Dropped our son off for WMU move in. Met friends at The Crows Nest for brunch. We had never been there and went solely based on the name. It was FANTASTIC! Fresh ingredients, exceptional quality. Every dish was thoughtful and tasted so. We are so incredibly judgemental when it comes to food and service and they meet every single high standard! Service was excellent as well. The decor and ambience are perfectly complimentary. HIGHLY recommend!

This breakfast joint was wonderful. It’s a hole in the wall and definitely worth your time. Their selection is wide and delicious. They have a ton of unique items and in-hour coffee brews and fresh bread. All dishes are about $15/person and massive portions. We took most of our food home and we are dedicated foodies. Make the stop!

Crow's Nest is always exceptional. I've always had great experiences here and it's truly my favorite restaurant in Kalamazoo. I went with my dad today and we ended up having a lovely conversation with the owner. We also had Sara as our server who is always excellent as well. The food is so good. All of their Eggs Benedict variations are amazing, though I will say that when they have the Cuban Benedict on special that probably takes the cake. There is usually a wait, but I assure you it's absolutely worth the wait. (And is frankly the only place I will typically wait for). I cannot say enough good things about their food.

I absolutely love this place- you can immediately notice that everything is made from scratch and if it isn't well then I have been fooled. Not only is everything so good, its so affordable! I have paid more for food this good! It is crowded, and you will have to wait, but it's worth it.And everyone is friendly.

Hubby and I just like to get out of town and try new places, drove 1.5 hours north to this gem in Kalamazoo. Food was good with different combinations I never would have thought of. Staff was always smiling with positive attitudes.. Will be going back again.

One of the best place to eat in this area. Key thing is they bake their own bread and cakes. Make a world of difference on something simple. They also don't skim on ingredients in your main entree, worth everything that u will pay for. Service is good too. Water and coffee constantly getting refill.

Crow’s Nest is now my favorite breakfast place in town. I got the Farmer’s Skillet. It was big enough that I took half to go and ate it for breakfast the next day as well! Highly recommend!

Our family had breakfast at Crow’s Nest Saturday morning. We’ve heard this was a great breakfast spot and we can confirm that is true. Food: Excellent…had a variety of items such as a scramble, French toast, breakfast burrito, and breakfast biscuit sandwiches. It was all excellent and in the top ten for me for breakfast places. Atmosphere: Is nice, not very large but you can grab a coffee downstairs while you wait. Service: Very friendly service and attentive.
