Had breakfast here this morning. Food was 3/5. I ordered an omelet with toast and home fries, a hot chocolate, and a waffle. The waffle was the best out of everything. Not bad. I wouldn't go out of my way way to come here again, but I would be opposed to either. read more

Bluebird Cafe - Breakfast burrito with a side of cheese grits! - Diners Near Me - Wakefield, Rhode Island

When up to visit family and they took me to this little gem. What a fantastic spot! The waitress came to take my order and all I could say was coffee. The selection was great. Everything sounded good. As I searched the menu, I watched the waitress bring other selections to other patrons. That made it even more difficult. Knowing my stomach was only so big, I order the Friday night chef special and special it was. Needless to say the Blue Bird saved my family from cooking a few meals because I had to come back. The only negative thing I can say about this place is there isn't one in Florida. I will be coming back as soon as I come to visit family again. Save your manicure and don't do dishes. Come to the Blue Bird and enjoy! read more

If you want something a just a little different from your normal breakfast fare then this is a good place. Many of their dishes have a Cajun/New Orleans flavor that they do just right - not overwhelming, just gives the food a little kick. First we had the Cajun Eggs Benedict and it was very good. Made with house made biscuit and scrambled eggs cooked just right by still being moist, biscuit was average. We took a chance and tried the special Jambalaya hash and it was excellent! Made with rice and shrimp and andouille sausage with just a little kick of spice and excellent flavor. We also had pancakes which were nice and thick but average. The only downside was no real maple syrup, but for the price it was okay. We also had the waffle and chicken with hollandaise sauce and it was also good, again the sauce had just a little kick! Service was also friendly and quick. read more

The bluebird cafe was amazing and the service and atmosphere made for a very enjoyable chill breakfast experience. The food was prepared amazingly and the coffee was great. Would recommend read more

Yes yes & more yes!!! I wish i lived closer to this adorable restaurant. The staff is incredibly friendly and the food is so incredible. The prices are more than fair. I was so satisfied after we left here for breakfast. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a good spot to grab a bite. We need more places like this one! read more

Small place with BIG flavors! Wife had huevos rancheros and I had jambalaya hashed it was great. Place has a Mardi Gras vibe, so they offer a few New Orleans inspired dishes. Kids demolished their food as well, which is high praise indeed. That coupled with a bunch of locals should let you know that they do it right here. Highly recommend this place. read more

Love their corned beef hash and Cajun eggs Benedict. Lovely Cajun touch to South County. Their service is incredible!!!

This place is by far the best breakfast place in the area. The food is always so good no matter what you order. My buddies and I come here all the time and the service is always good, food is always good, and it's not expensive. Best part is its BYOB. read more

The service is very attentive at the Bluebird Cafe. I'm always asked if I want more coffee. Yesterday, I tried the grits, and they were delicious. I also ordered the huevos rancheros, and that order comes with homemade salsa, very tasty black beans (not out of a can), cotija cheese, and farm-fresh eggs. It was a healthy breakfast that kept me full all day. This place is not much to look at from the street, as it has plain signage and is hidden in a strip mall, but if you ask any local where to get the best breakfast in town, they'll point you to the Bluebird. The breakfast at the Bluebird Cafe is outstanding, the food is homemade, and the portions are generous. read more

Bluebird will forever be my favorite breakfast cafe. Every time we travel back to RI to see family, we always grab breakfast here. My favorite is the amazing huevos rancheros (best I've ever had!!), home fries, and their delicious grilled muffins. read more

Great breakfast! Get the homemade corned beef hash!! You won't be disappointed! The staff is friendly and the service is great!

Absolutely phenomenal breakfast and service today! Who can beat expertly done jambalaya hash, cajun biscuits, great coffee- plus the topper: mentioned to waitress that Crab soup on lunch special board looks delicious and she gives us samples!!I would suggest to anyone thinking of lunch today - go in for spicy blue crab soup! read more

This was our first visit to Bluebird. We have vacationed in this area for many years and decided to try this place for breakfast. It is Sunday at 10:00 and there is no wait to get to our table. The server is friendly and our coffee arrives soon after we sit down. The wife orders Huevos Ranchero after reading so many positive reviews and for me it is always blueberry pancakes and bacon. The real maple syrup is less than a buck which is the cheapest we have ever paid for 1.8 ounces. The restaurant is now pretty full, not one empty space left, as we wait for our meals to arrive. Yo give you some history I do not eat eggs so we are always searching for great pancakes. I think I found my blue bird of happiness. This restaurant makes the best blueberry pancakes I have ever tasted in Rhode Island. They were fluffy, loaded with berries and tasted incredible with real maple syrup. The bacon was well done, but very fatty and quite thin, but who cares, the pancakes were great! My wife's Huevos Ranchero met the high raves of other reviewers. The service was quick and Debbie did a great job of filling our coffee cup. She says she is not a regular and only helps out on Sundays. She let me take her photo but didn't want it published. She joked that she was in the federal protection system . One other thing the prices were very reasonable. We shall return soon. read more

Bluebird Cafe - Fantastic blueberry pancakes - Diners Near Me - Wakefield, Rhode Island

See all

I've been going here with my family for about 15 years and it is the definition of a hidden gem. The Cajun themed dinners on Friday are something special. read more

I had the best corned beef hash I have had ANYWHERE. One of the problems with hash is usually they make it too salty. This had just the right amount of salt. I would definitely go here again! I wanted to keep eating the hash until I exploded. My buddy did have hair in his water, so I guess that takes a star off :) read more

Good food but the service was a little slow. Chicken and waffle Benedict was great and the pancakes were delicious

Best Huevos Rancheros east of Sante Fe! This place is highly recommnded! read more

I love that they have grits! Not a lot of places around here offer that for a side! I always end up having the same thing when I go there, tomato & ch. omelet, rye tst, and grits. Huevos Rancheros are also VERY good. Staff is very friendly, though not very attentive. Does that make sense???? If you are not too concerned about getting your coffee refilled, or being asked how the meal was, but getting to enjoy some REALLY good food cheap...go! read more

I'm going to break character for a second here, and just totally let loose about how amazing this restaurant it. The Bluebird is an absolute gem, and I will sing their praises to the rafters or anyone else who cares to listen. Our food (a couple of the Friday night dinner specials) was amazing, the service was friendly in a genuine way, and the prices cannot be beat! In particular I was amazed by the fact that my crawfish piquante was actually pretty spicy! In the West Bay! Who KNEW?!? It is clear that the people running this place care about both their food, and the community they serve it to. I can't wait to become a regular and I hope the rest of you will join me in working to make the business owners wealthy beyond the dreams of avarice. read more

Bluebird Cafe - It looks rull good. - Diners Near Me - Wakefield, Rhode Island

When it comes to breakfast food- I want my plates full, the food scrumptious and certainly don't want to empty my pockets for a completely satisfying meal. With that said..... I had been here once before a couple years ago with a buddy of mine who just LOVES it, (especially the Huevos Rancheros). Although, he is very close friends with someone of the family and got that "friendly service". Also, I did not know until a recent return, a discount as well. So, upon my return a couple weeks ago with another friend of mine. I was a tad surprised when my breakfast came to about 35$. Not cool Bluebird to charge some for your maple syrup and not others. ESPECIALLY, when you charge a buck a spoonful. (very small bottles - $1 a bottle) Don't even bother if you get pancakes/a waffle. You will be spending 3$ on syrup alone. I also want to point out the fact, I clearly remember getting plates with the food FLOWING over when I came by with my friend who knew them. Oh, but now, Not only did we spend much more money, there was less on our plates. We didn't really order that much, but overall, every little thing is priced oddly. You can get 1 egg with two sides for about 3 and change. But if you want just the damn egg, that's 2 dollars? I understand family owned businesses have to do what they need to in order to stay afloat, buuuuut, I've been to plenty breakfast shops with better tasting and cheaper food. Soo, what? I need to bring by the 'friend of the family' in order to have a good breakfast? Thanks Bluebird, but no thanks. I hear you have amazing biscuits? Maybe I'll pick up a couple driving by sometime... read more

Blue bird café, well I found this Lil gem with my favorite app called yelp! And I'm so glad I did. I had the huevo rancheros Wich was not what i had in mind, but I'm so happy I did! So so good tons of flavor very filling and I would order it again and again! read more

Bluebird Cafe - Yummer! - Diners Near Me - Wakefield, Rhode Island

We are not from the Wakefield area but met friends here at their suggestion. I began to regret it as soon as I pulled out my chair as it was sticky, and I moved over to another seat at the table and that chair was sticky, also. Yuck. 3 out of 4 of us ordered spicy food; I was the holdout as I do not eat it so I had the Chef Salad. Ambiance is zero. Service is friendly but insufficient. Bathroom is clean. I'm being nice because now I need to say this. We ate there last night around 7:00 PM. It is now 10:00 PM the day after. Nausea and diarrhea started for both of us this morning, still ongoing. Not feverish, not chills...it's not a bug. We ate completely different food (salad vs jumbalaya). I can only surmise that food handling, quality of ingredients, something universal...made us so sick. The onset of symptoms is about right for our meal there as the culprit. Decide for yourself. read more

This rating is strictly based on the horrendous service (lack thereof) that my wife and I received a couple of Sundays ago. We waited a solid 15 minutes at our table and were not even looked at by the two waitresses who were serving tables all around us. No acknowledgment, water, I'll be right with you, nothing! We finally got up to exit and a third waitress at the register spoke to us for the first time since we had entered and politely said "Have a nice day." My wife lost it and said "we were never served!" I know the food is good but we will never be back. read more

Years of great grits! excellent service good company and really interesting specials. Busy in summer and week ends but worth the wait! read more

Bluebird Cafe - a purple flower in the middle of the ground - Diners Near Me - Wakefield, Rhode Island

Compared to other cafes, Bluebird is an average breakfast place at most. What is truly amazing is their Friday night dinner specials. Two new specials every week--usually one poultry/red meat and one seafood. Never had a bad meal there. Every flavor is superbly balanced and intensely delicious. My favorite is their adobo slow cooked ribs with pickled onions. The jambalaya is always on the dinner menu--a GIANT portion of pure spicy goodness for only $12. The key lime pie is the best I've ever had. I look forward to bluebird dinner all week. read more

This is a little neighborhood breakfast spot that is very busy. The food was good but not exceptional. My hubby had the huevos rancheros and loved it. I ordered eggs over medium well and they were served over easy (I do not like running whites, which I stressed to our waitress). With that. I still gave it a 3-star because the locals seem to live it. We would go there again. read more

Went to Bluebird on Saturday morning to get some egg sandwiches for breakfast, but ended up getting getting the rancheros instead! The fella got the traditional huevos rancheros, and I decided to get the verduras rancheras to shake things up a little bit. We weren't sure if we should get the small or large, but our server (sidenote: everyone that works here is amazingly friendly and immediately warm and welcoming) recommended the large. It might have been just a tad too much, but the small wouldn't have been enough for us two hungry, no-longer-growing adults. This is straight up home cooking style, and really good at that. Gordon Ramsey wouldn't give Bluebird any points for presentation, but the food speaks for itself. Fresh ingredients, good corn tortillas, and the biscuit! The biscuit was divine. As a veg, I often can't eat homestyle biscuits, but I was assured that these were not made with lard and I'm very glad for that. I'm thankful Bluebird isn't within walking distance because I could easily see myself grabbing a biscuit (or more than one) daily. Anyway. Reasonable prices, a friendly staff and good, comforting food. And even late-morning on a Saturday, it wasn't hard to get a table. Bluebird is definitely going to be my go-to breakfast spot when we have visitors! read more

The Bluebird Cafe is a quaint, family-owned restaurant that specializes in mainly breakfast items. A group of us were very hungry on a Saturday morning after a long night of activity and craved good breakfast foods. We walked in and the place was quite busy. We were seated right away, however, and the server took care of us almost immediately. I ordered a build your own omelet, which consisted of three fresh eggs, served with toast or a biscuit, and my choice of home fries, yellow grits, or black beans. I'd highly recommend the biscuits and home fries. You are able to pick your ingredients--ingredients included grilled onions, mushrooms, feta cheese, Swiss cheese, jalapenos, chicken, ham, tomatoes, sausage, chilies, spinach, bacon, and more. It's completely up to you! All of this for only $6. We also drank coffee, milk, and orange juice. All toast is served buttered, so if you don't want butter, you must request it without. Bluebird was exactly what I needed. read more

Great spot for a quick breakfast! Corn beef hash and huevos rancheros are very good. Service is super fast and pleasant. Tucked back in plaza so easy to miss. read more

GO to the Bluebird cafe!!! Their food is truly inspired! The Cajun/New Orleans style influence is amazing and unlike any other place in town. The specials are always different and unique. (Don't worry they have something for the picky eater in your group too). This place is a true hidden gem. read more

I love coming for Friday night dinners. The Louisiana specials are typically awesome. Very casual and intimate. Many regulars.

We stopped here for Sunday brunch with a group of 4 on our way home from visiting the beach. The service was fast & friendly and the food was very good (& well priced!!). I got blueberry pancakes & 2 eggs and my boyfriend got the fried crawfish sandwich which he loved. The menu has a lottt of good choices & it was hard to pick because everything looked and sounded so good. It's not huge inside so we thought we may have to wait but we were able to sit right down which was nice. read more

Historically, this is an excellent breakfast place. I say "historically," since we just visited it today & the food wasn't so good. The Powerhouse Eggs - my favorite item - were kind of flat, salty, but tasteless. I think they didn't put enough of the special ingredient - nutritional yeast - in it, and the home fries were overpowered by garlic salt. The biscuits were still good though. Plus, something I ate there made me sick. That's the 2nd time it's happened, but that's over an 8 year period. So I figure they may have a new line cook in the kitchen. We'll still go back. Hopefully this is just a glitch and not the beginning of a downslide. read more

Holly cow bells Batman. What a great little place. So there is a just something special about cooking with a Cajun influence. God loves a good Coon Ass cook. And no, that was not a degrading remark. So what did Big Bob eat. A little bit of everything. 1) Corned Beef hash. This is not typical RI Hash, this is just a bit different. So if you love CB-Hash, go in with an open mind and you will be rewarded. 2) Biscuit . I know, 'it is just a biscuit' you are saying to yourself. Nope. I love being in RI and NE, but biscuits are not in your culinary wheelhouse. This one on the other hand is. And on Sundays, they do Biscuits and Gravy. The clouds part and the angels sing. 3) Grits. In the case Cheese and Jalapeno grits. Finally. And no, grits are not in the New England wheelhouse either. These were fantastic. So what I am saying here is if you are looking to do something different and put a little south in your mouth as Paula would say, you should head on over. I also say Jambalaya as well as etouffee. I believe it was crab etouffee and not crawfish etouffee, which I would prefer. Anyway, I believe this is going to require several trips. Oh, might I add that the service was fantastic. The place was well laid out. It is in the back of a strip mall, but that is okay. read more

Ok, folks. Run to Bluebird Cafe in Wakefield. The next time you're in the mood for a deliciously filling, freshly made to order breakfast, brunch, or even lunch, check out this cute little diner-like cafe. It has the sweetest employees and the place is full of regulars and locals, a good sign of quality. The cafe has a throw-back charm about it. It reminded me of an old breakfast place I used to go to as a child. A bit of nostalgia helps welcome a nice warm meal. To the meal... I ordered a small Verduras Rancheras, which was plentiful even as a small. It was so pleasantly filling, and I was happy to find a well made and unique breakfast option. They have a wide range of foods to choose from with styles ranging in Cajun, Creole, Mexican, Southwestern, Caribbean and highlighted as a New Orleans-style neighborhood cafe. Very, very cool to find near downtown Wakefield. The Verduras Rancheras had a nice assortment of freshly cut green peppers, mushrooms, spices galore, black beans and sauce, and a nice salsa to top the plate off. This was all simmering on a fresh and soft corn tortilla, which added to the texture and flavor. I will definitely be returning to try other items, but I know this will be a plentiful repeat order. I only took a star away because I also ordered the home fries and bacon. It's a staple and anytime I go to a new breakfast place, I like to test out those two foods. I wasn't blown away, they were standard, but too greasy for my liking. The potatoes were a tad undercooked, as well. Yet, everything was fresh and I can tell this place takes great pride in their food, as they should. Overall, Bluebird Cafe was a great experience and you know it's a winner when you are still craving your meal the same day! The Verduras Rancheras left me wanting more. Well done, Bluebird Cafe! read more

This is a little old school type family restaurant in a strip mall. Good food, nice staff, fast service. Got corned beef hash, grits, a biscuit, eggs, bacon, OJ, and a small order of huevos rancheros. First, grits are kinda bland and icky in general I think. I had them before elsewhere and thought maybe I had a bad experience. Nope I think that is just how they taste. Don't do it. Coffee was weak and not impressive. Everything else was good. They have eco friendly takeout containers! read more

While the location in a strip mall is unassuming, this cozy spot for breakfast and lunch is worth seeking out. Our group had breakfast and I wish I had followed other Yelp reviewers' advice and gotten the huevos rancheros. It looked great and from the bite I had, was delicious. The menu states that the tortillas come from the area's only tortillaria, and they also emphasized the other steps taken to keep their food fresh and local. I had the blueberry pancakes, which actually had the blueberries on top of them instead of in them, but they tasted good. The group raved about the breakfast potatoes and I appreciated that they also offered iced coffee in addition to hot coffee. Good service and pleasant enough surroundings. read more

This is food worth going out of your way for. No, really. Wonderful service, lovely choices, totally consistent all year long. We've been coming here for years and just never have a bad bite. Well done, Bluebird! read more
