. So not cool guys. Please do better. We have a plastic crisis on this planet **Please add vegan pancakes to the menu ** read more

Came here for brunch with my classmates after an exam. I have gone to two other locations of Stacks, the one in Redwood City and the other in Palo Alto. Both had great service and good food. This restaurant itself was clean and staff was friendly, but, we had good and okay meals. For the price we paid for each meal, I honestly think the meal could have been better. Below is what was on our menu: Bacon, cheese, and avocado omelet: good but the egg was not filled enough. It was deflated and missing flavor Apple sausage and cheese omelet: same as the omelet above. Meyer Lemon, Ricotta Cream, and Fresh Raspberry pancake: this was actually pretty good. The lemon ricotta cream eas a nice touch. Thumbs up for this. Well worth the price. Strawberry Nutella® Banana Toast: you cannot really go wrong with this. It was delicious also well worth the price. Strawberry Belgian waffles: the strawberries were not ripe enough but waffles were cooked well. Hot link, mushroom, and onion omelet: this was good but small in proportion I wish there were half stars because I would give it 3 1/2. If they just tweaked a few things, i would give it another star. I would still recommend this place to those who ask. read more

Don't go here they'll scam you. I bought the $20 Groupon and ordered a $13 breakfast basic and $7.75 yogurt but somehow my order came out to $30. They charged me an extra $10 for something I paid for already. Shady owner. Interior design was whatever read more

Loved the mighty meat crepe, my sis in law got the chorizo skillet i liked hers better but I never had a meat crepe before and it was actually not too bad. I loved the hashbrowns and the toast was buttered nicely . They do not advertise that mimosas are available but we asked if they served mimosas and this menu was given to us. be careful , they are pretty strong and you do get your money's worth when ordering the large option. read more

Came here for brunch- it was surprisingly crowded for a Thursday- but we were still seated immediately which was nice. My sister in law ordered the crab omelette and she loved it! She had nothing bad to say about it. My brother ordered the spicy veggie omelette, he gave it a 2.5/5. I ordered the lemon, ricotta, raspberry pancakes. They were good. However, I had two big qualms with it. There were big pieces of lemon peel. Like they grated it, instead of zesting it. It left a slightly bitter taste, and I wasn't a fan of the texture. My second qualm was the ricotta was served on top of warm pancakes, so it too became warm. I would've preferred it to be served on the side. If I ever go back, I'd definitely just order a plain pancake, or something more simple. Service was ok. Super fast - but not very friendly. There's so many options in this area- I'd probably skip this one. read more

The first time I had Stacks, was 10 years ago near Menlo Park. I was hoping that this location would be the same. It was not. So let's see what went wrong. At the point of when the server asked for what we wanted to order, she requested that we order in the direction we are sitting. So we had to order from left to right. When we were being served, the plates came out 5 minutes apart with the last plate being served 15 minutes after everyone had been served. The omelette was pretty sad. The egg wasn't fluffy, the holandaise sauce was watery, and the omelette was uber small. Their chicken and waffle was more like Chicken tenders and waffles. Ugh We also order a short stack of orea pancakes. They were small. Not the standard big pancakes that are the same size as the plate. Pretty disappointed. The cakes weren't fluffy. We're somewhat gooey in the middle. Not the good gooey, but the type of gooey that made me think the pancakes weren't cooked long enough. Anyhow, I hope that isn't the norm, and that other people had better experience. read more

My family first discovered the Stacks on Campbell last summer and we've been fans ever since. They have set the bar high from service to good quality, they never miss a beat. The food has always been cooked thoroughly and seasoned to perfection. Stacks has set the bar high for my family now when we go to other breakfast restaurants, we always compare them to Stacks. We will actually be going there in a few minutes. I'll be sure to update this review with pictures! read more

I live and work pretty far from Stacks so I haven't been there in years. I was in the neighborhood yesterday so I decided to get my beloved crab melt. The price has gone up, but not by much. Just a few dollars, and it's more than reasonable for using real crab, in my opinion. Still stuffed with crab (though maybe not as much as it used to be), still layered with bright green and ripened avocado slices, and the toast is still buttery and delightfully crisp. This came with a side salad, French fries, and a very small cup of fruit. I asked for no pickle and no tomato - all requests were met! Very satisfying for less than $19. I took one star off because when I called, I was told it only comes with salad. After I remarked that it came with fruit after looking at the menu at checkout, I think they put a tiny side of fruit in the bag. A little weird, especially given how small the container was. Overall, I'd still go back for this gem of a sandwich. read more

Okay so we were seated literally right next to kitchen. I DID NOT want to sit here because it's right next to the kitchen and the restaurant is busy. First thing, if you're going to create seating where customers can see part of your operation, the place should be CLEAN, this is food we're taking about. Why do I have to be subjected to seeing a FILTHY floor as numerous servers walk over food, napkins and hella crumbs. There should be a dedicated person to handle the clean up, it's almost cause to make you want to walk out but Boo was hangry and his mood does change. In saying this, he himself commented, "the back area is filthy." The food here is cool, I came here once before several months ago but trust me, had we experienced what we experienced today, not only would we NOT have waited the 40 mins but we surely would not have returned. Needless to say, we won't be back. I ordered a breakfast sandwich and y'all know I want my bacon extra crispy and egg fried hard. Well the egg was partially cooked right but after biting into it, I saw yolk. It wasn't running out but it also wasn't what I asked for when I said, "fried egg, hard, no yolk." I am very specific with my order in hopes that I don't have to send my food back. It was actually okay because seeing all we saw, somewhat made me not so hungry anyway. Another issue I had was the number of servers touching the bread to be toasted going out on people's plates. I kid you not, I saw NO LESS than 6 different people handling the bread, NOT ONE wore gloves and one of them had long, acrylic nails. I'm like are you SERIOUS?? There was one young girl placing the bread in the toaster and she consistently used tongs. I watched her remove the bread with tongs and place it in the toaster the same way. Someone learned something from the MANDATORY food handling course. However, these various servers who were touching one another on the back, wiping their jeans and one male who I even saw cough on his hands, all handled the bread with not a napkin, glove, tong, nope.... bare hands. STACKS will never see Boo or I again. I was beyond shocked by the numerous violations we saw. I couldn't wait to leave, no wonder they're only 3.5 stars and after what we saw today, that's generous. Please get it together before someone ge read more

My visit to Stacks was a lot better than I previously wrote about. Wonderful service and just as good food today. I arrived with a party of 7 and they were able to accommodate us right away. We got sat and didn't wait long to order and receive our drinks, so we had them when we ordered our food. Great move. We all ordered something different, but I was only able to take a photo the plates near me. Nonetheless, all of the breakfast plates had a great presentation and all of them came out warm. All of my friends raved about their meals, so that gave me some high expectations for the Open Face Breakfast Sandwich I ordered. I also added a side of one Lumberjack pancake to make it a little sweeter. The open sandwich had fresh slices of ham, a good amount of bacon covered with avocado, and eggs and cheese on top. Oh and the side of potatoes was cooked perfectly. The lumberjack pancake was also well cooked and tasted wonderful. With service and food like that, I can't wait to go back. read more

This was an ordinary eating out experience. The best thing I can say about it was the service was totally dialed in from walking in and being greeted to order taken, food delivered and leaving. The food was overpriced, small portions and flavorless. One of those meals your SMH why did I spend money on that. Pass on a return visit! read more

Finally tried it, intentionally the day before a new diet. Good service, great downtown Campbell location, and interesting menu. I liked the Oreo & cream pancake, the bagel option (instead of toast), and the pile of weird, limp potato rectangles they call hash browns. Approved and recommended... but to be honest: with a $50 price for breakfast (3 items, 2 non-alcoholic drinks), I'm more likely to go to my three other local favorites. read more

Was craving pancakes so I had to stop by and try Stacks! It's located on a street corner so it's easy to spot. Plus when I went, there was a crowd outside which made it even easier to spot. The wait for a table of 2 didn't take long and it certainly helped the wait having that they leave a free coffee station outside by the door. I opted for a full stack of pancakes (x3 pancakes) and was only able to finish half! The pancakes were fluffy and had a good amount of fruit served in/on top of the pancakes which I absolutely loved. The service was nice and friendly. I'd come back again if I was in the area! read more

I just had brunch here with my husband, my MIL, and my dog for my birthday. The host was very accommodating, we requested for outdoor seating and he kept us updated on the wait.

Our server Miriam C was super sweet and and got us our food in very good time, accommodated all requests! A very good experience overall! read more

My boyfriend took me out for breakfast at Stacks because I was super hungry after my 7am class and I just couldn't wait until lunch since I don't eat breakfast before my class starts. It was very crowded when we arrived and we had to park inside the parking garage and walk the rest of the way. We were seated kind of where the servers pick up the food from the kitchen. Our waiter was very kind and had great hospitality. I forgot what my boyfriend ordered since it has been a few weeks, but I always order an eggs benedict every time I go out for breakfast. I decided to replace the ham with bacon and they gave me A LOT of bacon to the point where I couldn't finish it. It's a good problem to have. It was kind of awkward since the kitchen staff and servers were kind of fighting over a customer's order and the server was apologizing to the kitchen staff but they were just being passive aggressive towards her. I kind of felt bad. Anyways, would love to return when I have the time! Only downfall is it is kind of pricey, but once in awhile it would be a great meal to have. read more

Breakfast this morning at Stacks. I think I arrived at a good time, busy, but I didn't have to wait. My server was friendly and service was fast. I had a crab crepe. Very happy with my choice.
