If you have any extra space in your kitchen, a breakfast nook can be a great way to take advantage of it. They are perfect for more casual meals when you don’t want the fuss of eating in the formal dining room. A breakfast nook is easy to fit into a small space, too. Even the smallest, most awkward corners can often accommodate a breakfast nook with some clever design choices.
Another thing not to overlook is how much charm and character this simple set-up can bring to a space. There are some delightful options that will help you infuse your nook with style, whether it is built-in or freestanding. The look is totally versatile.
Here are 10 examples of breakfast nooks that are full of style and charm.
