I've only had the chance to go once, but I loved it. The Garden Bird is wonderful.
I am a regular and love it (my office is upstairs). The coffee is great too, particularly the Maple Tap. They put a touch of maple syrup in the ground beans, just enough to taste the maple but not so much to make it sickly sweet like the Starbucks coffees.
Been twice, left happy both times. Not sure I can really go there more than once or twice a month though. Those things are gut-bombs of the highest proportion.
This is a weekly stop for me!
I liked how they associated your order with your answer to a unique question "What is your dream vacation spot" etc, caught me off guard but...it was different, took me out of my daily autopilot mode. I did the sticky maple to branch out of my comfort zone, but I want to try the more traditional chicken biscuit with gravy next time.
Plus, I couldn't nom out like I normally do because Wayne Weaver walked in and sat at the table next to us so I felt the need to eat like a normal human being for once. Those biscuits are something you want to devour and not eat daintily.
Definitely one of our favorite stops for breakfast on the weekends. So happy that they are here and hope for continued success for them!
We went there last week and it was honestly one of the best breakfasts we have ever had. I had the Five and Dime, my wife had the Double Ralphie. The chicken on the Five was seriously the absolute best fried chicken I've ever had. My family comes from rural georgia and their breakfasts were legendary. I've always been very critical of attempts at sausage gravy and I have to say, their gravy knocks the socks off of any sausage gravy I've had, even my 91 year old aunt's recipe can't touch it. Same story for the biscuits.
Just excellent food, great service and a great location. We'll be back for sure.
I've been in once and I like the place, but I've gotta say...

One of my new favourites, but gotta be careful about going there too frequently. Might end up losing the girlish figure.
