      Just average breakfast fare about the same as I can do for myself at home. Still the service was good and the breakfast was ok.

      I would give this place more stars because my breakfast was actually delicious but they just couldn't handle the day. My parents eggs were cold and the waitresses were running around. It's short staffing. Try this place when they have the staffing to handle the crowd and I bet it would be wonderful.

      I was here back in May. First time since then, but they don't open for breakfast until after 8AM ! Since it was already after 9, I decided I was good.
      It was a weekday, so only one section was open. Although I was by myself, I took a table instead of the bar. This section has 7 tables/4 tops and 12 bar stools.
      Staff totaled 6, two were servers, they also attended to the bar.
      Service was a tad slower than my previous visit, had to wait for coffee cup to be filled a couple of times. Coffee cups are rather small too.
      I was pleasantly surprised that prices remained the same as they were 5 months ago. Nowadays these restaurants are raising menu prices 2-3 times per year.j Not here, at least not yet.
      I got the omelet. It was fluffy, seemed small for three eggs, but I didn't leave hungry. Coffee was $2.

      Except for Sporty's Cafe down the street, you won't find a cheaper breakfast.
      I'm not including McDonald's here, that's a different style of restaurant altogether.

      I'll be back.

      2 egg, ham, hash browns.
 All basic from a package.

      We recently moved to Grand Haven and by luck found this jewel. My wife had a Philly steak and cheese, while I had the Polish plate. Both meals were amazing. A big tip off their food is great, we're all the locals eating at Stanz.

      My wife and I highly recommend Stanz!!

      Friendly and good service at Stanz!
      My Bourbon Street Omelet with polish kielbasa was awesome!
      My wife's American breakfast was disappointing as the hash browns were dry and the bacon was burnt and dry.
      The good news was the Mimosas were generous and spot on!

      We came here because of the diverse menu that looked kid friendly. It was on the East side of Grand Haven, next to Frank's market. The beer was cheap and cold. The chicken fingers for the kids were made with real chicken and well seasoned. I had the polish plate... it was divine. Definitely a rival to the one at Legg's Inn and HALF the price. Delicious food. We will be back. Next time we want to sample the gumbo!

      Stanz is a staple for the locals in the area. Food is consistent and pretty good. Portions are generous and drink refills are plentiful. Service has always been good.

      stanz has two items I find in dad to be so good and on the same menu, polish platter and gumbo. The pierogies are great and the cabbage could be served at Pulaski days. The gumbo is a good approximation of the Louisiana staple with large chunks of chicken. It's a bit on the mild side for my taste but still good.

      Friendly quiet atmosphere for anytime of the day.

      Mind blown. Theeeeeee best pierogis! Crispy, cheesy, smothered in chopped onions. It's a great vibe here and we love the bartender, Annette. I need to try her take on a Margarita.

      I live in the neighborhood and my dog goes to the salon across the street. I had seen the sign for Stanz but hadn't thought about going until I saw some of the other reviews on Yelp.

      I stopped in on a snowy Saturday morning. The place was pretty quiet and they were training a couple of new guys that were just starting. I ordered my breakfast.. a simple one of eggs, bacon, hash browns and a biscuit (with a side of gravy). Was delicious and my coffee never dropped below 75%full.

      I liked it so much I came back the next morning and had the Greek Hash Plate. Again, top notch and the service was aces.
