I was pessimistic about the food options for vegetarian/vegan diets on a sparsely populated peninsula known for seafood, but this place delivered. It was an order at the counter setup, and included a small menu of prepared foods, a robust baked goods spread, and beverages aplenty. I didn't really need a donut, but their Mexican chocolate donut was unbelievably good, delivering pure chocolate notes without some of the oily off tastes that low quality donuts bring, and a tantalizing mix of sugar and spice on top. It was a great combination with a plain matcha; wacky matcha flavors are all the rage, but straight matcha (and oat milk) side by side with a dynamic sweet flavor is a good way of getting to the same gustatory pleasure. A salad had some nice thinly shaved vegetables and quite a mix of greens. I might like to see them get deeper into the vegan protein game with some tofu or other bean-based option, but the variety of delicious things they did had would be enough to get me to come back. read more

DELICIOUS & HEALTHY FOOD FOR: VEGETARIANS, VEGANS, CARNIVORES! OLD & YOUNG LOVE IT! When I come back to the CAPE the first restaurant I go to is SUNBIRD because they always have new twists and local ingredients for old FAVORITES. There are always some new faces at the front counters but each year they are younger and sweeter, more intelligent, and well informed about the ingredients of each menu item. The kitchen is attentive to every little nuance making foods healthy but sumptuous and tasteful. I was starved when I arrived on a redeye from LA and I ordered the Kimchi breakfast tacos and the quinoa porridge. The Kimchi spiced up the corn tortillas, egg and cheese with savory and tangy fermented cabbage. The porridge was "heartwarming" quinoa steamed in coconut milk and topped with berries, dried apricots. If you want to save time you can call in your order or book on-line. EATING WITH YOUR FAMILY? SUNBIRD will prove "yummy" and "healthy !!!!! I KEEP COMING BACK BECAUSE ITS GOOD FOR ME! read more

Stopped by for a quick breakfast and was definitely satisfied. This spot seems pretty popular, as the inside was really busy, so plan to order ahead if you want faster service. I enjoyed my iced latte that I got, but I'm not too picky with my coffee. The sandwich had a nice runny egg, thick bacon that was well-seasoned, and toasty, buttery bread. I put the mayo on the side, which I think was a mistake, because it was a little dry (but that's my fault). Overall, yummy meal! read more

I could eat here every day on vacation for breakfast! Food and drinks are delicious. I wish I had one in my hometown! read more

Ugh! I forgot how much I hate this place and accidentally went back. They have a strange amount of rules for a coffee shop. Not a chill spot at all. No clue why they have so many positive reviews. Not a good cape cod spot at all. Coffee is pretty meh and no non fat milk options. People who work there think they are better than you so didn't love that either lol. Really really wish it was better. read more

i may have written a review already but we went here again today and compared to other breakfast places around the eastham orleans area this place is soooo great. There's a more mature woman with very short hair who looks like she either owns or manages the place and the young people she oversees are exceptional. i am so impressed by the the way its run and the amazingly good coffee and food. i had to buy lots of swag there. The sunbird sandwich and taco is amazingly good, the fingerling potatoes to die for and people who eat at the counter are so friendly. maybe we will go there before we leave tomorrow. a wonderful memorable part of our stay here read more

LOVE Sunbird! My favorite coffee shop on the cape! Total hipster vibe which I love. This morning I stopped in for a single origin Ethiopian coffee that was floral and mildly acidic. Fresh, not over roasted, and juicy. Very nice compliment to my morning. This afternoon I came back for more and got a cold brew, which was smooth and balanced, and didn't have the bitterness that some cold brews get from over extraction. For food I got the steak and egg banh mi, which was an absolutely perfect post-workout snack. Hearty and filling but not oversized. I would have liked some more pickled veg on the sandwich to balance it out more, but I load all my sandwiches with pickles, so I might be biased! The aesthetic is very cool, and personally I love their merch. It's very cool retro-80's, and reminds me a bit of the ads for Honda motorcycles and Kodak cameras I saw growing up. I dig it, and bought a beach towel that I love. And lastly, my favorite thing on the menu: Bird Turds!! These little sweets are balls of dates, nuts, puffed rice, and candied ginger, rolled in toasted coconut. They are all natural and positively ADDICTIVE. I got myself a bag of 10 (for ¢85 a piece!) and have been snacking on them all week. My only complaint is that the food can sometimes take a long time to make. It's usually well worth it, but if you need something quick you'll have to preorder. Definitely stop into Sunbird if you're ever in Orleans! You'll read more

What a cool spot. It's a little confusing initially when you walk in, can be overwhelming. It was so busy so I'm sure that added to it. You place your order in one line, pick up your drinks at another counter and your food at some shelving to the right. Service was quick, food was fantastic. Very eco-friendly place, we were able to sit inside. It was kind of fun finding the little birds all over the place. Great feel to the place. read more

Breakfast tacos without much nonsense and good latte. Only whole milk or alternatives was an interesting twist. Pastries looked amazing and large. Friendly service and excellent space (well designed menu, high ceilings, clean, organized and well merchandised and decorated) Impressed ! read more

Great spot for a boutique breakfast. Not your typical sit down and order hash place. Service, food and ambiance was great. read more

We came here to pick up quick coffees to go twice. The ambiance is vibing and the coffee menu has great variety. I ordered a cortado with oat milk to go and it was nice and strong, just how I like it. I also got a cornbread rhubarb muffin which was interesting. I wouldn't order it again because it wasn't my cup of tea, but it was certainly creative and stuffed with cooked rhubarb. The muffin also had a syrup coating it that gave off a honey sweetness. Staff is very friendly and your order comes out fast fast! If I am ever in the Orleans area again, I will be sure to revisit. read more

Just the kind of coffee shop I enjoy. Friendly staff, quick service, great tasting coffee and food. Will definitely be returning during our stay! read more

Breakfast food is great, especially their egg, lettuce and bacon sandwich. Coffee is alright, nothing too special. Service was also sort of mediocre. The inside of the shop is small, and there's really not enough room to get around, especially since there are only a few tables in the place. There are certainly better coffee shops in the area to try. read more

Yes , this is the place you want to go around here. Superior atmosphere, delicious food. Pricey because it's the cape and not junk food, but that's the price of entry these days I guess . Bird turds they offer are delicious. read more

The best breakfast place - hands down. Great coffee, pleasant service & a vibrant atmosphere

Meh. Mid food, took forever for the food, not worth the long wait. It was slammed and obviously it's a popular place but I've had better.

As if I needed another cute coffee shop on the Cape! Sunbird however blows the breakfast game out of the water. Multiple people suggested checking this place out and I'm glad I did. I got the breakfast sandwich, which was delicious. Thick cut bacon, super soft and flavorful bread and amazing citrus mayo. I would definitely order it again. We also shared a few pastries, which were good. The chocolate croissant was our favorite! read more

Nice little place. Found through yelp The logo looks like some surf shop clothing store but have nice food and great baked goods. Service was quick and great seating area as well. We ordered breakfast sandwiches and chicken salad sandwich. Both were great. Breakfast sandwich was so good. Great bread perfect egg bacon and nice sauce. Chicken salad was on the sweeter side. Also had blueberry mint jalapeno soda. Interesting flavor. Little too sweet for me but was good. Corn muffin was great. Much better than other place i had and cheaper too. Full of berries and crumbling corn texture. Will definitely visit again. read more

Easily the best chai latte on Cape. They use Mem Tea and the spice and milk ratio to tea is perfect. They have divine treats. Breakfast items are highly focused on fried eggs and pork. I am not a fan of either so choices are limited. The breakfast porridge is lovely. I recommend sharing. It is a chill place to sit and enjoy quiet convo. A lovely crew of staff. Note to Chef: please consider less pork fried egg options for breakfast read more

This place has a FANTASTIC menu. Kimchi eg sandwich. YES!! Delicious! Baked goods...DELICIOUS! Everything very good here. They get busy so the service can be a bit slower than you want but worth the wait. Great coffee as well. read more

Donuts made with Taza dark chocolate - absolutely incredible. The rest of the menu is pretty darn good as well.

Found this place on our way to Provincetown and it's an easy location to drop in, grab a quick bite, and continue on our road trip. We had the Bird Breakfast Sandwich and it was ginormous. It was packed with lots protein and was very filling! I also ordered the Sunbird Burger and was very disappointed. The sandwich was yummy except that it sat in a pool of the burger juices. The bottom bun soaked up the juices and was mushy and the texture just made me gag and I couldn't finish it. The guy next to me also ordered the burger and he was struggling to eat it as well. It was a mess and you had to go wash up after it. The fried potatoes were a great side to enjoy with the sandwiches. Great coffee, fresh baked breads, and treats! read more

Forgot to take photos but other posts show truth. Mexican chocolate donut. GET IT. Unique flavors. Moist. Delicious. Three of us shared one. Then you say "amen." The breakfast sandwich is delicious with egg and big slab bacon. He ate all his. My daughter and I shared one. Roll is perfect and different. Makes the morning sandwich unique. Breakfast tacos. Two per order. More nicely cooked fried eggs and bacon on corn tortillas. He had one later as a part of lunch. She and I split one right away. Yum. Sticky bun? Very good too. I ate more than I typically eat. We did takeout. Place was busy cause food is good. Repeat: get Mexican chocolate donut. A must. Coffees good too. Sunbird is awesome. read more

Ode to the Bird Breakfast Sandwich! The ingredients themselves are standard--bread, a fried farm egg, bacon, mayo, and greens--but the result goes beyond good to sublime. The bread is ciabatta and is the perfect combo of crisped outside and soft enough inside to give it body, but not so chewy that you have to work at it. You can get your egg over hard or easy, which is the way I recommend it, to get some nice warm, drippy yolk. Two thick pieces of delicious smoky bacon, some greens and scallions, and a mayo punched up with a citrus hit. Seriously, perfection! This is a breakfast sandwich elevated (you could have it for any meal of the day, honestly). There were other fresh and tasty menu items too, but for the Bird Sandwich alone, I'll be sure to stop by any time I'm on the Cape. read more

The food was amazing, casual atmosphere, ambiance- family friendly. Kim-cheese tacos were great! The cheese burgers were very good too. read more

Wow-new fav breakfast place. Recommend ordering and pick up to avoid the crowds. The Bird Breakfast Sammie is delicious. So fresh and so yummy. The tacos are outstanding. Order the extra salsa. Worth it! If you want something on the sweet side I would recommend the cinnamon rolls walnut glaze. It knocked me over and my husband would not give me another bite. 5 star jealously. read more

Finally tried the Mexican Chocolate donut 2 days after getting it & it was an instant must-have item! It was moist & not super sweet. The glazed donut is less stellar but is still good. The chocolate cookie has the soft texture that I prefer over crunchiness kind. read more

I've only been for breakfast a couple of times. Food is fresh, healthy and delicious!

Be warned: this is not a good place to bring your family. I will start by saying this: I like Sunbird -- it was one of my go-to places to take myself on a date. The food is thoughtful and wholesome; the vibe, bohemian and cool. I've been a customer for years (and remember when it used to be the Sparrow!) and have spent an embarrassing amount of money here. What makes them unfriendly to families, you ask? Their complete and arbitrary lack of flexibility. No toast after 11am. No kid-friendly options. No way to have your eggs scrambled. (I find this one particularly mind-blowing... you mean you don't have a fork and a bowl back there? You mean I can't pay you an extra dollar or two to scramble the egg for my 14 month old? What?) TL;DR: Their approach to people is cold and they prioritize their menu over their customers. There are no exceptions (not even for local regulars!). For single people, it may be be fine. For families who need more support, flexibility, and warmth, there are plenty of other options in Orleans. read more

Honestly it's really just like whatever. Expensive. Like really light wallet after. And I have a phat wallet too. Bye read more

Sunbird has great coffee and breakfast sandwiches. I highly recommend stopping here to jump-start your day.

Delicious! I wanted something different for my take out breakfast while on the Cape. Sunbird definitely had my back in this aspect! I decided to try egg tacos! I was so excited to try this amazing take on breakfast food! It was basically fried eggs style and they threw this yummy sauce on their breakfast potatoes as well! It was sooo delish and I would totally order from them again in the future! I highly recommend!! read more

It's noon on a rainy winter Saturday, and you've got a picky eater four year old who wants toast? I don't think so, the kitchen couldn't possibly fill this request seeing as toast isn't offered after 11am. Dear person working the register yesterday, thank you for making my day just that extra bit more difficult. read more

Good but inconsistent and menu gets boring One day excellent focaccia with different toppings- delicious pesto, zucchini in summer, mushrooms, etc. But go in again and focaccia is plain and tastes stale. Soup specials are homemade and delicious: parsnip with apple, minestrone. Pastries need improvement. Seems they take pastries from Pain D'Avignon and then add drizzles of chocolate. Not a great croissant experience. Wish they made their own. They usually have a corn muffin. Would like to see mor inventive, fresh and varied options. The doughnuts are good, Mexican chocolate- yum! Coffee is good but the baristas can be friendly or grumpy. While I believe in trans rights, not sure a trans right tshirt with knives pictured on it (what?!) or a Don't Suck tshirt is appropriate. My 6 year old is an early reader and I heard Don't Suck for the rest of the day after going in there. read more

Breakfast tacos were good. Cornbread muffin was better. The tacos were good but we're a little dry so definitely take their refomndatiln of adding pickles and sauce. Wish it had been included. They had slightly off hours so be aware but will definitely come back. read more

Great coffee and ambiance. Grilled cheese was somehow both high quality AND kid friendly. We'll be back.

Very neat little restaurant that I was fortunate to find in Orleans while visiting. I had the bird breakfast sandwich with egg, bacon on grilled ciabatta. It was just awesome. Loved the service and the low key approach to the restaurant. It's always nice to be able to have a Mimosa with breakfast and as I was on vacation I indulged. Really neat place, highly recommended. read more
