A breakfast nook is one of the most desirable features for today's families, serving as the ideal spot for casual meals, homework, art projects, meal planning, and catching up at the end of the day.

"Whether you're drinking your orange juice and reading on a bleary-eyed weekday or gathering with the whole family for pancakes on Saturday, a breakfast nook is an ideal place to start your day," said Houzz.




Built-in benches and a bookcase create a cozy space.



A row of cabinets in front of a bank of windows turns a pretty, blank space into a pretty, useful one.



"Don't have a built-in breakfast nook? Try making one yourself by adding a small table to a sunny corner that doesn't get a lot of use," said Huffington Post. Here, a round table and corner benches maximize space and utility.

A built-in nook works well even in a space without right angles.



Have the space in the center of your kitchen but not so much a separate space? Incorporate a breakfast nook right into your island.



A banquette with extra storage serves multiple purposes.



A banquette can be as fancy as you want.



Use it as a showcase for your personal style.
