Birds Nest Cafe

Super cute and tranquil cafe. They have excellent coffee (French Truck I believe). Servers are very friendly and helpful. I've seen it crowded on the weekend (it's small on the inside), but never had a wait during the week. Outside tables and dog water bowl available. Parking lot, don't have to street park.

Because it was such lovely weather we walked through the park and found ourselves at Bird's nest cafe. First off, kudos to the staff. The lady who took our order was very helpful. We ordered a grilled cheese sandwich and she advised us that it might be a little too plain! She was right and I am grateful that she took the minute to warn us to temper our expectations! We also ordered the recommended lunch sandwich of the day, a tomato, pesto, mozzarella sandwich! Oh Yummm~! Both came with a bag of chips. You could choose which chip you wanted. Awesome! And they had Oatmilk latte, and whole milk for my partner. So we ordered one of each! On the whole, great location, great food, great service and a great cafe, despite us being the only ones there! These are truly hard times, y'all~!

I popped in here this week, as I was jonesing for a cappuccino. It was my first visit, and I had no idea what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised. They're located on Spanish Fort, very near St. Pius Church and School. There was plenty of available parking and the signage on the front was cute and inviting. As you walk in you immediately notice that it's bright, and the colorful artwork is cheery. The counter was manned by one lady, who was doing her best to fill orders. I was third in line and it took a few minutes. I must say that she was quick and efficient, just really busy. The guy in front of me ordered a peppermint, iced, green tea and cheese grits. The tea really peaked my interest, and although I didn't order it at the time, I'm definitely going to give it a try soon. I had my cappuccino and it was delicious! Perfect everything! There was a B & I group meeting while I was there, and it seems that this is a good spot for meetings. I also overheard a job interview going on at one of the tables. I saw that they serve coffees, teas, breakfast sandwiches, muffins, bagels, grits, paninis, and lots of other things. I'll be back and give some other items a try. Especially that peppermint, iced, green tea.

GREAT LOCALLY OWNED COFFEE SHOPThe low fat breakfast sandwich is thick with whole grains and gooey cheese and egg white. Even better they make it in house. The coffee is French Truck so you know it is roasted fresh not even 5 miles away. The owner is that great combination of cheery genuineness and efficient barista.

Pet friendly, great coffee awesome food and did I mention PET FRIENDLY!!! Nice convenient Lakeview area right off the beaten path with great hospitable people

First - FoodAll of the food is above average but the Muffalettta and the special salad named after the grandmother are outstanding. The Cuban is not a typical Cuban but I like it. Staff - could not be more attentive and friendly

I tend to look for more local places when in need of coffee, as we all should. I heard through the grapevine to try Birds Nest Cafe, so I decided to check this place out. When arriving, after smiling at the local art in the surroundings and a few art abstracts, I was nicely greeted and already felt my anxiety shiver away. The lady working, Miss Lindsey, steered me in the right direction for my beverage and food choices. My Chai latte was phenomenal, the coconut milk added such an amazing flavor (oddly). I ordered a delicious panini! So cheesy and delightful. Lots of flavors. I'm glad to know this place exists! I will be studying a lot this semester and have found a place where I am most comfortable. Cheers!

Birds Nest has it all! French truck coffee & Tea, Gracious Bakery pastries, Simon paintings on the walls and a play area for the kiddies. There is also a bunch of tables, inside and out, for getting work or studying done. I tried their breakfast burrito and it was delicious! It was like a panini wrap of goodness. The staff is super friendly too! The wifi password is on the bottom of your receipt. Warm and welcoming space!

What a gem!!! They serve French truck coffee. Gracious croissants and baked goods. A warm breakfast and paninis. They even have an adorable kids room. Wi fi. Quiet. We rode our bikes here from Lakeview. Took the back path. Will be coming here every weekend!!

The quaint little business has delicious coffee. The owner is very friendly and very hospitable. I am happy we stopped in and will continue to support this small, locally owned coffee shop.Next time we will plan to be there when it's time to eat too!
