    Screaming eagle sandwich
    Elsie P.

    The coffee is a solid 2/5 stars cause it came out of a jug, BUT THE BREAKFAST SANDWICHES ARE AMAZING! Hence the 4/5 rating. I had the screaming eagle and my friend had the refresher sandwiches, both of us on bagels. Fresh bagels, fresh veggies, overall delicious food.

    Best breakfast spot around. Yelp needs to update their menu. Highly recommend the mean mr mustard or screaming eagle. Also have the best blueberry muffins and pancakes.

    A charming coffee/tea/breakfast café, The Early Bird is a quaint, cozy place to meet with a friend to catch up on each others' lives, or just curl up with a good cup o' locally roasted Java and a good book. We were looking to get out of the cold and get some breakfast to energize ourselves in preparation for a busy day. I intended to get a side order of French toast, but ended up with a full order, consisting of 3 slices. It came with a side, so I requested fresh fruit. I really didn't want to load up on carbs, but when my order was served, I didnt regret it. I put my fresh fruit consisting of strawberries and bananas atop the French toast; it was so good, no syrup was necessary. The owner was very friendly and she chatted with my friend, both from local towns, and they had a good conversation. The selection of coffees were local roasters and brands. I forgot to snap a photo to show you, sorry. If I'm in the area again, I will definitely stop in again.

    What a hidden gem!! The Early Bird reminded me of places in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. All local food, all organic with a country feel. We were camping in the area and found this on the Yelp app. We came everyday. The Mexican Burritos are insane!! So so good!! We also loved the smoothies! Since we had our dog we took it out food to go but the staff insisted we sit outside and even set up a table for us. Highly recommend. One note: I think that South Berwick needs to do something with all the huge trucks that come barreling through the square. It is loud and takes away from the charm of the downtown. They are nonstop!
