Reviews for Blackbird Public House in Denver, CO
WOW - What an arrogant reply from the owner: "we wouldn't be around long if things are as you stated." Do you doubt my... experience? Lots of other reviews lately seem to substantiate it. Pay attention to what customers have to say, cause only asmall percentage of dissatisfied customers let you know, the rest just never comeback. ************************************** Server said fried chicken was a breast and thigh and something, but it was really 3thighs. Good tasting chicken. The Mac and cheese tasted good except somebody spilled the tub of salt in it, which left no saltfor the coleslaw. I wouldn’t return here willingly. Orders for a table of 5 were spread out delivering to the table over a 15minute period. Not an experienced kitchen is my guess. Service was mediocre. Read more
Great food and vibrant staff, average to a bit above average pricing . The acoustics of the inside make it a bit loud at times.... Definitely grab one of their cocktails while you're there. Read more
Friendly service, good food overall. Steak was delicious! The Mac and cheese sauce kind of tasted more like a country gravy for... biscuits though. Not bad tasting, just more like pepper gravy than cheese sauce. Wish the salad had options besides springgreen mix :( But I did enjoy eating the shaved carrots, tomato and cucumber from my husband's side salad. Drinks were pouredwell. 1) Would've loved to have been able to buy some merchandise, but none for sale. 2) Oysters were great, but happy hourprice is $1.50ea, with 6 min. That's $9.00, but we were charged $10.00. Not exactly "make or break", but nobody likes to becharged incorrectly. :) We aren't local, but would certainly visit again. Read more
Very short staffed… left right after the appetizer to have dinner elsewhere. They have happy hour all day on Monday and every... other day from 3-6pm. Their happy hour has great deals. Like $25 for a bottle of wine and pizza. $5 1/2lb of mussels. $5 wine.Visited on a Monday, and they only had two staff members working… on a day with all day happy hour. Ordered the muscles inwhite wine sauce which were excellent. Unfortunately our waiter was extremely busy serving all of the restaurant. He was workingvery hard and was very polite in the moment we did get to see him. He took our drink and appetizer order. A runner served it tous and we didn’t get checked on for the rest of our stay (an hour +). Finished our appetizer with no silverware or napkins, noother drink orders, and no service. Couldn’t get anyone to come over. Finally stopped someone to give them our card to pay andleave. This place would be great if they weren’t so short staffed/scheduled better. Read more
Why is this place not packed??? The food is fabulous, the wait staff is fantastic, and the atmosphere is lovely. And I didn't... even mention the bottomless mimosas! Staffing issues - not lack of patrons - seems to be the issue at this time (10/9/21). Howunfortunate. Nathan was our wait staff at first. He was personable and knowledgeable. Madonna brought us our food and cashed usout. She was pleasant and efficient. Our food was made to order, took a little extra time, and was delicious. Husband had thebasic breakfast: 2 scrambled eggs, hash browns, bacon and toast. I had this, too, but with 2 eggs over easy (they were overhard), gluten free bread, and fruit (thinly sliced apple slices) instead of hash browns. We both agreed that all was delicious(even if my eggs were prepared incorrectly). Young niece had waffles, bacon, and fruit. She loved it all. Mom niece had salmonpoached eggs, gluten free bread and hash browns. Again, both enjoyed their meals. She and I had the mimosas (hers was abottomless grapefruit and I only had one cranberry mimosa). The total bill was $108 - $17 for the bottomless grapefruit mimosaand $2 extra for each of us getting the gluten free bread. It was also more expensive for á la carte items for young niece. Itwas worth it. Didn’t need lunch since this breakfast filled us up! Read more
Amazing place! I love their breakfast pizza, as well as they do have a large brunch menu. They do have unlimited mimosa, the... classic is unlimited anything else flavor wise is a $1.00 up charge, however who can complain when it's unlimited. The server'sare very attentive and would suggest book a table ahead of time, they also do make you a cute sign for your table as well! Beenhere a few times already and will be back. Read more
So we had great food and great service. We looked at the previous reviews and we're a bit skeptical. We will be back and just... a side note the drinks were great as well. For those who make it a point to make a comments about the service. Please keep inmind that the service for the restaurant industries down and finding people to hire is difficult. Many restaurants we know havehad to shutter because they could not find good kitchen staff or service. Be patient with the service and keep in mind you'rethere for the food. Read more
This is my first time here and I’m not from Denver, but this reminds me of home. Really good food, really good music, really... good atmosphere, really good service! They have a pizza and wine happy hour item for $25 and it’s unbeatable! The service hasbeen outstanding, you can tell that the employees enjoying where they work. I’ll definitely be back, this will be one of myregular spots! SCOTT WAS AMAZING! Read more
