Blackbird Cafe

What a delight to find this cafe while visiting Groton. The coffee is absolutely delicious and my wrap was lovingly crafted and made to perfection. Customer service was also very friendly and helpful with the menu. Definitely will be back and recommend.

I wanted to love it. Chai was okay, could’ve used more flavor (super pale color too.) I got a bowl and the onions were barely cooked. All the breakfast items have very similar ingredients. Just seems lazy overall. Disliked my bowl so got a bagel. It was delicious but beware - lots of butter!! Which can be a good or bad thing depending on preference.

Food was over priced $50 for 2 burritos that did not come as order my wifes had no cheese and it was supposed to. The orange juice comes in a bottle and when asked for a glass with ice you would have thought I was ending the girls life.. bottom line food not real good. You have to tip before you get your food and then you have to clean up your dishes... just not worth it.

Sliced avocados are gone now which is a massive bummer. There’s only subpar guac left. I’ve noticed a trend with this place where the quality of not only the food but also things like their cups and sleeves are going downhill and yet prices remain astronomically high. I got a small hot drink and the sleeve didn’t even fit on properly; it broke and I spilled my drink on myself after leaving. It’s honestly not worth going back anymore unless you’re a masochist with a real kink for having your money stolen, in which case you’re better off just making a Twitter account. The quality of the food and the items you’re paying for should be matching the ridiculous prices.

**Blackbird Cafe - 3 Stars** Blackbird Cafe left much to be desired, starting with their digitized front desk, which replaced any real customer service in an effort to save on labor. I was asked for a tip before receiving any service, only to realize there wasn't much service to begin with. To make things worse, the food arrived at different times, completely disregarding the dining experience. The food itself was disappointing—the avocado sandwich came with cold bread, a spread instead of real avocado, and wilted, warm lettuce. Overall, it felt more like a missed opportunity than an enjoyable meal.
