The Birds Cafe

A quaint restaurant complex with wonderful outdoor seating and bay views. Staff was great and patient with our group order. The food was good, but definitely different that south Louisiana and the east coast. Coffee shop is attached and had great pastries and wine selections to boot. A very nice spot to stop either at the beginning or end of your coastal adventure. Con: only one bathroom, just need to know that before the beer drinking begins😉👍🏽

I had the 2 piece fish and chips, and a soda, and it came out to a hair over $21 before tip. This is around what I was expecting to pay for a meal in Bodega Bay, and the food was delicious! The fish pieces were a little small so if you're a big appetite person you might want to go with the 3 piece. The patio had a pretty nice view! The food came out quickly. Overall a really nice spot for lunch!

I loved the artichoke tacos. Not some thing I would think of ordering as it’s not a usual thing on the menu, but the artichoke was deep-fried and the tacos were full of vegetables, so it was the best of both worlds. The two others in my party got the chicken tenders and the corn dogs with french fries. They thought it was a good value considering it’s so expensive eating out these days. We were offered all kinds of condiments. We got there early and the window was open so we stood waiting until the worker told us that they don’t open until 11:30 AM. Went to the Cafe next-door for coffee and a cinnamon bun Meanwhile. Once we could place our order we were able to pay with Apple Pay and got a buzzer. When the food was ready, we went to the other side of the little building to pick up our food. We sat on the upper patio with the dogs. They were trash cans, indicating where to put which kind of trash. Did not see any canned for regular trash that we had with us. They only serve recyclable and compostable trash, which is great. There is a restroom on the side of the building. The parking was easy at the end of the lot at the time we arrived, 11 AM on a Monday, but it was filling up as we sat at the restaurant.
