Diner notes
5 out of 5
Came here with my girlfriend for brunch on a Saturday. The fizzy lavender lemonade was deliciously tart and you could actually taste the lavender. The maple butter pecan latte was rich, creamy, and had some nice latte art on top. We tried the duck fat potatoes with garlic butter and they were crispy and piping hot. The lemon meringue French toast was incredibly decadent, fluffy, and melt-in-your-mouth. Finally, the cider braised pork and spatzle was the best thing I've eaten in recent memory. The pork was slightly tart, deeply flavorful, and braised to perfection. The spatzle and pickled cabbage were the perfect pairing for this rich dish. Service was also friendly and prompt, and the restaurant decor is full of character. I would highly recommend coming here for brunch or lunch, especially on the weekend!

We’ve been to this place twice and each time is amazing. Presentation is everything and their kitchen goes above and beyond to plate it pretty. For two people it usually comes out 50-70$ so it is a little pricey for two coffees, a pastry, a sandwich, and another dish. I’ve come to expect that but it’s the experience. Whether you eat inside or outside - it’s a nice spot of have a quiet brunch and enjoy spending time with your significant other. :)

This place is so amazing! I loved everything I got! I had a maple butter pecan latte and the lemon meringue french toast. The latte was so rich and creamy, not too sweet and the toast was THICK, rich and decadent. They had so many unique dishes. I highly recommend! Ovenbird, don't change a thing!

Tell us what you ordered and what it cost. Two or three sentences about one dish is more useful to the next person than a star rating.
