Coca Café

I got the breakfast sandwich and a salted caramel latte. Both were very good! The breakfast sandwich was a lot of food and very flavorful. The other people I dined with had an omelette (where one side of it was very salty) and the grilled cheese which she enjoyed. The service was great also!

Another fantastic brunch from here! Worth the wait for sure! Highly recommend coming here for brunch! And to the party of 5 with the attitude there was no need for that it's a holiday weekend so there is gonna be a wait everywhere! No need to bad mouth a place that is packed! Dont like it you could of went elsewhere! I will make a huge recommendation though get the no wait app to reserve a table!

It's a cool place inside. My vanilla latte tasted good. I had the avocado omelet which was average. The iced latte is thick and almost undrinkable. Huevos ranchos on grits were not very good. The service was good. But overall, the food and drinks are not worth the price.

What a terrific find! This is such a charming little restaurant. I love how it is doing the right thing without being pretentious about it. The menu is seasonal and locally sourced. The food is so tasty, you're going to want to come back at least twice a season to see what's on offer. We started with the donut holes. Why would we start with the donut holes? Because they're on the appetizer list. And they belong there. Imagine cutting into a crispy, crunchy, chocolate donut hole dusted with confectioners sugar and then swooshing it through a perfectly wonderful caramel sauce and popping it in your mouth. Yes, yes! This is the way to start your weekend. Combine that with a lovely little brunch cocktail and I think you're on your way to Happy Town. My friend had the Crab Risotto with kale and corn. It was topped with two obviously local, fresh sunny side up eggs. (You can always tell by the rich color of the yolk.) The eggs were cooked expertly and when cut into added to the wonderful creaminess of the risotto. It was creamy without being heavy. the drizzle of balsamic vinegar gave it the wonderful light note. I had a variation on the Eggs Benedict. The Lemon Dill Hollandaise sauce is an incredible recipe. Whoever the chef is that created this is a genius. Eggs are hard to poach. These were poached almost to perfection. To be absolutely fair, personal taste does play a role here. My eggs just had a hint of runniness. I prefer my poached eggs to be removed almost exactly as the yolk sets. It didn't change the fact that this is a delightful way to begin a day. The version I ordered came topped with some chorizo, incredible maple bacon, charred tomatoes. I opted for the side salad which was absolutely the right choice. The brightness of the vinaigrette dressing helped offset what could potentially have been a little heavy. (As nice as those breakfast potatoes looked, I didn't need them.) We left the restaurant feeling light, energetic, and happy. We are excited to return and try new things before the summer ends. The summer menu just is incredible. We look forward to returning again in the fall to see what's on the new menu. This is a Black friendly restaurant. There were no microaggressions. The staff seemed genuinely excited to see us. And the service was excellent.

I've been hear a few times and Coca Cafe has always underwhelmed me. While the food is tasty, the menu doesn't offer a lot of options and their brunch options are overcrowded with too many hashes - I wished for a bit more diversity. The brunch cocktails are delicious however, even if they take a very long time to arrive. When the weather is nice, I suggest sitting outside since the inside of the cafe lacks a welcoming atmosphere and the chairs are quite uncomfortable.

I enjoy trying local spots when I visit new places. As a vegan, I look for restaurants that have thoughtful menu options for us, not just “hold the cheese.” Coca Café fits that bill. I had the tofu scramble with avocado mash and breakfast potatoes. It was flavorful and filling! The coffee is strong and your cup never empties. They also have fresh juices that you can add alcohol to. I had an orange/carrot/basil blend with vodka and it was so good! I would definitely come back next time I’m in Pittsburgh.

Went for the first time during off hours on weekday, and it was fantastic. I had the avocado omelet, and it was awesome. Amazing food, huge portions, great service, and nice atmosphere. Definitely would go back again!

Great brunch food! Weekends are super busy so I usually only go on the occasional weekday, when it's much emptier.

Great brunch food! Weekends are super busy so I usually only go on the occasional weekday, when it's much emptier.

Got there around 11 on a Thursday morning. Had a roughly 25 minute wait, but the weather was great and we were able to wait outside. The staff was friendly and accommodating considering we had 3 adults and 2 children (one being a baby). The food: delightful!! I got the eggs, sausage and potatoes. Those potatoes may have been the best home fries I've had. Also got pancakes which I was not expecting to be so thick, but wow they were great. We'll be back next time we're in Pittsburgh!

The food was absolutely delicious. The spicy bloody mary? Delectable. We each had 2. This joint is VERY VERY busy. I mean, insane. We put our phone number in to wait. We were told it would be 45-1hour. No biggie. We walked around our old stomping grounds in lawrenceville. It has been 45 min so we walked back. No one had called yet but my friend checked in regardless. The gentleman told us, we were up soon and would give us a text/call when they were ready. 30 min, and many other people arrived and were seated. We checked back. He says I called you, you didn't answer. She shows her cell, no missed calls. He pulls out their phone to try and prove he called, her number is not on there. No worries, we were seated. They closed about an hour after we were seated and we did feel a bit rushed ordering food and drinks as they seemed to be awaiting the ability to close. I would 100% go back but I would note this place is DEFINITELY not good for groups of any more than 4. Idealls just 2 to be honest.

The Nook is a cute little breakfast spot right in the heart of Lawrenceville. They are best known for their variations on a classic eggs benedict - my favorites are the florentine & the mexican. On nice days, the outdoor back patio is the best place to sit (the inside can feel a little crowded). The Nook also has a good drink menu, featuring creative mimosas & a full coffee counter. The only downside is that there is often a long wait if you arrive later in the morning (even at 10:00 there was a 30 minute wait for a table!), so either get there early or prepare for a wait. Once seated, however, service is pretty quick! I would recommend this spot for a casual breakfast. Food: B+ Drinks: B+ Service: B Ambiance: B-

What a cute little spot to grab a quick bite for brunch. Although I've seen it rookie post that there was a wait, my friend and I went after yoga a Phipps on a Saturday morning, and we were seated right away. We had the fluffy pistachio paste pancakes, lattes, and the Southern Eggs Benedict. Everything was delicious, and they should really consider bottling that pistachio paste! Prices were fair, too.

Absolutely delicious brunch!!! We had a 45 minute wait on a Sunday morning, which I thought was not too bad for a place that doesn't take reservations on the weekends! I had the pineapple mimosa which was delicious! The raspberry French toast was calling my name and absolutely delivered. SO good and would highly recommend. Also cannot recommend the home fries enough. They are seasoned so well and perfectly crisp. You have to check this place out, the menu is huge and has something for everyone whether you want sweet or savory, or breakfast or lunch!

Food: 3/5 eggs Benedict had hard yolks food was average Service: excellent we even brought out two kids both under 3 and they were still super kind. Ambiance: 4.5/5 only reason -.5 is because it was SO hot inside.

Food: I had a burger that really hit the spot in that moment. French fries were mid but the quality of the burger made up for it Drinks: Solid lineup of different cocktails that they offer for brunch Service: I had excellent service. Quick and accommodating. Ambiance: Cool little place in Lawrenceville with a great vibe as a whole. Overall: I will be back for sure. A great place to meet up with friends or stop after an overnight shift.

This might be the best breakfast in Pittsburgh! Seriously, we dine out often and this was our first time at Nook. Not too sure why, maybe because it always looked so busy? Anyways, it was only a 25 minute wait on a Saturday at 11am. Una is close by (plant/occult shop & amazing body butter) if you have to wait. Now back to The Nook: It is everything and more. Diner vibes with awesome staff. From the host to waiter/food runners, everyone was so friendly. The food was a 10/10. We had an omelette, egg Benedict, and the green thing(pancakes with pistachio paste)! The pancakes are undeniably the best I've ever had in my life. They are light, fluffy, doughy, it's honestly indescribable! They were so good we ubered two orders the next morning lol! The coffee was very good (not always the case) and the London fog was a 10/10! I highly recommend and this will be a staple for us moving forward!l

One of the best places to get brunch in the Burgh. Huge menu with cool different twists. Something for everyone. And the standard breakfast food is elevated. This time I had the French toast with bananas and strawberries. Obsessed with the whipped cream-you can tell they make it there. Not overly sweet like some places. I don't remember my husband's order but the pancakes that came on the side were an entire meal in themselves. We will be back soon!

Went to The Nook for my birthday and had such a good breakfast! We had a 30 minute wait for 2 on a Saturday morning (which is no big deal, bop around Butler street if you gotta!) and got a text when our table was ready, and when we were sat down the service was quick and really friendly. We got the classic benedict, pancake trio, and the waffles with pistachio paste. The crispy potatoes were really good, I thought the classic eggs Benedict were perfectly standard. Not my go to - but good if that's your jam. I'd be interested to try one of the other eggs Benedict dishes on the menu. We added bacon which was the only disappointment as it was floppy and not worth the upcharge. The pancakes were my fave! They're perfectly fluffy and huge. I ditched the salted caramel and went with the maple syrup and was happy as a clam. The waffle was also fluffy and delicious. This was my first time trying pistachio paste and it was really really sweet, definitely didn't need to add any syrup or anything. The bananas went really well with it. The space was lively with people talking and enjoying their meals which felt really nice. I'd love to come back.

I very rarely venture into the city. I can say hands down this was one of the best brunches I have ever had.

Cute coffee shop with tons of art on the wall. We ordered a mocha café with a shot of caramel and an eggs Benedict. It was okay, nothing that made me salivate. The ambience was the most interesting thing.

Both our girls went to the University of Pittsburgh, so we've been coming to the city for seven (plus) years now...and we FINALLY found our favorite breakfast / brunch spot!!! On a recent weekend, a group of six of us met up at this cute little space, where we were immediately seated in a corner booth for just for us! The staff here is incredibly gregarious and friendly, clearly enjoying each other and the work they were doing. Everybody ordered their favorite coffee, tea and cocktail choices and we got heads down into the menu. Soooo many choices, so little time. I think all of us ordered unique dishes, so we had lots to sample from. Favorites included the eggs benedicts (the Florentine and Mexican versions were the best, IMO), challah French toast and Nutella pancakes. Also, cannot forget to shout out those breakfast potatoes...so crispy outside and pillowy inside with a great seasoning and crunch to them. No one left the table hungry...only thig better would have been a pillow and blankey to lay down and nap from the food come we were all in. Only a few more months of schooling left for daughter number two, so we cannot wait to get back to town and sample from this menu once again!

Adorable little breakfast/brunch spot with a great menu and reasonable prices! I ordered the green thing pancakes (pancakes with banana and a pistachio sauce which definitely had a white chocolate base) and they were tasty, filling and it too sweet. I added a side of scrambled eggs which were great but definitely not needed because the pancakes were very filling I also got a latte (just regular without flavor) and it was so good! I would definitely come back and try another pancake/French toast/waffle option.

This is a really good little breakfast/brunch spot. It's in a convenient part of Lawrenceville where I have often found parking nearby, which is no small feat. The inside is larger than you would think, with a second room of seating behind the first room where you enter, but also not quite as large as they need during peak times -- for example, today, I saw a larger party come in and turn around to leave when there wasn't enough room to immediately accommodate them. Service is super friendly and food comes up quick for how crowded it can get here. It is adorably and eclectically decorated with little paper hot air balloons, butterflies and vinyl records along the front of the barista bar. Very Instagrammable, including the interactive hot air balloon mural on the side of the building. As for the food, there are so many delicious options here. They are known for their many varieties of eggs Benedict. I like to get the Eggs-uberance, which comes with two eggs any way, breakfast potatoes, your choice of breakfast meat and two deliciously fluffy pancakes. The pancakes come with a little dollops of fresh whipped cream that make them like dessert, and this dish overall perfectly satisfies any issue you might have with choosing between sweet and savory options. You're also going to take at least half of it home because it's an incredible amount of food, no matter how hungry you think you are. I really appreciate that they have veggie chorizo on the menu as a vegetarian/vegan protein option. They have a nice selection of cocktails, coffees and, on a wintery day like today in particular, I can't pass up the decadent hot chocolate with Nutella. Lots of sweet options on the menu, too, like fancy pancakes and waffles, though I am more of a savory breakfast person. There is something for everyone in your party here and the cost is reasonable, with a typical breakfast running between $12 and $15.

Cute brunch spot in Lawrenceville! This place has a really fun colorful interior, and the food is really tasty as well. Lots of classic American brunch options. It's pretty popular so there's usually a long wait on popular brunch days so just be prepared for that. But there are tons of shops and streets to walk around while you wait! My only gripe is that the portions are pretty small for the price -- the benedict plate I got was mostly side potatoes.

I can see why The Nook is so popular! If you go on a Saturday morning, be ready to put your name in and have a bit of a wait for the table. But, there's so many fun boutiques in Lawrenceville it's easy to stay entertained while you wait. We were seated in about 45 minutes, but once we were at our table the staff quickly got our drink orders which I feel like we got back before I even got a menu! They have extensive coffee and boozy brunch options that fit everyone in the group. I had the southern Benedict and it was absolutely delicious. They had savory and sweet, heavy and light breakfast options so I would definitely recommend for an indecisive group. It's a bright, lively space that's a perfect, bustling spot for your weekend brunch!

Wonderful time enjoying breakfast to go from the nook! The restaurant had nice decor and lots of lighting. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. They went above and beyond with their service. Despite ordering to go, they showed us to a table where we were able to wait. They also gave us water and checked in on us. Someone in our party forgot to request no cheese on their sandwich and told the staff later and they were kind enough to remake the sandwich! Truly outstanding service. The breakfast sandwich and French fries were very delicious! This is a great spot for breakfast.

My daughter recommended this place and it was an outstanding breakfast/brunch with both my kids!!! Located in the Lower Lawrenceville neighborhood of Pittsburgh, The Nook is a cozy and inviting restaurant that serves up delicious breakfast and brunch dishes and with a creative twist. It's a popular spot for locals and visitors who want to enjoy a creative and wholesome meal in an inviting, warm, busy and friendly atmosphere. Their menu features a variety of options that appeal to a big variety of different tastes and preferences. Whether you are in the mood for a classic breakfast, a hearty sandwich, a fresh salad, or a special waffle, they've got something for you. Some of the most popular dishes include a surprising Southern Benedict, which has two poached eggs on top of buttermilk biscuits with sausage gravy and bacon, yep that's southern. There's Eggs Florentine, and the Chicken and Waffles. They also offer vegan and gluten-free options, like the Vegan Chorizo, (no thank you) as well as the Gluten-Free Pancakes, that's are made with rice flour. The Nook's drinks menu is equally impressive, with hot and cold beverages that complement the food. You can choose from coffee, which is not bad at all, tea, juice, smoothies, milkshakes, or alcoholic drinks like a mimosa, bloody mary, or beer. The Nook also has some specialty drinks that are worth trying, such as the Nutella Hot Chocolate, which I need to try, and the Lavender Lemonade, which is an aromatic lemonade infused with lavender and #1 daughter's fave. The ambiance is warm and welcoming, with a rustic but modern decor that lives up to the name The Nook. it's relatively small but comfortable dining area that can comfortably accommodate up to 40 people. The tables are wooden and cozy, with flowers and candles that add to the charm. Now onto the food, I went with the Eggsuberant which is a classic combo of great breakfast faves with a waffle sub, it was all good and I'd have it again. #1 son & daughter went with the Southwest Sunrise omelette and the Nook Burger. Everything was hot, well prepared and seasoned just right and that made us a very happy family trio. The Nook is open from Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM, and from Saturday to Sunday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. You can make reservations online through their website or by calling their phone number. You can also order food online through Uber Eats if you prefer to enjoy eat at home or at work. Bottom line: The Nook's motto is "food forward meets fresh", that means high-quality ingredients for dishes that are innovative and delicious. If you are looking for a place to have breakfast or brunch in Pittsburgh, you should definitely check out The Nook. Highly recommended!!! https://www.nookpgh.com/

Perfect little breakfast spot, quaint, great service and ambience. The food was amazingly tasty and I'm in love with a good pancake...it was excellent. The eggs were moist, tasty Turkey, fluffy cake and gourmet coffee. I was in a hurry and asked for food on the fly and they accommodated!!! I appreciated the level of detail and service.

Solid breakfast the other day here at The Nook. We had a bit of trouble as we seriously pined for Coca Cafe - which occupied this lovely space originally. But this is a respectable replacement. Kept the kitschy, eclectic interior only a little less vintage fun. Service was fast & efficient. My husband had a fantastic waffle - perfect outer crunch/inner moist/vanilla tastiness - topped with fresh strawberries & Nutella. The decadent fresh whipped cream was a bit too much for me - but my husband LOVED it. My dish was pretty boring in comparison: the breakfast sandwich. The overall flavor was good - tho the 2 tiny pieces of bacon looked so sad on top of the scrambled egg & havarti! The ciabatta they used for the sandwich was quite fresh - but too much bread for me. I removed the bottom piece. The home fries were quite good - perfectly spiced. They were more like totts that home fries, IMO - as I normally think of the latter as having onions &/or peppers. ‍ No special beverages. All in all - a good breakfast. We'll be back. Love that lower part of Lawrenceville.

Really enjoyed the waffles! Would recommend. Sweet, but not overly sweet! Be prepared to wait. You can check out cute shops while you're waiting for table.

I got the chicken and waffles and it was sooooo good. I'm personally more of a pancake person but the waffles were airy and crispy so it different than other waffles I've had. The chicken was nice and crunchy and not super dry. The potatoes were also crunchy and soft on the inside. This place had really nice decorations and was colorful but not too overwhelming. I saw some positive reviews and this was the first time my friends and I went here. The service was great but we did have to wait a bit for our food since it was a bit busy. Regardless, we were super glad we tried this place out!

I got the Mixed Berries Pancakes and they were SO fluffy and delicious. I also ordered a latte with lavender and definitely enjoyed their espresso. I went with a party of five and had about a 40 minute wait on Saturday around 11am. The wait staff were polite and the wait for our food was only ~15-20 minutes. The restaurant itself was so cute, and I loved the art hanging from the walls.

I didn't know I needed Nutella hot chocolate in my life until I went here. I attempted coming here on a weekend and it was absolutely packed and I didn't want to wait so I came back on a weekday and it was much less crowded. The service was so friendly, sweet, and attentive. The Benedicts were delicious although the poached eggs were not runny. I love that they had veggie chorizo as an option!

I would say this place just met our expectations. It's a cozy spot and the service is top notch. The eggs were undercooked on the Benedict and the sauce was overly vinegary.

After a speedy 24 hours in Pittsburgh, I stopped at The Nook for breakfast before my flight. It was a quick walk from my hotel in a cute, hip neighborhood. The inside is tiny but homey and had plenty of people grabbing breakfast on Sunday morning. I got a table right away and the service was fast. I ordered the breakfast platter with turkey sausage, scrambled eggs, home fries, and gluten free toast. I also got the lavender latte and a mimosa. The gluten free toast was surprisingly very good! The server was nice enough to also make sure I was OK with the fact that the home fries were not technically gluten free since they shared a fryer with other food. I really appreciated that extra precaution for my celiac fam out there (I feel for ya'll). I cleaned my plate pretty quickly and sipped on my delish mimosa. I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for breakfast in Pittsburgh! I saw quite a few tables with some amazing looking waffles too so maybe give that a try if that's up your alley.

The Nook in Lawrenceville is amazing. They do not take reservation so be sure to get there early or be prepared to wait a little. They serve amazing breakfast and lunch options! For the chicken and waffles with a side of fruit and absolutely loved it!

I love the Nook! I've been a few times & it's always delicious. Definitely busy on the weekends so jump on the waitlist or get there early if you can. My most recent visit was during the week and I was seated immediately. I got the bananas froster pancakes with a side of bacon. Those pancakes were so good, I'm still thinking about them. They're not like regular pancakes, they're thick and fluffy and delightful. Always a good brunch spot, especially if you're looking for somewhere boozy!

The ambiance was a little small and cozy, I loved all the little decorations. Service wasn't nothing spectacular but nonetheless still good. Definitely recommend getting the french toast if you got a sweet tooth. These was for sure my top spot for potatoes though. I looooved how crispy they were. It was a little pricey but definitely worth the trip.

The vibes were cute I loved the decor. The food was very basic and nothing really stood out to me. The pancakes were very thick and fluffy though. Little pricey for what it is.

Love finding new breakfast/brunch spots in Pittsburgh and this is a favorite! The inside is small but cozy and the staff are all really nice and attentive. The menu has an excellent variety of both sweet and savory items; we got the waffle eggs Benedict and the Nutella pancakes (which were unbelievably thick and fluffy). The cocktails are delicious too. We tried the pineapple mimosa and espresso martini. Definitely better to go earlier in the morning than later because this place gets packed and wait times are sometimes long.

My husband and I stopped here for brunch one Saturday since we live fairly close. There was a 40 minute wait which was very understandable considering the name "the nook" it is a small location! We walked around for a while and ventured to Brooklyn Bagels for a coffee while we were waiting. This is a very small intimate setting, tables are close so if that is not your vibe this is not the place for you! We have young children so we're used to not having a ton of room! Our waiter was friendly and attentive. We both ordered omelettes, my husband ordered a meat lovers one and i ordered a build your own style. The omelettes were huge! And everything inside was cooked to perfection. The home fries were also delicious and crispy. I also ordered the corn fritters for the table and they were delicious! Spicy, cheesy, and the dip that came with them was a perfect compliment to the potatoes. I also had a lavender tea that was served hot and extremely aromatic. Overall a great experience especially on a nice day In Lawrenceville where you can easily stroll around while you are waiting for your table to become available.

Fun breakfast spot in Lawrence with some perfectly poached eggs. I ordered one of their eggs benedict, Turkish Connection, and it was fantastic. The portion size was nice too. The only downside for me was the cappuccino. It was very acidic and a turn off. But overall, I enjoyed my meal.

My friend and I were both off on a Friday, so we decided to check out The Nook for brunch. It's usually a long wait to dine here so we hoped it would be easier to get in on a weekday. Luckily we arrived around 11:45 and were able to be seated right away. The space itself is super eccentric and fun. My friend ordered the veggie omelet and I ordered the waffle eggs Benedict. We both agreed that the food was so good! I'm happy we were able to get in here to check out The Nook! I would definitely love to come back!

Really cool vibe, and it translates into cool food too. Delicious coffees and great waffles and benedicts. I wish they had real maple syrup!

As a party of 6 we dined at The Nook on Mother's Day. We were seated shortly after all arriving. The was a 10/10 experience. As stated in the name it is a small location but the ambience is so cool. So cooly decorated. We ordered brunch and had a variety of things from the menu. I ordered the Bbq Pulled Pork Waffle and home fries. This was a really good sandwich and I really liked the home fries. Crunch my and nicely seasoned. I also had the espresso martini. It was very strong but made with very nice espresso. Can't wait to eat here again

The food was mediocre at best. My husband who eats almost anything, ate 3 bites of his breakfast sandwich & a few fries. The chicken and waffles was ok but tasted like the oil they cook the food in needed changed, had a weird flavor. The saving grace was the home fries.

This is a nice breakfast place you can come to on the weekday or the weekend. There are plenty of tables and good service. There are a good amount of breakfast options with tons of your favorite sweets including French toast, waffles and pancakes. We enjoyed our pancakes over the French toast. The French toast was good but the pancakes were just so airy and sweet - my husband said they were some of his favorite pancakes. As far as savory goes, the vegetarian cubano chorizo is delicious and filling. Plus the homfries on point

Have to add this to the list of must stops in Pittsburgh. Amazing breakfast! Small wait because it is very popular but worth the wait. Mainly a breakfast place but some lunch. Southern Benedict's was fantastic.

Best brunch place!!!! I had the Turkish connection and banana pistachio waffle. AMAZING. The Turkish connection has eggs Benedict served over Turkish sausage and a muffin- perfect for a savory breakfast. The banana pistachio waffle is perfect- not overly sweet- and has this delicious pistachio cream drizzle over it. There's typically a 20-30 minute wait during peak brunch hours but there's a lot of shops nearby to keep yourselves occupied. Great seating and look above to see some cool hot air balloon lanterns!

Cute place with fun decor and excellent food! Had the Eggs Benedict Florentine and it was absolutely amazing. Service was very good even though they were very busy at 11am on a Friday.

Really wanted to love this place after all the reviews but it was pretty meh. It is very cute inside and definitely a nook. I would not recommend if you have a larger party though because it was really tight. A couple with a young baby was sitting next to us & I felt really bad as there was absolutely no place to put the car seat. Service was good & our waitress was very sweet. We ordered the chicken and waffles which was very good. I ordered the southern Benedict and was disappointed. The egg was definitely more hard boiled and had no egg run which is the best part in my opinion. Everything tasted good but it was just a little cold and the egg was not cooked correctly. A fine spot but probably won't be returning

I couldn't decide on what to order! Everything coming out to the surrounding tables looked so good. My Mimosa was cutely decorated! A friend next to me ordered a Nutella hot chocolate that looked and smelled so delicious. Waffles were a bit dry but fine paired with the toppings I ordered. Would have been good if you went the sweet route, as I went savory with a vegan chorizo option. The space was small but functional. We were a large party and everything came out in good timing considering our party size and how busy the restaurant was when we got there. Worth the wait!

Easy, fast service. Great food. Quite little place on Thursday afternoon. Pancakes are soooo good.

The service was fast and efficient, and the atmosphere was undeniably cute, characteristic of Lawrenceville. It's the kind of place where you can sit back, relax, and savor your food while soaking in the charming surroundings and people-watching by the window. This place had an excellent variety of options, both savory and sweet. I ordered the Mexican-style egg benedict, and it pleasantly exceeded my expectations. The meatless option made me forget I didn't get the real thing! The breakfast potatoes served alongside were cooked to perfection, with a crispy, blistery outer layer and a soft, fluffy core. The overall quality of the food was fantastic, and 10/10 would definitely go again!

From the atmosphere walking in the door, to the kind servers, to the amazing flavor and presentation of this delicious food. So happy we stumbled upon The Nook. We were traveling out of state and were unsure of places to eat, this spot nailed it!

I want to give The Nook a high rating but I was underwhelmed. If I could give it a 3.5 out of 4 I would. From the time we put our name down to actually getting our food was an hour. I had expected to wait a while to get seated but we only waited about 20 minutes. You give them your name and number and they keep this on a notepad. Someone will call you so be sure to answer a random number. Our server was nice. It did take a while to get our coffee and our water. The drip coffee was awful. I didn't expect it to be on the same level or worse as diner coffee but it was. My partners London fog was tasty thankfully. I ordered the Chick N Waffles and was disappointed. The chicken breast was dry and the breading kept falling off. I expected the chicken to be fried and instead it was lightly breaded and kind of gross. The waffle was the saving grace as it was flavorful and cooked properly. I got French fries with my dish and they were really good. Fried perfectly and salty. The other side options were home fries or salad. My partner got home fries with his meal and they were really good. The music they played was popping! It was most likely a 2009 throwbacks playlist featuring all the pop greats. It was loud, but I enjoyed it. The space is decorated in a really fun fashion and is a cozy spot for sure. I have high expectations for breakfast. When I heard this was owned by the same folks as Gepetto's I got excited as that's one of my favorite spots. This didn't satisfy the same breakfast craving as other places in the neighborhood. I'd be willing to try it again and would consider ordering more basic meals such as an omelette or trying a latte over drip coffee.

Came here with our Bible study group for a nice breakfast in lawerenceville! My girlfriend had been here before and thoroughly enjoyed it, so I recommended that we come and try it out as a group! I got the spicy chicken omelette with challah toast and potatoes, and it was delicious! The omelette was stuffed full of fixings, the challah toast was nice and flakey, and the potatoes were perfect with a little extra salt! The staff here was wonderful, and even though we sat at the picnic table outside, we were constantly being checked on! I loved it here and highly recommend it to anyone that's never been!
