Nook Café

Stopped by this little gem on Tuesday for a quick lunch and this morning for breakfast and might I say it was one of the best lunches and breakfasts I’ve ever had. THE Nook Café not to be confused with the Nook Express was amazing from their quick and easy menus to their made fresh ingredients. For lunch I had the BLTA on a Multigrain bread it was perfect the bacon was on point as well as the avocado. For breakfast I had a quick 2 eggs over easy breakfast served with bacon and two DELICIOUS HASH BROWN TRIANGLES MMMMM MMMM these by far are the best hash browns I’ve had in my entire life. My boyfriend had the Cuban sandwich for lunch and mentioned it was delicious similar to portos if you’ve had them you know how delicious they are for breakfast he had the chorizo burrito served on a red tortilla. I stole a bite of his breakfast and I’ll add it tasted like a genuine burrito. I would definitely recommend this little café and my visits to the linq will definitely have a Nook detour

Not bad place for quick bite or coffee.
Coffee was really tasty.
Crepes savory were not bad. Little bit too much cheese for us other then that okay.
Chamomile tea is not bad either.
One time stop for me though

Soft and crunchy sandwiches, super fresh salad ingredients, and cheerful staff make this little café quite a delight. Licked our plates clean and looking forward to coming again!

Love this place!!! Definitely worth walking through the Linq Hotel to sit down and have a bite. They have two locations the first location you’ll pass is a café. If you continue to walk past the elevators past Club Tattoo you will find the restaurant. I’ve had pizza there, southwest salad, and my friend had a turkey BLT. I almost forgot I had a Gyro on two occasions. All the food tasted fresh and delicious. The staff was extremely polite and very accommodating. They have more than enough options. You can also build your own salad if you wish. I highly recommend eating here!

Service was terrible– cashier was rude. She was so rude that I ended up canceling my order because I did not want to deal with attitude. Turns out, she did not even issue full refund and I was charged for an item I did not receive.

So why should you stop by a small quick-​serve eatery hiding in the narrow corridors of a middling hotel (The Linq) in the middle of the Vegas Strip? Well, for one the folks here make some yummy sandwiches, and for two, the food is reasonably priced when you consider some of the food prices in the vicinity. They make a devilishly good and spicy Chicken Bahn Mi sandwich, and the gyro was no less tasty. The sandwiches come with a bag of chips, which add a nice crunch to this simple meal. We were fond of the hibiscus tea, too (refills are $ 1). There are a few tables for diners, and the whole place is spotlessly clean. If you happen to be from New England, you might want to know they offer pizza including one plate made with Vermont cheese. What? No maple syrup?

Went there twice during my stay in Vegas, both positive experiences. Very nice staff. The first time i went and asked some questions about the food. I decided not to get anything because i just had dinner (i felt bad). However, the gentlemen just smile very friendly WITHOUT giving me any attitude. Therefore, i decided to go back and got something the second timw. The lady at the cashier was friendly too :)

Great spot. Get the Lamb & Beef Gyro. I had it twice in one day and it was great both times. It’s a tad on the pricy side, but you’re also on the strip, so it’s not higher than anything else, plus, it’s worth it. In exchange for that price tag you get great service, a clean place, and fresh tasting food. I’ll be returning as I work nearby.

This review is for the Nook Café (not Nook Express).
I ordered a pizza and a piece of cheesecake to go. The pizza was not thoroughly cooked through and the cheesecake was not refrigerated properly because the cheesecake and whipped cream on it was WARM therefore I was afraid to eat it. So after spending a small fortune and tossing everything in the garbage I obviously would not return to this place!

Pretty good sandwiches and not as crazy priced as some places in Vegas.
My boys had the meatball sandwich and liked it… I didn’t try it so I can’t vouch
I enjoyed the banh mi pork. I’d prefer it on a different roll though next time.
Good for a quick easy meal.

The long lines, poor process, they need a manager to look at improving the flow and process. Waiting 20 minutes for a crêpe and coffee after the long line wait to order is ridiculous. But, then you see their process in taking orders, making the food, and you just want to step in there to do it yourself. They need help.

Time: 11:17am/86°mostly sunny
Purpose: Wanted to try this place out ever since day one of arrival. After a night out waking up late wasn’t a option, but cuppa joe here is a must or else I get grumpy.
Set-​up: Located across from Purple Zebra bar about 50ft from four banks of elevator in the LinQ hotel lobby area. Café counter carried basket of snacks/​fruits along with last minute impulse buys. One end of counter has the Café Express counter for those just grab n go items. Mid way down a display section for pastries and cold case for premade refrigerated items. Couple of high chair along counter with some, but not lots of table for the proximity area mostly sits two. A television and CCTV above along with condiment/​utensil station self help. Wi-​Fi is strongest when seated first seat closes to TV at least for me it did, not one signal bar was drop. Very strong with about 5−6mbps bandwidth.
Staff: Around three workers all girl crew each with a specific task assigned. I walk up to counter before saying hi, I was immediately greeted with how’s your day going? These girls must be trained or they enjoy their job from their hearts, and of course I’m a guy. When I inquired about macaron she gave me one free of charge to taste. Whaaat? Free? Yes, it was! I thank her and place my order without any delay.
Cleanliness: Grade A, with Nevada health department requirements and certification posted. I can’t imagine a grade lower than a 100 for here. I even saw maintenance guy polishing a gold knob handle. This tells me that, it’s hospitality as its finest.
Eats/​Drinks: Went with the buy three get one free macaron deal at $ 1 each. Went ahead selected pistachio, green tea, passion fruit, and toasted black sesame. Out of the four my favorite was passion fruit and sesame. Least favorite green tea and pistachio because its too common now. Had them too many times so, i got bored of them, not that it wasn’t good. They were all expected to have slight exterior crunch and creamy center. In this case, it pass with two thumbs up. Wash it down with medium drip coffee nothing added as macarons provided enough sugar already $ 3.
Main Features: Crepes and macarons
Products/​Services: Premade sando, chip, fruit & yogurt, cereal, oatmeal, boil egg, salad, energy bar, danishes/​pastries, cookie, muffin, cupcake, crêpe, hot/​cold beverages, smoothie, fresh juices, coffee by LaDro/​tea by Art of Tea. Player rewards card accepted, free Wi-​Fi, coffee self help.
Punch Lines: Friendly, knowledgeable, engaging, brisk/​efficient, under a minute transaction, modest price, to-​go or counter seating, seats are minimal, light bites, zippy service, casual, nothing out of the ordinary, can’t go wrong, television, self help coffee (after paying).
Tradeoffs: Coffee is a little weak even getting dark roast, but food/​dessert makes up for the most part.
Final Thoughts: Place is in right location for people needing that cuppa joe first thing in morning. Good alternative if you don’t want to hit up Starbux or you may be the kind that drink any type of brew given to you. For me, its just ok for what it is. Can’t ask for more or less just a place that gets the job done and get you going for the day.

Initially, we wanted to eat at the restaurant upstairs but there was an hour wait so we settled with The Nook. Since it looked like your typical café off of a mall food court, I was a little hesitant at first. I ordered Rise and Shine crepes (Ham, eggs & cheese) with a large iced cold brewed coffee. My crepes was surprisingly good and filling, I thought my coffee turned out perfect too! Usually when I ordered iced coffee with creamer and sweetener, it’s either overwhelmingly sweet or drowned with so much creamer, it looked like I’m drinking milk instead.
My coffee was a little over $ 7, I think it was more than my food lol It is a little pricey BUT it’s Vegas!

Decided to check the Nook when I was in the Linq, menu looked good. So asked for a Nutella crêpe. The response was, oh sorry we don’t serve those 1 hour before closing. They close at 10. It was 9:03pm on Sunday night of memorial weekend!
Bad service! The reps can say sorry all they like, don’t advertise something you can’t sell customers! Never going again! Never referring my customers there either as this is bad service 101!

THIS PLACE IS YUUUUUUUUUMMY!
Their pizza is literally a screaming orgasm in your mouth. It’s probably one of the best pizza’s i’ve ever had. I forgot the name of it, but it had spinach, cheese, and more cheese! And, did I mention, it’s made fresh?! :D
The price is a tad bit high, but totally worth it. Definitely recommend anyone to come try this café.
I’d also like to mention their salads, which I’m not a huge fan of; their chicken salad was DELICIOUS. The chicken was almost as juicy as my a*s ;)
They also serve coffee. Not their best, but it was enough to please. The service is also on point. They really radiate positivity. Great experience, and

Hustling through the Linq on my way to the High Roller with my family, my eye was caught by the Nook Café. It looked clean, bright and inviting, and I filed it away in my mind as a possibility for dinner. When we came back through that night, we popped in.
The employees were consistently friendly, welcoming and helpful. They have a build-​your-​own salad option with loads of fresh toppings to choose from, and they cheerfully indulged my five year old son as he concocted his lettuce, raisin and crunchy noodle feast. My wife and I each got a Chinese Chicken Salad — hold the chicken — and it was tasty and filling. We all shared a slice of cheese pizza, and the huge slice was definitely shareable when paired with a salad. The pizza had good sauce in just the right amount, a nice crust that wasn’t too doughy, and it was fresh from the oven.
They have those cool soda fountains where you can add one of several flavored syrups to your drink (vanilla, cherry, etc.). Too bad they had Pepsi instead of Coke products!
At the end of our meal, a kind person working there discreetly asked if my son had been a good boy today and if I thought he deserved a free cookie. His eyes widened with surprise when I handed him his peanut butter cookie, which he loved!
Prices were rather high, but on par for anything on The Strip.
This low-​key, well-​run eatery, with quick service and healthy options, was a winner for my family among the indulgent and heavy foods in the casinos. I’ll definitely be back on any future Vegas trip that brings me to the Linq!

Found this place when we stayed at the Linq hotel over July 4^th weekend. It’s actually open ²⁴⁄₇ so it’s a good idea for late night meals or lighter snacks. They have a pretty wide range of selection from breakfast items to pizza and gyros. My boyfriend and I decided to order the whole pie for 22 $. Which wasn’t a bad price it was tasty.
I really recommend getting the tricolera (or something along those lines) it’s a creamy white pizza with spinach, roasted tomato and bell pepper with ricotta cheese. Ah to die for. The staff here are really nice too and recognized us by face which is sweet cause they go through so many people at a time. Olivia is super nice and helpful at the cash wrap. Definitely worth checking it out

This is a review for Nook Café Express. All of the ladies working here are super friendly and efficient! I was waiting for my to go order at Hash House with nothing to do so I decided to find the place selling half chocolate dipped rice crispy treats I’d seen a stranger eating while passing by. NCE has all kind of pastries ranging from cream cheese Danishes to brownies. I found pistachio Madeleines, powdered sugar dusted blondies with walnuts, elegant chocolate cheesecake pops, apple Danishes, and more. At the register, I found roasted edamame crunch milk chocolate bars. The smiling cashier told me they were a bit bland so I got one instead of two. The chocolate bar was ok. What really hit the spot was the half dipped rice crispy treats! I got two and each one was individually placed in a plastic container whereas everything else was in a paper bag. To my surprise, they weren’t dipped in milk chocolate. I was able to buy a 16oz cup of milk for $ 3 since they don’t have bottled milk available. Stop by for a quick snack or espresso– located across from Purple Zebra inside the Linq hotel and casino.

I’m surprising myself giving Nook Café a 4. It only offers basic things like salads, sandwiches and pizza as well as coffee, but it works for something quick to eat. The food is expensive given it’s just a café, around $ 10 for a salad and $ 6 for a slice of pizza, but that’s more or less what you’d find elsewhere along the Strip. The staff here are super friendly and cheery!
I got a slice of margherita pizza for $ 6, which they heated up for me in their wood-​fire oven. The slice was actually pretty big and reasonable for the price and surprisingly good. The crust was thick so the slice held itself up pretty well despite being rather large. I usually prefer super thin crust pizzas, but their thick crust was soft and chewy. I’d definitely recommend eating the pizza while it’s still warm and the cheese is still melted! I took mine to-​go and only had a few bites of warm gooeyness before the cheese started to harden :(

Nookie cookie is what I am calling this little expressed coffee shop inside the casino.
I was waiting for our number to be called at Hash House a Go Go when I decided to pick up a cookie.
The line moved quick and I quickly chose the peanut butter cookie but once I saw that it was two cookies for $ 4, I thought, «another cookie can’t hurt nobody» so I chose the chocolate chip cookie as well.
I should have waited until after breakfast… but we’re in Vegas… who pays attention to proper eating habits?! So I ate the peanut butter cookie and OMG. This is the cookie that I’ve been wanting to bake at home but can’t find that perfect recipe. It has a rich peanut butter taste without the flavor of butter or vanilla behind it. The outer edge was perfectly crunchy and the center was dead on moist… almost raw. It was perfect! I wanted to hoard the entire cookie but played nice and shared it. I couldn’t stop there. If the peanut butter cookie was that good… I couldn’t imagine what the chocolate chip was going to be like. One bite into that cookie, I quickly realized that it was amazing. There were chocolate chips in every bite and just perfectly moist and soft in the center with a great crunch on the outer edge. Milk would have been the perfect friend with those cookies!
I will definitely return to Nook and will try their oatmeal cookie. Mom nom nom…

A-​OK, but I wouldn’t recommended it, here’s why…
I stopped here after having a quick meeting at 3535 Bar and I just needed a little nosh before I hit the road. The selection is decent for such a small location, with multiple sandwich options of both the breakfast and lunch variety; including a few salad options as well.
I opted for the chicken chimichurri and bacon sandwich with pickled coleslaw. They heated up my sandwich and then put it in a to-​go container, which steamed up the bread and made for a messy meal. This was a tad disappointing; I mean who likes to eat a soggy sandwich with a fork.
The bread fell apart, the chicken was flavorful, and the bacon was crispy and plentiful, but that wasn’t enough to save this meal. Nook Café offers a lot of other food options and I hope they execute them better than mine. The staff here is super friendly and helpful, which kept the rating from slipping into the two-​star rating arena.
After the subpar sandwich I was out $ 14 and had a bad case of the sandwich blues.
