Enjoy exceptional service and a friendly atmosphere at Nook. It's a wonderful spot for enjoying a delicious meal while catching up with old acquaintances over lunch. Nook is located just south of the Prima County Public Library on East Congress Street. It opened in 2015 and has become a trendy eatery that serves up New American cuisine. Owners Nikki and Matt Thompson along with Todd Anderson are fellow Tucsonans who love their community. Local artists have work showcased throughout this contemporary restaurant. Nook also prides itself on serving up locally sourced food. Try the Godfather Benedict with prosciutto, arugula, poached egg hollandaise and balsamic drizzle for breakfast, or come down during lunch for a green corn tamale pie with cabbage salad. It offers take-out service and is open for breakfast and lunch during the week. This restaurant also serves brunch on Saturday and Sunday.

    The blueberry scones are the best anywhere. The service was excellent, the food is quite ample so sharing is a good idea, but get a side of the smashed potatoes.

    Have been going for a couple of years. Always very good. Servers may come and go but the culture remains.

    We had a pleasant brunch before a show at Fox Theater. The menu is creative and varied. We both enjoyed our egg dishes. My husband ordered very soft poached eggs, but his came identical to my medium ones. This is not a big problem as the eggs were good.

    Food was amazing but the wait time for your food to be served was unexceptable. Had reservations for 11:15am on a Sunday and did not have food on our table until 12:15. We had tickets to the Nutcracker ballet at 1pm and barely made it on time.

    Been here many times. Simply a very inviting setting from the owners to the employees always welcoming. Not your usual menu which differentiates it from your usual breakfast/lunch. Pancake s? Yes. Burgers? Yes, but so much more.

    The food at this restaurant was absolutely amazing, … but the experience was overshadowed by poor service. It took over an hour to get our meal, which was frustrating - we even had reservations On top of that, the host was unwelcoming and rude. While the quality of the food was great, the slow service and awful attitude from the staff made it difficult to enjoy the meal. I wouldn’t recommend it unless you’re prepared to wait and dine with good company.

    Stayed downtown Tucson and was looking for a more affordable breakfast alternative that the Leo Kent. Nook came up, so we gave it a shot and were not disappointed. Terrific food and service. Fresh and cooked to order. Highly and heartily recommended.
