    This place is incredible. And Kim the owner was gracious enough to give us a complete overview of the history of the diner. Food was awesome

    The Black Bird Restaurant - Two Birds Platter

    We were so excited to try this while passing through. The "church basement" vibe didn't bother us…read moreat all, but we were still disappointed. I heard the country boy was really good. Chicken and waffles were good, but struggled to eat it without a knife. The weathervane was mediocre at best. Potatoes were sad and mushy on both plates. Overall the service was really what was lacking. She was friendly, took our order and never came back. No drink refills, no check. We sat there long enough to one by one use the restroom and decided we must pay at the counter. We did not feel like the whole food + experience equated to a great value for the money.

South Street, Wilmington, Ohio (937) 366-6220 Website: https://theblackbirdwilmington.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61577050103184 0600 - 3pm - Daily I'm always on the hunt for locally owned and operated places to support -- mostly because chain restaurants make me feel like I'm eating the same corporate dream in every town. #OverPricedUnderRated A longtime friend and BaldWhiteGuy supporter, Chris Georges, suggested the Black Bird. So I did what any responsible, waffle-motivated adult would do: I Googled it, packed the princess (my child, not royalty), and drove 27 minutes into the wilds of Wilmington for breakfast. I've got a long, complicated love affair with Wilmington -- R&L trucking memories, pay-lake fishing , horse shows, drive-in dates with a adorable dimpled accomplice, and pizza from a hole-in-the-wall called Generations Pizzeria, back before they went all boogie and built a real restaurant. #LongTimeSupporter. Somehow, The Black Bird flew under my radar. July 9, 2025, The new kid on the block, but already serving up breakfast like it's been doing it for decades. We rolled in on a day when Mother Nature decided to audition for a snow catastrophe. School canceled, and me coming off a 20-call shift with a five-hour fire standby -- so yes, I was hangry and exhausted. #ShowMeCoffeeandBacon The Black Bird's parking lot had room, the staff waved us in, and we were told to sit wherever we liked. I considered the window seat for the ambiance, then remembered the car thermometer read "well below zero" and chose survival over Instagram lighting. Good call -- the corner booth on the opposite side of the restaurant was cold, the window seats were colder, I'm sure. Service was prompt. Water for the princess, black coffee and water for me -- because coffee is a personality trait. The menu is a delightful problem: too many good choices. I solved this like a rational adult by ordering the dish that crams the most breakfast joy onto one plate. #MostImportantMeal #HealthyBoy I ordered the Two Birds Platter - 2 eggs over-easy, bacon, a waffle, and wheat toast. * Eggs: Perfectly cooked. Not a puddle of yolk, not a hockey puck. Just right. Hats off to the chef. * Bacon: I'm normally a "slightly underdone, floppy bacon" guy, but this was crispy in the best way -- not burnt, just proud. Definitely sandwich-worthy. #maybenexttime * Wheat Toast: Salted butter, golden brown, the kind of toast that makes you consider buying a toaster with feelings. * Waffle: The reason I drove 27 minutes. Warm, slightly sugary crunch on the outside, fluffy inside. If waffles had fan clubs, this one would be president. The Two Birds Platter was delicious and filling. Highly recommended. The princess went with French toast plus a side of bacon. Three thick slices of Texas-toast-style bread, perfectly cooked, topped with a berry compote that tasted like summer and probably a small sin against your A1C. #Diabetes #WilfordBrimley She couldn't finish it (too much food? impossible), so I heroically sampled. Verdict: wonderful. Staff kept my coffee above the half-cup threshold -- a service-level I judge all restaurants by. If your coffee dips below half, you're playing with my emotions (and your tip). Let's talk price * Two Birds Platter -- $11.00 -- Incredible value. Plenty of food. I left full and happy. * French Toast -- $11.00 -- Fair and generous portions * Side of Bacon -- $4.00 -- Two slices for four bucks? Either that pig was raised on caviar or someone's tipping the bacon farmer. Pricey, but tasty. * Coffee -- $3.00 -- Hot, and delicious. Kept my cup full and offered a to go cup (great touch). They asked small or big. I said big. They delivered a cup that could power a small village. It was Huge. Worth every penny. If you follow the BaldWhiteGuy, you know I have reservations about the prices of beverages at restaurants, but his was well worth the $3. May be drinking this cup till noon! #HowManyTimeCanYouRewarm Overall: fair prices, solid portions, and service that earned a generous tip. Final Review 4 out of 5 Bald Heads -- ‍‍‍‍ Positives * Locally owned and operated -- support your neighbors, not a corporate overlord. #ShopLocal * Great service -- attentive without hovering. * Plenty of food -- bring an appetite or a friend with a trunk. * Fair prices -- especially for the main plates. * Huge to-go coffee -- caffeine for days. Negatives * Bacon price -- delicious, but my wallet cried a little. * Thermostat -- it was cold enough to make my bald head regret life choices. Turn up the heat, Black Bird. #DontBeCheap If you're in Wilmington and you like breakfast, brunch, or lunch that treats you like a person and not a number, fly into The Black Bird. Tell them BaldWhiteGuy sent you, and tell the waffle I'll be back -- probably sooner than my cholesterol would advise.

    ‍Bald White Guy Reviews‍…read morehttps://www.facebook.com/BaldWhiteGuyReviews/ The Farmers Table 26 E. Main Street, Mt. Sterling, OH Mon-Sat | 7am-11am (937) 269-1911 Inside the Sterling Bluegrass Jamboree FIRST IMPRESSIONS: 5‍‍‍‍‍ - 5 of 5 If Cracker Barrel and a banjo had a baby, it'd be The Farmers' Table. You walk in through the main entrance of the Sterling Bluegrass Jamboree building (yes, that's a real thing ), and boom--you're in a dining room that doubles as a music hall. Tables, and the unmistakable scent of sizzling bacon. Bonus points for the "Text Your Order" feature --I sent a message, got a cheerful reply, a photo of my ticket, and an ETA. Ms. Celina greeted me with a smile, my food was boxed and bagged, and the whole place was cleaner than a bald head after a fresh polish. Would they let me sing on stage while waiting for my omelet? Probably not. But a guy can dream. THE FOOD: 3‍‍‍ - 3 of 5 I opted for the 3-egg omelet, which included ham, mushrooms, cheese, and wheat toast. Solid. Eggs were cooked perfectly, and the fillings were generous. However, it needed a little salt and pepper to bring it to life. #NoSeasoning #OmeletNeedsAMicDrop ‍ SERVICE & STAFF: 5‍‍‍‍‍ - 5 of 5 Ms. Celina runs the show like a breakfast ninja. Friendly, fast, and full of charm. I suspect she could whip up pancakes and solve a crossword at the same time. VALUE & PRICING: 3‍‍‍ - 3 of 5 $12 for an omelet? That's a bit rich for my bald wallet. I could make the same thing at home for half the price... but then I'd have to do dishes. CLEANLINESS: 5‍‍‍‍‍ - 5 of 5 Spotless. Like a freshly waxed dome. PARKING: 4‍‍‍‍ - 4 of 5 Street parking is available. There might be a lot out back, but I didn't go exploring. I was on a mission for eggs, not asphalt. ‍ HANDICAP ACCESSIBILITY: 2‍‍ - 2 of 5 Small step at the entrance. Not ideal. Use caution when entering or exiting--especially if you've had a few too many cups of coffee. ‍ SOCIAL MEDIA: 3‍‍‍ - 3 of 5 - Strong Facebook Presence. Makes frequent posts, and the page has all the required contact information. Stop by the Farmers Table page and hit "Like". Why you're at it, take a look at the Sterling Bluegrass Jamboree page as well. You may be a Bluegrass Fan and just didn't know it. COMMUNITY VIBES: When Ben & Joy's closed, Mt. Sterling's breakfast brain trust lost its HQ. The Farmers' Table has stepped up as the new morning meeting spot for farmers, business owners, and individuals working to solve the world's problems over coffee. ‍ It was good to see some familiar faces. OVERALL BALD HEAD RATING: 4‍‍‍‍ - 4 out of 5 ‍ A charming breakfast spot with heart, hustle, and hash browns. Worth a visit if you're in town, at Deer Creek, or just craving a side of community with your eggs. SUPPORT LOCAL! Tag your breakfast crew, share your favorite dish, and let's keep The Farmers' Table cookin'! And finally, why did the Farmer's Table move into the Sterling Bluegrass Jamboree Building???? Because even the mashed potatoes wanted to jam with the gravy! #dadjokes #BaldWhiteGuyReviews #BreakfastWithBanter #MtSterlingEats #SupportLocal #OmeletOpinions #BluegrassAndBacon #CelinaForMayor #BaldApproved
