Bar Stella

The brainchild of prolific local restaurateurs Blair Voth Miller, Brad Miller, and Cole Dobranski, Bar Stella delivers on their promise of unfussy Italian fare. Located within a historic, three-level building (the onetime home of Drift Cafe), the restaurant boasts a casual, ground-floor café space and inviting upper-floor dining rooms that offer an elevated ambiance and fantastic views of the vibrant Riversdale neighbourhood.

Standout menu items include their Classic Gnocchi, Bruschetta topped with burrata cheese, and mouthwatering Mozza Sticks that are hand-breaded in-house. Known for their generous portions, the beloved local eatery is a great spot to pop in for after-work drinks and an appetizer. Or spend an evening with friends at an upstairs table overlooking Market Square. Just make sure to order extra Tiramisu — trust us, you won’t want to share!
