    French Toast
    Jessica G.

    very lovely place! It was very busy when we went but they were quick to get us in. Food came out pretty fast and was so delicious! I got the sausage gravy over my omelette and it was the best omelette I've ever had. the staff was also super attentive and sweet. 10/10 breakfast restaurant

    Looking for something new for breakfast. Saw lots of good reviews so,we headed over. Pretty busy but we got a booth pretty quick. Cool local vibe. Looked over the menu and it all sounded good. I landed on the Country omelette with Sausage,green peppers,onions and cheddar cheese, toped with country sausage gravy Awesome omelette. Den grabbed the COUNTRY FRIED STEAK. Fried steak topped with country gravy. Delicious and cooked perfectly. Sold breakfast / brunch spot place was busy the whole time. Our sever was on pointe and took great care of us. Offered great suggestions as well.

    A couple times a month I get out for breakfast, and this is a favorite of mine. The Early Bird is a local spot, small inside with a few tables out front if you like dining outdoors. Not fancy food but very good food! A recent visit featured a Veggie Omelet and their "combo" breakfast where you make your choices from a variety of items. Being a casual spot there's a laid back comfortable vibe and the servers are as friendly as you'll find anywhere. And they are good at what they do. I can say I've never had a bad experience here.

    Cinnamon French Toast Combo

    We searched Yelp for a nice local place for breakfast and the great reviews for Early Bird were spot on. A well managed local eatery with locals and travelers dining. You know you found the right spot when the locals eat here too! We ate the cinnamon French toast and a two egg combo. Food was cooked to perfection. Including the bacon, which I always order crispy and rarely get perfect the cute little tea service with the biscuit was a nice touch. Our waitress Kristen was very attentive and friendly. Other weight staff would stop and make sure that we had plenty of coffee or if we needed refills.

    I happened upon this little breakfast place on my walk on Sunday. I was greeted by Lauren and she was so kind and friendly. My server, Owen, could not have been nicer and attentive in this little busy place. And sweet Jessica when I told her the ladies room was out of paper towels. She immediately took care of it. Now the food part! I had the "fit omelette" (no turkey) that was delicious and the home fries were crispy and have delicious seasoning. I treated myself to a slice of pumpkin cinnamon toast and black coffee. The early bird is clean with simple nice decor but I was told they're starting renovations 11/3/25. I sat inside but they do have outdoor seating. The all-around great experience will keep me coming back! Thank you and well done! Open mon-sun 7am-2:30pm

    Country Omelette (gravy on the side)

    Some of the food was delicious. Others just ok. Good: House Burger, omelettes, fruit side (not that melon junk, but good fruit), gravy Not as good: French toast (all I could taste was the butter), home fries Service was also ok. I ran out of water as no one checked on us regularly enough. So the best of this restaurant is 5 star. You just got to make sure you get the right stuff.

    While The Library is a few blocks away from the bustling downtown Pier and Beach tourist spots, its…read morelocation adjacent to Johns Hopkins makes it well worth the visit outside of the tourist zone. There's dedicated parking for the restaurant behind the building in the lot, plus metered street parking and garages within less than a block. The main entrance is on the side of the building, on 5th Street S just off 6th Avenue S. Outdoor seating is available, but I personally wouldn't choose it, sitting right next to a busy intersection with constant traffic and exhaust isn't my idea of enjoyable. That said, the interior ambiance alone is worth the visit. Inspired by the historic George Peabody Library and part of the Oxford Commons Hospitality group, the design is quirky, fun. The thoughtful mix of bookshelves, warm lighting, rich browns and deep blues, and the seamless blend of library, bar, and dining space creates a truly special atmosphere, especially if you love books. We visited as part of a large group for a special occasion dinner. They accommodated us on very short notice after our original plans changed due to possible rain and outside seating only at our first reservation, which was impressive. Our waitress was fantastic, she handled our entire table (and others) by herself with no buss person and still managed every order and individual request with genuine care and efficiency. I haven't tried breakfast, lunch, the morning coffee/pastry take-out window, or the bar yet, but the dinner experience was excellent. Fair warning: this is not a budget-friendly spot. If you're watching every dollar or might resent the food due to prices, it's probably not the place for you. It's ideal for special occasions or when you want to enjoy a meal without worrying about the cost, each dish/cocktail is in line with upscale dining in the area,it does add up quickly with drinks, apps, entrees, and sides, though I read they have happy hour. We ordered appetizers (shared), I also had the opportunity to sip a few cocktails (when offered), I also shared entrees, and sides with some of our group. Everything we tried was very good, there were not stand-outs, all was scrumptious, from the start of appetizers: the warm bread with its delicious butter spread, the roasted cauliflower, the spicy crispy shrimp, the Steak Frites, the perfectly cooked French fries, and the sautéed spinach, all of which I had a taste of personally. The portions looked modest on the plates but were surprisingly filling, many of us had leftovers to take home. We finished with the warm cookie and ice cream, which was hands-down amazing, especially with the perfect touch of flaky salt on top. The cocktails were strong and creative. My first choice (suggested by the waitress) wasn't quite to my taste, it was too tart and strong for me, but she immediately removed it from the bill and happily brought me something else I enjoyed much more. Overall, The Library delivers a memorable experience, amazing ambiance, a beautiful setting, attentive service, and excellent food. Next time I'm trying breakfast.

    Had the best time celebrating our anniversary weekend with brunch at The Library in St. Pete, and…read morethis place completely delivered. The vibe alone is worth the visit. The restaurant is uniquely decorated with floor-to-ceiling books and those old-world aristocratic portraits that make you feel like you've stepped into a quaint literary hideaway. We were seated in a cozy corner with high-backed cushioned chairs that felt like our own little private nook. Perfect for a special occasion that's kind of low key. Even though the restaurant was quite busy, the noise level was surprisingly low, which we really appreciated. It made it easy to relax and enjoy our time without feeling overwhelmed. Service was also great - attentive, friendly, and well-paced despite the crowd. Now, the menu... it was honestly hard to choose because so many items sounded amazing. We ended up ordering the crispy Brussels Sprouts and the warmed Burrata to start. The Brussels Sprouts were flavorful and enjoyable, though I personally would have loved just a bit more char on them for that extra depth. The burrata, on the other hand, was packed with flavor - especially if you're a fan of sun-dried tomatoes, this is definitely a must-try. The drinks were a standout, my lychee martini was light, smooth, and refreshing, while my husband's old fashioned was bold and perfectly crafted. He is quite the stickler for a good old fashioned. For our mains, my husband kept it classic with a bacon cheeseburger and fries, which he really enjoyed. It had that delicious smash burger style that hits the spot. I ordered the Chicken Paillard, and it was absolutely delicious--light, fresh, and full of flavor without feeling heavy. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and agreed that we'd definitely come back. There were still so many dishes we were tempted to try, and that's always a great sign. The Library is a unique and memorable spot that's perfect for brunch, date nights, or any special occasion. Give it a try!

The vibe was very cozy, clean, and hip, mixing modern design with rattan accents and a dash of greenery. It felt clean, cute, and really thoughtfully put together! Service was great. The staff was friendly, patient, and actually took time to explain popular items without rushing me at all. Loved that!! Parking is a bit limited. It is a small lot with a simple pull-in and back-out setup right onto the road, so it can feel tight. That said, I went around 11am and it worked out just fine with no hassle. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with bacon (plus $2 extra) and homemade lemon aioli on a toasted brioche bun and wow... the presentation was next level. I definitely took way too many photos before even touching it, no regrets! It tasted as good as it looks. Taste-wise, it was sweet, fresh, and super creamy with really nice texture. I also ordered the matcha latte, which was a bit disappointing. The ratio leaned heavily toward milk, making it very milky and lighter in matcha flavor than I expected. Wait time was quick, and pricing felt fair for the quality and experience. Overall, this is such a fun spot for brunch lovers, cute café dates, or anyone just wanting a sweet treat moment. I would 100% come back again!!

They had a fresh catch of grouper that day, so we decided to try the grouper nuggets. They're market price, but absolutely worth it. Even our friend preferred them over his fried fish. The batter was light, crispy, and delicious. Our kids ordered the bacon cheese fries and loved them. Just a heads-up: they use a nacho cheese sauce rather than shredded cheese, which some people may prefer to know ahead of time. Our friend from Massachusetts ordered the lobster sub (also market price) and said it was worth every penny. My husband and I split the grouper nuggets and the Philly cheesesteak. The bread is brought in from up north, and our server's recommendation did not disappoint. The sandwich was rich, flavorful, and one of the highlights of the meal. We also tried the onion rings. They use a beer batter, which wasn't our favorite, but that's more of a personal preference than a criticism. Overall, we'd definitely return if we're in the area again. The only downside was parking--$29.99 for two hours is pretty brutal. Thankfully, the food and atmosphere helped make up for it.
