Stir

Stir is a great place to meet with friends with your dog over a family friendly breakfast/brunch. Let's talk about food. Food always tastes great and there are plenty of options, in my opinion, so veggies. However, it's really expensive... hence 4 stars. Coffee was quite good also, served from a barista. Service. Excellent. Staff were super friendly. Very considerate. And food and drinks were delivered super quick. Atmosphere. For a cafe type place as good as it gets I guess. Bit echoey. Furnished nicely. Clean. Others were respectful.

Always wonderful to visit one of my favourite cafes in Cambridge (outskirts). I no longer live in central Cambridge and driving here to conveniently find cheap or free parking is a blessing. Service is always excellent and coffees are great. I used to order from the bakery however I sadly don’t anymore. The menu items are always accented very well with what the bakery produces. Simple yet delicious food all the time. The only critique is their hollandaise sauce is not made in house and the smoked salmon servings have shrunk over time and become more expensive. I’ve pretty much tried the entire menu over the many years I’ve been visiting here. Truly exceptional.

Coffee and brunch was lovely, though my eggs were a little cold when they arrived (see additional review at the bottom), but the truffle mushrooms on sourdough toast were great. We came at busy Sunday brunch time and it took 50 mins for our food to arrive so be aware of that. It was also incredibly noisy because it was so busy. I'd like to try it at a quieter time. I've been back on a weekday. Much better. Fast and efficient service. Eggs Benedict were perfect and no issue with the temperature.
