When my staff heard about the blog (Do y'all read this? You should comment. That would crack me up.), they immediately told me we HAD to check out the Crow's Nest. HAD to. They also mentioned that they're known for their wicked breakfast food, but I have a poor memory, so I got an actual entree instead.
This was a pretty great vegetarian option. The wrap was fresh, the beer battered mushrooms were good. But the real award winner here for me was the sweet potato fries. So delicious. So delicious, in fact, that I can't even think of words to describe them. Which of course is super helpful in this role as a foodie blogger.
In any case, it was good, but we're going to have to go back soon to try the breakfast like we were originally told.

Kate: Crap! I can't remember what mine was called either! It was a black bean burger with goat cheese and something else. Boo! Oh, and the shrooms and the sweet potato chips.
It has also been suggested to me that I needed to check this place out. I don't recall the breakfast part, but that's fine. We figured that since so many college students enjoy this place, we could afford it, right? So, off to the Crow's Nest we went.
I was reluctant to go with the fried shrooms. I knew I would like them, but thought that the grease factor might be a little high. They weren't too terribly greasy, nothing beyond normal, but coupled with my meal, it was a little beyond what my tummy could handle. The burger was tasty, but it was a little beyond my preferred greasiness. The sweet potato chips, however, were amazing. And, unlike other places that serve sweet potato chips with a special dipping sauce, these ones didn't need it. They were perfect as is!
Kristin's plate looked a little more appealing to me when it came out. A lighter option, which she clearly enjoyed. I will probably steer clear of the burgers from here on out. And, yes, I would like to experience their breakfast sometime soon.
Service was pretty good, the atmosphere is delightfully dive-ish, and the food was tasty.
