Reviews for The Early Bird Eatery in South Bend, IN
Nice, clean brunch location downtown. The food had great flavor and presentation and came out quickly. The servers were very... friendly and helpful. We didn't have to wait too long to get in either. It was a great place to visit and I would highlyrecommend and will definitely return next time I'm back in town. Read more
This place is amazing ????. I suggest making a reservation because it's a very popular place to eat. Hands down everything that... I ate and drank was amazing. I can't say enough great things about this place. I will definitely be making this my breakfastspot when I come to town from now on. Read more
Expect a wait during the weekend. We did have a large party, so it's understandable. Staff was accommodating and the food was... great. Glassware and water pitchers at the table could have used another rinse. Read more
Had a nice Mother?s Day brunch here with my family! Cute place, I think they are remolding a bit because their is nothing on the... walls currently lol. Do yourself a favor and make a reservation, to avoid waiting. Lots of options breakfast and lunch, I hadthe Ribeye Sandwich and added a fried egg to make it a brunch item, HIGHLY recommend trying it and the Monte Cristo, the seversaid the kitchen staff thought it was a really idea! Coffee here is exceptional as well, they even make their own syrups. Nicelittle spot in downtown South Bend! Read more
The cappuccino was delicious, I ordered mine with vanilla and oatmilk. I would come back just for that alone. The pancakes were... filling and I could only eat half, took the rest to go. Quick seating and the staff was so attentive and super friendly. Thankyou for a great experience since we are new in town. I got the lemon blueberry pancakes without the blueberries (not a fan) andthe waitress brought me strawberry jam to try with them. It paired perfectly. I also ordered a side of eggs and potatoes.Definitely a lot of food for one person. Read more
I was here for a wedding this weekend with friends and family. Saw the reviews and was excited to have brunch here on a Saturday... morning. I made reservations for 6 via Yelp and we were seated as soon as we walked in the door. I wanted to try somethingdifferent so I got the eggs benedict crab cakes with loaded home fries. I also tried my friend's biscuits and gravy. In ourparty of 6, every meal was excellent. Our server was also fantastic. I would definitely come back if we are ever in the area. Read more
If you?re looking for some really good, hearty, high end food at a reasonable price, this is the place. We went three for brunch... and the Eggs Benedict were delicious. The decor has that southern feel to it and they even hit a gone run with the Cheesy Grits( which I hold to a very high standard). The staff was friendly and if I lived in South Bend I would go there every week. Read more
Completely delicious. I had the strawberry shortcake french toast. You probably don't need me to tell you that's amazing, but... it's even better than I imagined. My husband had the spicy pork sausage biscuits & gravy. I don't like biscuits & gravy as arule, but these were phenomenal. Not your typical flavorless country gravy. We split a side of bacon. It was cooked to theperfect crispness. You may want a reservation on a weekend morning. The place was PACKED and it looked like they barelysqueezed us in. But the service was still quick, the server was friendly, and it has a nice atmosphere. It is slightly loud forchatting. The restrooms are clean, but look like they're in a warehouse somewhere. It's honestly a bit jarring. But, thatbarely matters, because the beautiful human beings who chose the doors decided to make the locks the vacant/occupied sort. Noknocking & trying to decipher if someone has replied over the din of the dining room. So much less stressful. Read more
