A very rustic, beautiful, cottage, farmhouse patisserie vibe dessert cafe!! What a delicious find. I love the aesthetics and decor. Not to mention the freshly made desserts! I am a carrot cake fan among other flavors, but this carrot cake said award winning and I give that a 10!!! Come check them out when your near Alamo Heights! ChowChow Time! read more

Cute little shop. Friendly staff and a good selection of treats. There's no prices listed though and for good reason. A single 12 ounce can of Dr Pepper to go with my sandwich was $4 so be sure to ask before you order. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for the longest time, and we finally got to go this past weekend! Pros - super cute and inviting interior - tomato basil soup was so good, but not sure if it was worth the price ($5) because of the small portion size...I also wish they could at least include a small toast with it - service was quick - they use sonic ice for their drinks! - organized system of ordering and delivering food - love how the baked goods are displayed, it made me want to try everything! Cons - their menu was a little hard to read on the wall and the prices weren't posted anywhere - parking spaces are a bit limited - icing on the cupcakes were a bit too much. We ended up having to scrape off most of it - their drinks were tasty, but they put way too much ice...next time I'd ask for light on ice I'd love to come here again for a chill afternoon with a baked good and drink, but it isn't a place I'd go out of my way for. read more

Years after my first review I thought an update was needed. Oh how we love Bird! Two days ago we bought some sugar cookies and oatmeal cranberry cookies. They were so delicious and so beautiful!!! The birds would be lovely at a baby or bridal shower. The oatmeal are good for every meal! Please keep up the incredible food and service. Hopefully more people will give Bird a try and love it like we do! read more

This place was a cute gem located in the Alamo heights area. They had a variety of cupcakes to choose from and a selection of sandwiches, teas and coffee.

I've been to Bird Bakery a couple of times and was underwhelmed on each visit. The prices are particularly high and the baked goods are not up to the price. Recently I stopped in to buy a treat for my Valentine, but didn't see prices. I picked up a cute cardboard egg-crate of 6 tiny petit fours and was shocked when charged $18! At $1.50 per bite they should have been the best thing I ever tasted, they weren't. read more

Well, as a gluten intolerant person, I don't get to walk into just any old bakery and order. Sigh. So, when I can happily skip into a bakery and know they will have at least a couple of gluten free items to choose from, well, I'm happy. They usually have a GF brownie, cookie, and a couple of muffins from which to choose. So, if you're gluten intolerant, skip on in, and enjoy! For the rest of you, check out the Banana Pudding, in single-portion containers. Family members get this and luv it. Also, their Pimiento Cheese packaged for take-home is absolutely worth your time & money. I have been known to go out of my way to stop by for it. Yes; mm-hmm. And, of course, once I'm there, I think to myself, "I can't just pick up gluten free baked goods anywhere ..." Oh, yeah. I should mention that they have delicious lunches, as well. Go early to avoid the inevitable rush. New? Just go in, go to the left, and get in line at the display counter. I just know they have that banana pudding and pimiento cheese there on purpose! Ha! read more

I brought my kids here, and we had a wonderful experience. Kids enjoyed the chocolate chip cookies, but I gave them a bite of my carrot cake cupcake, and we all agreed it was the best carrot cake we've ever had. They wrapped a red velvet cupcake up so sweetly for my daughter to give as a gift to her teacher. I'm still dreaming about that cupcake though... read more

Alamo heights prices. $25.00 for 2 mocha lattes + one average cookie. [ $23.00+$2.00 tip = $25.00 ] Allegedly offers gluten free, but they're always out, even if you call ahead to confirm, and they tell you they have it. 2 stars upgraded to 3, because of very nice ladies at front counter. read more

I can't believe I just stumbled upon this place recently, it was amazing! I stopped in for a coffee and to my surprise, the latte was large and reasonably priced, not one of those lattes your order where they only have one size and it's mini! It was also by far the best latte I've had in San Antonio. They have an array of treats, mostly cupcakes, but some cookies and tarts as well. It was too early in the day for me to order a cupcake, but they had samples out of a cookie that I tried and it was heavenly. The spot itself is also decorated nicely and the atmosphere is welcoming and relaxing. I will definitely be back to try those cupcakes soon! read more

This place is so quaint. I saw it on tv on some show and had to visit so I went Sunday after my curbside pick up to get something sweet. I chose the famous carrot cake cupcake, a red velvet cupcake and a chocolate chip cookie which was huge. I was afraid everything had been sitting a while (you never know) but last night I took a bite of the moistest carrot cupcake I have ever had, it was delicious and felt like it weighed 5 pounds by itself! This morning as I am WFH I tried the Cookie and it is so soft and fresh. Inside they offer lunch and breakfast, quiche and sandwiches as well as cakes and jams. I will definitely be going back here. Outside tables to sit as well! read more

Cutest little bakery in town with the cure for a sweet tooth! The interior of this place looks like it could be in a magazine - welcoming and homey. The counter is full of every kind of cupcake you can imagine! I ordered three mini cupcakes because I couldn't decide what flavor I wanted. For three, it was $5! A little pricey, but hey, they were good. I loved the lemon and carrot cupcakes the most. I appreciated how fresh they tasted and how they avoided the artificial taste that sometimes accompanied a lemon dessert. I could have had a million more, but I appreciated the size of these mini cupcakes because you don't overeat. I would love to come back here and taste some of their food! read more

The past four times I ate at Bird Bakery the bread on my sandwich was stale and dry, and my baked desserts were stale and dry. I ordered the tarragon chicken salad today, one of my standards there. In addition to being made with last week's stale bread, there was only a small amount of chicken salad --probably half of what they used to put on that sandwich. Add a bone dry piece of pound cake and a Topo Chicco, and my lunch came to $27. Not going back. read more

Bird Bakery is a delightful place to eat a sweet treat, enjoy lunch with a friend, or pick up a cake or cupcakes for a celebration. The cupcakes have a homemade taste with soft cake and rich buttercream frosting. My favorite flavor is yellow cake with chocolate frosting, but there are so many good ones. Each cupcake is finished with a swirl on top, and many have colorful or glittery sprinkles. For other sweets, the chocolate chip cookies, brownies, and mini pies are delicious. The cupcake flavors come as minis, too. You can custom order layer cakes, too. At lunch, a sandwich like the turkey with avocado makes for a satisfying meal, especially with a cool glass of tea. The bakery's interior is so appealing that every visit feels special. There are intimate small tables and big, friendly long tables. Wooden beams, pennants, tassels, cloche jars, modern calligraphy -- all these little touches add up to a magical place. read more

Ordered the strawberry cupcake and peach/blueberry cobbler. The cake was dry and crumbly and the frosting overly sweet. To have the cobbler heated took over ten minutes. The cobbler is a cake consistency. Had a great almond flavor with three slices of peach on the top. My husband enjoyed it. The ambiance of the bakery is painted like a trendy girls birthday party. Cute. read more

Excellent service. Exquisite attention to detail. I ordered thru Favor. I was impressed by packing and speed it arrived. This combo soup and sandwhich were tasty. The sandwhich was perfect on seeded bread. I've always wanted to try this place. Craving chicken salad this will be a go to. The tomato basil could have had a little more basil or something. All in all I'm super happy. read more

The sandwich's are pretty good and my little girl likes the cupcakes of course. My gripe with this place over the years is they consistently have the absolute rudest people working there. It's almost every time I order something the person has a terrible snarky attitude. I would understand if it was once or twice, the person could be having a bad day. I am talking about years of the worst service. I think I have finally learned my lesson. I'll spend my money somewhere else. If awful service doesn't bother you give this place a shot. read more

I would have rated 6 stars If there was an option. Best Staff Best Sandwich best Coffee around. overall Awesome Vibes

Bird Bakery offers a wide variety of sweet treats. I tried a lemon cupcake, a fudge brownie and a large chocolate chip cookie. Those 3 items cost me 10 bucks so Bird Bakery sits on the pricey end of San Antonio Bakerys. The decorate and location of Bird Bakery very nice welcoming. Overall I thought the treats we're good, but not anything incredible. The cupcake was my favorite of the 3 items I purchased. It was sweet, but not overly sweet. The lemon favor was tart but not over done. The brownie was a bit dry for my liking and not gooey enough. The cookie was between soft and crispy. I prefer softer more gooey cookies. I have heard nothing but good things about Bird Bakery. I will try it again in the future. read more

FYI: If I lived here, I'd be at Bird's at least 3-5 times per week on average-- and that's a fact! I'm smitten. Not only is the place absolutely friggin' adorable, the food is great, and the service and attention to detail is even greater. No pretentious or snooty attitudes, just a great product in a great atmosphere! I love it here, and I'm pretty sure that oatmeal cranberry walnut cookie is the best I've ever had... like, ever! My lunch was also spectacular! The California Turkey is the "kitties titties" and I'd highly recommend! All in all, "The Bird is the word!"

The cupcakes were SOOO dry and tasted awful. The frosting was way too sweet and just overall unpleasant. /:

Talk about precious! This bakery is adorbs on every level. The time and effort Elizabeth and the rest of the Bird Bakery family has taken in cultivating such a delightful patisserie is evident from the moment you step in. From the soft shades of Bird Blue decorating the shop to sundry of knick-knacks - whimsy and joy are abound! All of this occurs before you have even delved into the tasty baked delights! And those decadent delectations will not disappoint. I came yesterday with my "second" mom who was my Valentine. We arrived almost at 2pm and the Birds were busy fluttering! It was a mix of people placing Valentine's Day orders and those grabbing noshes. I chose the half chicken salad sandy with the tomato basil soup, and I asked them to surprise me with a cupcake. My second mama ordered the egg salad sandy. I'm quite picky about my chicken salad. I don't like it too chunky, it must be "wet" enough, tart enough, etc. I went out on a limb because I've heard such great things about Bird's Tarragon Chicken salad, and I was far from disappointed. The seeded bread was nice and thick. The tomato juicy, the Harvarti added the perfect compliment to that flavorful, well seasoned chicken salad. And loves, we need to discuss that tomato basil soup. To Die For! Don't forget to dunk a bit of your sandy on it for pure indulgence. I can still taste the creamy cup of heaven upon my lips. Second mama enjoyed her egg salad but did complain that the bread seemed not too fresh. I believe hers was on the wheat bread. Therefore, I would recommend getting the seeded bread, as mine was delish! So here's the super bummer. It wasn't Bird's fault but my own. I was so excited to have my cupcake later. It was also a birthday present to myself. However, I was in such bliss after my meal, that I went full space cadet and forgot my cupcake! THE HORROR!!!! I didn't realize it until I was home - about 20 min away. ::sigh:: I feel so brokenhearted because every single cupcake I have ever had there (and I've had them all, let me tell you) is impeccable. Ugh! I have no idea what they even surprised me with. I shall miss you cupcake, wherever you may be. Ok, I'm done whining. The moral of this story is don't leave your cupcake and Bird Bakery is the Hatori Hanzo of patisseries. 10pts if you get my reference. read more

Cute place, but neither the baked goods, nor the service, nor the cleanliness of the place impressed me. The service is aloof- like customers should feel blessed to be allowed in. Both of the plates our cupcakes and cheesecake were served on had multiple chips, which I'm pretty sure is still considered a health code violation. Our coffees took 10 minutes to arrive even though our server was only working on our order. I was done with my cupcake by the time the coffees arrived, only to have to send mine back because it was in a dirty cup. The mug I received my sea salt caramel latte in had pink lipstick on it. I'm wearing nude lipstick, so there's that. Above all else, we were all disappointed in the taste of our cupcakes. The icing was crusted over and my blue bird vanilla tasted more like a tough, sweet cornbread than a soft vanilla. There was a good amount of tunneling in the cake as well which was most likely the cause of the tough texture. My son said his Luscious Lemon had too little lemon flavor. My husband's Honey Cheesecake was missing the actual honey flavor as well. I'm glad we stopped in- if only to say we tried it- but none of us were impressed enough to return. read more

After constantly passing by this place we finally decided to give it a try. My partner got a chocolate chip cookie with walnuts (which was massive, btw) and I got a regular red velvet cupcake.

Let me start of with: EVERYTHING AT BIRD BAKERY IS AMAZING! Great location, and the cutest DECOR! Very nice cute farmhouse decor. They have pretty good parking spaces most of the time, but you might not find a parking spot right away on the weekends. The staff are also very very sweet and friendly. :) All their stuff is very very tasty as well. I pretty much like everything I've eaten here. Breakfast wise: - Their granola is fresh and crispy, and goes great with their yoghurt in the parfait. - Their Spinach Artichoke quiche is to die for. Crispy all around on the outside. Very ooey gooey cheesey on the inside. Just cant have enough. Definitely a must try from their breakfast menu selections - Most favorite morning bread would have to be the Nutella Bread. Just divine. - Favorite cupcake at the moment has got to be the Coffee: - They have really fluffy foamy latte! Also served in a very cute large cup. - They are also famous for their Sea Salt Caramel latte. I really like this as well but I've always asked for it to be less sweet. Pie and Cheesecake: - Amazing Pecan Pie! - Their honey goat cheese cheesecake is also amazing. Not too sweet, great consistency, soft and creamy. Sandwiches: - All their sandwiches are so good. My favorites would probably be their tuna sandwich and their cali sandwich. Just fresh, really good bread as well. Don't know what else to say. I love everything from Bird Bakery!

I had coffee and breakfast casserole. The breakfast casserole was salty and just too rich overall. The ambiance itself is nice but my biggest complaint was the customer service. The line and checkout process is chaotic. They forgot my casserole. Waited 30 minutes, finally went up question it and it was just sitting there in oven. It was almost rock hard by the time it was served. Couple of other people went up to ask about their forgotten food. The place wasn't that busy either. With so many options that have both great food and great service, this is a pass for me. read more
