Mama had the grilled cheese, which was melty and gooey and perfect. We all got the coleslaw as a side. The portion is smallish, but the slaw is fresh and crisp and features dried cranberries, maybe? Really nice. I'd like to order more next time, if I can. My husband's steak sandwich was... small, too salty, and kind of "meh" - but he did eat it all! Adorable décor, super friendly service. Price is right too. Despite a miss on one sandwich, I still recommend this place.

The menu was ample, with options for milk being available. They have turned what was a vacant clothing store into a welcoming, beautiful space to enjoy your freshly made beverage. They have a map on which, if you're visiting, can put a pin on the map from where you are visiting. I was the first pin from Palm Springs...YAY. Misty, the owner, was also welcoming and she, one of her staff and I had a lovely conversation. If you happen to pass through or visit Oelwein, visit Blackbird Coffeehouse. You can thank me later.

I had the Rueben. It was good with Thousand Island dressing served on the side. Crinkle cut fries were OK. Others had the Club Croissant (which was served on croissant bread instead of a traditional French croissant) and the burger. Burger looked pretty pedestrian but the diner in question enjoyed it. She said the coleslaw was "nothing to write home about" but that the cowboy beans were really good. Our waitress and the rest of the staff were amazing. I loved that they had jello as a side dish. The neighboring table got it and the day's variety was blue! :) It came with a dollop of whipped cream and it made me want to order it. Truly old school feel and the walls are lined with antiques and vintage senior photo panels from the local high school.
