Bird

Amazing brunch Spot! Bird is a must-visit for brunch lovers! The food is fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked—especially their “fried chicken benedict.” Friendly service, cozy atmosphere, and reasonable prices make this place a winner. Highly recommend!

Great little restaurant. Friendly service, great food. O recommend the fried chicken sandwich with Tennessee hot sauce. My daughter had the chicken and waffles, gave them two thumbs-up. Mmmmm mmm!

BIRD still small, still busy, still good. We stopped in after a show and found parking only one block away. Way busy but two bar chairs were available. We are right there with the never stop moving bartender. Great service. Not a big selection of food but still great food. Had the Nashville Bites and a Bird Enchilada. Big wine selection.

Loved this place! We shared the pretzel bites w beer cheese as an appetizer and each got mimosas. Our server Day was awesome! My friend got the classic Benedict and I got the burrito. Everything tasted amazing and the vibe was great :) can’t wait to come back and try more of the menu! Bonus points: it’s right down the street from my favorite ice cream place (sweet cow)

Cute spot, really good food and drinks. Happy hour menu and flexible kitchen made the random stop a hopeful regular for when I'm in the area!

Been here twice. The service is good and the restaurant is clean and has nice atmosphere. I can’t give more stars because for a place called bird, the fried chicken was just okay. It was moist and the breading was good but there was such little flavor to the breading or the chicken that I really couldn’t say I was having fried chicken. The burger was also moist and well cooked, but again seriously lacking salt in the patty and just missing overall flavor. The grilled cheese was seriously pathetic in terms of the amount of cheese and flavor. Not enough chicken with the chicken and waffles. Go for the atmosphere, but I will go elsewhere for fried chicken or “American comfort food”. Overall it feels like a Denverfied version of comfort food. Bland, overpriced, and small portions.

Loved the atmosphere of this place- Pearl street is always a fun place and this restaurant and bar doesn’t disappoint. Service was wonderful. Drinks were delicious and so was the food. We went for breakfast and enjoy every bite. Felt pretty affordable for everything we got.

Ryan was amazing! Congrats on the baby soon to be Dad. Everything was stellar. Food was incredible, I had the veggie Benedict with fried chicken, go figure (not veggie). I created my own and everyone executed my meal perfectly. Bravo. Highly recommend!

It was our first visit to Bird, but it absolutely won't be our last. Pearl Street set the vibe before you walk in to this great setting, and the friendly staff find just the right spot to enjoy Happy Hour (our server was Trinity; she was great in every way)! The spicy margarita is outstanding, and all the bites were wonderful from the pretzel bites to the duck wings. There's a lot of competition but Bird stands above it all!

Stopped in for a late lunch. Happy we did. Everything was delicious. Service great. Black bean burger was exceptional.

What a great place on the already amazing Pearl street! I saw this the last time I was down in the area at another restaurant and had it in mind for my next visit. I decided to give my husband a break from my constant request for us to each get something different so we can share, and it turned out we both went for the bison meatloaf. I'm glad we didn't split it because we each practically licked our plate clean. We also got there before 6 so had some really cheap mixed drinks as well. We shared the bread pudding for dessert, which was decent but not close to some of the best I've had. Overall nice ambiance, good service and really tasty food. Definitely will want to visit again.

My friend and I happened upon Bird when at S. Pearl St Farmer's Market. We were there in time for brunch. The menu had a lot of great options and I had trouble choosing. I settled on the fried chicken eggs benedict. I really loved it. The gravy was savory and flavorful. Not exactly a southern style gravy - but good nonetheless. The dish came with biscuits instead of English muffins and the biscuit was great. I'm a biscuit snob but these were tender, flaky, and had a nice outside crust. The service was great and very quick. We were in and out in under an hour. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

Love that this great little spot is so close to my house! The service has always been friendly, the food is delicious, and it comes out fast (but not too fast). Our favorite this time around was the bison meatloaf, which had a deliciously spicy ketchup on top and crispy brussel sprouts. The turkey shepherd's pie was also good (we just tend to like pot pies better, but their mashed potatoes are pretty darn flavorful). We liked our winter salad too-- it added a great acidic complement to our rich entrees.

We started going to Bird several years ago and have had many great times including the time Jen the manager stayed open late for us to watch the end of the final basketball game. The champagne toast when the Nuggets won was over the top cool.

Stopped by with a large group after the farmers market. They got us seated quickly and the decor was really cute! Loved the garage door that opened to let the air flow through the building. Service was kind and quick, although there was some issue with a special order that ended up falling through and not being resolved before the end of the meal. Honestly, that wasn't a huge deal. I appreciated the server suggesting my friend get the sweet potato fries, as the regular fries weren't gluten free. I just wasn't super impressed with the food. I got the peach French toast, which had candied walnuts on it and a few peach slices. It was good but not great, and didn't have enough peaches on it to really make an impression. My friend got the chicken salad on a gluten free bun, but said the bun was a little dry and the sweet potato fries were overcooked. The burgers looked good, so maybe I just ordered the wrong item. If I was in the area again, I would give them another try but maybe do a different meal.

Which Bird? Dark Wing Duck Wings. Amazing happy hour app--4 duck wings in a sweet Asian style sauce for $13.

What a yummy spot in south Denver - such a cute street and atmosphere. Our waitress was really nice and did a great job making sure we had everything we needed. I ordered the turkey club sandwich and a side salad, and it was so delicious and refreshing. The turkey club had a great ratio of turkey to bacon - sometimes the turkey can make the whole thing dry. It was so tasty! Parking is reasonable along the street. Prices were a little steep for what you get, but still reasonable, I'd say. It also took quite a bit of time for our food to come out of the kitchen. We did come after the lunch rush, so I was hopeful food would be out sooner.

Stopped in for weekend brunch/lunch. I called ahead to see how long the wait was for a party of 3 and was told it would probably be a half hour - they don't take reservations. We decided to head over anyway since it was close to a venue we were going to later. I called again at 12:15 and there was no longer a wait. Street parking on Pearl can be a challenge, but we did find a spot across the street. Bird is located in what looks like an old, 2 story house that's been morphed into a cozy restaurant. It's light and bright and completely packed with tables which contributes to the noise level. I felt like i was part of the conversation at the table next to us. You enter just past a very small patio area right into the small bar. There is a stairway up to more seating but we sat in the next room on the first floor. Our server was Kennedy and she was helpful and efficient. Other servers were quick to jump in if it seemed like we needed something. Bird bills itself as American Comfort Food and it definitely is. We had a gourmet grilled cheese with tomato bisque soup, a beautiful salad and the chicken Philly sandwich. All of it was good and I enjoyed a Chai latte with just the right amount of cinnamon on it. The menu has lots of delicious sounding items and they do have happy hour so I'm looking forward to going back. Tip: Don't Forget to check in on Yelp for a nice surprise.

Very cute quaint restaurant. The service was good. We got there before we had to wait. I had a delicious iced chai. The avocado toast was topped with pickled jalapeños, goat cheese and greens. It was very good. My husband had the chicken and waffles, he also liked his.

As a lover of all things fried chicken, I struggle with Bird because it has so much potential. The menu is awesome and the food itself is well executed. However, every time I have been here, they seem to fall short on service and atmosphere. Arrived for brunch service right at opening. Service started out strong but took a nosedive once the restaurant got busy as we started to feel neglected. Their fried chicken Benedict is a unique and delicious take on the classic. Potatoes have a nice touch with the addition of peppers but could be a little crispier. The tables are uncomfortably close to each other and you can hear everyone's conversation, which is a little annoying. If you like fried chicken, you won't be disappointed in the food or menu, but other things are left to be desired.

Service was terrible and they weren't even busy. Drinks were great. Food was disappointing. My burrito had very little protein in chicken sausage. Somehow I couldn't get a fried chicken substitute. The burrito had fresh veggies but it was more of a vegetarian burrito than anything else. The lack of service really ruined the experience for me to be Frank.

Been hearing about the hype of birds good food. To start off the service was extremely slow and it wasn't even that busy. The espresso martinis were some of the best in town, but sadly it was definitely a let down when it came to the food.. the fried chicken Benedict was ok. Healthy light but the only item that has some pronounced flavor was the gravy. The over easy eggs were almost hard boiled. The chicken sausage burrito was extremely light on the protein and both meals were light on the gravy and green chili sauce. Definitely a cocktail spot for me only. The ambiance was pleasant.

Pretty tasty stop for a variety of American food! I had the chicken Philly and it was super cheesy and delightful! Also vacuumed the Cobb salad that we shared - it was hard to actually share because I just wanted it for myself lol and we ended the night by having the bread pudding which had an interesting twist to having blueberry paste (?) on top! Tasty all around!

Came here for lunch on a Saturday, and it was pretty busy - first come, first serve seating. Even though this place is very popular, I was not incredibly impressed. Ordered the Pilsner to drink, and the Bird Burger with fries. The Pilsner was pretty good- light and crisp, and I liked the battered fries as well. However I did not love the burger. I ordered it medium rare, but it came cooked all the way through, no pink, and pretty dry. I had to add ketchup for some more flavor. I did not love my experience here, but it was not bad, and others in my group that had the fried chicken dishes really liked it. It isn't high on my list to return, but I would get the fried chicken if I did.

this is an exceptional restaurant in the world of big box flavor packages. This restaurant is homemade food that is delicious. A great atmosphere and a cool Copper Bar

Was recommended to eat here by a local friend to meet up as we were visiting from out of town. I have dietary restrictions that include no spicy foods. The menu had certain spicy items while others seemed safe, especially the turkey club sandwich with "red pepper aioli" and the pulled pork with "bbq sauce". Red peppers where we are from at least are not spicy, and the bbq sauce also was not deacribed as spicy. I went to order the pulled pork but was informed it had a kick, so I ordered the turkey club noting I can't eat anything spicy. Our waitress was very disinterested and took her time to even come to take our orders. She said nothing about that sandwich being spicy. Our food comes and after one bite I am met with awful spice from the turkey club. Our waitress was nowhere to be found so my husband switched his burger with the sandwich as it wasn't spicy. Instead it had a garlic sauce also not mentioned in the menu. It was mild so I got through it but the burger was just meh and not what I wanted to eat. We each had a total of 10 to 15 fries on the side...not great portions. The iced tea also tasted like medicine, and the waitress never came to ask how we were doing until it was time for the check. Luckily I will never have to return here again.

The restaurant is super cute and they have a dog friendly patio which is awesome. The staff are very friendly and my husband and I were able to get our food and drinks quickly. The server also brought water for our pup without being asked, which was a very nice touch. They have happy hour on Sundays until 8 pm- rock on!! So $7 we'll made old fashioneds. Our mains were kind of meh- I had a burger and he had the jambalaya. However, the drink specials and the he dog friendly patio and the nice staff mean that we'll be back...oh, and the pretzel appetizer was yummy, so we'd definitely do that again!

nice atmosphere, very chill which is great, great drinks as well but i would say a bit $$ food however was not so hot, literally cold when i got the cajun shrimp bene--NOT CAJUN AT ALL--and cold from the kitchen :( and there was barley any bene sauce ....whats the point then ?!?!?! also they need to update yelp/menu--went for the crab cakes bene which they no longer have :(

Sooo... never in our 8+ years of dining as a family has *everyone* been happy and full at the end of a meal. Until Bird. We were strolling down the street checking out the farmer's market, freezing our Arizona behinds off, when all of a sudden we all realized we were starving. I had seen Bird as we walked by and it piqued my interest. A quick glance at the menu told me they had food my kids would eat, so in we went. The seating had me a little concerned. They were slammed and we waited 3-4 minutes to be greeted. That's not a long time - but it is when there are 8 to 10 people who have all walked in at once, it is snowing outside, and everyone is basically now standing on top of folks who are trying to eat their own meals. However, once we were seated, the clouds parted and heaven shown down. The waitress came quickly and took all of our drink orders. The drinks were back in a flash. She also put in my kids' orders - which also came out in a flash. I had a Pretty in Pink and LET ME TELL YOU...!!! My husband is always trying the eggs benny everywhere we go, and everywhere he is disappointed. That day? NOPE! Loved it! Ate every bite! Their tomato soup was hot, a touch spicy, and just what was needed on a cold October day. The boy spawn ate all of his eggs, a good portion of his bacon, and really enjoyed his toast... And our little girl got the pancakes with berries. They came out looking like that famous mouse and she was SO HAPPY! We kept saying, "1,000 out of 10!" "This is so good!" " I wish we lived near here!" All of this is just to say... thank you to our amazing waitress, her super lightning fast runner, the great bartender, and a rock star chef (or entire kitchen full of elves)? If we are ever in the area again, we WILL be back.

Great brunch sweet and savory menu options for food and drinks--it was hard to decide! Also cute inside. Prior to leaving we discussed coming back the next weekend to try more so you know it's good when you're making return plans. :)

Parking may be a little bit difficult to find. And be sure to make a reservation on a busy night. The service was good on our visit. The food was enjoyable. The prices were a little high. I would enjoy another visit in the future.

Stopped in for lunch on Monday 7/1 with my wife. Our server, Addie, was very friendly and attentive. I ordered the loaded grilled cheese w/bacon & fries (It sounded decadent and I was hungry for some comfort food). My wife ordered the chicken salad sandwich with a cup of soup. When we got our food, which took almost a half hour to be delivered, I was immediately unimpressed by its presentation. It looked like a toasted sandwich with a small blob of cheese in the middle, and no bacon. There were also maybe a dozen fries scattered on the plate. For the price, I was quite disappointed. I sent it back and ordered the chicken salad sandwich with fries. More fries this time, but when I bit into the sandwich, it was literally all lettuce, and very little chicken salad. I sent it back as well and asked that my items be taken off the bill. Addie, kindly obliged and profusely apologized. She stated there was no manager on duty that day ( and mentioned there wouldn't be one for the whole week). I tipped her on the amount of both our orders, even though we were only charged for one meal. My wife did love the tomato bisque, but was marginally unimpressed with the chicken salad. We've been to Bird in the past for breakfast, and loved it. Not sure I'd recommend this place for lunch. We were both disappointed, especially at the fact that we waited for such a long time to get our food...we chalked it up to maybe the chef was having a super bad day.

Exceptional dishes for the price! Perfect brunch spot - we started with the Nashville bites and had entrees of fried chicken Benedict and sweet potato hash with sage sausage. Everything was extraordinarily fresh, beautifully presented, and delish! Plus friendly and prompt service! 10/10 recommend.

We love happy hour at Bird! A few weeks ago we stumbled upon this fantastic spot right in time for happy hour. It was a sunny day so everyone was eating on the patio and we had the entire dining room to ourself (on a Saturday none the less). We tried the slider trio and pretzel bites on our first visit and kept taking about those delicious little sandwiches for a week later. A couple of weeks went by and we were back in Denver and thought...we should absolutely swing by for happy hour again. They are situated right across the street from Tokyo Premium Bakery, so after grabbing parking (which you can get for free on the street in the afternoon or there is a parking garage nearby) we grabbed a baked snack and walked across the street to enjoy happy hour once more! The dining room was again very open around 3pm on a Saturday, but this time filled up quickly while we ate. We tried the Springtime Fashion and Lychee Paloma which were off the seasonal drink menu, with the sliders (one for each of us this time) and the bird bowl. You can get the bird bowl with either regular or Nashville hot chicken. We opted for the Nashville hot, which my husband loved but was a bit too spicy for me (I can't handle hardly any spice, but it was still delicious). We seriously love this place and look forward to coming back when we are in the area. We for sure need to try the brunch, lunch, and dinner menus but when the food off the happy hour menu is this good it's so hard to keep getting the same thing!

Came here for Happy Hour with a few friends and we had a wonderful time. Everything we order was so good! Great service, great ambiance.

The food is always delicious and the service is great. It gets crowded on Sundays in the summer because of the farmers market so plan ahead

Service is pretty slow & there was barely anyone there when I went for lunch. I was enjoying my sandwich until I found a plastic bread tie in it. The staff was friendly to comp my meal but it took forever for them to come to the table. Cute little restaurant though.

The food here is great and the whole place has a beautiful aesthetic to it! They have a bar and an outdoor patio as well. Everyone is so nice and it's conveniently located on south Pearl street!

We drove a bit to try this place because we had a coupon and so glad we did! Food was all really delicious with notably fresh ingredients. The service was great and very friendly. Our server recommended the philly and the carrot bacon soup and both were spot on. Happy hour drinks were a great deal and all prices seemed really reasonable given the quality of the food. We will definitely be back to this great little spot!

Such a great location and today had plenty of DU grads and their families. The staff were very accommodating, but it took awhile to get service. Not sure of the problem since there seemed to be enough servers. They apologized for the delay and since we were sitting outside enjoying the day before it rained, we did not care. I ordered a drink and honest to god the sweet waitress was tipping the glass and I was panicking seeing my drink spilling out of the glass. I ordered the strawberry salad with chicken and it was fine. Nothing special and chicken was a little dry. 2 friends ordered entrees with poached eggs. Both of them got one hard boiled egg and the other was super runny. The last entree was a fried chicken sandwich with fries. Although promised ranch, it never arrived. The chicken was small and a little dry. Would I go back, probably - but not sure that I would break my neck to get there. You know it is good just not great.

Came in for brunch on a weekday with a friend. Not to brag, but are both Yelp Elite, haha! Not that it matters, but we love good food. We shared the Chicken and Waffles and Blackened Chicken Philly with a side of sweet potato fries. Both plates were delicious and chicken was juicy! Waffles were fluffy and the powdered sugar topped it off! The restaurant was bustling the entire time, but our server was attentive and sweet. Admittedly, we chose this spot because it was in the Denver Dining passbook (buy one get one free entree). So we also ordered coffee and lemonade to boost up our bill. Will definitely be back! Love the location on Pearl which is walking distance to some of my other favorites (Stella's, Tokyo Premium Bakery).

Good service was great and food is always amazing whether it's breakfast or dinner ! My boyfriend is a local and we eat here all the time and have always loved bringing friends. Great atmosphere inside or on the patio.

A friendly and professional waitstaff didn't make up for a wrongly-written menus and an inconsiderate kitchen staff. Plenty of better places to spend your eating out money!

Amazing food, cocktails, service and vibes. Immediately got sat on a super busy farmers market Sunday and had the best service at the bar from Jen- couldn't recommend this place or Jen more!

The duck, pork chops and Brussels sprouts were very good. The blueberry compote was extremely sour and acidic which I liked but the dish could use more sweetness. The hot toddy was nice. The old fashion was good. The meatloaf and shrimp poboy were mediocre. The menu items and naming implies southern and comfort food but none of the food actually tasted southern. Giving this place a 5/5 cuz the food, drinks and service were good but I won't visit this restaurant again because there are plenty of better options in Denver.

Great spot to grab brunch! There was plenty of parking and the service was great. We didn't have to wait long for a table either. I got the Chicken and Waffles and didn't regret it. I highly recommend getting it Nashville hot if you like it spicy. The chicken was crispy, the waffle was fluffy and the gravy went perfectly with the chicken. I definitely need to come back and try out the rest of their brunch menu!

The food and service are always disappointing. It's a lot of unfulfilled expectations -- looks cool, fun menu, nice servers... But then reality hits. The food is slow or mixed up. The servers are no where to be found. They don't know the nuances of the menu. The food is mediocre -- most of which appears to come from frozen mass production. (The same owner as Uno Mas a couple doors down, yet their guacamole on the eggs Benny is flavorless and surely comes from a bag.) The price, location, and ambiance make me think it's worth another try... alas I'm repeatedly disappointed. I won't be back again, I say! Fingers crossed. Writing this review to remind myself it's just not worth the let down. ‍

Cute place but service is absolutely brutal. Hostess does a good job of getting people seated but rest of staff spends more time chatting with each other than serving customers.

Such a fantastic experience! We were visiting friends in Denver and they took us here for a quick brunch before a day of activities. It was a 60 degree Sunday in February around 11:00am so they had both indoor and outdoor patio seating. We opted for the indoor by an open window. We were immediately sat as we got lucky with one open table. The hostess was welcoming, the atmosphere was very well kept and had a great "Denver vibe", and there was no overpowering music blaring. Our waitress came immediately with waters and gave us some time to review the menus. We had a group of 4, and we got the breakfast burrito (amazing and hearty), the egg and avocado toast with bacon (also great), a basic egg and bacon breakfast plate, and the chicken Philly (absolutely delicious and great portion). The meals ranged from $13-$20 each and we got one juice with the bill coming to ~$100 with tip. Well priced for the quality of food, large portions, and great atmosphere. Parallel/street parking around and a lot of cute little shops on the street as well.

We enjoyed a sunny weekend brunch on the patio of Bird this past Sunday. I made a reservation beforehand which was a good idea. They don't have a ton of tables outside and each was full while we were there. They're also open for seating inside, if you're comfortable going that route! To eat, my husband and I split a small order of the mac and cheese as an app, and got the chicken and waffles, and huevos rancheros for mains. Out of the two, I preferred the chicken and waffles. The chicken was nicely fried and the gravy on top was great! The huevos rancheros weren't bad but didn't blow me away. The mac and cheese was pretty good but overall, wish there were a few more brunchy options as starters. To sip, I had a mimosa that hit the spot. Overall, we had a pretty good experience! If you're looking for a place off or Pearl Street for brunch, this is a solid bet.

My husband went to Pearl Street for their amazing farmer market and decided we should come back to check out the restaurants. We didn't expect to end up at Bird but it was a surprise delight! We sat at the bar. The food was flavorful and the bar tender, Peter was attentive and personable. I highly recommend trying a cocktail. The Pearl Street Flower was refreshing - a perfect drink for a summer night. Also, I got the chicken sandwich and truffle fries both delicious but would have to say the fries were a bit too salty. My husband got the burger with regular fries and we split a half order of Brussels sprouts which had a unique flavor. We will be back to try the brunch!

My wife and I were looking for a place to eat and wanted to try something new. We've exhausted the main street Littleton restaurants and headed up Broadway to see what we could find. I remembered Pearl Street was a cute few blocks of restaurants and shops so we headed that way. We started at Iowa and Pearl and headed north. We saw Sexy Pizza, but had pizza the night before. Then a few buildings farther, we saw a sign that said, "Bird". While we guessed what that might signify we noticed the subtitle "American Comfort Food". We were hooked. The night was perfect weather for outside dining so we picked a table on the cozy front patio. When our server, Joshua, took our order my wife got a salad with pan-roasted shrimp. I ordered the Angus burger. It came on a bun that tasted like it was just baked that afternoon. Both of us cleaned our plates. It's not that we were starving, it was because the food was just that good. If you're looking for great food and an intimate environment, head over to Bird. Your stomach and mate will thank you.

The server Day was awesome! I ordered the fried chicken Benedict and it was overall pretty good, but I was really disappointed in the biscuit they used because it was like a hockey puck! I am a huge biscuit fan and make them all the time, and I immediately suspected maybe it had been microwaved because the texture was just so hard and unlike any biscuit I've ever made or had before. Other than that, it was a wonderful experience, I'll definitely be back!

We love this place for the most part. The Brussels are the best around!! They had a carrot soup that was also amazing. Today, however, I ordered the turkey club. It looked so amazing when it arrived. Only to find it had nasty rotten avocado. Not only was the avocado not even green, but brown.... It was so bad it wasn't even in slices anymore but a mush across the bread. Had to leave with our food in boxes since we didn't have time to eat after they remade it. Came back to add it wasn't terrible but I wouldn't get it again. Only had a few bites as the turkey was dripping water and the bread was soggy and wet.

Meh. Disingenuous server who couldn't be bothered though not busy. Outrageous prices for what you get. Avocado toast not even toasted and dry. Chicken dry on strawberry salad. Not been worth going out anymore - better to just cook at home. Very disappointing.

Made a pit stop on Pearl street to check out Bird, and I'm glad I did! Hot chocolate is not on the menu but they were happy to accommodate. Food tasted fresh. Thank you to my server Lauren! So sweet and wonderful service.

We went there for the first time and we were greatly surprised. The ambiance was inviting and the food we ordered was Yum! We will definitely go back there again!
