Stopped in for some coffee and a treat this morning. Wonderful place. They have a huge coffee menu, they have adult beverages. This place stays open till midnight. There is a fantastic outdoor seating area, for those not to hot days. And best of all there is a huge selection of board games and enough plugs to satisfy the techies. The staff was super friendly. I will be visiting this place often. Thank you. Show less

Hello! I come to The Nook all the time, even since they had their old location. The coffees have a unique taste that is super great. However, I dislike that they started to close early.

Hello! I come to The Nook all the time, even since they had their old location. The coffees have a unique taste that is super great. However, I dislike that they started to close early. The Nook would stay opened until 2AM in the Fall of 2022, and then in 2023, it started to close at 12AM. Now it closes at 10PM. Furthermore, they do not update their hours during breaks. I am at the location now, and it says they are supposed to be opened at 7AM, but I have waited and it is now 8AM and nobody has opened the doors. I understand it is spring break for the students, but please notify individuals of the new hours. The new look is okay, but I preferred the old look of the nook better. Either way, it is a great place to hang out, study, and drink coffee! PS: Again, I went to the nook and it was closed. I understand it is Easter but please notify students and other individuals about when y’all are closing thanks. Show less

While the coffee was good, there seem to be some management issues with this shop. 1-Wifi was spotty at best. Reconnected three times and it still wouldn't work. 2-Ran out of most food items within an hour of opening 3-Only had one employee working who was supposed to take orders, process payments,...

While the coffee was good, there seem to be some management issues with this shop. 1-Wifi was spotty at best. Reconnected three times and it still wouldn't work. 2-Ran out of most food items within an hour of opening 3-Only had one employee working who was supposed to take orders, process payments, and make drinks by themselves. The line was out the door at one point. Overall a decent place, but higher-ups need to take better care of their employees and the shop. Show less

Just overheard a guy telling his date (probably to show off, which is WEIRD and not impressive at all...) "the service here is awful! AWFUL!" Sir, there is ONE barista working here. ONE. So I took one star off not for the barista but for the owner/manager understaffing this place just like everyone ... Read more

So I took one star off not for the barista but for the owner/manager understaffing this place just like everyone everywhere does. But the barista here today is VERY kind and VERY busy. Drinks can only be made so fast. Get a grip, dude. Also, it's December. Be kind to our service workers, everyone. they take so much abuse. Show less
