Went here for brunch and all the items we got were very good! The cocktails were delicious.

I've had Stowaway Kitchen on my bookmarks for a couple of years and finally made it happen! One of my friends had suggested something "healthy and new," so this was the perfect spot to check out for lunch. The restaurant itself was bright and decorated perfectly. The staff was very welcoming but not the most attentive. We ended up waiting quite awhile once our 3rd guest arrived. Thankfully the food came out quickly. It was a tad on the pricey side for lunch, but I'd still come back for more since the food was so well done! I tried the Japanese Asa-gohan and it was just delightful! Everything was so fresh and perfectly seasoned. read more

This is such a beautiful place..food is so delicious, clean eats! The coffee is so yummy..relaxing open space! Little bit of a pain to park but it's worth every step! You won't be disappointed! The couple that own this gem are absolutely amazing people, very welcoming and kind.. read more

Service was sublime. Food was just alright and a little expensive in my opinion. It lacked soul or character. But I would go back for the atmosphere, yummy coffee, and great service. read more

This spot is super cute. We sat outside which was a perfect spot to have a convo where tit wasn't too loud. I asked for simple syrup for the Matcha to make it sweeter to my liking. This meal was DELICIOUS. Light yet filling. It is a small space, so there is limited seating. Get their early especially if you sit outside so it can be fresh! read more

Stowaway Kitchen - Colorful Colorado - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Denver, Colorado

THIS. First stop on our way through Denver. Best food we had in the state! The Colorful Colorado is basically a potato hash, but this was the most balanced meal that I've ever had the pleasure of enjoying. Perfectly cooked runny egg on top, acidic radishes and vinegar, creamy avocado, fresh greens and asparagus, salty ham, and a spicy sauce to pull it all together! Surprisingly light and didn't weigh me down at 9am. I also ordered a Cortada which was thick and strong to get me going for the day. Beautifully poured. We sat in a booth and enjoyed the weather by the garage door patio. Free and easy street parking. Not crowded at 9am on a Thursday. Near other food and clubs. There is definitely a chef behind that counter! I will dream of this food until we meet again! read more

Best brunch in Denver. I said it. Great pastries they make in house. Great cocktails. Great dishes from the traditional breakfast like French toast to what I find more interesting dishes like smoked fish salads. Always great service and a great ambiance!! read more

Cute cafe in the heart of RiNo featuring eclectic dishes from around the world. We came here on a Saturday morning for brunch only to find out the wait is going to be half an hour or longer. Well, guess that's expected given how popular they are. The cafe is cozy and airy with modern touches. There's a coffee station serving up fresh brews and teas. Their pastry case displays fresh baked goods from that morning both sweet and savory. Once we finally sat down, we started with green tea and a flat white. You get a nice tea set with the tea, which is a nice touch. I had the Killer Whale Granola with pear instead of banana, which I preferred anyway. The whipped was so creamy and velvety, paired with the homemade crunchy granola and juicy fruit, it was the perfect light meal that actually leaves you satisfied! My friend had the lamb pie cooked in red wine. She said the pastry was very crispy and a lot of effort went into making it instead of an after thought. The lamb was extremely tender and flavorful! Overall, a hearty pie that will make her come back for more. Service was friendly and a bit rushed, which I understand when they have a line of people waiting. If you're in the neighborhood craving for some unique bites, fresh baked goods and hot beverages, give Stowaway a try! Just expect a bit of wait on the weekends or holidays. read more

Just tried to dine here. There was a sign above the register saying "check in here". There were two couples waiting who said they were already checked in so I walked up to the register. Man behind the register said rather condescendingly "this is for people who have already checked in. You need to put your name in first over there." Oh at the hostess stand where no one is standing and it's not even clear is a hostess stand? Sorry it's my first time here and I didn't know the secrets of being able to get my name on the wait list. I'm admittedly impatient for poor customer service experiences, so I left after this. read more

I'll drive 30 mins just to eat here. All you need to know is if you like salamon and rice: The Japanese Asa Gohan is amazing. Flavors are so memorable. The slaw is so different than anything I've had. The poached egg on top was weird in my mind, I almost ordered it without it. But trust me, it ties everything together and I want more than just one on top! It has a small amount of salt-ness that just is the cherry on top. As far is the vibe and aesthetic, they have a garage door that opens during the summer time or nice weather. The kitchen is open which is a cool vibe you can hear them cooking up your food. The place isn't that big so make sure to make a reservation to get a seat right away. They also have pastries to go if you just want to pop in for a quick bite. Parking: it's all street parking. You might have to circle a bit or park a few blocks away but I've always been able to find something even when it's been pretty busy read more

I love stowaway kitchen! It's such a great option for brunch/lunch. They have great meat, veggie, vegan and GF options. Their cold brew with a fresh pastry is pure heaven. Be aware they're currently limiting the seating to an hour per table so not the best if you're going with a group that wants to hang out. I prefer sitting in the cafe since they can open the garage style door and it lets in fresh air - particularly nice on a classic warm CO day. Parking can be iffy so just leave yourself some time! Reservations are highly encouraged on the weekend :) read more

Fire spot for breakfast. They do serve alcohol but they don't have typical brunch items so if you're coming in with a hangover, you might not get over that hump here. I left feeling amazing after my first of many soon to be many visits. oyako-don...donburi-style but not all the way. The focus on this rice bowl is on the veggies. There's a mix of chicken and egg as well. I liked the split but if you're meat-leaning person, then ask for more. asa-gohan...salmon salad. But the ginger slaw, nori and poached egg make it "not your typical salmon salad". This could be a meal on its own. malabar tea - ginger and lemongrass. I think a sprinkle of turmeric but all delicious. I will get through the entire menu for sure. Vibes are cool but the service can be slow. Bring a book... read more

Cold morning, arrived with no reservation. The server said I needed a reservation and I could do so online. Luckily, I was able to get a reservation online for 15 minutes later! Forbidden Rice Porridge - this was amazing! When it was served to me, the server mentioned it wasn't too sweet, so I could request some syrup. At that point, I knew it would be perfect. The creaminess and slight sweetness was supplied by the coconut cream, with the rest of the flavor coming from the fresh mango bits. Japanese Asa-Gohan - great Japanese inspired entree with good balance. You get the salty grilled salmon, which pairs very nicely with the carrot+ginger slaw. This dish overall makes you feel like you ate a really healthy meal. read more

AMAZING quality of food. The mushroom tartine was so tasty, I could've ordered 2! It was a really cute atmosphere and the service was great but we did wait a long time. We were there for a little over 2 hours and it took about 50 minutes to get our food after sitting for 20 minutes. But that didn't take away from the amazing food or friendly service! read more

This is an incredible spot for breakfast! The Colorful Colorado stole the show. It was a perfectly poached egg, an even egg white surrounding a soft yolk interior. The adobo sauce paired with the egg, potato's, and everything else seems like an odd combination. A pretty normal American breakfast with an adobo sauce? Yes! It's slightly spicy but that's to my preference. read more

Rino District. Signage is small so it may be easy to miss, but make sure not to miss this. I haven't had a breakfast as satisfying as this one in quite some time. The combination of flavors energized me. I had a grin from ear to ear as I took each bite. Pickled radishes. Pickled radishes. Oh man I was in heaven!! Grateful I have been exposed to this place.

Probably the best experience I've ever had at a restaurant in CO. The waffle was incredibly light and the best waffle I've ever had. The iced coffee was only $3.50, came with a refill, and tasted like it was prepared by someone who was blissfully unaware of how bad the cold brew is at Starbucks. Then, the eggplant sandwich thing. Mother of God one of the best sandwiches you could ever hope to consume. This thing was on a ciabatta that was blessed by Zeus and the sandwich had some spice to it. I was so full that I couldn't finish the little I had left and my wife irritated my finish my food OCD by refusing to help me out. So, I boxed it up and proceeded to carry it around for hours refusing to let it go. When I finally ate it while slumped over my suitcase, I regretted nothing. read more

Super cozy cafe offering delicious baked goods and a lighter brunch menu. From the espresso bar their drinks are made with house made cashew milk (delish!) and I opted to add honey for some sweetness. I ordered the Japanese Asa-Gohan, Blueberry Almond Tea Cake, and to-go a Cinnamon Roll. Everything was really good, I don't think you can go wrong with anything you order here. read more

This is a fun, hip spot downtown. Everything we had was tasty. Make sure to have a reservation, it fills up fast!

First time being here, and I am impressed! The food and the space feels homey. Think fancy version of mom's kitchen. The food looked like and tasted like it was cooked from scratch. Also, I need to say, the plating is very impressive. I almost felt bad getting started on the food. Great place for a quick bite, a nice wholesome brunch, and small talk. The space is cozy, bright, and well thought out. Doesn't seem like a place that would get overly crowded. We had the Colorful Colorado and the Mushroom Tartine. Recommend both! Will definitely come back soon read more

Legit. Everything was great, but my fave was the Apricot French Toast, which I'd label "special". I ordered it by accident thinking I was ordering the fruit toast, and boy am I glad I did. It comes with an actual poached apricot on top of delectable brioche. It is vying for top spot in my mind of all-time best French Toast. The Japanese Asa-Gohan was awesome. These guys know how to cook salmon to perfection and the fusion of flavors was great. The Scram breakfast sandwich had some of the best ham I've ever had, kudos to the farm they source their pork from, but was otherwise fairly standard, which isn't bad, but if you're looking for something more inventive I'd go with the other two options mentioned. Also super friendly servers. Well done, Stowaway! read more

Stowaway Kitchen - Eggplant and Eggplant Halloumi Sandwich Japanese Asa-Gohan Mushroom Tartine - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This is a fun, trendy, light & open space in Rino. If you're looking for good food & coffee, this is your spot. If you're looking for a remote work/study hangout, this is NOT your spot. There's no wifi or plugs. Fair warning :) I am taking off a star because although the food/coffee is amazing, this place is the definition of snobby. I have several examples of this from the servers, but one in particular stands out. I went with my husband for a weekend breakfast, and at the time I was in a phase with my coffee of drinking it with just a little bit of cream. We have an aero-press at home, and I'd been making it that way (and I understand how it works...) I saw they had some fun bean blends/flavors that were made on aero-press, so I was excited! I ordered this from the server, and when they asked me if I wanted cream or sugar with my coffee, they phrased it like this: "Do you like cream or sugar with your coffee?" Thinking this was just a way of asking me which I wanted, I responded, "Yes, a little cream would be great". They then said, "Oh. Well if you want that, I'd recommend one of our brewed coffees, not aero-press. Aero-press is really for tasting the flavors of the coffee". Fair... and I know that... but let me make my choices... so I responded "No, that's okay. I'll just get the aero-press". When they brought our drinks, they brought my aero-press WITHOUT cream! They just left it out - making the decision for me! I was too self-conscious to ask for it given the judgement I just received, so just drank it black... and it was delicious. But WOW. Talk about snobby (and controlling). Let the people have their coffee how they want it! The food menu is really unique, and everything I've had is delicious. It's honestly what makes me keep coming back - my stomach always leaves satisfied! Just beware what you're in for when you visit... the owner is actually really really nice, but some of the servers are a littttttle too much for my taste. #pretentious read more

Ok. Lets talk about how cozy this little place is. Also, I noticed a lot of plants and that just seemed nice. My husband and I came here for breakfast around 9 AM on a Sunday morning. It wasn't that crowded but definitely busy. The patio was very energetic in a way but was kind of hot so we choose to sit inside. For breakfast, I ordered the scram sandwich. To be honest, I thought it would blow my mind but it was just good enough. I liked how the bun was soft and how the avocado smoothly lingered in the middle of all the goodness...but...it was alright. Anyway, give it a try. It won't disappoint. My husband ordered Colorful Colorado and really enjoyed the sauce! I'm sure this dish is a huge hit here! Oh, and it looks pretty too. read more

Don't judge a cover by it's book, right? You would not be able to tell anything about the cafe from the facade of the building. Immediately after walking in you are greeted by smiling faces. It's a table service type of place, if you are staying, so pick a seat and get comfy. Someone will come to you with water and menus. The best part - the service is not pretentious like at other Rino establishments. Thank you for the recommendation to take my flat white with cashew milk. The frothiness was surprising. No sugar, definitely not needed as it was perfectly sweet just the way it was delivered to me. We, also, tried the frittata with goat cheese and the roasted pepper and parm scone. Breakfast or brunch, it was the perfect pairing. Two feature that I enjoyed is the conversation level chatter and the natural light. Some places are way too loud or too quiet. Stowaway is at a comfortable medium level with the noise. The big windows allow all that amazing natural light to permeate the establishment. Really chill place. read more

The environment: Gorgeous decor. Full of light and has really cool paintings on the walls. Lots of space inside, not too loud. The food: Mushroom tartine - MUST try this one. Sautéed mushroom + sautéed spinach + beet hummus + goat cheese all on sourdough bread with a poached egg on top. Absolutely delicious combination of flavors. I would fly back to Denver just to have this for brunch again. Beautiful presentation. Japanese asa-gohan - grilled salmon + avocado + toasted nori + poached egg with rice. Absolutely delicious, great combination of flavors with the carrot based slaw. The price: Worth every penny. Healthy, delicious, and beautiful presentation. How often do you find all 3 of those? The service: Took a while to get our food, but we were there on Saturday morning right around their busiest hour, so no surprises there. Staff was very nice and accommodating. read more

If I had to pick one breakfast spot in all of Denver, it would be Stowaway. A charming, relaxed spot in a great location, Stowaway has it all. The staff is friendly and helpful, the coffee is good (and strong!), and the food is both delicious and unique. They have a large assortment of vegetarian and fish-forward meals, many of which contain things I would never think to put together...but it works. The Colorful Colorado is my personal favorite, with enough zing from the vinegar to really amp up the flavors. Absolutely get whatever the fruited bread is, even if you've never liked bread with fruit in it before (I fall into that camp, but this bread has converted me - warm, hearty, flavorful, with salted butter? It's all I want to eat now). If you're ready for a new favorite place, come here - you won't regret it! read more

1.5. Years. That's how young Stowaway is. The food. I say this with a look of disgust towards me and not Stowaway. It's not for me. Why? My friend said because it's too healthy? I would say it's too complicated. And tiny. So I was left hungry and wanting more. My breakfast normally is very manly. Eggs, sausage or bacon and some eggs. That's it. Maybe a toast, it's not here. Since I am obviously not meant for this place I ended up ordering their Killer Whale Granola. It's house almond and pomegranate granola, whipped yogurt, pecan - coconut crumble, bananas and poached goji berries. This was good. But like I said...simple manly breakfast ....not here...too trendy. read more

Just get the japanese asa-gohan! I had a reservation, but decided to come early and wait the 45 minutes on a Sunday morning because my reservation would have cut too close to my meeting. The seating host seemed to be a bit rude, not that much to me...but I heard another customer commenting on it to their friends. Once I was seated I knew what I wanted to order since I had the 45 minutes to review the menu. I got the Japanese asa-gohan, black sesame + blueberry waffle, and a raspberry rose donut (donuts ONLY served on Sundays). The Japanese asa-gohan was delicious! I mixed everything together and ate it up. Amazing. Also, super pretty so make your friends jealous with some photos! The waffle was okay. I was intrigued because I love black sesame...but that flavor didn't really come through and while the waffle was good...it was more so like a regular waffle with some very creamy whipped cream and berries. The donut was also okay. I actually got it because some locals told me how they are only served on Sundays and I don't know the next time that I will be in Denver. I had it at night after a company dinner and while it was good...it wasn't spectacular. All in all, I am really happy I went and I'd like to try another donut because they change the flavors and the filled ones look good! read more
