This place is hopping for lunch and I believe they will take reservations for a group. The bakery section is huge, but we went to enjoy lunch. I opted for a cup of soup, 1/2 sandwich for about 12$. Potato chips and a pickle are included. The chili chicken soup was hearty and tasty. There was a choice of creamy chicken broccoli and pasta figoli. I got the chicken salad sandwich on grain bread. Very good but I hear their curry chicken salad is better. When you go in, go directly to the cashier to order and pay. Then you will receive your good. It did come quickly and there is indoor outdoor seating. I'd definitely go back I highly recommend read more

Bluebird is truly a hidden gem. First of all, it's located on the cutest Village Square that is off the beaten path, but definitely worth a visit in Glendale. There's plenty of free parking and the gardens are always impeccably maintained. Go on a nice day so you can sit outside on their patio seats with umbrellas. That alone is a treat in itself! I've had Bluebird pastries before, and their scones are some of the best in the city, especially their cream cheese filled scone and their fruit filled scones. Today I was visiting for lunch and I was wary of their small menu because I am dairy free and I wasn't sure if there were many options for me. I called the shop and spoke to Kelly, one of the owners, who was able to give me a detailed rundown of the menu and explain that they would make several accommodations and there would be several options for me! She explained that they are happy to make accommodations and love when people ask. I ordered the soup sandwich combo, and enjoyed the turkey sandwich and watermelon gazpacho. The combo was a good size served with pickles and chips, and I was very satisfied. The watermelon gazpacho was especially delicious and a unique dish that I would recommend for summertime. I don't think a lot of people know about Bluebird and I wish they did - it's the sweetest little place and you will be very glad you visited! read more

While waiting for my hubby, I stopped by the Cafe. I was greeted as soon as I walked in the door. I made my self comfortable then ordered a coffee and one of their famous pecan sticky buns. While enjoying my treat I enjoyed the banter between the employees. It felt like I was invited into a friend's kitchen. I was there long enough to grab an Egg Salad sandwich and some PB cookies. It was all amazing. read more

This is a small family bakery in Glendale. There is a historically rustic feel to the shop which I found to be inviting. It reminds me of the various local bakeries I remember in my youth. The fare is simple sandwiches such as tuna or chicken salad. All are delicious. The bakery side means fresh and tasty desserts are a great cap to a meal or snack. People stop in with friends to chat with no pressure to leave. The staff are friendly and amiable! Not a large place but a cozy one for a few friends! read more

Stopped in for a little mid work day treat and got a slice of asparagus quiche and a cup of mushroom and barley soup. The quiche was okay-- made well, but not my favorite flavor. The soup, however, was some of the best I have ever had. My only regret is that I didn't buy the entire pot of it! They don't have it all the time since their soups rotate, but I bet the others are great if they are even half as good as the mushroom one! read more

Scones! I've had the dry, pasty ones from a grocery store and therefore I was never a big fan. But I found the Bluebird bakery and saw that they sells scones and I thought I'd give it a try. Those dry, flavorless things in the grocery have NOTHING in common with these delightful pastries. They are light and wonderfully tasty. I'm so impressed, I'm coming back tomorrow to give some of their other items a try and I'm bringing my husband! I'll take pictures this time before I devour my choices! More updates to come tomorrow! read more

Love this place. Best scones. Great place to enjoy a cup of coffee and a great scone to watch the sun come up.

The bakery is situated in a cute Glendale neighborhood. I ordered a curried chicken salad sandwich to-go and it was delicious (loved the raisins and apples in it). It comes with a pickle spear on the side and chips. The line was long but went quickly. I wish I had tried a slice or two of their pies! read more

quaint bakery in beautiful Glendale. Simple lunch homemade soup and chicken salad. Love small neighborhood spots with homemade food.

We love the Bluebird Bakery! The Sticky Buns, Coffee Cake, Key Lime Pie and Apple Pie are all favorites. The staff is friendly and Kelly, the owner is the best!! read more

Cute little bakery located in the town square. The scones were delicious, as was the breakfast sandwich. The coffee was hot and exceptional.

What a quintessential bakery in the Glendale village square. It's endearing with its tall ceilings, the antique wooden floor and charming furnishings. It offered a nice selection of fresh baked items and also lunch items- sandwiches. Quiche and soup. You can eat in or carry out. The service is always pleasant. The food and baked items delectable. read more

We came here while staying for the weekend near the convention center. It is nestled in a little quaint downtown area of Glendale. It was a sunny day in January and walking around was a great experience. The bluebird is a real, legit bakery making scones, pies, bars, cookies, buckeyes and other real fun treats. Want more than treats? Come for lunch. They have meatloaf, chicken salad, egg salad, curry chicken, soups, pb&j, turkey sandwiches and more. The coffee is good any kids said the hot chocolate was delicious! read more

The best pies in the city! My favorites are chocolate cream (very dark & rich), tart cherry and mixed berry. Their sandwiches are yummy too. This place is a gem read more

Great bakery and quiche. Friendly and well spoken young man who works in the summer time ! I don't eat there too noisy And the outside tables all taken! read more

I came here with my BFF for breakfast while I got tires on my car. This is a small kind of out of the way place that you can't even see from the main road. It is kind of town square from years gone by. You walk in and they have several tables and the counter is full of yummy options. We both got quiche and coffee and I also go a scone. The quiche is warmed up in a microwave so I would almost knock a star off, but I thought, they can't make everything fresh on the spot, this is a small bakery and it isn't like they have hundreds of people walking or driving by everyday. This is the hangout for friends and daycare moms. Service was very nice and the food was super yummy. I would be happy to recommend this unique place to anyone looking for something relaxing for a pastry or quiche. They also do sandwiches for lunch. read more

Everything is great, but my absolute favorite is their coconut cream pie. Great place for lunch too. read more

The pies are hardly fresh. They obviously keep them for several days. Crust was cold and damp, filling was dry and sticky. Service was unenthusiastic at best, won't be returning. read more

I have never tasted Key Lime Pie as good as theirs! Wonderful place in a wonderful village!

Mixed review on this bakery as I have only stopped in once to buy a pie. Service was mediocre- 3 high school kids more interested in each other than the customer. I ordered a pie and the kid I ordered it from had another kid stop what he was doing to box it. Then the first guy went to the register to wait for us to get there. I'm sure it would've been a different scenario if the owner was there. The pies are small (8" I'm guessing) and it was $30. For one small pie. My family loved it (triple berry) so what can you say? Except that I won't be back for pie. Even though it's a really good pie, no pie is worth that much for me. I will go back some time and try some other things, but I will definitely ask the price before I order tho! I can walk there so I was really looking forward to being a frequent customer. read more

Very popular place, lots of elderly people enjoying quiche and soups when I walked in. Such a cozy neighborhood place. The scones were very soft and had a good flavor but they didn't wow me. The chocolate chip cookie tasted like something I would bake at home, nothing super special. The lemon bar was yum yum. I really liked the lemon bar. I'm glad I finally made it here but unless I was in the mood for pie, it won't be a regular stop for me. read more

Very disappointed in this establishment, we went for breakfast and coffee this morning, the location and building are so cute, with so much potential. They don't have a breakfast menu, which would have been ok, if the bakery cases hadn't been mostly empty. I did get a scone, it was either that or biscotti, and the scone was flavorless and dry. The service was surly, coffee refills are not free, nothing welcoming about this place at all. read more

The food is good but the setting is perfection. I ordered a coffee and some sweet something and was in my car, ready to go when I looked around and thought "What am I doing?". The area was so beautiful and the day was so sublimely gorgeous that eating this meal in the car was just stupid. So I wandered back and found a table on the generous sidewalk and slowly enjoyed my meal and listened to the babbling fountain and soaked in the conversation. Friends greeted one another warmly and there was a fair amount of discussion about an upcoming wedding. I lingered longer, made faces at a sweet, pudgy faced boy and finished my meal. I went inside and saw patrons eating the bakery's version of an Egg McMuffin. I immediately wished I'd ordered that, somehow I'd missed it on their menu. What I had not missed was the posting that offered refills cheap. I sheepishly asked if I'd read the posting right and the cashier perkily responded in the affirmative. The manager then told her to just give it to me free. Two passable if not amazing coffees, a sweet baked good and a morning's worth of delightful conversation in an environment filled with flowers and warm sunshine. All of that for about $4. I drove away wondering if I could move here. read more

Bluebird Bakery is a lovely establishment in a very quaint small town. We enjoyed the coffee and bakery including iced cookies, mound bar and coconut cream pie. All were very good. The gentleman at the counter were extremely friendly and quick with helping us out. The only negative we experienced was being embarrassed by the owner (assume he is the owner). We were going to take things to go, but then Grandpa wanted to try his pie right away so he sat down at a table. (There were several other open tables available as well). The owner immediately reprimanded the staff about wasting the containers on us and even was telling him to remove it from the container and put it on a plate. Needless to say, we left and won't be back. While I can understand not wanting to be wasteful of to go containers, I didn't feel this was something that he necessarily needed to embarrass anyone for. read more

Very good food. The scones are to die for. Not your traditional dry scone, they're somewhere closer to a biscuit. I liked that most of them had a topping or filling of jam, it made them stand out. Quiche was also excellent, the handmade crust really made them shine. Only think that would make this place better would be espresso drink options. read more

It's ok. Stinky bathroom always. Sewer issue. Prices are pretty high and they want a tip when you bus your own table. Not the friendliest staff. I rarely go, and I'm sure they're ok with it. read more

We started our first visit at Bluebird Bakery with a meeting. I had hot tea and my husband ordered a coffee. He chose one of our favorite roasts, Highlander Grogg and he liked it a lot. My hot tea was just what I expected, but they had a good selection. The atmosphere was nice with mismatched tables, and they took a lot of care to prepare for little ones, with toys and a stool in the restroom. It's the little details that seem to impress me the most. The staff was friendly. I didn't feel rushed and she (sorry I forget her name) answered all my questions patiently, and I had a lot of questions about their baked goods and menu selections. We ordered breakfast to go with a dozen cookies. We ordered bacon, egg and cheese on a croissant for the entire family. My cookie selections included chocolate chip, peanut butter, oatmeal/raisin and sugar cookies. The sandwiches were amazingly delicious. There was quite a wait for them, but I suspect it's because the sandwiches are freshly made and it was evident in the quality of the sandwich. In fact, the cost is about the same price as fast food chains, but the quality is much better. So, if your in a hurry, you may want to call in your order ahead of time. Now the cookies were not my favorite, which is disappointing since they are a bakery. They weren't bad, but they didn't exceed my expectations, which is why I gave 4 stars. Looking forward to our next visit to try lunch and maybe a piece of pie. read more

The Bluebird is in charming Glendale and the sticky buns on Friday are fantastic. Scones are great. Meatloaf sandwich also great.

Excellent food and offerings - a warm place with very nice people. I'm a frequent visitor and expect to continue this habit. You can't beat the baked goods and the terrific lunch options. I encourage you to stop by and experience a very fine spot. read more

special trip just to visit and my cupcake was old, dry, stale. and inedible ! obviously everything is NOT fresh baked! what a disappointment! read more

Definitely a 5-star bakery. Delicious and beautiful food. Sadly the service is not. I keep going back because I love the place, but seem to leave disappointed every time feeling I was a bother to the staff who has to take my order and hand it to me. No special request, no changes to the menu, just a straight forward order. A kind word and a smile would go a long way. read more

Great pies great bakery. definitely on the pricey side. Nice place to sit inside and have coffee with your baked goods

Absolutely amazing place. They have desserts that make my mouth water when I drive past the place. And don't even get me started on the SOUPS. Despite being a bakery they have soups that would rival anything Gordon Ramsay makes. The staff is so helpful and kind it feels like I'm at my grandmothers house. However if I'm going to be completely honest. I would not try the sandwich's. The sandwich's are so good I can't stop eating them. I've gained 35 pounds and lost all my friends because all I do every day is eat the sandwich's. read more

Excellent pastries, outstanding chicken salad (by far my favorite) lively people working with you. If I had a complaint it would be they are not open every day (but I guess they too need rest to maintain they greatness ) read more

This place is a hidden gem on the outskirts of Sharonville. Stopped in here for coffee and was blown away by their menu. Plenty of good options for breakfast & lunch. Baked goods for your sweet tooth and good coffee. Prices were fair and the staff was great. Definitely on my list to visit again. read more

So I don't eat a lot of fruit pies. But, the triple berry pie was really good. I didn't warm it or anything. The berries had the right amount of sweet and tang and the crust was just flaky enough and perfect. I enjoyed the lemon bar, coffee and staff as well. read more

Wow! Bluebird finally upped its soup game. I've been coming here for years because it's close to my home. The food is just ok and the soups were hit or miss, mostly miss. Well, I heard they hired a new chef and she is making some absolutely delicious soups! I've had two soups so far and could not believe how good they were. Also the tuna salad tasted way better than usual. Keep up the good work, Bluebird! I have never recommended this place before, but I'm recommending it now! Bonus, it's in beautiful Glendale square and has a very nice outdoor eating area. read more

A family owned little bakery-restaurant in the heart of Glendale Square. Try the curry chicken salad. Possibly the best I've ever tasted.
