Very small menu can not deviate from menu No onions for omelettes We usually Love limited menus just means what they make is usually good People came in and ordered after us They came and went before our food came out We waited almost an hour everyone else was served we finally walked out told the waitress we couldn't wait any longer. Alls she said was sorry didn't mention our food was coming out soon I wonder if she even put the order in. I understand being short handed she looked a little frazzled at that point but we where one of the first people in the restaurant and received nothing and everyone else was feed. We Came here because they where one of the first to open in the area needed to get an early breakfast before getting out for our hike That didn't happen We considered getting up and leaving many times as we waited for our food Unbelievable how long it took and the only thing we got was a cup of tea Left $3 for tea and walked out

Lovely setting, non-pretentious, with simple breakfast food. Exactly what we were looking for... Really nice, down-to-earth server. They also have their own garden with home-grown veggies. Just wish they were open on more mornings!

Service and food were terrible. It was slow in the restaurant and yet I still couldn’t get a water. Asked three times and still didn’t get it.I seriously thought I was being pranked.No one at my table received any drinks until well after food arrived.Food took a bit and came out wrong.Lots of other options in the area, I would definitely look elsewhere

Horrible Service with a smile. Couldn’t find server. Not busy, maybe 3 people inside. Bad quality food, overcooked bacon. Potatoes with no seasoning at all. WAY OVERPRICED. $50 for eggs and bacon.

The Nest was a complete disappointment. Incompetent servers, greasy eggs, lukewarm coffee, creamers gone sour, burnt toast, poor maple syrup, no artificial sugar(I'm diabetic), and the BEST YET--NO UTENSILS. NO UTENSILS UNTIL AFTER FOOD WAS SERVED AND I ASKED FOR THEM. Then a 10 min wait for our check. Never had a worse dining experience in Stowe.
The restaurant was clean and attractive. They had jazz playing and the hostess, Jo was very pleasant. We were the only two people in the place, which is not that unusual in VT. The coffee was not bad.The kitchen staff was remarkably slow, especially given that they only had two meals to prepare. The food came out wrong and cold. Jo was very apologetic and attempted to make things right, as the kitchen prepared each corrected item and sent them out one at a time, poorly prepared.I’m all for homemade turkey sausage, but if you don’t know how to actually blend the seasonings with the meat, call it a turkey burger and keep it moving.I’m sure it would be tasty if served hot or even warm, but I guess I’ll never know.This place really brings the rest of the resort down and should be overhauled or shutdown.

Great hot breakfast buffet, with a lot of choices. No wait to get seated. Great server. Highly recommend.

Wonderful, sustainable food, with warm and welcoming hospitality. All of the food was extremely fresh, delicious, and frankly the best breakfast we've ever had in Stowe. Run, don't walk to the nest if you have the opportunity!
Service was prompt and friendly and food was generally good, however they claim all local food products and don’t deliver. The bread was advertised as the local Red Hen Bakery which I am very familiar with and it was simply one slice of standard cheap store bought thin bread, so a star off for false advertising. Good thing it came with the meal, as they charge $7 for a side order of toast!

Food was pretty good. Definitely seemed way understaffed when I visited since the waitresses took at least 15 min to take our order and an extra 20 to give us the check after we finished.

I visit Stowe regularly, and it has always been a challenge to find breakfast - until now. The Nest is located on the grounds of the Golden Eagle resort, where we were staying. The Nest serves breakfast/brunch until 1 pm, a lifesaver if you sleep in. The menu is small but the food is absolutely delicious.They source as many of their ingredients as possible from local farms, not unusual in Stowe but executed flawlessly. This is now our go-to breakfast place in Stowe.
