Cafe Blackbird

"First time going here. Went on a Saturday morning at around 11:30 am. There were a lot of pick ups while I was there. You order at the counter and the food is brought out to your table. It was a little confusing ordering since menu was for "brunch" but there weren't any egg dishes. Anyway, ordered a half sandwich and tomato basil soup. Soup of the day wasn't ready yet which was odd, I thought. Ordered mayonnaise on the sandwich and got mustard. Ordered coffee which came out after the soup and sandwich. They have funny, quirky service at Blackbird that I am not used to. Everything was ok and I would go back with my expectations reset. Note: the locks in the bathroom are questionable. Just confirm that the lock is set before you get comfortable. Blackbird is a cute place. I don't recommend the coffee unless you like it extra strong. It was undrinkable for me."

"Really good stuff here. Everything tastes wonderful and attention to detail is impressive. The only thing I didn't like is that side salads are served in these awkward cardboard bowls and they fall out easily onto the table. But everything else is 100% wonderful."

"I had the pleasure of dining at Cafe Blackbird today, and I must say it was a delightful experience from start to finish. Located in the heart of downtown Denison, there is ample street parking, making it easily accessible. Upon entering, I was immediately charmed by the lovely little guest book nestled among shelves of merchandise. What a unique touch! They even have a special offer where you receive a free coffee with the purchase of a new book. The atmosphere at Cafe Blackbird is warm and inviting, and the interactions with the staff were nothing short of friendly. Ordering was a breeze at the counter, and they provide a number for your table, ensuring that your food is delivered promptly. Now, let's talk about the food. We ordered The Hippie sandwich and a half strawberry salad, as well as a half toasted turkey sandwich with a cup of the soup of the day. The portions were more than generous for a quick lunch, and every bite tasted wonderfully fresh. The combination of flavors in each dish was a real treat for the taste buds. Cafe Blackbird has left us eager to return and explore more of their menu options, and I've heard their desserts are not to be missed. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and pay a visit to this charming establishment. You won't be disappointed!"

"I absolutely love Café Blackbird. Their garden salad with Greek dressing, the Hippie veggie sandwich, and the Greek sandwich are among my favorite things to order. The portions are large, prices are very reasonable, and everything is fresh and delicious. The desserts are another major highlight - BEST cookies ever!! I always just get my orders to-go, but need to hang out in there and dine in one day. Employees are always friendly, and I can’t recommend this place enough."

"Great local place for soups, salads, sandwiches and pastries. They also have a great coffee bar. All food items are made from scratch daily. Locally owned and operated. This is a must stop for breakfast or lunch if your in downtown historic Denison Texas!"
