Great little cafe situated at the bottom of a block of units. Friendly staff and owner. I went there for breakfast on a Sunday morning (they open at 8:00am) and got a nice seat inside.

The menu is a bit limited with a couple of Turkish inspired dishes. The breakfast is well cooked and a good portion and the coffee is good too.

Unfortunately, the service (while extremely friendly) is bit slap dash with my second coffee just forgotten while the staff gossiped. Still, I will definitely be back but please spend a little more time thinking about the customers and a little less about yourselves, oh and you have to ask for water.

I had breakfast at Nest today with my family. We are pretty tough to please when it comes to food and I must say Nest will be our newly found favorite. Great food and real value for money. Friendly and considerate staff. Intimate space but warm atmosphere.

Great coffee. Delicious eggs (middle eastern style) and sandwiches. Fab outddor area : a Great spot to meet friends and enjoy the sun. The new nest team : David & Arman : are a great addition to the Potts Point cafe scene.

Went back here after not having been for over a year. Terribly disappointing. Sausages and bacon appeared to have been microwaved and the roast tomato was 2 small slices, perhaps, slightly warmed on a hot plate? Will not return. Overpriced for the poor quality.

Wow, what a difference a day makes! This place (which has been a favorite for years) has obviously changed hands recently. What a loss to the Victoria St. brunch circuit. Too bad.

I highly recommend the caramelised pears on sour cherry toast. What a way to start the day! Staff forgot my second coffee order but cheerfully offered to give me a takeaway, free of charge. I'll be back, but in warmer weather! The sun never shines on nest, so, perhaps, they could follow the recent trend of placing throws over outdoor chairs to keep diners warm. Fantastic!

Update November 2008: Watch out, management has changed! Cafe now empty and strange burning/greasy smell is around. I'm sad I didn't have a chance to say goodbye!

Went here for breakfast with friends and was sorely disappointed. Never thought that ordering a simple ham+cheese+tomato toasted sandwich could be so difficult. After having to give detailed instructions to the waiter on how to make this (oh so difficult!) meal no less than four times, I was finally presented with a ham+cheese+aioli toasted.

When I sent it back it was returned to me with two soggy slices of tomato added, and still with the aioli... how hard is it?? The ingredients were scant, and poor quality. The bread was soggy, and it was poorly made. For top dollar you should really expect more.

When we got our bill we had been overcharged on three items, and it took the guy two more goes to get it right. Service was slow as a wet week. How they can justify a 10% Saturday surcharge I have no idea. We shall definitely not be going back.

Great breakfast/lunch venue. Every time I eat here I am amazed at the level of care that goes into the breakfasts.

Slightly more expensive than other places in the surrounding areas but that is more than made up for by the organic produce and homemade quality of the food served.

Worth the trip particularly on a sunny day to take advantage of the new outdoor dining area.
