Birdhouse Cafe — Restaurant in Mississippi

I really hoped this would be a full 5 star experience but the lack of staff and customer service needs to be noted. This is on you, management, not the poor solo employee struggling to stay pleasant and keep up with the customer volume.

When we arrived, we knew to expect it was a cafe inside a furniture store so we quickly navigated to the cafe. We waited about 10 minutes before I started asking other customers if I was in the right place because no one had acknowledged us. The kind group if ladies sitting closes to the table relayed we were in the correct place and the current staff member informed them he was working solo and it would take him about 20 min to get to them because he was working alone. At one point a woman walked by who appeared to be working. I made eye contact with her and smiled. She didn't acknowledge me and kept walking.

PRIMARY FRUSTRATION: Someone just say, “sorry we are swamped, I see y’all & I will get to y’all when I can.”

FOOD: Hands down, delicious! We ordered the mexican wrestler salad/chicken, a youngster smoothie and heavy T sandwich, morning pesto toast, and a chocolate protein cup. All items were fresh, flavorful...

I wanted to take a moment to share some valuable information about a hidden gem in the Oak Grove/Hattiesburg area—the Birdhouse Cafe. I believe it’s important to highlight their exceptional approach to accommodating gluten-free diets and I can't thank them enough because I have celiac disease. I've never felt safer eating out than I have here with them!

What truly stands out about the Birdhouse Cafe is their thorough knowledge and genuine friendliness when it comes to food sensitivities. They take gluten-free living seriously; their commitment is evident in the use of separate preparation areas, ensuring a safe environment for those with dietary restrictions. The open kitchen concept not only allows patrons to see the care and attention that goes into their meals but also fosters trust and transparency.

If you’re looking for a place where you can enjoy delicious food without the worry of gluten cross-contamination, I wholeheartedly recommend the Birdhouse Cafe. Their dedication to providing safe dining options makes them a top choice...

Overall was an odd experience. It is an odd interior design store with a cafe inside? And looks nothing like the pictures on Instagram. The most disappointing thing was paying 9$ for a smoothie that tasted like it was made from rotten fruit and protein powder from Sam’s Club. Which is a lot of money for a smoothie that is not that great. I could have went to Main Squeeze by USM to have a much higher quality experience for the same price. Don’t get me wrong, would love to support a local business, especially a local business with healthy alternatives. However, it stinks when you are overcharged for something that is sub par. Main Squeeze does the same thing for the same price at a much better quality and I will be going there for all of my smoothie and smoothie bowl needs. It also does not seem fair to have something listed as a latte when it is just cold brew and milk. That is just false advertising. I cannot attest to the rest of the menu but would rather not try it because there are other places that...
