Louise had the corn & cheese toastie. She said, “Little Bird is currently my obsession while navigating a GF, DF and SF elimination diet. Happy to browse a menu where I can eat everything!”
Mel had the kimchi waffles with salad and drank a reishi latte. She said, “My waffles were so good, such a great combo with the yoghurt and kimchi sauce and the green side salad,the dressing was delish! Super busy place, we only just managed to score a table. Everything is tucked in tight, but actually I didn’t mind, it kinda suited the place. We got some of their sweet treats to takeaway, and they did not disappoint. My fave being the bounty bar, mmmm!”
Sam had the Vietnamese crepe with salad and drank a mocha maca mug. He said, “Really nice cafe and all the food looks sooo good, the cabinet treats are the best. Portion sizes are on the bigger side but that’s ok. There’s more on the menu I want to try so I’ll be back, and those treats in the cabinet made up for all the salad.”
Sarah had the carrot soup and drank an earl grey kombucha. She said, “This place is super lovely vibes and makes you feel healthy just walking in. Great flavours in the soup, very generous portions and great service.”
