Great clam chowder and can't miss artichoke fritters. Outdoor dining only but great views

I had a good meal here a couple of times before. Unfortunately, the last time I came in, there was an old man working there who was a misogynistic, objectifying, creepy dude & made me feel pretty unsafe when I was just trying to order food. Unfortunately, for that reason, I’ll never be back. And I would advise any women, especially women traveling solo, to stay cautious of this place, if you don’t want to have a freaky experience. Women should be allowed to exist without having to put their guard up, it’s a shame this place doesn’t allow them to.

The Birds Cafe was a magical little gem and perfect for delicious food. We ended up having a great breakfast with a beautiful view. We even snagged some candy before we left! It was a wonderful experience and the atmosphere was just right for a relaxing morning.

This is my first time coming to this place even though I’ve been out to bodega many times. I loved the vibe and how you ordered your food and then got a little vibrator to pick up your food when it was ready. I was a little bit bummed out that they were out of the crab roll, but I ended up getting the lobster roll, which was fabulous. They have lots of different seafood, and the people are really nice. The best part is the patio that looks over the water.
I highly recommend this place if you want some good quick seafood and do you want to sit outside during a nice sunny day.

This place is paradise!! It was my first time and it won’t be my last! Don(the owner) helped me out at the register and made it so easy since I was new. He recommended the fish n chips which were sooooo good(especially with that salsa 💃 I had to ask for another one). Even though it got kinda busy this place holds well under pressure & the view is to die for 😍 Very beautiful & aesthetic even having a cafe right next door! The best of both worlds for anyone traveling on the coastal highway and a must to pass by to enjoy good food & a magnificent view.

Great place to stop if you're coming down the highway. Good food, quick service and a nice outside deck overlooking the harbor

We stopped in for a quick breakfast, although the place is tiny inside, there is a small amount of covered outdoor seating. We ate breakfast at the coffee shop because the main cafe was not yet open. There is also a larger patio for seating, and it is uncovered which is pretty difficult in the rain.

Crazy oyster experience 👌🏻👌🏻we got some fresh and baked ones (best IMO were the herb butter) as well as the artichoke fritters which were to DIE for. It's pricey but worth it.

Latta was good but very hot! I should have asked for a lower temp
Fresh fish dishes. Good flavors. Onion rings were delicious. Lobster roll good amount of lobster and fresh. Atmosphere is nice and good outdoor seating. Dog friendly. Nice selection of beers/spirits/non alcoholic.

Late December 2025 The cluster of three stores: Restaurant, café, and gift shop are all casual and bayside attractions and destinations for visitors
The site celebrates the then popular Alfred Hitchcock movie The Birds 🐦⬛ which was then part of the prolific work of this ground breaking film maker. The film 🎥 🎞 was shot in several areas of Bodega Bay town.
We only got to visit the cafe while the restaurant had a long queue and is known as a place to have the famed Hog Island Oysters of CA.
The cafe is simple, rustic, with a number of film decor
Expect American style cafe fare and coffee ☕️ culture
The nearby gift shop is worth a quick perusal

Keep in mind, I only went to the cafe. I loved their seasonal pumpkin chai & butter croissant! Absolute perfection there. The breakfast dish I tried, a green chile quiche of some kind, was mediocre, & the chocolate croissant was average, certainly a reheated probably-not- fresh pastry. Nothing to write home about. The location & inside of the cafe were cool. There were pictures & flowers everywhere, & the cafe was nestled quaintly between the separate lunch building & a gift shop that wasn’t open when I was there on a weekday. It’s certainly worth a stop if for nothing more than a delicious coffee in a beautiful setting.
