Bluebird Kitchen - Pittsburgh

I’ve had my eye on this place for a while and heard great things. I ordered a plain bagel with cream cheese and a strawberry chocolate muffin. My total was about $7.75. My muffin was amazing and the bagel had a nice flavor but the consistency was definitely more of a pretzel than anything. The quality or portions could align a bit better for the price. The customer service was great as well. Kate took really good care of me and answered all my questions. I arrived between lunch and breakfast, approximately at 10:30am so the menu was a bit limited. There were tasty looking premade salads, soups, parfait bowls and pastries available. Not to mention organic cold pressed juices. I’d definitely come back for that muffin and to try some other items. This is more of a grab and go rather than sit down and enjoy kind of dining experience.

Today I found a caterpillar(? in the BOTTOM of my salad after I was 2/3s the way through. They refunded my money, but nothing can undo the damage of finding that in your salad. The attendant noted that “sometimes that happens with organic greens” which made it sound like this may not have been the first time. I always loved Bluebird before, but I can’t do it again after that. I feel physically sick from it still.

I can’t say enough good things about bluebird kitchen. I love eating here for the creative, heathy food options. I don’t get that sluggish lunch feeling when I have a meal from Bluebird, I feel good after eating here. This place definitely helps me get all of my fruits and veggies in for the day and the food always so fresh and delicious. Great price for real food.

The yogurt and granola was delicious! Yogurt so thick and creamy. It was also gluten free. I wish the sandwiches had gluten free bread options. Americano was great! My husband enjoyed the sweet potato and corned beef hash.

Great breakfast sandwiches and pastries. Excellent cup of coffee.
