We took a guest over for breakfast and thoroughly enjoyed the food. The ordering system did take us a minute to figure out but once we knew what to do, it was a breeze. We ordered the home fries with the black bird egg specials and caprese panini. Washed it all down with cappuccinos and hot cafe which was a perfect end to a satisfying meal! I was busy eating that I forgot to take pics of the food! Will definitely visit again ✨

Food is very good. Turkey pesto panini was delicious. We were required to pay using their app as the register was closed, so assume you are required to use their app. The vibe is kinda weird.

I stopped in here for lunch. There are touch screens to place your order. You then seat yourself. My drink was delivered before I even sat down and the food came out very quickly. I had a turkey club sandwich with pickles and it came with chips. It was delicious.

I last went to Blackbird in 2018. It was rustic, inviting, wholesome, and warm. Today, after moving out of state for 4 years I come back into this cold, uninviting, modern, NY style like booth with two screens to order my drink/food. No person greeting met with a smile, no “how are you today!?” a screen, and directions. I’m very disappointed and I do understand Covid might have put a damper on their business, but I will not be returning. It was also grossly overpriced for a breakfast sandwich & iced coffee.

Called to order two quick salads, was told they don’t take phone orders. Okay, it took me longer to do online than it would have been to just say what I wanted. One salad was supposed to have quinoa in it, but didn’t. The other was supposed to have roasted corn, and didn’t. The dressing sides were in the wrong salad boxes, as well. Otherwise, lovely, fresh ingredients.

I have to say – I’m so disappointed. The renovations make this cafe feel cold and unwelcoming. The staff is busy and doesn’t interact, which just adds to that feel. I used to come here before the reno and it was such an adorable, cozy spot. I’m so sad this was lost. The food seems to have decreased in quality, especially for the price. There is a non-optional 12% fee to the meal as a service charge. I’m not sure why this isn’t just folded into the prices. We also had an issue with one order (asked for eggs & veg w.o cheese and it came w cheese). They brought out more eggs without veg. We asked for veg and the staff said “honestly, kitchen is busy, so it’ll be a while”… you guys made the mistake?!

Maybe this is the way the world will be now, but it’s super impersonal to order your eggs and toast from a touchscreen in such a small restaurant. We’re social animals and we crave social interactions and removing the server relationship removes one of the joys of taking yourself out for breakfast on a weekend morning. Next time I want eggs and toast from this place I will just order a delivery from doordash and have essentially the same experience as dining in and I won’t have to drive to the restaurant.

I am a business owner, so I look at other businesses in that light. I wish people visiting the Black Bird could understand that the owners of this cafe have invested what I can only imagine is a large sum to create this restaurant and when visiting this location as a customer you’re investing a little time and comparably a tiny sum. If your experience is bad, maybe contact the cafe directly to help them be better, but instead, I’m reading caustic commentary on an establishment that is trying something different and in my experience served good food. Most restaurants try hard especially now to be good, sometimes unique, but rarely are they intending to make your experience bad in fees, food, protocols, systems, etc. If one doesn’t like an experience, just don’t do it again, but I for one refrain, from writing these horrendous commentaries as though my $20.00 is worth trying to take down a business that in my experience did a nice job with me in food and service.
