Bird's Nest

Great atmosphere and food! Stopped here 4 times in our 5 day trip! Beautiful facility with a great view. Service was friendly and food was made fast! Pizza was one of my favorite I’ve ever had, the breakfast burrito was great and HUGE! Pastries and drinks were good as well! Definitely will be stopping here more when visiting Estes in the future!

So this place is extremely remarkable. They bake their own bread, make their own pizzas from scratch, and have a cute menu of coffee, tea and smoothies. We got the Monarch and the Golden Eagle smoothie. Today was their opening day and you couldn’t even tell! It was like the staff had been working together for months! Melissa, the owner, chatted us up and made conversation for the entire time we were waiting. She is extremely polite and it’s no wonder this place was as busy as their workhorse business, Bird & Jim restaurant.

This is the MUST STOP on your way into or out of the park. If you pass this place up, you’re shorting yourself on an amazing visit.

A short 11-minute drive from Moraine Park Campground in Rocky Mountain National Park, this new hip and trendy establishment from the owners of Bird & Jim offers freshly baked pastries and bread as well as assorted coffee and tea drinks.

We had the breakfast ham and jalapeño quiche with light roast black coffee. A delicious break from the prepackaged camp food we’d been eating.

Recommended!

Super friendly staff. Happy to see the relation to Bird and Jim’s restaurant… another one of our favorites. I have to say… this will be our top choice for coffee in Estes Park. Reasonable prices, great views, open beautiful space. Very happy to see this new addition in Estes Park.

By far one of my favorite places in Estes Park. Love their baked goods and coffee. The Turkey panini and pizza are also very tasty. The space is so cute and clean!

Really nice new building with great decor. Limited seating downstairs and it’s a shame you can’t sit sit upstairs.

I came for the pizza. Unfortunately it was really burnt on the bottom but I’m sure once they dial in the oven and personnel this will get resolved. Other than that it was a good pizza.

Staff was very friendly and the pastries that were left looked good.

The funghi pizza is probably one of the best pizzas I've ever had in my life. And I've been to Italy 😂. The crust is some kind of magic. I also tried the Margherita pizza but found that one to be slightly soggy in the middle perhaps due to the tomato water + slightly over oiled. But nonetheless I gotta give 5* for the funghi. Cool building this place is in too.

Had a decaf oat milk Cappuccino as well - I could tell the beans were good underneath, but the barista could have used more training to better steam/texture the milk and dial in the espresso a bit better in my opinion. It wasn't up to a speciality coffee standard. So I wouldn't come here just for coffee. Pizza, though, yes!

New cafe in Estes Park is a must stop!! We ordered a smoothie, coffee and lemon poppy seed muffins that were all amazing!! Mountain views all around, outdoor seating, and such a cute vibe! We definitely will be back!

WOW WOW WOW! Beautiful building, awesome and attentive staff, great value, and most importantly INCREDIBLE FOOD! I had the breakfast burrito and one of their specialty lattes and my expectations were beyond exceeded! Fresh and delicious ingredients at a great price! I can't tell you how happy I am to know that we have a place like this where I live! Great Job! 🙌

Excellent pastry selection. Delicious sandwiches. Also enjoyed the fresh juice. The ambiance and decor is really lovely. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed!
