Cute breakfast and lunch spot in Allendale.
Food was delicious. I ordered the breakfast sandwich croissant with sausage patty. The patty was ok- I would suggested getting a different meat on the sandwich.
The potato hashbrowns were delicious.
I was seated immediately on a Saturday morning at 9am.

Went here for breakfast. The restaurant is beautiful on the inside but it did have a few flies flying around inside while we were waiting to order and there were scratches on the seat of the chairs and the menus had food stains on them. Our server was very nice and attentive.
Now the food… I ordered the Allendale omelet which is a standard meat and cheese. The hashbrowns were under seasoned and not quite crispy. The omelet was disappointing… the ham inside was not well cooked at all. It seemed as though a bunch of pre-cooked meats were thrown in and cooked into the eggs. The sourdough toast was actually the best part of my meal.
My partner got the chicken and waffles. The chicken had a more peppery seasoning and was slightly over breaded. The waffles were very big and filling.
Overall, while the food was a little bit of a miss… the issues with the food are easy fixes.

Great spot in Allendale. Food was good, definitely recommend the cannoli Belgium Waffle. I had the half order of biscuits with gravy and eggs and husband got the Southern Omelet. Waffle to share, and it was heaven. Met the owner and could tell the passion he has for feeding his community. Will be back!

Clean and tidy, excellent food, and service that goes well beyond expectations. I arrived right at closing time, the entire restaurant was being cleaned as was the grill—and yet they made me a wonderful burrito and do so with graciousness. For breakfast in Allendale this needs to be your first choice.

We absolutely love the Nest Egg. Service is amazing (Antonio is the best!) — staff is kind and attentive; food is delicious and priced reasonably; coffee is tasty and they have espresso drinks; what more could you want?! We’ll be back whenever we are in town.

This is the 2nd time coming here and I was hoping it could be where I come with my mom every year for our annual greenhouse visit. First time was great. Great experience, food, and I felt welcomed. Today was the total opposite. After our waitress took our order, I didn’t see her for a while. We ordered breakfast food so I wasn’t expecting a half hour wait. I saw a guy and his kids who came in AFTER us already eating and pretty close to being done. I finally asked the host where our food was and miraculously they brought it out within minutes after asking. Food was cold. All of it. I was a waitress before and can only assume she forgot to put in our order which happens but she never once stopped by to let us know or anything. Just disappeared for 20 min. After getting our food, I didnt see her again until she gave us the bill. Another waitress checked on us, took our plates, and I even saw our waitress ask her to run our payment qnd give us our receipt. I understand being busy. I get it but this seemed almost on purpose. Not sure we will be back.

We had good expectations based on the location, decor, and the amount of time we waited for a table.
Our server was very nice, but not doing a great job. At first I thought it was because they were busy and understaffed, but when I looked around, there were many servers and not that many tables.
My wife, kids and I met my parents here for a weekend breakfast. Our orders were taken quickly enough, but when the food came out, the only thing that wasn’t cold — and I mean left out on the counter for 10 minutes cold — were the hash browns. Three of us ordered our eggs over medium. All of them were severely undercooked, to the point that the whites were not even firm. Bacon? Cold. Biscuits and gravy? Cold. Toast? Cold and hard as a rock.
No one ever checked on us. In fact, we had to get up and find the coffee for refills ourselves; no one ever checked on us.
Ironically, our waitress came back as we were choking down the last bites and asked, “how are those first bites tasting?” We told her how dissatisfied we were. She was nice about it and offered to replace our food, but it was too late
She did knock a bit off our check, but we will not be back.

Had the Frenchie, which was a creative way to combine eggs, protein and french toast…so good!

Love this place! It’s super clean with a modern look, the staff are friendly, and the food is great.
I got a cappuccino and strawberry cheesecake french toast and they were stellar. Came on a Thursday at 10am and Saturday at 8am and there was no wait!

The atmosphere here is neat. The outer wall is curved, which creates a fun environment. A combination of wood and brick meets modern. There is a warm feeling to the place.
They were out of it seemed like everything. I tried ordering the Crab Cakes Breakfast and they were out. So I tried my backup, the French Toast Puffs. Nope, out of that too. Annoyed at that point I just ordered scrambled eggs, Canadian Bacon, and Toast ($13). Here too there were issues. They were out of a bunch of types of toast. So I got an English muffin. The meal was fine. Technically there was nothing wrong with it. I did enjoy the Canadian Bacon. The eggs and English muffin were just a little blah. Especially for the price. The person I was with ordered the Greek Omelette ($11) and like it a lot.
The service was good and apologetic about being out of everything.
Overall a 3 1/2 star review. Since I have to round I just can’t give a 4 so It rounds to a 3 star review. Would I return? Maybe, I’m sure they deserve a 2nd try. Basically, buyer beware.
