Sparrows Nest in Mid Sussex - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

visited the Nest for a cream tea. The place is charming, relaxed atmosphere, with very friendly staff who just wanted to please. The cream tea was served, all fresh, with a wide selection of sandwiches, cakes and jams. Had so much had to take half home. Excellent service and value for money. Look forward to going back !

A great spot for breakfast. It was my Friends birthday and we celebrated it with great food and service. We had loaded bagels and a cooked breakfast that was washed down with smoothies , hot chocolate and mermaid lattes. It was very homely and friendly,

I took my neice to this dog friendly cafe where I have eaten before. We ordered two jacket potatoes having seen the diners at a nearby table with theirs. The other tables' food looked delicious. Unfortunately ours wasn't. The accompanying salad, coleslaw and fillings were all great but the potatoes were not. They were very small, and one was cold and the other over microwaved so thatvonly about a half was edible. We mentioned this as we were leaving, not having been checked on whilst eating, and the response was very dismissive. Definitely not what I expected. Having looked at recent reviews it looks like something needs to happen to get this place back up to its previous standard. Very disappointed.

Almost immediately on arriving and whilst looking in the display cabinet to see what I'd like, a very rude man kept shouting "can I help" jeez man, give me a chance to decide what I'd like!! Massively overpriced and coffee was tiny. Waiting time is ridiculous whilst young girls, presumably members of staff stood sniggering behind the counter. Such a shame for a small town coffee shop to have such poor custome service. Other reviews appear to concur with this.

Very overpriced for quality and portion size! The coffees were small and tasteless, the cake dry & bland. Staff seem to struggle to manage more than 5 customers at a time.

Called in for coffee and cake towards the end of the afternoon. Place was almost empty which should have been a warning sign in hindsight. Charged £14.80 for a black Americano, an oat Cappuccino (which was undrinkable), a dry brownie and a dry scone. Absolute rip off! And the place looks like it could do with a good clean. The two young girls working there were very pleasant though.

Another reviewer has said they do not like to be negative about a local independent café and I feel the same way but Nest has much competition on this historic and prestigious high street and needs to up its game. Although the coffee and toasted tea cakes were good enough and the young server very pleasant, I have rated it as below average because of the untidy and unclean surroundings. There are some apparently professionally taken photos of pets advertising a photographer but all untidily displayed on a notice board. Two new ice cream trolleys have been added but the indoor one is taking up valuable seating space and is piled up with cardboard boxes. The drinks fridge is also piled with detritis. I needed to use the toilet and noticed that the inside of the door has not been painted or cleaned for years. It is covered in grime. A spray of bleach and some elbow grease or a quick lick of paint would remedy this easily. Finally, I heard a conversation about the owner hoping to open in the evenings but needing a reliable chef. Unfortunately, I cannot imagine this happening or being a success. What a shame!

I found our lunch to be overpriced and basic especially for the size of the jacket potato and the little toastie received. The smoothies were great and staff were brilliant. We were a little concerned to find out from a staff member that has since left that the owner records everything on the premises including conversations between staff and customers. I understand that CCTV is important to businesses but why the audio? You cannot record conversations between members of the public. This isn't legal and will put staff on edge surely? It puts us off from coming back I'm afraid.

I should have read the reviews before stopping here - I've had the worst ever carrot cake, dry and terribly sugary. While the sweetness is a personal preference, the dryness made me wonder how old it was. My iced latte had a tiny bit of ice in it only so was more of a cold-ish latte than anything else. The place itself was messily arranged and unfortunately not comfy at all. My disappointment is even bigger as I was charged over £8 for coffee and cake. Avoid.

Used to love this place, but hadn't been for a while but recently went in and there were flies everywhere, oat milk iced late had 3 small ice cubes in it and cost over £5! The place looks very cluttered and messy. Shame as it used to have a lovely atmosphere and cosy and welcoming feel always filled with people. Now its empty of people and feels like a cheap cafe and tatty. Definitely gone downhill. The prices have rocketed and it's not worth the prices. I wouldn't return or recommend unfortunately. Such a shame .

I am so sad to be leaving such a poor review for a local independent cafe & somewhere that used to be my number one go to in town. The standard of this place has seriously dropped, they serve budget food sold at high prices, dressed up with a bit of rocket or Aldi coleslaw. Afternoon tea made with Iceland and Aldi cakes (not an assumption, a confirmed fact). The owner talks to his staff, in front of customers, like they are disposable. I am saddened to see that he has since expanded and bought another local cafe. It’s mostly young girls he has working for him and you can see they are not happy with how they are treated, but most I’m guessing too scared to say anything. I actually asked one, last time I was there, if he always spoke to them like that and she told me ‘that was nice compared to normalz’. Not a nice man. Won’t be buying my coffee and lunch from there anymore.

We had a great afternoon tea (our son and daughter in law bought us a voucher for an Xmas gift).They kindly made up 2 vegan afternoon teas and 2 regular teas.The food was really delicious and the staff very friendly and professional. Thank you all !

The Nest has gone from a lovely place to eat to below average. I ordered the cheesy beans on toast and a cappuccino. Really that should have been easy. Cappuccino - great, loved the grated chocolate on top. But the beans were awful in every way. I’m not sure what brand was used, but they were a very odd colour, sort of very pale yellowy-orange. The toast was still bread and the whole thing was tepid at best. There was an accompanying small salad with lettuce that had seen better days. I realise that I should have sent it back at the time, but was hungry and needed to eat. Such a shame as this used to be a nice place to eat and I didn’t think I could go wrong with beans on toast!

Most surprising was that we have got the bill without breaking down the cost and including the non compulsory service (without known %). Scrabbled eggs were dry, smoothie and coffees were very good.

Lovely food but atmosphere was ruined by the managers hostile attitude towards the staff and blatant disrespect towards them. The usual staff are lovely but his behaviour towards them clearly made them and myself feel uncomfortable.

It was a miserable November lunchtime but was made brighter by the very friendly helpful staff and lovely food.

Both the service and food were immaculate. There are no complaints when it comes to the perfectly cooked and fresh bacon, the staff were extremely polite and provided to my family's needs.

We "happened" on the Nest today unexpectedly as did not expect to be in East Grinstead and were delighted with our discovery. A delightful cafe with wonderful breakfast and lunch options. Our 'loaded bagel' and cappuccino were delicious. They catered to our dog with water...

We have visited this cafe many times and the food has always been good, however we went there for lunch today and sadly the quality of the food and service have seriously deteriorated. The prices have almost doubled and portion sizes have been reduced. A...

Called for breakfast: not knowing the area we relied on Tripadvisor. The scrambled egg portion size was very small served on a single slice of toast. The tea pot for two was large enough to fill the supplied coffee cups a single time. We avoided...

Food was nice and staff were friendly but prices have doubled (toasted sandwich used to be £4 and now £7.95) and I would not say it’s worth the price anymore for just a toastie..

Used TripAdvisor to find somewhere for a light snack/lunch and I agree with all the good reviews. Comprehensive menu and the cafe was nice & clean

Popped in for lunch; haven't been for a few months and in that time prices have gone up but the quality of my sandwiches hasn't improved. You pay more for less in fact. Very disappointed

Been going here for years through the many owners that have been and gone … it’s still the best hot chocolate in town. I just WISH they’d do something about the furniture, it really cheapens the feel of the place, it could be very cute,...

Piles of bacon, beautiful bread and excellent coffee to go with the food. Friendly service, too. Now adding more to get to 100 characters!!

Nice little coffee shop with friendly staff....small outdoor seating area.......new management as friendly as the previous.

Had an awesome bacon and egg sandwich. Amazing coffee and I’m a coffee snob!! Lovely atmosphere and staff. My favourite coffee shop in East Grinstead.

Visited the cafe today with my family and were greeted by an extremely friendly member of staff which was quite refreshing and added to the an enjoyable experience. It was coming to the end of the day but we were not rushed or hurried out....

I have been going to the Nest Cafe for 1 year now and it is one of the best if not the best cafe I have been to in the UK. The coffee is brilliant and the food is really great because they do great...

I love their bacon sandwiches and the coconut latte is delicious. So friendly here. I can recommend this cafe. They kept going even during the lockdown.

Its interesting place to go for having tea or coffe or lunch. It’s small cafe on high street, behind the monument. Its very easy to get here. We park our car at waitrose and walk 3 minutes. The food selection were limited but all look...

We paid a couple of visits to Nest this week. Nice to be able to sit outside in the shade. Good quality coffees, followed by freshly cooked brunch. Friendly service by all staff. We’re newbies to East Grinstead, and it’s clearly a popular place for locals.

We have been regular customers since moving to the town 5 years ago but have not visited ANY restaurants since March but have started to venture out this week. We were looking forward to an iced coffee sitting outside and were tempted by neighbouring establishments that have nicely set up outside areas but decided to stay loyal to our favourite. Wish we hadn’t - we were shocked to watch the server clear tables but NOT CLEAN THE TABLES between customers. You have been allowed to reopen on the understanding that proper precautions are taken to product YOUR customers. Will not be returning anytime soon.

Delightful rather Old English setting. Order at reception and our tea was served promptly to a rather small table. Tables at the front and rear of the building. Excellent range of items.

I love coming here, as you just know what you get is just fresh, healthy and really tasty. I love the smoke salmon and avocado on sour toast and the lattes are just so good! The staff are friendly and will do a combination if you want to mix it just a little. Its a perfect setting to relax and chat with your friends and puts caffe Nero to shame as it is spotlessly clean!

I went to the nest this morning and had avocado on toast with salmon. The avocado was scarce and tasted as though it was frozen.The salmon didn't taste fresh either. Service not great. If all they can offer is food that tastes frozen we Will not be going back.Very disappointed.

As usual the service & quality excellent, a good choice of foods & beverages on the menu. I notice it was up for sale on a site. Well I will be really sorry to see the Nest go & disappointing another excellent run place going! Whoever takes this one on needs to do as they do as they are always packed

Called in around 2pm for late lunch. Had the most delicious smashed avocado on granary toast with feta and warm crispy bacon. Fab coffee. Very friendly and efficient team. Highly recommend

This place 😍 everyone is always welcome and friendly, food is amazing and it is just the kind of cafe you want to have around the corner from your house so you can pop in every day!

Love this cozy cafe, they do a lovely choice for breakfast, biggest problem is what to go for. Staff are great and always pleased to see you.

Love coming here for a recharge, there is often something new and inviting on the menu. The cakes and scones are delicious - I can't believe someone said they were frozen, they quite clearly are fresh (my grandparents were bakers)! I am very picky with the coffee I drink and I love the blend they use here from Bean Smitten. In all honesty, it can be a little slow when they are busy as they have such a small area to prepare the food but it is worth the wait.

My husband and I found this little gem of a caffe. You might miss it if you don't look properly. Right in the heart of the Old High street near the War Memorial. Nice English breakfast, with fresh avocados and streaky bacon and the coffee tastes really well. Being Italian means I am unfortunately picky about my coffee, however the cappuccino and macchiato were really nice, coffee has a hint of chocolate notes, nice touch. Their roasted brand is locally sourced which makes the experience even better for me. Highly recommend.

Very charming location, creative breakfast! High quality! We found it in TripAdvisor. Perfect coffee. Very fresh. Fast service even it was almost fullhouse. I can definitely recommend it

This has become my preferred coffee spot in East Grinstead these days. The staff are friendly, the coffee top notch & if we’re stopping for lunch they always have something my husband can eat (gluten & dairy free).

I love this tea room and often pop in for lunch or occasionally tea and cake. The food is delicious and there is a good range. The only very slight problem I have is that they have squeezed in lots of small tables which can feel a bit crowded, although it is a good idea when there are several people as they can be pushed together. Cannot fault the food or range of teas.

As a regular visitor to this cafe, it is safe to say Nest’s food is consistently delicious with friendly service and a delightful atmosphere. Tucked away at the top of town, this cafe is a hidden gem that offers a unique variety of food. The general layout of the cafe, with both the ground level floor and the cellar, is brilliantly done. It is always a pleasure to eat here, or even to just come in for coffee. It is brilliant for kids, offering both simple and more interesting foods with unique flavours. Also offers gluten free options, which is a huge plus for those with coeliac disease or just general gluten allergies. The Perfect Place!

Having had delicious coffee and cake at this delightful cafe on numerous occasions, we decided to have a bite of lunch yesterday (Saturday 17/08/19). To say we were disappointed was an understatement. We opted for avocado on malted bloomer with salmon. It arrived after a 30 min wait, by which time our coffee and tea were cold as they were served straight after we ordered. The malted bread was very small with a light spread of avocado and a minimal amount of salmon, topped with a few rocket leaves - we were gobsmacked at how little there was for the cost of £6.50 per portion! No side salad nor crisps! For the price, the portion Should be bigger; we felt robbed. Needless to say, we were still very hungry afterwards and we’re not big eaters. We won’t be having lunch here again, which is a shame. Whilst waiting for our lunch to arrive, we witnessed a member of staff wipe a spillage from the floor with blue towel roll then used the same piece to wipe down the table - it made me feel physically sick!!! I expected her to return to anti-bac the table, but no! Training on health and hygiene definitely needed.

Had their house salad with Halloumi - so tasty. Loved the sound of practically everything on their menu. Was hoping for some ginger and rhubarb cake which we had a while back but settled for a dream bar - flapjack with caramel nuts etc. All very tasty. Tables a little close together but means more people can enjoy their lovely food.

Came here yest with a friend. Both had yum toasted sandwiches. I had ham and cheese. Homemade chutney was also very good. Earl grey vanilla tea was a first and very nice too. Staff very friendly. Looked popular. Held back on the delicious cakes on display!

The cafe is small with several tables spread over their two rooms. The space between the tables is quite small but the space has a feeling of intimacy. I found it a pleasant place to chat with my friend over a cup of tea and coffee. My cup of tea was just fine. I had Earl Grey flavoured with Vanilla. Personally I would have preferred the tea without the vanilla flavour. There was a choice of teas with exotic sounding names in splendid looking tins. However, I don’t drink coffee or tea under normal circumstances and would have preferred fresh mint tea or something similar but there wasn’t that choice. However, I will be visiting again because I found it a pleasant place to be.

Met a business colleague here mid morning as it was empty and we wanted somewhere quiet. They've recently advertised they do the best flat whites in town and, as that's my colleague's drink of choice, we thought it'd be a good stop off. Sadly, it wasn't, our coffees were burnt, not well made and not particularly nice. The guy serving was nonchalant, came across a bit arrogant and not particularly interested in serving, more interested in chatting with someone he knows.

Stopped by for lunch, nice selection of sandwiches and cakes, service was efficient and central location with outdoor seating

Having seen some of the adverts for this place on Facebook, the photographs looked very pleasing so we thought we'd give it a try. I am a professional baker and looked forward to trying their fresh baked scones and cakes. However I was very disappointed as the scones are (obviously to me) not freshly baked, but seem like they are frozen. You can tell a freshly baked scone from the texture. The cakes also did not taste fresh to me. The tea was very basic, The shop itself is very cramped with lots of little tables, no doubt to increase customer numbers but I felt very claustrophobic. Id hate to see a mother try to get in here with a pram! It seems like it is 'trying too hard' to excel in lots of different areas but not doing particularly well in any of them.

You can always rely on the nest to serve excellent food, freshly cooked and always with a smile. It is a great place for breakfast, brunch or a light lunch.

I called in for a drink and cake , actually watched a girl rinse my glass under running water , then wiped dry with a dirty dishcloth (blue) which was on the draining board dried inside and out, whilst we sat there another girl waitress walked round the corner and wiped her hands on this same cloth, then another lady used it to wipe the counter down,

I come to East Grinstead a coupleof times a month and always try to make it to Nest for a coffe and maybe lunch. Staff are really friendly and helpful, coffee amazing and as for the quiche...WOW! Highly recommended, bu don't all come as it will get to crowded and the quiche will sell out fast!!

We were looking for somewhere to have breakfast in East Grinstead and after a walk around we settled on this place. The staff were young and friendly and accommodated us. We had the pancakes which were very good. The coffee was good too. If we were in the area again we would return. Thanks.

Visited for a quick lunch its a small bistro which was full them, a little old fashioned but if that is what you like you'll be at home. The is nothing to rave about standard home made panini's, batch brought bagels and a soup or two. Good for what it is not not 10/10.

This has been a religious experience. I have been enlightened by Andrew and his team. I shall never know the happiness that his coffee and cake has bestowed upon my unworthy self. Thank you.

Situated in a pretty little building on the High Street Nest promised alot but failed miserably. A huge blackboard detailing what was on offer promised just what I was after crispy bacon sourdough roll we were going to have cake too but none of it on display appealled. We found a table at the back and couldn't help but notice the odd flooring it felt like it had lifted and was very lumpy. Coffee was ok , the waitress came and explained that they only had one roll left as I can't eat white bread my wife had a sandwich and I had the "sourdough" roll. Just one look at it and you could tell it wasn't sourdough so I just ate the two small salty streaky bacon rashers. There was also a greasy smell in the cafe too which wasn't pleasant. We left very quickly never to visit it again

I love this place and eat here at least twice a week sometimes more, the staff are super lovely and have got to know me, they greet me by my name and they know what I like and don't like and have been known to do things slightly off the menu, I always feel welcome here and can highly recommend the salads, quiche and specials.

The shop is a little small and tables are quite close together, however the food and service is really good :)

They don't have a great variety on the menu for breakfast but it is very good and great value for mony. 5 minute walk from Travelodge.

The 3 staff seemed too busy to serve or even acknowledge me after I entered, no smile nothing. I have never been ignored before in a small tea room like this.

I ate lunch here with my family as it had been heavily recommended. The food was lovely, and they really made an effort to make even a sandwich taste and look yummy. If you want a simple yet delicious lunch or snack in East Grinstead this is the best place to go.

Always delicious food and friendly staff. It's our 1st choice every time we eat out in East Grinstead.

Have been here many times with my son after work, the staff are always very friendly, good choice of cakes, and the bacon sandwiches are great!, closes at 5pm so it always good for a quick meet up before journey home

It is a cafe so there is not a huge menu but there are very good vegetarian, gluten free options which is great. The food is well presented and very, very tasty.

Fancied lunch out of the office and a wander around town so tried this cafe but can't say I was impressed and wouldn't hurry back. It wasn't particularly busy but I seemed to wait an overly long time for a simple sandwich and cuppa. The staff weren't really personable and it felt a bit complacent. The sandwich itself was ok but seemed like cheap bread and ingredients, not really worth the hefty price tag. Coffee was poor, odd flavour and bitter so not to my liking. They seemed to have a good range of teas on offer but I didn't get time to try one. Left feeling generally quite disappointed, sadly.

Went here on the back of the reviews. 1.30pm on a Saturday so was v busy when we got in but they had a couple of spare tables. So assumed they could cope with the orders. 2 coffees and one Apple juice plus still water took 15 minutes to deliver. Food 40 minutes some toasted sandwiches and pancakes. Toasted sandwiches were really average. Bog standard supermarket bread and not well seasoned fillings. To be fair the staff were running around but clearly too many tables for the kitchen and staffing levels. Saw an earlier review from April exactly the same experience so it is one thing to have issues but two not to learnt from them.

I visited today for lunch. The place looked nice and inviting so we stayed for a bite. After waiting at the till point for nearly 10 mins to Order we sat down and waited. The place was busy and tbf the team said it would be a 20 min wait for food. We agreed but after waiting 15 mins for the drinks to arrive I wasn’t impressed. 35 mins later the sandwiches finally arrived to very hungry customers. Well disappointed doesn’t really sum it up. Being served basic cheap supermarket bread in a place like this concerns me. The only good part was the gammon Ham. We didn’t sample the cakes which looked nice due to having spent an hour plus having a sandwich and a drink each. If you can’t staff the place when busy then reduce the number of covers and provide great service to a few less people. The staff were working hard and were friendly, as ever it’s not their fault it’s the short sighted mgt. I would need an incentive to visit again shall we say!

Our book club meet regularly once a month at the nest, they serve excellent beverages, scones, porridge.

This isn’t a veggie place but it serves lots of veggie options. Interesting well made simple food on the High St. I didn’t find it to be dingy. 3 outside tables as well as inside. Does good business doing takeaways too.

Saturday morning breakfast pancakes with berry’s was very nice. The flat white coffee the best I have had in the area.

We came here for lunch today. We had two chicken salads and they were amazing! We asked for tap water but it would have been nicer in a jug. I will go back very soon for the food!

A lovely, tea shop serving teas/coffees and lovely cakes. Well behaved dogs welcome, a great place to stop for a cuppa.

Went to this lovely little cafe for breakfast. The service was excellent and the food was delicious, some of the best scrambled eggs I've had. The cafe was quiet so I cannot comment on how it may be during a busier time but the staff appeared to be very efficient. The tea was also very good. My husband had a bacon sandwich and coffee which he was more than happy with. Would definitely recommend Nest!

Never been here before but we visited one weekend in May as we were in the area and our normal tea shop in East Grinstead was full up that day. First impressions was that it was a bit dingy and “underground” like, which made it feel quite dark and depressing in our opinion. The food was pretty good (we had cake and coffee), but I wasn’t a huge fan of their coffee. It seemed quite bitter and unpleasant and I couldn’t finish it. I’m not sure if that’s how their coffee always tastes or whether it was just a dodgy cup but I wouldn’t go there again. I would have said something at the time but the lady behind the till was too busy talking to someone who I presume was a friend and I couldn’t get her attention. I’m sure this place could be quite nice but it’s just a bit gloomy for us and I prefer a fresher tasting coffee.

Situated on the south side of the High Street, near the western corner, It;s set back from the road & half hidden by the "Cook Shop Building". Only had a coffee and scone. Although busy, the service was quick and genuinely friendly. Other patrons told me that the cooked food is of good quality, but I've not yet partaken of that portion of the menu. Toilet was spotless. I shall return definitely. Far superior to any chain outlet or the lacklustre offerings from round the corner.

Popped in with an unwilling teenager and reluctant husband as my suggestion of a change from other places we had been before. Result was that we would all vist again. Tuna toastie, chicken salad, felafel salad and two slices of cake (one was huge) as well as drinks all delivered with kindness and speed. Yummy dressing and interesting additions on the salad - pomegranate and radishes both appreciated and portion size good for a light bite. Reasonable valueand pleasant venue - would have cost us the same in similar settings around town.

I have been to the Nest many times - as its one of my favourite places to have a coffee or some lunch in East Grinstead - the staff are extremely attentive and the food is great. However, I visited recently and left feeling disappointed. They have changed the layout and added (at a guess) double the quantity of tables to the 1st level - which makes it feel very cramped and difficult to navigate around. We say in the back of the 1st level, and were constantly being bustled whilst people tried to squeeze in-between all the tables and chairs - especially by the people going to the toilet. I ordered some lunch, I was told the wait would be 20 minutes - and 40 minutes later my food still hadn't arrived - in my opinion - at a peak lunch time, now with all the additional tables, they cannot cope with the capacity for lunch orders in the kitchen.

This place gets full very quickly, so grab a table when you can. Had a delicious mocha this morning, and one of the tastiest cheese scones I've had for a long time.

Nest is a cosy coffee shop on the high street and the food is delicious. I have had the smoked salmon bagel multiple times and it is so tasty. The food is a really reasonable price and the staff are all very friendly. Definitely recommend going here for a coffee date instead of Starbucks or Cafe Nero.

Lovely cafe for lunch or just to have a coffee and a pastry in.The staff are very friendly. It is always warm and cosy. Lovely food at a very reasonable price.

Great cosy atmosphere, the staff are lovely and they offer dairy free alternatives. I had an oat milk coffee and an avocado and lime cake and my friend had the avocado and canelini beans on toast and it was delicious! Nice to have an independent cafe with some character in my home town. Pretty good value for money, not too expensive, also they allowed my friend's small dog to come in with us. I'm not sure what their dog policy is but they said it was ok if he was well behaved.

Great service yummy food friendly staff and very comfy. Lovely food yummm I would defiantly recommend here as it cosy cafe to have a chat with friends and family and great food and coffee and tea Local in East Grinstead

Such a lovely light lunch here today. The Nest has an interesting variety of lunches, snacks and cakes. Everything is...

Café encantador con un personal amable y servicial, y una taza de café muy bueno. Me impresionó que tenían un bol de agua helada en el exterior para perros.

Paramos aquí para el buen café. También pedimos un bollo de queso con textura buena. Chocolate café comprado hecha en Sussex. Ambiente acogedor en el sótano para sentarse.

Nos acabamos de mudar a la zona y quería probar una cadena de café para el desayuno. Encontrar este sitio por casualidad explorando la High Street en una tarde de domingo y estaba decidida a volver, ya que parecía muy acogedor. No me decepcionó.

Met my friend here for coffee. Smart decor, pleasant atmosphere and friendly staff. Unfortunately we were disappointed though as the coffee was bitter - not very nice at all. If we go back we'll be ordering something else.

Staff are friendly with a sense of humour food is top notch not a big coffee drinker but yes there coffee is superb worth stopping for a cuppa or a bacon toasted sandwich yes i would recommend this place with a good seating area to sit in

Met my best friend for lunch. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The food is great. We shared sandwiches as we couldn't decide what to have as the selection was great. We also shared a slice of cake which was simply divine. I agree with other reviews that the coffee is bitter. I just added a couple of sweeteners. My friend also thought the coffee was bitter. It's a shame a smooth option is not also offered but hey ho you can't have everything. The shop also offers chocolate etc to buy which is a nice touch and the milk chocolate buttons are great! We would return and plan to do so this coming weekend. Very happy customers.

How lucky are we in East Grinstead to have such a lovely tea/coffee shop. As an advocate of supporting local, independent shops I am delighted to recommend The Nest.Friendly, great service, great food, nice ambience - a good place to catch up.You are made to feel welcome and valued and the prices are reasonable.Shall return with another friend soon.

Your typical English tea room with an accent on healthy eating. Coffee, tea and cakes ok. However the overall standard was let down by the scrambled egg which was sadly one of the worst I have eaten. Dry and crumbly with no taste
