Crow's Nest

Despite growing crowds - and wait times - for their much-buzzed about breakfast, there's still more than meets the eye to this vine neighborhood gem after all these years. Equal parts brunch spot and weekend fourth meal mecca, Crow's Nest hums with energy at the end of the week, slinging sandwiches, pancakes, and eggs to less-than-sober diners throughout the night. Their menu itself is as varied as the vibe throughout the day, offering well-executed American classics alongside a variety of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options. House favorites include French toast - served in a number of guises ranging from plain to pecan sticky bun - as well as egg specialties, and house-baked quick breads. Try it all, you can hardly go wrong.

I. Love. This. Reataurant. I would hands down spend my entire paycheck here. I drive from GR to Kalamazoo to come here and never regret it. Breakfast is my favorite time to come especially on sunny days. But I occasionally come closer to to midnight. Either time, though, the atmosphere is perfect. I'd recommend everyone coming here. The food varieties seem to be endless and they have a little of everything for every palate. Whether you're gluten free, vegan, vegetarian, a carnivore, etc.-they got you covered!
