Beautiful cafe with an fantastic atmosphere and easily the best food in the city. The staff & owners are friendly, hard working and great at what they do. Give yourself a much deserved treat and stop in at the Birds Nest!
Warm and inviting interior, really well laid out menu with old favourites. Coffee is great, and prices are fantastic. We ordered the Belgian waffles (with cookie butter) and we both said they were some of the best we've ever had. Downtown really needs a place like this, we will be repeat customers!

⭐️8.5/10
What we got:
- ham and brie panini ($9.50)
- roast beef panini ($9.75)

If you’re ever in Halifax, the paninis at Bird’s Nest Cafe are a must try! They have many different options so you’ll find something for everyone. The bread is toasty perfectly which gives each bite a perfect crunch. The cafe also serves hot drinks, cold drinks, breakfast wraps, sandwiches, soups, pastries and more!

Really nice cafe in downtown Halifax. Great selections for breakfast and lunch, also for vegetarians.
Very friendly employees.
An absolutely delightful Café in downtown Halifax on Barrington Street. The staff were extremely quick, friendly, and welcoming. The coffee, latte, muffins, and cookie I got to go were enjoyed from home! An excellent array of different baked goods and meals. Sad it took me so long to finally stop into this Café having lived so close for so long. Great spot, definitely recommend
First impressions count and I love the vibe/decor of this place. Small and functional. Yeah, you can get a fancy coffee or tea or you can get a simple Red Rose at a reasonable price. The food looks good too but I didn't get to try it. Next time.
This is my first time visiting and it has been a pleasure. All the staff are very friendly and efficiently moving the line along. I took a seat upstairs and they brought my food quickly. I ended up on the phone so I didn't really notice my drink didn't come. When I waved someone down and they were very apologetic. They brought me a bigger drink and offered some baked goods for the delay. Mistakes happen everywhere, but they do service very well. I'll be back! Thanks!
Grabbed an Americano and cookie while walking around the area. The staff were so kind and welcoming. The cafe was so cute, with a handful of table/chairs throughout. Went late morning so it wasn’t too busy. The coffee was probably the best we had while in Halifax (we hit up several places over a few days).
Such a lovely place! Had a delicious black bean burger and latte. The staff working were so kind and welcoming. Will be back again!!
If there were 6 star reviews that's what we'd give. Great little breakfast spot serving, what was, the best breakfast we've had in Canada. Welcoming, friendly people that make breakfast enjoyable. Highly recommended.
Simple, cheap, and tasty. If your looking for a quick and easy place for a coffee and breakfast this is the spot. I had a cappuccino, a ham breakfast wrap, and a chocolate toffee cookie. I can all three were fantastic. The cookie was especially good!
Nice little local cafe for breakfast, brunch or lunch. Ordered the Avocado + Chimichurri eggs on toast which was a delicious and healthy choice for breakfast. Paired it with a latte which was nice and foamy. We sat on the tables just outside to enjoy the nice and sunny weather.
