Ask for Maggie, she is absolutely the bomb. She runs a great restaurant and treats her guest with true care and compassion. My favorites are the Ramen bowl with tempura shrimp, and the black dragon roll, which you have to ask for as it is not on the menu. My wife loves their bubble tea! Oshi is only 1.1 miles away.

These guys have been serving up Pizza in Huntsville since 1961. They must be doing something right! A local “mom n’ pop” family-run pizzeria with craft beer on tap serving up pizza, calzones, salads and subs. This is one of Huntsville’s landmark pizza establishments. You can walk to Big Ed's from the Nest! It is only 0.5 miles away.

Olde Towne Coffee Shoppe roasts its own beans just two blocks from the Nest. Walk down there and check them out. Very cool, Very Hip. I'm surprised they even let me in! In any case, I often stock their custom blend called The Cure, which is a medium-light roast. They also serve sandwiches for breakfast and lunch. The Veggie sandwich is quite good. You can walk to Olde Towne Coffee Shoppe. It is only 0.2 miles away.

The Poppy is an English Pub and Butcher Shoppe that will simply blow you away. My favorite... Shane's Old English Bangers and Mash are homemade and flavored with Guinness and Thyme gravy. Oh and this is the place to watch some real futbal. ;) https://www.thepoppyandparliament.com
