Went to Bluebird last night for the first time. The "brick and timber" atmosphere was really nice. Service was very friendly, attentive and knowledgable. Beer selection was amazing. Food was very good. Greek Flatbread with sausage was quite tasty. Wings were average. Amazing brined pork. Best dish of the night. Endive and beet salads also very good.
All in all, a very nice neighboorhood spot with great beer, good service and tasty food. Great place to hang out and meet up with friends. The owner Tom even stopped by to say hello. I think he used to own Webster Wine Bar.
