Stocked Cafe was the perfect choice for our Saturday afternoon picnic. We ordered a roast turkey sandwich, a roast beef sandwich, a side of homemade pickles, and a side of truffle Parmesan tater tots. Although I was originally craving a turkey sandwich, the standouts of the meal were the roast beef sandwich, the tots, and the pickles. The roast beef sandwich comes with arugula, beets, and a horseradish aioli that kicks this sandwich into overdrive. I was particularly impressed by how well-seasoned this sandwich was, as well as the consistency of the bread. I hope my fellow pickle lovers will enjoy how dynamic these are. There's such a balance of sweetness, salinity, and vegetal freshness. *Pro tip: dip the tater tots in the pickle juice, snag a pickle slice, and put both in your mouth together for a flavor combination that's out of this world!* I can't wait to come back to try the fried chicken sando! read more

First of all I just wanted to note how I would've been the first review of the year but guy from two hours ago beat me to it. I'm the first five star though. He didn't give five stars because the cafe didn't open around his schedule....I thought we got rid of those people in 2018. It's a cafe, calm down. Also, regardless if it's table service or counter service - you TIP!!! omg. Lord, be with us. Anyways, came in here for the first time and staff is beyond effin dope. Tom and Stephanie need a promotion because they had to deal with people like the guy who wrote the review earlier. I was welcomed with all smiles and straight up dopeness. I will return to try the food . I would've ordered but didn't want to be the asshole who ordered the last ten minutes to closing - like the couple next to me. I will definitely eat next time! Happy new year! read more

I very much enjoyed my my experience at Stocked Burger. I ordered the Bacon Me Crazy burger and it cooked to perfection. The side of tater tots was absolutely delicious - the garlic and parsley was a brilliant touch. I just had to get the vanilla milkshake as well, and it tasted like I was drinking delicious ice cream. I left the establishment very satisfied. The staff is very accommodating, welcoming, and efficient. The space is clean, has a beautiful design, and is set up very efficiently for maximum comfort. I'm definitely coming back to try another burger. read more

Stocked is superlative. It is staffed by the nicest of folks* serving the freshest of food. They put the utmost care into their food, and it shows because the sandwiches are excellent. The roast pork is the best of the bunch.* It is essentially a perfect sandwich. It is topped with the brightest of broccoli rabe, and the most flavorful of espelette, and the crispiest of provolone (not sure how that happens but it does). The grilled ciabatta seems to be the most excellent of all possible carby vehicles for the flavor combination, and I will brave the coldest of days and the most unreliable of trains for so balanced a bite. They are not the cheapest of sandwiches to be sure, but quality is worth paying for. _____________ *Although I've enjoyed the healthy and fresh turkey option, and while I appreciate the flavors of the Bacon Reuben (despite disagreeing with its classification as a reuben and my desire for more bacon), those options don't justify the high (for a small to mid-sized sandwich) price tag as easily as the pork. read more

Tony and I took a Zip car to Home Depot this weekend and got to explore areas of Brooklyn we don't get to very often. So, when it was time for lunch, we pulled out Yelp! and saw that Stocked had some good reviews. The rest of the story appears below... People on Yelp! have raved over the Stocked Capicola pork sandwich, which I ordered... and, sure, it was OKAY. However, it did not change my life. In fact, it was super oily and bland-ish. I wish I had thought to add deli mustard to the sandwich because it seriously needed some flavor help. Tony tried the fried chicken sandwich, which featured a fried patty made of ground chicken (like a crab cake but made with chicken instead of crab). He described it as tasty enough but complained of the small portion size. A few other disappointments to note: 1) Don't order diet coke is you're thirsty. It's one of those super small 8oz bottles. 2) The sandwich prices are expensive for the portion size 3) Although the restaurant is cute and modern looking inside, there is this giant kids' toy oven and kitchen set in the main dining area. What an eye sore! Oh, don't get me wrong because I love kids.... but this is the first time I've ever seen something like this in NYC. The best menu item we tried was the Tater Tots. However, these weren't that hot, which was, of course, another disappointment. Overall, I give his place 2 stars because I feel there are probably some good things about this place... and possibly I missed them. Also, the interior is inviting (except the tony kitchen set), and the staff was nice. Unfortunately, the rest just didn't add up for me. read more

Delicious burgers and fries. Friendly service and easy ordering. One of the best burger places I have been to.

Great addition to the neighborhood! Burgers are on point and we love the stocked sauce I also tried the Impossible burger - as a meat eater it really does taste like a normal burger. Delicious!! Milkshakes are yum! read more

Very active place during lunch hours. Lots of strollers. The day I went they were out of a lot of their main signature dishes. So I had to settle for their specials. The soup of the day was polenta with sweet Italian sausage. I found it lacked flavor and was a bit watery. The grilled cheese sandwich I ordered had a very thick and crispy bacon, thought the mustard sauce was a little overpowering. At our table, the best meal seemed to be the crispy chicken. sandwich with sriracha sauce. In terms of service, the staff was very friendly but I feel there was a bit of disorganization the day we were there. Like I said, many specials/ staples from the menu were missing in action. I was told 2 items I really wanted weren't available, wayyyyy after I ordered them. Nevertheless, it was a only a first visit and this place seems to have lots of potential. read more

Best roast beef sandwich in the City! Super thin sliced roast beef in a manageable stack on a ciabatto hero. Nice zing to the horseradish sauce, and the watercress adds to the flavors. read more

The absolute best sandwich option, wish we'd discovered this place years ago! Top picks on the menu (if you're a meat-eater) are the turkey sandwich and the roast beef sandwich. Trust me. The bread is fresh, the fixings are high-quality and delicious. And there's always a nice little twist...a bacon tomato jam on the turkey, beets and horseradish on the roast beef. There are plenty of veg options too. Bonus: there's a small'ish outdoor space, three picnic tables and two regular tables. On a nice day, sit back there if you can. read more

New to neighborhood but I've already been here about 3 times the past couple of weeks. Definitely splurge on the egg sandwich supreme with garlic aoli, arugula, and bacon. My to go burger is Ms Fungi. Iced chai was great and menu of beverages priced fairly for area. Nice outdoor seating, recommend in the morning. Good service every time read more

Great spot. I've enjoyed everything I've ever ordered from Stocked. Burgers, sandwiches and breakfast sandwiches (even better now served on a brioche bun) are all some of my faves in the neighborhood. Their truffle fries are the bomb. I like dipping the fries into the horseradish aioli. Deserts are inventive and pleasing. read more

I just want to rave AGAIN about their truffle tots. I went my whole life (in my 50s) and never cared for tater tots. I took a chance here last summer and so glad I did. I AM ADDICTED! their truffle tots with Horseradish aioli? is the equivalent of culinary crack! I have also had their tuna muffuletta and their veggie sandwich, both are amazing. I did try their Turkey burger once and wasn't as wowed, I feel it needed a bit more flavor, although it was well put together. but overall, I am never disappointed. read more

I had a one star experience, I don't think that stocked Burger's a one star space. The food is really good and it's hard to find good burgers that will deliver to me. The owners cared deeply about my experience, Lesley reached out to me and made herself available should I need her in the future. read more

Stocked Cafe - Sad little cold Ruben burger with no sauce and wilted lettuce. - New American Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Literally the best burger I've had in a while. Ordered it for delivery, it arrived pretty warm. It was so good I actually started the process of ordering another but they were closing and had stopped taking orders. Buy the stocked burger when ever you can, it's absolutely worth it! read more

Stocked burger wasn't bad; nothing to write home about but I had a burger and a hotdog. But we're good if on the small side based on the price. read more

It's a really solid burger. Unless you're the type of dude who "feels bad about writing a bad review" but "has to do it" because the burger you ordered and were 20 minutes late to pick up was missing bacon and for some reason you couldn't be normal and eat it anyway like the rest of us because the missing bacon somehow irked you enough that you decided it was worth sabotaging someone's genuine effort to start a small business in order to make a point no one cares about because you have nothing else going on in your life. If you're that type of dude, you might have an issue. If you're a normal human being though, the place is bomb. read more

This is a cute cafe on Vanderbilt. They've got fresh soups, salads, sandwiches, breakfast and some vegetarian options. They've got tea and lattes too. I really enjoyed the food I had here, location is convenient and it wasn't overly crowded. The reason it didn't get 5 stars is because it is a little pricey, but I'd like to believe it's because of the quality of ingredients ? Nice option in the neighborhood. read more

I was planning on writing a positive review for this place... I placed a pick up order and the customer service over the phone was a bit lacking. I hate to be this guy but I work in restaurants myself as a server and I know that at least pretending to be in a good mood is standard. The man on the phone was extremely flat and a bit grumpy. That's fine, though. I totally get it. I arrived super late to pick up my food! I felt bad and I said to myself "I should leave them a positive Yelp review bc they held onto my food for me" I was maybe 20 mins later than I should have been. Nothing crazy. The guy behind the counter gave me a bit of crap about being late... to pick up food that I'm paying for but I understand he wants the customer to enjoy "the product". Anyway, I tipped him, said thanks and headed home. The burger was so good! BUT it was missing the bacon I asked for. I called to let them know and the guy said "Ok... great" and hung up! And I know he probably doesn't care at all (clearly) but I also know that as a customer service person, you gotta fake it... and not insult the person whose order you screw up. Yikes! I think what the issue is this person may only have back of house experience and dealing with customers face to face isn't for him. Oh well, won't be back. It also sucks to be treated poorly in the neighborhood I am from. read more

I ordered a couple Impossible Burgers from these guys on DoorDash. Instead of receiving two vegan burgers, I received a beef burger. A buddy of mine who's vegan unfortunately broke his diet because these guys apparently don't have the best quality control. This is probably not an issue for the majority of people who order from this joint, but if the Impossible Burger on the menu here is your calling, please double check to make sure you receive what you ordered. I complained about this issue through DoorDash and the response from both DoorDash and the restaurant was unsatisfactory. read more

The sandwiches are pretty good, and the bread in particular is delicious. However, this place is outrageously expensive for a sandwich shop in Brooklyn and the fact that sandwiches aren't accompanied by any sides whatsoever contributes to that. It's hard to get excited about a seemingly simple cafe that charges $16 for a roast beef sandwich in Brooklyn. read more

Best burgers in the neighborhood. Healthy and not so healthy options. Try the Tater Tots. Thanks read more

I enjoy the sandwiches and the baked treats from this cute cafe. Everyone is very friendly and the atmosphere is very warm and cozy. A favorite that I've tried most recently is the pumpkin muffin with chocolate chips. It was delightful and a pleasant after school treat. Highly recommend this sweet place to any one that is in the neighborhood. read more

Such a cute little brunch/lunch spot! It's a bit tight on space inside but their sandwiches are delicious and have unique ingredients -- I ordered the capicola roast pork sandwich and it was delicious! The only problem I had with it was the amount of oil in it; I took it to go and on my five minute walk home, my double wrapped sandwich had leaked oil through the wrapping & the paper bag. I ordered a cold brew coffee to go too and it hit the spot too -- flavor was great and I got the caffeine boost I so sorely needed. My whole order (sandwich & coffee) came out to around $17. A bit pricey for me overall but the quality of the ingredients seems to justify it. I'll come back after my next paycheck! ;) read more

Excellent new addition to the neighborhood! The hubby and I stopped in Friday evening for burgers, fries and shakes to-go. I immediately loved the tribute to Bob's Burgers outside and knew I was in for a treat! The smallish space is essentially the same layout as the locale's former inhabitant, Taqueria De Los Muertos, and it works. For control purposes, I elected to order the "Stocked Burger" while my spouse indulged in the "Bacon Me Crazy". The former was both hearty and flavorful. Choice fixings contribute to juice, crunch and tastiness in each bite. I did my "this is yummy, I am happy" food dance when we got the grub home. My husband enjoyed the Bacon Me Crazy burger so much that it was devoured in record time. The Chocolate Milk Shake was also a delightful surprise, not too rich or dark, reminded me of a black and white shake actually! As I grabbed a menu on my way out, the staff informed me that they'll have delivery soon. Wishing a very warm welcome to Stocked Burger! read more

Stocked Cafe - Burger - New American Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Favorite neighborhood spot for the best coffee, lunches and the nicest crowds. Tip: the little kid-sized grilled cheese is insanely good (ask for it with bacon and tomato to make it extra). The quinoa salad is also super-yummy. The staff is always friendly. Stocked has become my new favorite spot. read more

Reputedly great burgers are always a disappointment but this, bucking the rule, was among the best ever. Had it delivered tonight, along with tater tots. The tots were somewhat cold but a 400° oven revitalized them. (I suspect they may have sent the truffle tots, which cost more, but I wanted the regular.) And it was kind of late in the day for the blueberry muffin, but 50 seconds in a small, low-power microwave restored warm, soft moistness. (Only a touch of dryness remained at the bottom.) I gotta say, in the final analysis, it was an Intensely satisfying meal. I suffer not a touch of delivery remorse. read more

After the old place that occupied this residence closed down before I could drop a review, I wanted to wait till I did the same for this place. Like when I wasn't sure if I was going to renew my old apartment in college, I just felt there was curse or a ghost. Oh wait, that was my ex-girlfriend living next door...... never mind. Stocked is a great American style delicatessen. Somewhat similar to the Lincoln Station, if you live in the neighborhood. The first thing I'd like to say is the staff is super friendly. Nice group of people. I hope this place stays open! They have lots of tasty sandwiches to choose from. My favorite is their Capicola style Roast Pork, broccoli rabe & provolone! Amazing! I've also tried some other tasty dishes of theirs. The meatballs and turkey meatloaf are both spot on. I however did not care for the macaroni & cheese muffins. It was just odd, it was baked but not the way I like my mac & cheese baked, then didn't have the payoff of a cheesy inside. This is a great spot if you feel like grabbing a bite, walking down Vanderbilt ave. read more

Excellent, excellent burger. I've been here many times, both pre- and post-COVID and the burger is phenomenal. There are times where I end up ordering two burgers because they're that good. Their tater tots come hot and crispy, even when delivered, and are delicious would highly, highly recommend :) read more

Finally. I avoided Stocked Cafe for such a long time. Loved the atmosphere, and style of the decor. The menu is really terrific, so many fantastic choices, I had to go with Kale Salad, and it was outstanding. And also, the service was great and the staff was really friendly. Love, love, love. read more

The burgers are absolutely delicious, they are juicy , spicy and there are plenty of cheese, toppings, and sauces to list , and they seem to have a strong focus on procuring quality ingredients, so I'd recommend getting whatever you think would go well on your ideal burger. My food came out extremely fresh and delicious. Knowing everything I was eating was made from high quality ingredients meant I could walk out feeling full and happy. Overall I really did enjoy the burger and love that they have so many options and desserts! read more

Greeting- yes Vibe- coffee house Price- a little expensive Bathroom- failure. Only a single unit Service- cool Parking- street Food BLAT- very good. Would have been excellent if it had two slices of bacon instead of one for $13! Excellent toasted bread great a Aoli, bacon was thick slab cut. The lettuce and tomato were garden fresh. delicious Tater tots- not good. Frozen and refried WIGB? Maybe Four stars for sandwich read more

Alway fresh food. The Turkey burger is good and fries are always fresh and good. Fries are a little pricey for a side of fries. I would eat here again. read more

The rating is just based on service. I'm sitting in Stocked waiting for our food. I'm excited to try it and excited this new spot is closer to us since we love the original stocked. My question is how is there only two people working in such a large place? They look super stressed and I feel bad for them. We have been waiting for a while but it's not really their fault it's whoever decided two people were enough to manage the cooking and orders. Oops food came and it's gonna still be 3 stars, great idea and great place but our burgers were over cooked and buns burnt sadly. Would prob be very good if not for that. Again not the their fault they look like they had a lot of things to worry about while cooking (making multiple shakes, fries, etc) read more

Excellent food and amazing service! The veggie delight sandwich is a dream. Will definitely be ordering again!

I came here for lunch one afternoon. Stocked is an American style place with some tasty menu dishes especially with the sandwiches. I wanted to try them all since they all sounded delicious. When I first walked in, the staff was super friendly and very welcoming. I ordered the Capicola Style Roast Pork, melt provolone, d'espelette pepper, broccoli rabe sandwich. This was a delicious sandwich. The roast pork was moist, flavorful, juicy, and not fatty. Plenty of broccoli rabe. The bread was nicely toasted. Almost seem like a healthy sandwich. I also ordered a Mac & Cheese Muffin. Very unique way of eating Mac & Cheese. Wasn't a big fan of it though. It just didn't have enough cheese in it. I will give them creativity points for it. Neat little spot to grab some lunch. Simple menu. Try out their sandwiches. Friendly staff. Apparently they do sing alongs on Monday and Wednesday. read more

I came to Stocked looking for a good, above average sandwich for lunch the other day. Their menu is relatively small, offering a number of classics with a bougey twist, as well as a few vegetarian options including a cauliflower steak sandwich and an eggplant sandwich. I went for the house-made roast turkey w/ bacon aioli, tomato jam, and arugula, on a grilled baguette. Holy. Jeebus. It was AMAZING. I was not expecting, nor prepared to eat one of the best sandwiches of my LIFE. It was a perfect marriage of ingredients; all complimenting one another and none of them out-shining the others. Kind of like the cast of Friends! It's not cheap, but you get what you pay for. The roast turkey was $11 and I'm pretty sure the baguette it came on was at least 12-inches long. If you're small like me, you can save half of it for dinner :) I did some quick reading on Stocked before coming and it looks to be family owned. The service is friendly, casual, and quick. They had some children's toys in the back, so they must be catering to the family crowd. Oh and there's free wifi. In addition to sandwiches, they offer a few salads, a full coffee/espresso menu, and a number of breakfast items including homemade muffins, scones, and sandwiches that I must come back to try ASAP. read more

Something about this places name and look really made me want to hate it. This wasn't helped much by the fact that one of my first visits coincided with some sort of nightmarish yuppie mommy and me singalong. Once I relented and tried the food however, I was instantly a fan. The hype on this site about the capicola style roast pork is fully legitimate, and it ranks among the boroughs best sandwiches. The pork is cooked in a manner that gives it both a fast and consistency as decadent and delicious as really amazing bacon, with the perfect amount of bitter broccoli raab giving its saltiness the perfect counterbalance. Also a fan of the seeming perennial 'special" crispy chicken sandwich, a singular concoction of seemingly ground white breast meat topped with a panko-like coating, which somehow reminds me of a really refined, elevated version of an Burger King "Italian" chicken sandwich from the recesses of my childhood memories. Beyond sandwiches, soups have uniformly been very good and one in particular,; polenta with sweet italian sausage and kale, is exemplary. They have my favorite breakfast treats in the hood; a variety of stuffings like bacon egg and cheese or egg with broccoli raab and sausage are offered inside delicious pastry crusts in the 5 dollar breakfast empanadas. I have only sampled one piece of the Saturday only special of the fried chicken, apparently prepared in a very unique and labor intensive manner the establishment encourages you to inquire about. While I must say the breast was perhaps the smallest I have ever eaten. it was really really good and I keep meaning to try both more of that and the rotisserie chickens offered. Staff is uniformly good and occasionally excellent, and the prices are a tad more reasonable, and food considerably better and more consistent than the similar Lincoln Station, pn the other side of the neighborhood, and I'd probably come here more often than there were it not for the fact that they are closer to me, open far later,and serve cheap beers. read more

Went for a Friday lunch - not crowded at noon. Counter staff and cooks were friendly and answered questions; even wrapping my sandwich when I was finished. I ordered the Capicola roast pork with provolone and broccoli rabe. It came off the griddle so fresh, steam arose on each bite I took. Good portion of meat, everything tasted fresh and not too greasy. They have water glasses and water for free. Seating is a long bench with small tables and chairs for two along it with one bigger table in the back and outdoor seating in the back patio. Kitchen is open so if you sit near it, your clothes will smell like the kitchen for a little bit. Good casual lunch spot, a tad pricey for sandwiches. read more
