During these cold days, my boyfriend and I have been visiting a TON of coffee shops. We came to Birdie's and it was super lively! There were lots of people studying, catching up, reading, and enjoying their drink. I think the place is decorated beautifully, especially with all the hanging plants. The drinks were yummy and the seating was pretty comfy. The only thing is, this is NOT a quiet coffee shop. Especially on busy days. I enjoyed the chatter but I would not come here to do work. Only to talk with friends. read more

The coffee shop itself is cute and has overall good vibes. The coffee is okay but overall the speciality drinks just never hit the right flavor mark sadly. If you want something for breakfast other than a bakery item then this isn't the place for you but the bakery items I have tried have all been very tasty. The white chocolate raspberry muffin is my favorite. My son with a peanut allergy has never had an issue with the bakery items! The service also is sometimes hit or miss when I have been in there. Overall the staff all seems young (maybe high school or early college) and sometimes seem more worried about chatting with co workers than getting the customers served! They are always kind just seem distracted. Parking is overall pretty easy on the street because the lot next to the shop is very small! Not really a kid friendly place! read more

Birdie's has been on my list for a while, and I'm glad I finally made it over. It's such a cute, welcoming space. I went around 9:30am and it was very crowded -- but honestly, that's to be expected in Norwood. It clearly has a loyal following. The energy is lively and upbeat, which makes it great for casual meet-ups or getting out of the house to work for a bit. I'm not much of a coffee drinker, but the smell alone makes you want to order one. I opted for a jasmine green tea with honey and lavender syrup, and it was light, floral, and really smooth. I also tried the coffee cake, which was a solid choice and paired nicely with my tea. The staff was friendly and efficient despite the rush, which I always appreciate. One thing to note -- it does get loud, so it's probably not the best spot for a serious or quiet conversation. The outdoor seating area looks like it would be lovely when the weather cooperates (sadly it was raining during my visit). Parking was easy with plenty of street options and a small lot behind the building. Overall, it's a great neighborhood coffee shop with a fun vibe. I'll definitely be back. read more

Birdie's is one of my favorite spots to work, meet friends, or just enjoy a delicious cup of coffee. Their interior is festooned with a variety of fun chairs- my favorite is the conversation seat. And they boast a rooftop for sitting out in the sun. On my most recent visit, I enjoyed a banana pudding macha. It tasted like a great big smile with nilla wafer pieces and cloud foam on top. The people behind the counter are endlessly kind and always go out of their way to make sure their customers have a great day. Because it's so great, it will likely be busy; but I've always found a spot to sit and enjoy. read more

Cute little spot! I just ordered an oat milk latte. It was pretty good though. I would go back.

Wow this place is really cool! I would say it's more of an upscale coffee house. It's really nicely decorated and the vibes are great with a lot of super comfortable seating. The coffee and service was also excellent, I had the pistachio shaken espresso and will definitely be back to have it again. I also had the chicken salad croissant which might be the best chicken salad I have ever had. The building sits in the cutest neighborhood with a kids corner and plenty of outdoor seating as well! read more

Looking for your next cozy study spot? Birdie's Coffee Co. in Norwood, OH has all the perfect vibes. From their delicious fall menu to the calm and relaxing seating, this place is a must-visit. The staff was so kind and welcoming, which made the experience even better. We tried their seasonal Harvest Moon, an iced maple shaken espresso topped with sea salt, a splash of milk, and finished with pumpkin cold foam. The verdict? Absolutely to die for. The perfect fall drink! Add Birdie's Coffee to your list of spots to check out this season, you won't regret it! read more

I like that they have unique drinks every month - this month I had the strawberry cupcake cappuccino and it was decent! I wish they had it as a latte version. It's also always ps led when I've come so finding a place to sit and work can be a challenge. read more

Birdie's is a cute spot in Norwood. I've used it a few times to meet with members of my organization and it's got everything you'd want in a coffeehouse. Free secure wi-fi - with the login details on wall signs - I hate having to ask; I feel like such a mooch. A variety of tables with comfy seating and a mix of high and low-top table. And the most clutch - there are outlets everywhere. I like a spot that clearly implies that you can hang out as long as you'd like. I went to another Norwood coffeehouse that gave you a slip of paper with a set number of hours of wi-fi based on how much you spent and it was a turn-off. My latte was delicious and included art in the foam as is the norm these days. I haven't tried the eats yet but they looked tempting. I will definitely go back and maybe stay a little longer than just a meeting. BTW - it's at the corner of a big intersection and it's street parking. Know before you go! read more

Glad we found our way to Birdies! Excellent friendly and efficient staff, delicious pastries. Pretty quick service. Had an iced vanilla latte, hot cocoa, almond cookie and pistachio croissant, taken to-go. Big space for sitting inside with cute decor and a neat little kids corner too. Saw many customers reading or working in their laptops, plus sitting at several tables outside. It's a little coffee oasis in a neighborhood with a very small parking lot. Street parking mostly though, and seems like a lot of locals walk there. read more

Cute coffee spot with tons of drink options, including seasonal specials. I got a dirty chai latte and it was delicious. I met a friend here during the week, and we happened to get lucky that someone was leaving just as we walked in, seating was hard to come by. A lot of people were working from the shop, so most of the tables were taken and the space is pretty tight. Quick heads up: definitely don't bring a stroller if you're coming with little ones; there's not much room to maneuver. Overall, great drinks and a cozy vibe, just go during a less busy time if you want to sit and stay awhile! read more

The cutest cafe!! Loved the vibes inside and out. Birdie's is on the corner of a cute neighborhood in Norwood and was so fun to grab our coffees to go and stroll around the area. It's so cute inside and there were many people inside working and hanging out. Lots of tables inside and out. Service was good and quick. I got a dirty iced chai which was good, and they had a number of monthly specials that sounded delicious! Pastries are available for purchase as well. Great place to grab a drink and enjoy some time! read more

I've been mixing it and hitting coffee shops that are not in my usual rotation. I circled back to Birdie's and was really pleased. The place is buzzing busy which is awesome to see. Very friendly staff and good WiFi. Plenty of seating options but it was crowded. Love the design an there's a small kids play area. I had the dirty birdie drink and enjoyed it. Packed a nice punch of caffeine. Parking was a bit tricky due to the crowd. They have a small parking lot in the back but that fills up quickly. read more

Coffee and atmosphere is great but don't ever buy a large coffee. We got 2 large specialty drinks and paid the price set for a large and it's the same amount as a medium and when asked they said that's just how the machine works....so that's a scam. Just get mediums don't expect to get anything more for a to-go large, so stupid read more

This is an adorable coffee shop nestled in an adorable neighborhood. It is obviously very popular and had a great vibe. Our coffee was delicious and we'll plan to be hungry next time because the croissants looked incredible! The staff was busy but friendly and attentive. read more

Yet another Birdies review! I can't say enough about this place and yet again it was a great experience. It is always so convenient for me being only a few blocks away. This time I went a little out of the box and got a matcha latte, which is not something I get often. It was really good, a very pretty green color. It wasn't chalky like they can sometimes be, and was very refreshing and tasty, not too grassy as they can also be haha! The service is always very nice and fast, they are super with the speed no matter how busy it is. I will probably go here next week being me, and maybe I will try something new again! read more

I love this quaint and cozy local coffee shop! I had never been here before, but always drove past it and wondered what it was like inside. I loved the decor and the vibes of the place. The staff were super friendly even while they were so busy making coffee and preparing pastries and bagels. They were very welcoming, and I appreciate that from them! I will say that this place does get very busy. In fact, there were lots of people waiting for seats. However, on a warmer day, they do have outdoor seating on the patio, so that would probably help with some congestion. The place is on the darker side, but I like that. There is a parking lot behind the shop, but it also fills up as there are only 8-10 parking spots, but there is PLENTY of street parking around. I recommend giving this place a visit, even if it's just stopping in and getting coffee and a bagel to go! I'm looking forward to visiting again when the weather is warm! read more

I visited Birdie's Coffee during a visit to Cincinnati. I searched for a place within walking distance of my air bnb. The walk thru the neighborhood was lovely due to the lush foliage and variety of architectural style in the homes. Upon entering, I felt like the outdoors came in with me. Such a beautiful environment with comfortable furniture that invites you to sit a spell. The staff gave a friendly greeting and offered plenty of time for me to make my selection. I enjoyed my blueberry waffle latte and almond cookie. I would definitely return and encourage you to visit as well. read more

Was looking for a place to sit and work and sip some coffee. Glad I found this place in this quiet neighborhood. Limited parking but great spot if you live nearby. Good service, barista is quick. Inside is very roomy, plenty of tables to hangout . Everyone is in their computer and Internet speed is fast enough to keep up. I like my iced coffee and almond cookies. It hit the spot. Almond cookies is hard on the outside and soft in the inside. read more

Beautiful coffee shop it makes me feel like I'm somewhere on vacation which I love for us native Cincinnatians. They have really tasty coffee. The service was also nice I was greeted with a warm welcome when I arrived. If you're looking for a place to get some work done have some yummy coffee, and snacks they have you covered. read more

Nice coffee house that was packed at 9am on a Tuesday. Coffee was excellent, I ordered a cold brew, Americano and blueberry muffin. Everything came out quickly but was very loud inside. read more

Birdies is a fabulous, cozy, neighborhood coffee shop! They have fresh, delicious coffee, fun specialty drinks, a great selection of pastries, gelato and even some light lunch selections, but the real magic for me is the warm, welcoming feeling I get when I walk in. Birdie's is a must see in the Cincinnati area! read more

Conclusion - Larger coffee shop, good for groups of 2-4 people. Ideal for college students studying or small group meetings. Professional coffee, order any traditional type of drink. (Ex. Macchiato, Cortado). Good for people who have questions about different types of coffee and are learning what they like.

First-time visit, came for the Cincy Coffee Battle. Arrived early in the morning, there was quite a long wait to order and wait for the food. The ambience was very cute and surprisingly spacious. Plenty of space to chat with a friend or get some work done. There is also a rooftop patio that I did not check out, but would love to return and see the neighborhood views. Quality of the coffee was great. Lots of coffee and non-coffee options, as well as bagels and pastries which you can ask to be warmed. The staff seemed a little stressed while working on all of the orders, but were apologetic about the wait. Would return read more

This place is so cute! The furniture and decor is elevated and stylish. Folks were focused working on laptops in the space and I could definitely see myself coming back here to work. The drinks came out fast and were delicious- I ordered a London Fog which was good- the sweetness level was lovely. My mom got one of the drink specials- a white chocolate horchata drink- but she said she didn't get much horchata flavor besides cinnamon, but she still liked it. The staff was courteous about letting us know when the restaurant closed, and were so helpful in the meantime with ordering. We were impressed and want to return! read more

Love the space, though it was pretty crowded we did luck out and find a table and three chairs. Drip coffee was self-serve, and pretty good - I enjoyed two cups. Pastries were not bad. It was very loud and chaotic when we arrived, but as we enjoyed our coffees and pastries a lot of the crowd left and it was much quieter and pleasant. Overall I would recommend as a great third place, but maybe not at peak crowded times. read more

The coffee is delicious, the flavors that they have offer a wide range of taste and their food is yummy. All of the workers have been nothing but kind, welcoming, and friendly. The people here are truly great, and I really do recommend it. However, I've noticed in recent months the popularity of this place has skyrocketed! Which is great for business! And makes me happy for the workers. However, it's no longer the cute cozy coffee shop hidden in Norwood that it once was. It's busy. It gets loud. And it gets crowded. Obviously, again, I'm super happy for the business and that Norwood has such a great local spot! But if you're looking for a quiet, cozy place to study, you either have to go super early, go two hours before closing, or find somewhere else. Still one of my favorite places to get a nice treat! read more

Love Birdie's! It's more than a coffee shop, also serving lunch plates with delicious chicken salad, bagels, muffins and much more! Birdie's is so cozy with a cute and warm welcoming atmosphere. Customer service is top notch! We can't wait to go back and also enjoy the rooftop patio! read more

Great vibes! Got a latte so can't really speak on the food but my latte was great! Service was quick even for a busy day like on a weekend

I love exploring new coffee shops and I am so glad I came here! The interior is adorable and the staff was friendly. I had a delicious dirty chai. The chai wasn't overly sweet and had the perfect amount of spice. It was bustling on a rainy Sunday morning. My drink came out quickly and the seating options were great. They even have a kids area. I plan to come back! read more

Birdies is a fun coffee shop with a good atmosphere. However, I was very dissapointed by my drink and service today. I ordered a strawberry vanilla cold brew. When I recieved it it tasted like strawberry and water in a cup of ice. I was not upset intially and just asked for a cup of plain cold brew to add to the drink and explained the situation. The person I asked got me the cup of cold brew, however, the worker next to her said "if you order strawberry vanilla it's not going to taste like coffee". This really bothered me as I ordered a cold brew which in my opinion should always taste like coffee, but regardless shouldn't taste like water. Her tone was just unacceptable. Overall, I am dissapointed by the service. read more

This place is cute as heck inside. We like coming here to work but it can be super busy at times. Coffee is average I'd say- about on par with most similar shops. read more

The smell of coffee welcomed me in to this charming corner coffee shop as I walked through the doors. The barista was friendly and informative on all of the options for food and drinks that they had from local vendors. I chose to get the Candy Cane Forest coffee drink from the holiday menu to try something different. I liked that it was well balanced with the white mocha and peppermint, but not too sweet even though there was whip cream and little candy and sprinkles on top. I love how this is an inviting coffee shop where you can grab a cup of coffee to go or sit and work on your laptop for hours. This is obviously a very popular shop as there were only a few seats available to sit and people were coming in every couple minutes. I will definitely be back! read more

Great coffee but the past few times I've come I've left without ordering because it's completely taken over by Xavier students every time, not a single bar stool or chair available. I saw networking and a job interview happening outside because there was no room inside. I don't know what the solution is but it deters all other demographics of customers read more

Such a bad experience that I had to write this review while sitting in here. Visiting the area from Chicago and saw a cute little coffee shop not too far from my hotel and decided to try it. I noticed on their menu they had chocolate chip scones so that was a plus for me to run over and try. I Uber over and it's a cute little location I walk in and stand in line. I get to the front of the line and the young girl didn't greet me. So I paused to see if she would say hello but didn't. I ended up speaking and told her I wanted a vanilla latte, I asked about the chocolate chip scones and she said they didn't have any but did recommend a chocolate chip muffin (gave add'l star for recommending something else). I ordered just the coffee and waited for my order to be ready. Called my name and once again, no "thank you" no "have a nice day" just passed me my drink. I ended up saying Thank you and NO you're welcome was said back to me. I didn't feel welcome here and the service here is piss poor. Sadly, I'll never come back. This type of customer service will NEVER fly in a big city. Do better BIRDIE Latte was decent but I've had better. read more

I've tried all the local coffee shops in Cincinnati and Birdies is the best quality and the most consistently good. I LOVE the Harvest Moon shaken espresso, maple syrup, oatmilk and a sprinkle of sea salt... it's absolute perfection. so simple and so good! this was a summer special and they are kind enough to always make it for me when I ask. I love the staff here. they take the time to know you and they are all great. Birdies is a comfort. So glad to have discovered them. read more

Cute new coffee shop alert!! Very, very cozy vibe inside of this new local coffee shop. Came here on a Friday morning and most of the seats were full! Got a cold brew and a pumpkin spice latte. These were both fantastic! So much so that we bought a bag of their coffee beans to take home. We got a Nutella scone which wasn't super great, which is the only reason for 4 stars, though I think they source their pastries from elsewhere. Fantastic new addition to the neighborhood, we will definitely be back! read more
