What Makes Stacked Special?

It’s more than just the mouthwatering food — it’s the atmosphere, the attention to detail, and their commitment to customer satisfaction.

Stacked prides itself on using fresh, locally sourced ingredients wherever possible. This commitment to quality is evident in the flavours of their dishes, which are both comforting and elevated at the same time. Mehra notes, “Some of Foodbuy’s partnerships focus on sourcing from local and regional suppliers, which can help support local economies and reduce the environmental impact of long-distance transportation.”

Foodbuy vendor programs that Stacked utilizes are:

• Pepsi – Refreshing, beverages that complement their delicious breakfast offerings.
• Canada Bread – Ensures high-quality, fresh, and delicious buns and bread that elevate the overall dining experience.
• Canadian Linen – Enhances the comfort and cleanliness of the dining experience.
• 511 Food Service – Streamlines operations with reliable disposable products, convenient for both staff and customers.
• Leadbetter – Guarantees premium-quality meats and sustainable sourcing, enhancing the flavour and integrity of every dish served.
• Solina Foods – Brings exceptional sauces and culinary solutions, elevating the taste and consistency of every dish.

Mehra adds, “Foodbuy handles relationships with suppliers, allowing businesses to focus more on their operations rather than managing multiple vendors.” In addition to this support, “They offer detailed reporting, helping track spending and better manage budgets.”

Stacked is not just a place to eat—it’s a place to relax, enjoy great food, and make lasting memories. Repeat customers are a testament to the exceptional service and great food that consistently impresses and surprises tastes buds with the creative twists they add to their dishes.

Strategies for Attracting and Retaining Customers

In an ever-competitive brunch market, Stacked has employed a few key strategies to keep customers coming back for more.

• Social & Digital Presence: In today’s digital age, social media plays a crucial role in attracting new customers. Stacked leverages platforms like Instagram and Facebook to showcase mouthwatering photos of their dishes, share their special promotions, and engage with their audience on a regular basis.
• Seasonal Menus and Limited-Time Offers: One of the most successful strategies that Stacked uses is the introduction of seasonal menu items and limited-time offers at an accessible price point for all to enjoy.
• Menu Innovation: Fresh takes, creative twists. That is what the dishes at Stacked ladder up to. Adding creativity and innovation to everything that is served is core to who Stacked is and how they stand out.

Stacked has solidified its place as a beloved brunch destination by offering a standout menu and exceptional customer service. From indulgent pancakes to scrumptious breakfast and lunch items and refreshing drinks, it’s clear why customers keep coming back for more.

Mehra concludes with how being a Foodbuy member has helped with their operations, “Foodbuy services streamline our food procurement process, providing cost savings and rebates, making them beneficial for Stacked as we’re looking to optimize our food-related purchasing and operations.” They have helped in a unique way, “By consolidating purchasing from various businesses, enabling bulk buying and thus lowering prices due to economies of scale. This results in significant cost savings for businesses that buy food and supplies in large quantities.”
