The first issue was asking for a glass of water along with coffee. The waitress brought a commercial plastic bottle of water, when I asked if I could just have a glass of tap water, she said no. literally every restaurant in the US will give you a glass of water with a meal. I didn’t ask the price of a bottle of water, but I can only guess its probably at least 3 dollars. My friend and I both ordered the 4 dollar cup of coffee (a bit higher then Starbucks prices). When the coffee arrived, it was luke-cold. The waitress apologized and said the coffee pot was put on a cold burner, okay fair, mistakes can happen. New hot cups were brought which was when we realized the coffee was very-very weak. I mean maybe ½ the strength of what Id consider a normal or average strength coffee. When the food was brought out, my friend ordered a breakfast (egg and cheese) sandwich, and after one bite explained she couldn’t eat it. Im not 100% sure why, but it looked very soggy and the English muffin didn’t look toasted at all (The sandwich definitely did not look very appetizing). Rather than complaining or ordering something else she did end up eating a few more bites, and left at least half uneaten. We had some granola in the car, she said she’ll be fine. I had pancakes which tasted good, but they were very small. I’m more used to pancakes often being so large that I can not consume it all, but these pancakes were embarrassingly small, like 5-6” across. I had opted for the Maple syrup upgrade for an extra 2.00, but the small plastic container was maybe half filled and I’d guess about 1.5 ounces of maple syrup. It covered 3-4 bits of the pancakes. I asked for more syrup, but did not ask if Id be charged again. My friend was buying and I chose not to look at the bill, but Id bet I was charged another 2.00 for the additional very small cup of maple syrup. Lastly when paying we heard that they restaurant wouldn’t accept plastic and pointed to a sign that was indeed posted (we didn’t see it) and then pointed to an ATM machine if needed. I don’t know… maybe it’s just me, but the nickel-and-diming was a real turn off for us both. I travel for work and eat-out a LOT all over this country, and I was surprised at the Breakfast nook was so chinsy on a number of counts. What sort of establishment doesn’t accept a credit or debit card these days? Some people don't even carry cash anymore (me). Your milage may vary, but I'm sure there are much better choices. I mean its breakfast, come on... how can you mess up breakfast? The food is too expensive (for what it is), coffee no good, cant get a glass of water, the syrup must be made from gold, no CC for payment is a serious inconvenience specially if you are unprepared to pay in other ways. I would NOT eat at the Breakfast Nook if there was any other choice.

Place is way over priced for what you get. Staff wasn’t very pleasant. Food was not good for the price.

Terrible prices …. Bad attitude from owner because my bill was off by 10.00

Typical breakfast offerings. Nice, clean, fast service.

The dishes only give you the main breakfast meal (like omelette with 2 slices of bread) without home-fries or tater-tots like other places offer, but they charge full price so it ends up being expensive, and it is a CASH ONLY business. Be advised that the menu states there are no substitutions or changes to their recipes and an overcharge fee will apply if you decide to “share”. I like sharing a portion of bacon with my spouse, but decided not to order it after seeing that notice in the menu. And the food was eatable but not tasty or fulfilling, I actually added ketchup to be able to swallow the overcooked outer omelette and undercooked inside the omelette, but I was hungry and had the food in front of me, so I ate it. I would not recommend and will never go back.

This place is amazing, ignore all the 1 star review, they are either lying or are bad horrible people im the world. The food is AMAZING; tasty very fresh and homemade, and is not pricey at all… the stuff were so nice to us and we were so amazed with the beautiful project they have helping young stuff to become more responsible and out of trouble. We loved every single thing about this place and we were very grateful to have a delicious breakfast on our way back home.

Great place to stop and grab a quick breakfast

We stopped by around 10a on a Monday morning and were the only customers in the entire restaurant; there was no music, only Fox News blaring on the TV. The food was not good and the bill for 2 people came out to $42 which was CRAZY for the quality of food we received. I can only explain the experience as cursed. There’s much better restaurants in the area, do yourself a favor and go literally anywhere else.

The idea of this place as it was explained to us is amazing. The food is a bit pricey, but for the cause, and quality, it's most definitely worth it. The mood they set, respect, and level of service they gave us was amazing. And for the food we ordered they got it to us really quick. Was amazing.
Do not eat here. The food is mediocre at best and extraordinarily overpriced. The service was poor, as the waitresses and staff were rude. My girlfriend and I ordered a coffee, an orange juice, (1 slice of) duck egg French toast, grits, 2 small waffles, and 1 sausage patty, which turned out to be $50, and all the food had both extremely small portions and was of low quality and flavor. They even forgot my girlfriend’s sausage, and when we mentioned that she had ordered one, instead of putting a new one on the griddle, they gave her the sausage which was as hard as a hockey puck by that point. The building and location were quaint but all the employees had pajamas on and looked like they had just rolled out of bed. I would not wish this breakfast experience on my worst enemy.

My husband and I spent our honeymoon at the Golden Anchor cabins and this place is the closest breakfast spot, so we decided to try it out!
***Be aware that it’s cash or check only!** they do have an ATM inside.***
We LOVED being able to support their mission and heart to help teens serve and work. Go in with patience and compassion and you’ll have a better experience than some of these folks who wrote negative reviews. The food was good too; we each got the Nookie Scramble and their special that day: duck egg French toast. Keep up the good work ❤️

This is a transition facility for young adults with autism. Please understand this before you go! Some of the reviews below are completely unfair, callous and reflect some folks in ability to understand the hard struggles people with autism have. We had breakfast three times during our visit to Davis, WV. The food was always good, the bacon in particular is phenomenal. Standard maple syrup is included, home made WV maple syrup is optional for an additional charge and well worth it. They also have optional freshly squeezed orange juice which is of course more expensive than store bought OJ. The staff is wonderful, you can feel how hard they are trying. Don't be surprised if sometimes you will get a very direct autistic answer. Yes, it is cash only and on the pricy side for breakfast but remember the restaurant is helping to fund their program. To complain about the price in light of their mission is wrong.

We stopped in for quick breakfast going out of town. Staff was rude, yelled at other staff and was rushing us out of the place. There were 5 barstools and three small tables. Very crowded and the manager screamed “don’t let anyone else in!!”to a teenage employee . The food was overpriced and not great. Was told by a friend not to bother but we thought we’d give it a try. We needed to listen. Once we were outside another couple asked “ did you feel as unwelcome as we did?”……

The service was good , however the food was awful. We ordered very basic items, eggs, grits , biscuits and gravy and it was not good . The grits were not cooked , you could tell they put them in a bowl and the poured boiling water in the bowl and sent them out .
