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.

UPDATE: After my initial 2 star review, the owners reached out to me and did refund me and give me a gift card to try their place again. They also updated the info on the online ordering system to avoid such a disconnect between expectations vs reality. I was pretty impressed with the response to criticism so they have definitely earned my respect in that regard. The food was decent overall so I will try them again in the future. ORIGINAL: I wanted to like this place because the menu looked so good, but my $15 maple sausage waffle sandwich was honestly pretty laughable. I asked for no egg, sub veggie sausage, add green peppers. I still wanted cheese but that was missing. The veggie sausage is so thin and tiny, and likely was heated from frozen. The syrup is corn syrup, not actual maple syrup which I would have expected given the word “maple” is all over the name and description of the item. My chocolate strawberry latte was good but I wish when ordering they would tell you that a small is 8oz, not 12.

First time trying this place and I was pleasantly surprised! The ambience is friendly and the seating area looked nice. I got takeout so I didn’t get a chance to try it out. Staff were very friendly! A younger worker there named Cassie brightened my morning. Very bubbly and great with customers. Will definitely be eating here again.

Forgot to take picture of my complete order but the food is delicious, for my girls that can’t eat meat this is the spot for you, I ordered the Avocado, mixed green and provolone, I added pesto and God it was delicious, for drink I had the hot chocolate chai with oat milk, you can definitely taste pure cacao in it. We tried the gingerbread muffin, you could taste the spicy ginger and perfect in the sweetness. The place is clean and, ambiance is perfect and makes you feel comfy employees greet you and make you feel welcome. If you are a local or are just around the Groton area definitely try this place. I’ve been living in the town next to Groton and definitely recommend it. I will try more often my self

Food is very good. Turkey pesto panini was delicious. We were required to pay using their app as the register was closed, so assume you are required to use their app. The vibe is kinda weird.

I stopped in here for lunch. There are touch screens to place your order. You then seat yourself. My drink was delivered before I even sat down and the food came out very quickly. I had a turkey club sandwich with pickles and it came with chips. It was delicious.

We took a guest over for breakfast and thoroughly enjoyed the food. The ordering system did take us a minute to figure out but once we knew what to do, it was a breeze. We ordered the home fries with the black bird egg specials and caprese panini. Washed it all down with cappuccinos and hot cafe which was a perfect end to a satisfying meal! I was busy eating that I forgot to take pics of the food! Will definitely visit again
