Loved the atmosphere, food was good, but the lady who brought us our drinks wasn’t so apologetic when she spilled my friends drink all over me. “Whoops, my bad” are her exact words. I laughed it off, but as someone who doesn’t drink alcohol. I smelled like it the rest of my evening out. So yeah…

I have a wonderful experience here at Shy Bird. We were seated at the bar and got a super good service. The burger here is delicious and I definitely come back to it. At the end of our dinner they gave us a complimentary mock tail which was super tasty.

Amazing and compassionate service. I love their breakfast menu more than their dinner menu on whole. But there are few must tries in the dinner menu as well – Rotisserie-piri-piri chicken is one of them.

Very friendly service, ok burger – could have been a little thicker, nice location

Had the harissa bowl from here. Lots of potential but as you can see the basil is old and the shallots were enormous. Shallots overpowered the whole flavor of the bowl and would have been much better if cut up smaller. Everything else in the bowl was quite good but the shallots and brown herbs ruined it for me.

Really love this spot for brunch, they have a fun menu with both chicken and/or breakfast meats, including the elusive BEC! The vibe is nice and bright and the coffee is also delicious.

i went during the very busy lunch rush, but i was still seated pretty quickly. however, because of this, service was quite slow and i felt somewhat forgotten. my waitress was very friendly though. nice, modern interior with indoor and outdoor seating. food was very good too. fresh, flavourful, and fun! the salads and rosemary french fries are a must try.

Yumm. But if I wanted to have dinner in glorified hotel lobby I woulda said of my soul to J.P. Morgan. Feels like I’m trynna bury my regret in a well seasoned half chicken

Absolutely fun and yummy. Heck we are here on the 4th and the staff is awesome and the food is so delicious. We had the chicken bites, the chicken and waffles, and the chicken sandwich. Everyone in our part loved their food. ❤️
