    Black Forest Hot Chocolate
    Samantha S.

    This was a delightful start to my day off work. Stared with a Black Forest hot chocolate at the recommendation of staff which helped with how cold it is out. It was delightful although the chocolate Level could have been upped in my opinion. I love a rich hot chocolate. However, with breakfast the lightness was kind of refreshing. For breakfast I ordered the pancakes with a side of fruit and also ordered a side of eggs and bacon. The eggs were good, but I'd probably order them scrambled light or soft next time. The bacon was perfectly crispy. NOW, the star of the show was the pancakes by far. I got the banana walnut ones. They were buttery and flavorful and delicious even without syrup. It's a great size stack of three and I'd definitely order them again. Overall a great experience and I'll be back!

    California Croissant with waffle fries

    Have been here before and liked it. Today I brought my mom for lunch. Love how bright and airy the dining is - was a little too chilly to eat outside. I love their croissants - so got a grilled chicken sammich. Mom got the California Chicken sammich on a croissant! Both were very good! I do wish they kept their sodas cool or cold. When you pour a warm Coke over ice it tends to water it down and it becomes flat. But they changed it out for a lemonade, so all was good!

    The service was 4/10! We weren't greeted as we entered the establishment! This was our first time in so we didn't know if we had to wait to be seated or if we just seated ourselves. The food overall 9/10! The Chicken Club Wrap was amazing but the scrambled eggs were bland! We loved the idea of The Lolly Waffles!!! The chicken was good as well! The restaurant decor was nice & neat! Dining area could've been a tab bit cleaner!

    This is a super cute cafe with some tables inside and some outside. You order at the counter and then they bring you your food. All the employees were very friendly and the service was quick despite how busy they were. The menu is pretty vegetarian-friendly which is always a plus. I had the Fresh Garden croissant sandwich, and it was SO good. The croissant was perfect, the eggs tasty, cheese melty, and the veggies were fresh and plentiful. The tater tots were perfectly crisp! They weren't salted, which I loved but my friends added salt to theirs. My friends all ordered meat sandwiches/wraps and enjoyed them. One got a side salad with hers and it was very large and fresh. I had an iced coffee which was good. We tasted a couple of the gelatos after we ate, but were too full to order any!

    The Nest Cafe is a brunch, sandwich place (which I love). Croissant sandwiches, lolly waffles, pancakes, toast and omelets for breakfast, and paninis for lunch, along with wraps and salads. They also serve a bunch of coffee, tea, smoothie, and mimosa options. And gelato!! I just ordered a California panini, and it was pretty solid. Although, it was a little smaller than I imagined for the price ($15). However, it did come with a side! They have indoor and outdoor seating, and a self-serve water and hot sauce station. You order inside and they give you a number to put on the table, so the server will bring your food out to you. The ambiance is that of a classic cafe, with joyous groups chattering, some people working on laptops. A nice place to catch up with a friend, or for a solo date.

    Pumpkin Spice Latte @tiffhuangry

    YAY TO THE NEST CAFE | we were running late but wanted a quick brunch bite so we stopped in to Nest Cafe right before closing (IM SO SORRY AGAIN) but they patiently took my order and even though I wasn't expecting much from the menu and my food, I was pleasantly surprised. My eye instantly fell on the lolly waffle (aka waffle sticks) so I ordered that with a side of pasta salad. Weird pairing? Maybe, but don't judge me because that pasta salad hit the spot. I also ordered a hot pumpkin spice latte since we were sitting outside on the patio with the pup (dog friendly!) and the latte art was perfection! Even though it was quick, I definitely will stop in again if I'm looking for a casual brunch in Alpharetta!

    Lolly Waffles with seasonal fruit
    Douglas C.

    A cafe style experience - where you order up front and take your card/number to your seat, and wait to be served. The place is kind of small, but comfortable. People will take tables quickly, so it's best for someone in your party to claim a place to sit while someone else orders. We truly went for the lolly waffles and were pleasantly surprised. You can order them in a variety of flavors, but we went with chocolate chip. They tasted just like Waffle House - which is one of our favorites. Very pleased and worth the trip to try.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE NEST CAFE! They have so many gluten free options and their food is amazing. The lattes are huge and delicious and the vibes inside and even outside the restaurant are awesome. Staff is super friendly even when they are slammed busy. I recommend everyone to Nest!

    Chai Latte and biscotti!

    Fantastic service Best and prettiest chai latte I have ever had ! Staff very friendly and knowledgeable.

    Blueberry pancakes with real maple syrup.
    Stephen S.

    As usual, great staff, food, service, vibe, shady outdoor tables, etc. My iced chai was at my outdoor table seconds after I sat down! I think I even got an extra blueberry pancake! I requested extra maple syrup and that also came quickly. I think it's real, not fake syrup like many places serve and they don't charge extra!!!

    Is this a good place to stay for extended focused laptop work or studying?

    There are a few places around the cafe to plug in your computer, otherwise you will want to have a full charge. Although there is room to work or study, it is more of a brunch restaurant, so they are looking to flip tables.

    Do you take reservations?

    Nope. You need to find the table. I suggest you to find a table while be on the line to order.

The restaurant itself is beautiful with a warm, modern aesthetic and comfortable seating. They also offer outdoor seating, which would be especially nice in good weather. I ordered the ribeye cooked medium rare, and it was prepared perfectly--tender, flavorful, and exactly how a steak should be done. The sides were equally good. I had the fire-roasted broccolini and a salad with a house-made blue cheese dressing that was excellent. Service was fast and attentive, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. As someone who recently moved to the Southeast from the San Francisco Bay Area and spends a lot of time traveling for work, I'm always looking for memorable meals on the road. While the hotel itself was fairly typical for a business stay, the restaurant was easily the highlight. Insider tip: If you're staying at the Hilton Alpharetta, it's absolutely worth dining here rather than leaving the property. Overall, Harth was a fantastic dining experience and I'd gladly return the next time I'm in the area--even just for the restaurant.

That aside it is made to look European but theme is all over the place. German/Austrian interior, with Italian and French food. The language tape in the bathroom is however teaching Korean and Chinese... I dined here about half a dozen times. It is a nice place with mixed results. Sometimes it is really good, other times not so much...in particular I could say Hummus is good, White Hot Chocolate, Bosco cake is delicious (imported from Italy). Service is good and servers are polite and friendly. Management is not great. If they are busy they will have a wait which could range up to an hour. In my experience one hour wait could turn out to be 10 minutes. Other times 40 minutes wait is actually 50 minutes. As I live close by I have attempted to call and put myself on the wait list and arrive when they are ready but management would not budge. This will be on their terms with zero flexibility... They also sell cakes but cakes are always turned away from the customer...I have not seen this anywhere else...it really points to the fact that management has little experience in hospitality industry.... Lastly this place does not accept cash. Not sure why since they are located in super safe area. Consequently a 5-star review is really a three star and perhaps I am being very generous here...
