Fast and great espresso
Fast and friendly service. They make a great London Fog
Nice place.
Really good food, nice atmosphere. Good vegan and vegetarian place!
Great, friendly little place. Awesome for getting work done
The Nook is so cozy, always chill music, perfect vibes for studying or working or catching up. Also delightful plant-based and omnivorous food, though I tend to stick with their equally great specialty coffee and local beers. :)
This place is beautifully located on Gallatin Street Halifax Nova Scotia was there today one of the many times I went and enjoyed a cup of coffee expresso or a latte and each and every time the staff was super kind and generous and they have a jar which you could put donations in for people who maybe in need of a good cup of Nookins
Great healthy food. Good menu. Nice people.
Good food and coffee also has cocktails
I am being generous just because I like the vibe and the coffee. The food leaves much to be desired. Ordered a Buttress bowl - it was 5 minute rice, a small portion of curry chicken, a handful of spinach and a tiny bit of shredded carrot. Rather unimaginative and not worth $12!!
A nice spot for hipsters and wannabes
Under new ownership. Hopefully they get more reasonable hours so that people going to work in the morning can actually stop and grab a coffee.
Food was incredible . We were accommodated with a group of 15 graciously without hesitation. There was something for everyone! Fantastic coffee!
Great food with some unique flavor profiles a bit smaller portion sizes than I was used to but I used it as an opportunity to try another item. They also sell those meal coins so you can pass them out to a down on their luck person so they can turn them in for a meal.
The Nook is my FAVE cafe in Halifax. The food is AMAZING, and the service is top notch ☺️????????
Good vibe. Try this place if you enjoy vegan healthy food plus locally roasted coffee
Such a great spot! Very friendly and the food is excellent ????
It’s a lovely little cafe. I have been several times and I enjoy the care put into the decor and the menu. The seating is comfortable and attractive, the staff is nice. I haven’t tried any of the food items but it seems they have a good selection of normal cafe kind of stuff with vegan options.
I went to The Nook for a networking event after hours, and I had a fantastic time! They had a variety of snacks available, many delicious hot and cold beverages, and a few great beers to choose from. I went with a really great black lager and thoroughly enjoyed it throughout the night. They don't have beers on tap, but this is to be expected since they function primarily as a café. The Nook seems to attract a lot of people from the tech industry and trendy adults. I would recommend this place to anyone interested in a chill, artsy, clean, LGBT+ friendly café with great beer and snacks.
Best cafe in Halifax, hands down. Incredible staff members, fantastic hot and cold drinks, many food options for carnivores and vegans alike, and the wonderful token program which is so awesome. Keep it up Nook staff, love it!!
Great vegan options. Wrap with scrambled tofu and coconut bacon is very good.
Nice place...wifi available
Nice little coffee shop with great coffee and a trendy but small sitting area. The coffee they offer is from a roaster in lunenberg so they are trying to keep things local.
The best coffee. Nice gals.on.staff...and.polite...
I frequent here almost Daily. They have great food with quality ingredients. The Holy Goat was a staple for a while. Friendly staff and cozy atmosphere. The token program is an awesome way for them to give a pathway for others to contribute to the less fortunate of the community.
This place makes the best breakfast sandwiches and cookies. Thier summer blueberry basil lemonade is also very good!!
One of the best vegan breakfast bagels I've had!!! Yum
We loved this little spot! The smoked salmon Bagel was delicious - especially loved the lemon they added to the cream cheese.
Cosy, friendly café.
Cute little coffee shop, temperature set a bit on the chilly side.
Wasn't getting with welcome. Poor service. Employees didn't seem happy to be there.
Found this cute place today! Loved the cold brew.
Great place to come and study and enjoy a bite! Lots of vegan and veggie options, plenty of outlets!
Big fan. Great coffee, nice small menu of tasty, simple food. Staff are really friendly.
Great little spot and pretty good coffee!
Tons of vegan goodies, good prices, great service! One of the best cafes in Halifax, easily :)
Wonderful staff and good food. Good vegan options
The Everything Everything bagel sandwich is everything.
excellent cashier, good coffee, but the white male supervisor gives me the creeps
Great treats!
This is a place you go for a date or with friends. The atmosphere is relaxing and both the food and drinks are well made.
Great atmosphere, kind staff, and the drip coffee I ordered was delicious, but the cappuccino I got was burnt, which was a bummer. I would give it another try, though, for sure.
Great food and coffee with a hipster vibe.
Good coffee and breakfast sandwiches friendly staff
Cute lil coffee shop. Tasty treats & good food. Loved my lattee too.
Great selection, friendly service.
I love this little place. Friendly, casual staff and great Fair Trade coffee. The nooks are nice for a small group to have a semblance of privacy from the open part of the shop. Food's good too.
The definitive local neighborhood cafe. The coffee is perfect, the food always delicious, and the vibe is always so relaxed and inviting.
These people know how to make an ace coffee. Good spot to chill it over a good book
I love the Nook! Tucked in between Hammonds Plains and Bedford Hwy- this use to be a Starbucks which I used to come to meet people for work. The Nook has a special atmosphere;wonderful staff to boot- an example: I ordered a Maachi latte for the first time & it was not to my palettes liking. One of the staff so graciously offered to make me something else with no extra charge- that to me is A1 service. I did offer to pay but she kept insisting no that was ok. Their daily lunches and pastries are really good. If you’re ever hungry, stop by at The Nook and try their meals. You will not be disappointed. I really Love coming here whenever I get the opportunity to meet my clients. Lots of parking and kind, polite and professional staff, great coffee and delicious food makes this place one of my faves!
What a great little cafe and snack bar! I had a beet and spinach salad... It was huge and had something like 20 candied pecans. It was appropriate value at $9. Coffee was excellent and the booths are a joy to sit in for private conversation. Will definitely be back.
Very cozy and comfortable atmosphere. Tasty food and friendly service :)
Super adorable atmosphere
Great coffee and great staff
Very good turkey and fixxns on a kaiser...surprised the hell out of Me as to its quality and taste..I'd recommend the nook on this one taste of Their variety menu...check it out
Fantastic coffee, great drinks. Grab a beer and a latte.
Nice restaurant
Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and solid prices. This place has everything you'd want in a cafe and has some food on the side to really make it worth your while. The Nook is cozy and a great place to spend some time socializing or just enjoying your own company.
Soooooo delicious. Hard to believe their coconut bacon is legal, never mind vegan. Terrific staff too.
Nice coffee place in an up and coming area.
The food is good, and there is such a nice atmosphere, it's a good place to hang out when you've got nothing better to do. - Oh, and the the music's always good.
Lovely spot, and the beverages were wonderful. Staff were very friendly and helpful, and service was quick. Seating was a bit awkward and it can be a bit "cozy" if it's busy (which is mostly personal preference, but that might be a preference you wish to be aware of), but otherwise a great place to recharge.
Surprisingly a good pace. Good menu, good quality, value for money. Tasty. And the service was decent.
This cafe earns my utmost respect. Not only is it my favorite cafe in the city, but its also my favorite place to purchase baked goods. It earns such a high rating from me because not only do they consistently provide amazing customer service, but they also have a program to help end food-insecurity. This is an incredibly inclusive place and no matter what background you come from, you will always feel respected and welcomed here. The one thing I would suggest would be to change the names of the menu items. Its a little bit awkward to order something called 'mmm bacon.' But alas if I could give this establishment more stars, I would. p.s. They have the best chai lattes in the city.
great staff and good coffee
A must visit when meandering the streets of Halifax.
The Nook never disappoints, great vegan options and delicious coffee, this place is super welcome to all and has a great staff.
I love the chocolate chip cookies, the coffee cake, okay really every vegan baked good they offer. The coffee is tasty as well.
Unique menu of food and beverages. Not your typical place - in a good way.
Most yummy nachos and local beer!
The coffee and food was delicious! Small cafe with limited seating but a very warm and comforting atmosphere. A great place to meet a friend for coffee.
Good coffee. Big selection of food catering to specific dietary needs, i.e. vegan, gluten free etc
A lil pricey but a fun and funky cozy hangout spot.
Quiet stylish place with a friendly, cosy atmosphere, good beer, good coffee, and the food smelled great too. Thank you to the barista who gave us some great recommendations and was sympathetic when my phone wouldn't connect to the WiFi!
A little pricey, but worth it. Great service and amazing food!! Cozy atmosphere.
Great coffee, awesome bagel sammiches highly recommend the bacon cheddar and the smoked salmon. Great service, if I lived here I'd go broke eating here all the time
Excellent coffee and espresso-based drinks, and lots of food choices for folks with dietary restrictions (vegan, gluten-free, soy-free, etc)
Aw yeah this place was great. One fella he was excited to run a marathon, and this person with orange hair had platinum eye brows, which is a neat look. I was all "can I get a black coffee and a cup of water" and they were like "yeah …
I'm just amazed by how this shop helps the community by selling "chips" that are worth a bagel and coffee, or sandwich ???? . I've used them in my outreach efforts, professionally and personally ! ????????????
Cute cafe. Great breakfast wrap. Adjacent to a ton of stuff!
Love this place! Great place for coffee and treats! Highly recommend!
Great coffee and date squares and lovely people!
I had never been here before, so happy to have found this place! Heard lots of good things and I must say all of those lived up to the expectations, will be coming back here again!
Excellent coffee and service, really nice atmosphere.
The renovations and management change this year put the Nook back on the radar for a great place to chill, chat, eat, and work.
Awesome staff, better coffee, and great atmosphere this is the best place to grab a hot drink in town.
Pricey and if you're from out of town, it's in a bit of a sketchier feeling neighborhood. But coffee is great and food is nice.
Great coffee and cozy place.
Nice staff and a clean spot. Free WiFi. Good coffee and sweet treats. This is not a restaurant so no sandwiches or samosas, etc. Great place to relax or to get some work done on your laptop.
Great soup and sandwiches #lotsofvegan
Great customer service, good espresso-based drinks and nice bagels. Keep up the good work.
The Nook espresso bar & lounge Scored on street parking (Sun) Counter staff was lovely. Environment was welcoming. Booth was super cute. A little pricy, but healthy costs more. Many vegan options. Beet salad = yummy. Good jams. .. So much so that one fella across the room sang right along with Brittany. Therefore points for entertainment ????. Wifi score ???? blueberry basil lemonade was good - but super tart - had to go back for the sweetner ..lol. yet another bathroom tidbit ... Need a key .. on a large wooden kitchen utensil .. for a bathroom that's right in plain sight directly across from the main counter .. sooooo there must be a reason - that I might not want to know - but the bathroom was lovely and clean, so score. One latte $4.50 .. pretty & good.
Run down. Not a very clean place
tasty tartine-style sandwiches, great interior, clean, nice service, something for everyone.
Legit the best lattes in Halifax
Sweet, sweet and intimate spot to just leave your problems at the door and lean up against a wall with a drink - be it coffee or alcohol. They host bands from out of town from time to time who will impress you more than you would expect. Such a special hidden Nook.
Always a good place for a quick bite.
Friendly and helpful service and wonderful products to choose from - inviting space to gather with friends or have a relaxed business meeting
Great service
Great food. Vegan and gluten-free options
Cute and friendly place! The booths are very cozy. Definitely recommend.
great North Mountain coffee, awesome food and snacks with a large vegan-friendly selection. awesome atmosphere and great hang out spot.
Cute little place. The coffee was good, I'm pretty sure they have gluten free options, so I'm looking forward to trying the food soon.
Been slowly checking this place out as i am a coffee enthusiast. Not black coffee. But the robust flavor along with a playful acidity, not to much though is enjoyable. The flavor is unlike the other coffee places as if it was i would turn and slowly go to the next to attempt the flavor. I have also tried the hemp bars as well as some of the delights this pleasing place has to offer and will try more. The staff are always nice, wish everyone i knew was so nice to be honest. Great atmosphere to be in as well as i just noticed an open mic every wednesday 7-9 pm. Sounds like fun and will be soon partaking in this little nook in Halifax NS.
(Translated) Relaxing and tranquil atmosphere (Original) Ambiance relaxante et tranquille
Their menu is fantastic, the coffee is exactly what I need to start my day, and the staff is exceptional.
Cool place. Good to go hang out or get work done. Food and hot drinks are exceptional. The setup is just a little off, it isn't as comfy as some places (layout, lighting, decor, music, etc). Also was really cold in there. Definitely worth the visit! Will be back.
Hipster central but I'm one to talk lol. Great vegan and non vegan options. Good coffee.
Best tofu breakfast wrap. The "bacon" was so crunchy and full of flavour. I loved the art on my chai latte also.
Good wifi, good coffee, great treats
Amazing place espically for a vegan, great staff, and very cozy atmosphere. Great chai latte as well.
Great little cafe
The Nook is a great place to have a meal, close up with a book/laptop, and just relax. They have a good selection of drinks and music. They are vegan friendly.
A very nice local café. Good beverages and nice atmosphere
Best gluten free bread I've found yet and the staff were super lovely! Tons of vegetarian options and the soup is amazing!
Fairly nice place, just not open early enough for one to grab that morning coffee
Excellent place
5 stars for a variety food menu, great coffee, bright & clean space and lots of windows.
Chill, retro music, good study place
Great freelancer workspace
Amazing breakfast sandwiches. My mouth is so happy.
Great coffee and tasty breakfast bagel!
Great food and staff
Expensive food and drinks, didn't find it a good study spot
Very cozy spot, perfect for a sit down or even grabbing a quick drink of your choice
A very nice coffee shop (the coffee is very good) with a unique menu and unique tables to sit at. Some booths offer a lot of privacy with hanging bead curtains. If you like chocolate treats, The Nook offers a bunch of hand crafted chocolates for you to choose from. Very nice for small groups (around 4). Also a good place to study.
Best hot cocoa
The guy made me whipped cream from scratch. I was impressed. I love vibe here, too! 5 stars!!
Extremely LGBTQ+ friendly. Everything about this place says inclusivity, I am so incredibly impressed and grateful. Good coffee, and the best gluten free peanut butter cookie I have had in a long time. A+
My new favourite spot. The coffee is excellent, and the lemon tarts were amazing. The pastry chef is unfortunately in a "committed relationship" , so my proposal was declined.
The Nook is a destination. When rain, wind and snow make Halifax cold, The Nook is sure to warm you up. If it's sunny out, it's a chill place to catch your breath. Great coffee and ambience all year round. Friendly staff and inclusive policies are icing on the cake.
Great food great coffee and great company!
Nice atmosphere, delicious Latte, busy but still quiet for conversation. Can't ask for much more as we really enjoyed ourselves here.
Good little spot for a sip of whatever beverage you choose to imbibe. Can get pretty busy around lunch and seating may be limited. however they also have a small selection of boardgames and little activities for longer visits with friends.
I'm not a coffee connoisseur but I will say that, in my humble opinion, they brew a good cup. More importantly is the outreach work being done with the token program that assist the hungry with securing good healthier food choices in times of need. My first time visiting Halifax and you can clearly see the effects of gentrification in this neighborhood. So inspiring and heartwarming to see a small business encouraging community support for all residents. If you are going to get coffee while you are out and about, please make your way to The Nook on Gottingen and spare an extra few dollars to help out.
Excellent coffee and sweets. Unforgivable crimes against type cases.
Sweet place
Fantastic coffee at very reasonable price for the quality. Nice program to help the under privileged residents of Halifax get a hot coffee and snack.
Good coffee
I cannot express my love for this place enough! Some of the BEST food I've ever had (I had a breakfast wrap and a vegan brownie)!! Not to mention the awesome and super kind staff - my day started out wonderfully because I made the Nook my first stop! Cant wait to go back!
Literally the only place my fiancé and I go for breakfast! Affordable, tasty vegan options, accommodating to food sensitivities, and the staff/owners are great! 10/10 from us!
Excellent food and service.
I recently enjoyed brunch with a friend at the Nook on Gottingen. I had a delicious and healthy bowl with a cold press coffee and brownie. Not only did I love the food, but the service was very good and the atmosphere was quaint and cozy. I would absolutely go back to try more of their amazing selection of food and beverage.
This place has so many gf, v and soy free options and they were all delicious! We will be back! Thanks!!!!!
Friendly staff, good food.
Quiet, friendly little neighnourhood coffee shop.
The food here was pretty good and definitely fresh, but I came during lunchtime and despite there not being a line at all, it was a 50 minute wait for the food to come out and I ended up being quite late returning to my workplace as a result. Normally this would be on me, but I asked how long it would be when ordering and was told ten minutes. Great place, don't go if you're in any sort of a hurry.
Very nice cozy coffee shop with smiling service and discounts on signing up.
Their coffee is so dark..couldnt drink it
Absolutely delicious coffee, and a cafe with a conscious.
Great food for people in need that cannot afford a meal everyday, great and friendly staff.
Some of the best, if not THE best vegan food ive tasted in the city so far
Very cute and comfy atmosphere. Delicious drinks and quick bites. Staff was very friendly too. I will definitely come back again!
really delish food and wonderful vegan options !!! good drinks too ! a little pricey it definitely worth it every once in awhile ! definitely recommend!
Expensive, but friendly and very clean. Good food.
staff are always fab!!
Good coffee in a short moment at the Nook.
Lovely! Loved the Chilli dish with the pink drink. Thanks Guys.
So glad I found this little cafe during my time in Halifax! Love that there's free WiFi and it's such a comfy place to have a coffee and plan out your day
Nice little gem in northern side of HRM
Great creamy mocha. Service was excellent and with a warm smile Token program to give meals to those in need is a great idea and worth the donation. Keep it up please.
Best americano I have had in a while!
Great spot!
Excellent!
the baked goods here are incredible, particularly the date square and chocolate chip cookie. great coffee and kind staff!
Great atmosphere and food. You can sit at the window and watch the traffic go by. A great place to relax.
The Nook is so wonderful it’s hard to put into words!! Best staff ever, best vegan food and treats! Delicious lattes, black coffee, whatever it is it’s gonna be good ????
Love an atmosphere and furnitures around. Very nice coffee shop.
Friendly staff, nice atmosphere, and a well priced cup of coffee. What more could you ask for?
Great place for lunch and coffee ❤️ A lot of flowers and amazing staff ????
Good coffee and snacks. Accommodates vegans. Friendly staff. Rustic atmosphere. Only down side is lack of parking.
Nice cozy coffee shop w/ wifi
Amazing cappuccino
Beautiful spot, great environment, food was amazing. Favourite part was they offer the option to buy tokens for people in need. $2 extra buys someone a coffee and bagel, $5 extra get someone a meal. This is a phenomenal idea!
Always delicious, always friendly, never pretentious.
Best soy latte in town, until they changed the soy milk to Pacific... Apart from that they have great food and it's a nice location. My partner and I will get our coffee elsewhere though.
This is a amazing lil café you would not expect on Gottingen st great coffee, great food, great atmosphere!
I come to the nook often to have a coffee and get some undistracted work finished. The nook is warm and inviting with amazing coffee and the best chocolate chip cookies. They also have many vegetarian options which is the cherry on top for me!
Great bathroom
It's a good place
I like their drip coffee and their Izzy bagel with goat cheese.
Quaint eatery with neat books for privacy
The friendly and compassionate staff/owners at the Nook are amazing! Their espresso is the one of the best in the city and their food options never disappoint! Their philosophy to filter coffee and not people is one the many reasons I support this proudly Nova Scotian coffee shop!
Great coffee
Nice place with the smell of good coffee when youtube enter.
Nice little spot close to my house. Enjoy reading a book and having a beer or two. Happy hour starts at 4 and all bottles (including cider) are $4.60 w tax.
This is a nice little 'Nook'. Good coffee, good quality light food. Love the Heart Stopper bagel at breakfast - it always goes down well. A great place to pass away some time with a book/notepad in one hand and a beverage in another without feeling any pressure to leave by the staff.
I work across the street, used to get my coffee every single day, till they switched to the green cups, coffee keeps leaking from the cups and price is still the same, your coffee is not cheap so please give good cups with them. Thank you.
Surprisingly impressive sandwich! Also great coffee and friendly staff.
Yummy coffee
Iced latte is heaven
Fantastic baristas, friendly staff, and a warm and inviting atmosphere makes "The Nook" a must on your Halifax to do list, great vegan menu and ample seating to sit back and enjoy the finer things in life. Do yourself a favour if you have not visited this fine establishment and take 15 minutes out of your hectic day and sit back enjoy the ambiance of a true non chain coffee shop on your way home from work one day this week, you will not be disappointed.
Great people
Small local coffee with live music sometimes.
A hidden treasure
The staff is very friendly and the made the chai latte again as it wasnt hot enough for my liking. Nice place to just hang out.
amazing spot. very charitable. staff is friendly. great food. their token program truly feed the hungry
Love the coffee and the vibe. Love how they give back to the community. Everyone is welcome here which is very refreshing.
Very clean & tidy place. Many blends of teas, coffee & cold drinks.
Awesome little cafe. Delicious food and drinks.
Great coffee and nice choice of food, most of them vegetarian. Loved the date desert!
Nice and friendly
Love everything about the place
My go to cafe when im in Halifax. Best drinks and atmosphere in halifax
Love this place ???????? great coffee and plenty of awesome vegan options
Great coffee
So many vegan options!!! The late night menu is so good! I love this place. They even serve alcohol!
Cosy place, with friendly staff and good coffee. It's nothing special though.
Favourite place to hang out, study or grab a quick coffee. Great staff, great atmosphere, amazing playlists, great food and drink. Really nothing bad about the place! My #1 stop in halifax for coffee. Great variety for specialty diets as well.
Cool and funky cafe with great coffee.
Best coffee in the area. Great staff!!
You could give me anything off the menu and I would love it also amazing service. My fav cafe in Halifax !
Loved it
- the Vegan Mama Club is the best sandwich on Gottingen, hands down. - the cold brew is excellent. - the staff are friendly. - the space is nicely appointed. - queers welcome. - why eat anywhere else?
Cozy little spot to have a tea or coffee and chat with friends.
Great Smooth Coffee, Welcoming Place and Great Service,very delectable BLT had to have two ,still haven't tried my date square yet but nice four bite size,enjoy.
They help the homeless ! They give out chips for coffee and a bagel to homeless people and shelters. The staff are very kind and the Nook is very nice.
Coffee was old not as good as my last visit which was about a month ago.
Good food and coffee, cozy atmosphere. The decor is interesting and it seems to attract a trendy crowd.
Wow fast, fresh, delicious, healthy, food with perfect service. Loved it ! Keep it up Nook you people are going places.
Decent coffee, great little snacks
It is a great place to relax work on homework if ur in collage. Or do work on ur computer and have a coffee,a bite to eat or a drink.
Some of the pastries are ok , not a bad place
Awesome Nachos and a commendable Token program....well done!!
I enjoyed my experience there, the atmosphere was clean and cozy. The service was very good, they were welcoming and offer to go above and beyond what is required. I will be definitely be coming back!
Friendly people
Very good drinks, really enjoy their hot cocoa during chilly weather. Not enough seating options available in the cafe for how much foot traffic they get
Such a cute cafe. Food is great too. Great atmosphere.
Great coffee shop! Super fresh breakfast sandwiches and the coffee was delicious. My favorite part of starting my morning while I was visiting. Go check em out!
Community orientated coffee nook...primo!
