This restaurant is perfect for dogs since they have a covered patio! It's comfortable but not super casual, making for a delightful ambiance. I like that you order at the counter and your food is brought to you. The servers are kind and make sure to take care of you! To drink, I had their special lavender mocha, iced. You first taste the chocolate and then a hint of lavender. The mango mule and strawberry basil spritzer are delicious drinks too. To eat, we had the pulled pork sandwich, the blue burger, and the lamb burger. The burgers were cooked nicely and were flavorful. The pulled pork is tender and tasty! My favorite part of the dish is the fries--if you're a French fry fiend, make sure to come here and get their fries! We'll definitely continue to come back to Blackbird for lunch!

A great coffee drink with delicious salted caramel and vanilla notes. The breakfast sandwich (Bagel, ham, egg, cheese) was yummy too. The reason I'm giving 4 stars is because they were out of a lot of the food options, and it was around 9:15 am when I went. I'll definitely return and hopefully they'll have more food options then!

There has been some controversy about church owned coffee shops in Shoreline. I ordered a coffee and then politely asked where was their pride ‍ flag or sign. They said they didn't have one so I offered to bring them one and they seemed delighted, and thanked me. The pride flag I ordered is an 8 x 10 sign, has all the colors, and says in bold print EVERYONE IS WELCOME HERE. On 11/17 I returned to the coffee shop. I had to wait a few minutes to speak with the manager. As we began to chat, another person suddenly joined her and took over the conversation, as I explained I'd been there last Wednesday and the agreement we had. He went on to tell me they are NEUTRAL and do not want to "offend" anyone. When I told them a sign like this should not be considered offensive, and if it were offensive to someone, maybe they didn't want that customer anyway. I said I have grandchildren who are both gay and mixed race and it's important for them to feel safe in certain environments. I told them about how my lesbian college-age granddaughter had to walk nearly a mile to find a coffee shop last summer where she felt comfortable. (She doesn't patronize Starbucks. She walked to Diva on 145th.) They felt that was too bad for her. But ... they were very adamant in their NEUTRAL position. I tried explaining how important these signs are to the LGBTQ community. They did repeat several times that they were NEUTRAL. I left the signs with them and drive by often to check and see if they're in the windows. They are not. Either perhaps in the garbage or on a shelf in some back room. The last thing we want to do in the environment we're currently living in is to remain neutral. We need to reach our hands across. In a "Christian" environment, I would expect nothing less.
