I only popped in for a coffee but absolutely loved the energy in this place. I felt very relaxed and calm. It certainly helps being greeted with a big smile from the Barista.
The coffee is really good, would recommend getting an Oat Latte. And I would definitely recommend the Sausage Roll from here. The only issue with this place is that things are on thr pricier side.
The food is great (especially the bread), the service is equally good. Lovely Bakery.
Best coffee shop in Balham. Nice coffee, good atmosphere and their pain au chocs are brilliant.
Do yourself a favour, try the lamingtons!
My partner is a homesick Australian and he loves Blackbird’s Aussie classic.
On reflection, no, don’t buy them. Leave them for us 😂
If you are looking for enormous croissants, this is the place to go to! Their sourdough bread is amazing too. Highly recommended.
Great place. Staff is very friendly (even when you come few minutes before closing times and ask for a coffee). They've got a great selection of cakes and sandwiches. I personally find the coffee is good and they do have alternatives to dairy (oat, soy etc...)
The cakes are really good quality and
Really friendly crew, makes their job look easy and flowing (but they are legging it). The spinach and cream pastry is to die for. Their breads also look epic. Recommended 🙂
Friendly staff serving Best espresso in Balham, croissants could be improved a bit (let’s try chocolate, jam, almond…). Good bread
Excellent coffee and friendly staff make the most of thus small cafe. Also has a small selection of savory and sweet snacks. Sells excellent bread too.
The staff are cheerful and helpful. The range of food is good . The coffee is excellent!!
Delicious chai latte, super friendly staff, and a warm atmosphere. The only downside was the WiFi wasn't working. Thank you Blackbird!!!

Bought the lovely sourdough bread yet again! So happy that you can get it sliced here too. Got a loaf for myself and one for my friend. It freezes well.
