It feels rough to give the place only 4 stars (4.5 would have been better), but unfortunately I can’t confidently give it 5 stars. Service was great, we got a table for a large party quickly, food came out fast, though that’s where the quality dropped slightly. Presentation of the food was okay, not bad at all. But we honestly expected more in terms of taste/quality of the food. I really think it comes down to there being A LOT of menu items, as opposed to focusing on less but improved options. So food was only “okay”, and that’s considering that we had 8 people try different menu items and no one thought anything was “great”. We would definitely be back, but not one of those places we go out of our way for.
Thank God for Mattie our waitress at the counter. She was so amazing. I had not realized that I had not taken in enough calories and was going down for the count by the time I got to her. She swiftly moved into action and got me an apple juice and made sure that our order was placed. Swiftly eggs came out delicious bread biscuit came out delicious everything was amazing and my day was safe thanks to Maddie.
Wonderful atmosphere! The food was delicious, especially the Plume Street Breakfast with bacon and a rosemary biscuit. The seasonal jelly was amazing and is made fresh in house. Lastly, even on a chilly day the iced Caramel vanilla coffee was perfect. Thank you for keeping my husband and I well fed while on vacation.
Incredible! Highly Recommend Norfolk, VA The Stockpot at 215 E Plume St. Wonderful outdoor views too. Unique experience due to singular taste of food & coffee & the servers, Lauren & Julie. Lauren took my order & Julie came by my table to check on me-both so personable & helpful! I asked Lauren for order suggestions & she really knows the menu! Next visit, trying one of your desserts! Thank you!
It's all very fresh and innovative. I had a gluten free bowl with pork carnitas, greens, pico, avocado, beans, corn, and tortilla strips. It has just a little kick to it from a sauce, not overpowering, just enough. My partner had the Belgian waffles with their freshly made sausage patty. No complaints there! And she can be picky. 😂 The servers were very nice and helpful. They sell t-shirts and sweatshirt that, if we had more time (we are traveling through and only found them via a Google search) I would have for sure checked out. I would have went home with one! And, it is a cute place inside of an artsy indoor plaza. We didn't have time to investigate the shops. I did notice small bistro tables down the center with a chess set, art supplies, and such for the public to entertain themselves. It all added to the overall vibe. One cool thing to add is The Stockpot seems to select one menu item to donate a portion of sales from to a charity. The selection changes. It was huevos rancheros this time.
