Attended soft opening today. Ate at the bar. Food was great. Menu is filled with a great variety. Staff was well trained. Looking forward to trying more Menu items.
The Bird is a great spot for breakfast or late night drinks paired with the best chicken sandwich or chicken tacos around. Cute decor and a lovely bar that is always playing the right tunes. Best espresso martini in town! My favorite thing to get is the scotch eggs but you gotta get there early. Always a great experience and the staff always go the extra mile to take care of ya.
The Bird is hands down some of the best food in Norfolk, VA! They offer daily specials on coffee and unique food/drink items as well as indoor and outdoor seating. I love the atmosphere, and the staff are all very friendly and knowledgeable. You HAVE to try one of their deviled egg specials! Or if you fancy an espresso martini go for the frequent flyer! 10/10 every time .

The menu features a variety of interesting choices like eggs in a nest and Huevos Rancheros. The portions are generous and perfect for sharing. The vanilla macchiato is a must-try, along with the smoked salmon on an everything bagel. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it a great spot for a family breakfast.
The staff at The Bird are known for their kind and helpful service. Customers praise their cheerful and quick responses, with staff members always willing to answer questions. The restaurant is family-friendly, offering a high chair and accommodating the needs of children. Standout dishes include the Chicken and Waffles, home fries, and salad, with staff members Steven and John commended for their excellent service.
Recently, customers shared that while the food and service are excellent, the indoor seating is limited and bread served with bacon jam is small. Some also mentioned that ordering can take a long time, especially on busy days, as customers need to stand in line to place their orders. However, once ordered, food and drinks are served quickly at the table, creating a lively and positive vibe. Many guests enjoy the mix of sweet and savory in the Chicken and Waffles, praising the moist, crispy chicken and the flavorful hot sauce with real heat. The triple pickle chicken sandwich has also been highlighted as the best chicken sandwich ever eaten.
Overall, The Bird remains a popular destination for delicious food and a welcoming atmosphere, despite some minor service style adjustments. The friendly staff, tasty dishes, and vibrant environment make it a favorite spot for many diners.
