Cozy Southern-leaning brunch and oyster-happy-hour spot with standout biscuits, hushpuppies, and cocktails; expect slow kitchen times on busy weekends and a polarizing pancake.
Stowaway delivers solid neighborhood dining with standout food quality anchored by exceptional biscuits, hushpuppies, and shrimp and grits, plus a warm, personable bar scene that builds loyalty. However, quality inconsistency—particularly polarizing pancakes and seasoning variance—combined with recurring weekend kitchen delays of 45–90 minutes prevents grade A territory. The compact space and no-reservation policy add practical friction, though portions and value align well with the neighborhood brunch-and-cocktail positioning.
One caveat: Kitchen delays common on peak weekends; plan for a wait
