Classy, unpretentious, delicious, cozy and fun. With an intimate setting and casual atmosphere, The Bird delivers great food and delicious cocktails. Order at the bar and seat yourself, so easy. Sit at a table, high top, or on the couch. It's all good. Good for drinks and a delicious snack after your evening's adventure, but when it's too early to …

The place was cozy and calming, had a very relaxing atmosphere. Will say parking is a tough one but it's worth finding a way. Biggest thing to note, I hate coffee, always have, no matter what kind of coffee I try, I can always taste the water and it just ruins it for me. That's either going to make perfect …

Cute venue, great food and service. Awesome drinks - Thirsty Crow, Carmen Miranda, and I <3 U T. Rex are all light and unique, well-crafted and well-balanced. Papa Oom Mow Mow a bit of a stronger option, just as good. Can't go wrong with the Bourbon Bacon Jam and Scotch Egg peckings - especially house aioli with the Scotch Egg. …

A very cool little spot for brunch. My omelet had smoked salmon, red peppers, and mushrooms. The staff was nice and the prices are fair.

Stand in line, order, and seat yourself. Indoor and outdoor seating. Specialty coffee, mimosa, and other drinks. We tried the Scotch eggs, wow powerful flavor and very tasty, definitely a great treat. I had the Baja Benedicts, bit of a kick, but very tasty. He had the tacos and added the sausage, bit of spice. He said it was good …

I moved to the neighborhood in October and very recently started visiting The Bird on a regular basis. The first few times I tried to stop in for brunch (around noon) on a Saturday, the place was so packed we ended up leaving. I'm not exaggerating when I say this- every menu item I've tried so far has been incredible. …

The food was great, so was the atmosphere and the server/bartenders I dealt with. I was looking to try this place for some time, and I have to be honest, I was not disappointed. I strongly recommend and will be coming back. Had an old fashion and the chicken tacos with fries. Very good!

Id give atmosphere a 5 stars but my chair broke while I was sitting on it. Coffee was good there, I tried their Dubai choc latte... and it was yummy! Their homemade turkey sausage with soft poached egg dish was surprisingly tasty!! My waffle was kinda soggy, they should've cooked it longer. The bacon was greasy but good. Decor inside …

Perfect for the …
