Just left breakfast at Birdy’s and need to commend the staff for being attentive and kind while keeping it casual and never pushy. “Background-thoughtful” is the perfect attitude for service while you’re catching up with a friend over a delicious refueling meal in this tucked-back spot on Magazine. Thank you Birdy’s!

Really cute place, wasn’t too happy with the brunch board or the biscuit board, it was just ok, the gravy was the best part of the whole meal.
