There's nothing quite as pleasant as a leisurely breakfast on a sunny morning. Maybe it's because it's very much a rarity here or because maple syrup is so delicious, but I would be content if that was my Christmas present this year. Of course, I would ask for one of these breakfast nooks to go along with it. Don't they look wonderfully cozy?

This classic booth style could easily fit in a lot of spaces. Just don't get stuck.

This is a little larger than a nook but still cozy. I love all the light streaming in.

My table would have to be larger than this quaint one since I love a good breakfast spread.

If you're custom building one, add extra storage while you're at it.

This one feels like it was transplanted from your favorite cafe.

I love the clever mix of the love seat and metal chairs.

So, what do you think? Does your dream space include a breakfast nook? Remember, it is the most important meal of the day.
