Robin's Nest Cafe — Restaurant in Town of Round Lake

Ok we have been driving by this place for a long time . I hate to leave this kind of Review .

1. hubs drinks coffee . I have no clue what happened . It had a burnt bitter back bite . He switched to unsweetened tea . I was drinking Diet Coke Ok 3.$ + 3.25 for drinks ….. uhm seriously way upcharging folks I understand business times etc but yeah that is way to high . We were greeted and seated fast enough no complaints. Server washed down out table just fine .

Husband had Original Sausage Omlette With Cajun Potatoes. These potatoes. When you’re eating something and you don’t know how to describe it … I’m not sure if these began as canned potatoes?? Or if the Cajun rub is way to over powering? They should have been really good great idea . He said his Omlette was mediocre at best . He also had Wheat Toast . Ok shrimp and grits . This is a really nice try . Beautiful plate . And that is where the fun stops .

Are y’all using instant grits or powdered milk? I can not understand how grits get this way . Oh and because no bread is served . Here we go again . $3 for one biscuit. Shrimp were ok . This meal needs to be re written in menu . And please fix the flavor profile of the grits . So now our bill is almost 10$ not counting the entree . Which we were never offered a refill on either drink . I have managed restaurants I know food service cost then and now . I get it but this way above the mark . Because you are constantly packed . Which is why we wanted to try your place for so long . Almost 50$ for two people for breakfast is way too much. I don’t know if we ordered wrong or what but our over experience...

My wife and I were in the Hayward area for an extended weekend stay visiting from Madison WI. When looking up places to eat on our way out of town, I found the Robin’s Nest online. The profile picture on Facebook looked quaint to me and I read a recent post about jalapeño cream cheese blintzes which struck me as an intriguing dish, so we decided to check it out. When we arrived at the restaurant, the place was busy, but not overwhelmingly so. And we were able to get a table without waiting long. When we looked at the menu several dishes jumped out at me, so I ordered both the Blintzes and the Key Lime Crepes because I couldn’t decide. I did not regret ordering both dishes as both dishes were incredible. I highly recommend anyone traveling in the area check them out as it beat all the other places we tried within the town of Hayward. If we have a reason to come back to the area, I would eat...

Group of 4, waited 45+ mins while watching larger groups than ours who arrived afterwards get seated before us. Finally went to inquire at hostess stand and was told they skipped us....We've been here in the past when it wasn't busy and had no issues, but it seems that they're too disorganized and not trained/prepared for larger crowds. Just seemed chaotic with people running around doing everything at once, rather than people having specific jobs. If we had waited and eaten there, probably would have been a 2.5+ hour experience....wouldn't recommend. Went to the Hayward Family Restaurant instead and were in and out in 30mins with full stomachs and...
