The Bluebird Cocktail Room

Bluebird Baltimore is a stunning cocktail bar that exudes sophistication and charm. I recently visited to celebrate a friend's birthday and was thoroughly impressed by the upscale atmosphere and attentive service.The drink menu is creative and enticing, and I chose the Hessian's Head--a butternut squash sidecar that combined Maison Rouge, butternut squash, ginger turmeric syrup, and lemon. Each sip was a pleasure!While the experience was fantastic, parking was quite challenging due to its location, which can be a bit of a drawback. Additionally, be prepared for a workout, as the bar is situated up a considerable number of stairs. However, once you arrive, the ambiance and service make it all worthwhile.The pricing was fair for the quality of drinks and the overall experience. I would definitely recommend it for anyone looking to enjoy expertly crafted cocktails.

I came here for a date on a Thursday night. It wasn't packed but just the right amount of people. The vibe is very sultry and intimate. Dim lights, candles, books, and warm atmosphere. I was met by the hostess right away when I walked up. She was nice and seated me. The waiter came over right away and he poured my water and then made small talk about the menu. He was also nice!! He was very good at giving suggestions and he was very attentive. I ordered the meatballs and they were just okay. I didn't really taste much spice at all and they could have been a little more moist. But the tomato sauce was good and the ricotta at the bottom. We ordered a few drinks throughout our date. Old fashioned, three dots and a dash, fiery sleepy head, millionaires obsession, and a kiss your ass. My friend really enjoyed his old fashioned, he had about 2. I love the three dots and a dash, I had 2 of those also. I also really liked millionaires obsession. The fiery sleepy head was interesting but not bad. He finished it but he did not like the kiss your ass. When I tasted it, I didn't like it either. The after taste is not good. Of course everyone's tastebuds are different so try the drinks out for yourself. You will spend some money here just based of drink prices alone, of course depending on what you get. But it's a great vibe and experience!!

Back in 2019, the Blue Bird cocktail room was like the best place to go in Baltimore for cocktails. There's been a lot of changes obviously with Covid so I recently went back (stopping going for a bit) and was really surprised to see food on the menu. I forgot to take pictures, but we ordered the mushroom toast which was really good and their french fries which are kind of like the skinny fries. I feel like Blue Bird is back on the up and up and with the trying times we are living in 2025, cocktails are definitely coming back. I got their last word which is my favorite iteration of any cocktail and it was pretty good. Their vibes remain the same. It's a cool LIBRARY dark feeling bar, and the bartenders were really nice. It was pretty slow when we went and it was a Thursday night. This is in Hamden along the avenue, and I will definitely go back and post more pictures later.

Bluebird is one of the best cocktail bars I've been to in Baltimore! It screams elegance and class. The drinks are impeccably crafted and unique. The space is gorgeous and intimate. I love coming here for a date night or even a girls night. I also enjoy the space downstairs if it's busy upstairs. Overall, a 10/10!

I came here on a Wednesday night. Get ready to walk up some stairs as you enter! I love the vibe of the place, super low light with a victorian kind of vibe. They played a mix of old and new school pop music, which confused me because I didn't feel like it matched the ambiance.Sitting at the bar was a good time, the bartenders were nice and personable.My wife enjoyed her burger and the fries were tasty shoestring type.With that, I was not a fan of my drink. Charging $15 for a non alcoholic beverage is just baffling. It was more expensive than the drink my wife got that had actual alcohol in it. My drink just appeared to be just a glass of nonalcoholic Mionetto. The hummus had a very weird combination of ingredients (raisins and peanuts?) and the bread was quite flavorless. Won't be getting that again. Id definitely say still check it out, but I would have to try some different menu items.

Bluebird for the win! It's been quite some time since I've been here and I'm not exactly sure why that is. I stopped by on a Monday night and was greeted and seated immediately. Feeling a little peckish, I ordered the cheeseburger w/fries... and a side of meatballs. The food and cocktails did not disappoint. As expected, the drinks were expertly crafted and delicious. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. Service was top-notch - friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. Definitely add Bluebird to your list if you're in the area!

Fabulous cocktail bar! First time visiting, and we decided to check it out for happy hour on Friday. Their happy hour window is pretty limited (as is the menu), but we got there exactly at 5 to make the most of it. There were just a handful of people at that time, but started filling up quickly. Service was fantastic! Esthetic is on point (moody and cozy). Unfortunately, several drinks on the menu were not available on the day we visited due to seasonal change, and apparently they change their menu every 2 months! I tried their cocktail of the week, which had a coffee-absinthe flavor profile. $10. It was good, but I felt that all the ice diluted the flavor. My husband tried one of their regular menu drinks (forget the name now) but it was beautifully presented and a delight to drink! The shishito peppers are are awesome and would highly recommend. We will definitely be coming back!

Great drinks but perhaps just a tad overrated. Service was attentive but not overly so. I know the prices reflect ambiance too but still a bit steep. Not a regular spot for me but nice for special occasions and/or for bringing guests from out of town.

I have been coming here for years for cocktails; however, I am just discovering the other sides of the menu beyond the burger and fries. Yesterday, I went with a group of friends and was pleasantly surprised by the fried zucchini dish. It had a delicious crab medley underneath. While I thoroughly enjoyed it, crab wasn't mentioned anywhere in the description which is dangerous for allergy sufferers.The ambiance is always incredible. The service was a little slow and the food delivery was delayed due to there being only one chef that night. S/he did their best, but unfortunately, my friends and I received our cooked dishes long before my other friend received her steak tartare; however, the manager came to apologize, provided us with a free round of drinks, and adjusted our bill! We greatly appreciated that. It was a fabulous evening! I highly recommend this swanky cocktail lounge!

We came here for brunch. Beautiful space!! I've been here before in the evening. Brunch is a different vibe. We had the biscuits as an appetizer and my God, they were divine!!! We asked for an additional order. Our server was patient. She gave great suggestions on drinks and food. The only reason we docked 1 star is because the menu online didn't coincide with the menu we were provided upon sitting down and I didn't really think the price point matched the value of the food we ate. The chef was able to make some accommodations for us. And we so very appreciate that. Bluebird is definitely going to give you that top tier quality service and elevated cocktails! It's a great date night situation in the evening or for a brunch date with bae or the homies. I'll definitely be back but but I don't think I'll be eating food.
