We’ve been here many times both dine in and takeout. Food reliably excellent. Service great. Atmosphere: sometimes just a bit noisy and seats sometime unavailable. But fine atmosphere otherwise.

Just tried this place this summer for the first time! Upon entering, there was a little shopping side that you could browse before or after ordering food. I got the Chicken Piccata sandwich and it was delicious. The sandwich did not come with chips though.

Figured it was time to leave a review after visiting upwards of 20x…The main barista here is a visionary and master of the craft. I am a regular at broadsheet, george h, little wolf…but the lattes at ovenbird, when made by Tyler, match/exceed the level every time. Not to mention the pastries are fantastic with a wide selection. This cafe is a gift to Belmont!

We had a recent event catered by Ovenbird and we would definitely recommend their catering services! They were so responsive in the planning process and all of our guests were raving about the delicious food. Everything was presented and packaged beautifully and tasted amazing.

Glad this spot exists! They serve delicious chocolate chip scones, offer some fun accessories, and sell Broadsheet coffee beans. Prices are reasonable for the quality. While it may not be the best bakery in Massachusetts, it’s a great place to grab a snack or drink and relax for a bit.

The food was good but my sister ordered gluten free potatoes and towards the end we realized there was a crust of bread on the bottom touching the potatoes. We were sharing and I’m not gluten-free but she has real medical reasons for going gluten free and this kind of error could cause her days in pain.
Before that, I completely loved the ambiance and the food I had eaten. I even ended up buying some gifts from the assorted collection on the entry wall

Great cafe with plenty of room and seating. The seating and bar lines the window with street view for some nice smiles and possible sun depending on weather. The meal was filling and much different from any cafe I’ve been to. Never have I seen sweet potato hash before. I was also very surprised with the delicious taste and kick of the meal. We are looking forward to trying other options on their unique menu. The lobby and bathroom are exceptionally clean.

Overbird Cafe was a pit stop while out Estate Sale shopping. We had a party of three and were able to secure a nice table in the middle of the room. I had ordered a Flat White as well as an Herbed Biscuit Egg Sando. My flat white was very good, texture was great, not my usual order so I’ll leave the comparisons alone. My other party members both ordered Cubano sandwiches and to much regret I wish I had also. Although the components of my sandwich were good, great egg, good biscuit (very well seasoned) but it was all a bit dry. Definitely would recommend pairing a sauce with it, I settled for dipping it in a combination of Sriracha and ketchup. Upon leaving I had my eye on a ham, egg, and cheese focaccia round type pastry and I got another large cold brew. The pastry ended up being incredible reheated at home and the black cold brew coffee was smooth, hit the spot, got me through the day.
Nothing wrong, I can see the charm of a nice local neighborhood spot but I’m just not from around the area. Service was excellent and with spots like this, having friendly staff who make great drinks and treat their customers well goes a long way, just don’t see myself going out of my way to return. If you’re living in the area and need a local cafe, highly recommend stopping in.

My wife and I love coming to Ovenbird for breakfast and lunch, so when planning her baby shower, we reached out to see if they would be able to cater. They were incredibly responsive, they were able to accommodate our order on short notice, and the food was a huge hit! The group favorites were the butternut squash, chicken piccata, and of course the delicious mac and cheese. Highly recommend as a catering option to anyone in the Belmont/Watertown area.
