The cherry spritz, mama I dream of it still . My only qualm is that I am a stickler for good glassware ~ I would like to see the beverages with a stem. And based on the aesthetic I know the owner could find some classic glassware. We need more places like this in GR, and I need more POH in my LIFE.

Two friends who spent over a decade in Washington, D.C., a city with excellent cocktail bars,…read morerecommended this spot. It didn't disappoint. Popping in on the Friday after Thanksgiving with a friend around 9:30pm, here's my experience. 1) Cocktails: Their menu is large and includes cocktails, wine, beer, non-alcoholic drinks, and small bites. My friend ordered a seasonal cocktail and I started with the Passion Spritz, which was my favorite with passion fruit and guava. For my second drink, I ordered the French 75, which was average. It has good taste, but it came with a large ice cube. The cocktail was more watered down than ones I've had chilled v. with an ice cube. 2) Service: It was attentive and friendly. Throughout our stay, the servers checked in with us at appropriate times. All were approachable. 3) Space: It's simple yet chic with plenty of places to sit at the bar, at tables, and on couches. If you want a great place to catch up with friends, go here!

My husband wanted me to purchase one of the more expensive pre-made bouquets. I told him not a good idea since many of the vases had brown slimy water, so I wasn't confident it would last. I selected a cheaper bouquet that was seemed ok. But as you can see from the photo (taken the NEXT day, all the roses are quickly dying off). Overall it felt like an expensive evening to not enjoy most of our wine and have a wilted bouquet that didn't last a full day.

I remember hating the little digestive drink that I got but they warned me and I just had to try it bcs it was pretty cheap lol. It was shockingly bitter but i'm glad I tried it especially for the price. I wanna say it was like $3? Overall good vibe and I need to go back when they open the garage door. I'm going back for the vibes and flower bouquets not necessarily for more wine but if you're a wine head you need to come check them out!!

Great place to just sit at the bar and chill out, have a drink or 2, and meet people! When I was there, they had mulled wine going which was a fun surprise and the perfect autumn drink.

I've gone about 5 times now, all on different ocassions and have tried many of their wines but my favorite drink is their extra dirty martini. They have some lite bites that are yummy as well.

The interior is stunning and it feels like a big city cocktail bar right in the heart of Ada!

The service was a tiny bit slow but we were not in a time crunch so it wasn't really a big deal. I had a glass of wine and my friend and I split an appetizer, a charcuterie board, and the Parisian sandwich. Their menu is seasonal but I think the sandwiches stay pretty consistently. Everything was really good and high quality. I especially loved the sandwich. Truly similar to the same sandwiches you can get everywhere in Paris. The charcuterie board was yummy with unique choices! Everything paired pretty well. I would definitely come back here to try more menu options and wine :)

I'm a big Squibb fan and it's great to see them utilizing this space to serve drinks, coffee, and small plates, as well as cheese to go and other fun items for sale in their market. It's a one stop shop for a perfect picnic! Nate and I stopped by on their first day open and ordered the Parisian, heirloom tomato and burrata, and the mini charcuterie board. If you liked Aperitivo, you'll love Sav Sav. Everything we ate was delicious, but we both loved the tomato and burrata small plate the most. It was bursting with flavor and was nicely balanced between savory and sweet. I also really loved the Parisian and want to try the other sandwich options. I'm excited to see how their concept evolves! The little market area is super cute and they have lots of tinned fish, cookbooks, wine, snacks, and more. This will be a go-to spot for me in the Downtown Market.

It's right around a ton of other shops, restaurants, and things to do so it's a great spot to stop on a walk or on a day out. My run club Lyon Street Run club recently met here and it's been great. The wall art is really nice and the staff is incredibly friendly. There is not a TON of seating, making it more intimate, but also makes it great for a quick to-go drink from a local business.

I ordered a specialty seasonal latte - rose cardamom cinnamon, hot, with oat milk. I'm not sure if it comes with 1 or 2 shots of espresso and I forgot to ask. It was really nice! I liked that it wasn't too sweet; it was fairly fragrant, too. The owner was sweet and the interior is fairly specious, and very clean. It seems like a nice place to get work done. There's a small menu for food options (toasts, a few sandwiches, etc). My drink came out to be $7.69 total.

It's my birthday weekend and wanted to treat myself to a luxurious brunch. Of course I chose…read moreLittlebird for the best French omelettes in the area. I adore crab so ordering that was a no brainer. Their coffee is strong. It took a ton of cream to change the color... though it was delicious with free refills for $5. The omelette was heaven. All the flavors melded well and I appreciated the crisp acidic salad to cut the richness of the omelette. My only critique is wishing the crab salad topping was a bit more decadent. For $21 I was hoping for big lumps of crab rather than cool shredded mayo based salad. All in all, I love this place, I love the concept. It was quite busy and was thankful to snag a seat at the bar. The service was friendly and quick. Best hipster establishment I've patronized in a long time. Make a reservation if you have a group or pray there is a seat at the bar. Keep doing your thang Littlebird!!

My boyfriend and I stumbled in during happy hour and were happy to grab some cheap drinks, but the main event was the burger! We typically like sitting at the bar as well and chat with the bartender who was absolutely lovely! The dirty martini was okay but I will definitely order something else next time as the olives just didn't hit for me. It's a quaint and quiet spot - you can read that as intimate - since it's not loud or rowdy, so if you want a really sweet date spot, feel free to check this one out! Otherwise, you can just go and have a casual, delicious dinner. Parking is limited with the street parking and it being so close to Monroe Center but you shouldn't have a terrible time finding something, even if requires a parking ramp vs street parking. I'd just recommend a reservation if you are going on a weekend or don't want to wait/sit at the bar!
