5 Darling Breakfast Nooks that Prove Breakfast Is the Most Important Meal of the Day

5 Beautiful Breakfast Nooks We Love

A Little Old, A Little New

This 109-year-old house got a massive upgrade by Project 22 Design to bring back its charm and sparkle. The breakfast nook combines the house’s history with its stylish present, remaining the same size and shape of the original construction but with an updated stained oak. Explore the rest of this transformative renovation.

Honey Bunches of Oaks

Designed by McKinley Studios, this Whistler ski chalet combines nature with comfort in a cozy nook, offering a space for the owners to warm up after a morning on the mountain. See more of this house.

Keep it Minimal

Just because breakfast is the most important meal of the day doesn’t mean we have to make it complicated. This minimalist nook designed by Andrea Rodman is perfect for a low-stress, relaxing breakfast. Part of a 10,000-square-foot home in Victoria, we can assure you that the rest of the house is just as bright and airy.

A Snap, Crackle, Pop of Colour

Pops of yellow and blue really bring this cozy breakfast nook to life. Designed by Alison Connor and Aly Velji from Alykhan Velji Designs, this Calgary home plays with natural wood and colour and still maintains a sense of serenity across each room. The nook was designed to be a relaxing casual space to enjoy a meal without the formality of sitting at the island. See the rest of this colourful Calgary home.

Warm and Casual

Our last space is also designed by Calgary-based Alykhan Velji Designs (what can we say, he’s a nuts for nooks). This house combines warm brown tones with stained glass windows; the coziness extends into every corner. The family opted for this casual seating to allow their island to be used for storage.
