Everything is cooked to order, portions are generous, and the coffee never stops flowing. Whether you're fueling up before hiking Highland Lakes or settling in for a long catch-up with friends, Birdie's serves real food made with care, not shortcuts.

"Somebody was complaining about lack of meat? This is my go to order for lunch, Turkey Avocado BLT on multigrain 👌✨ I wish they offered side salads or cup of soup instead of fries. Breakfast is always great too, they always give 10lbs of home fries on the side, I would love it if they would add some onions and peppers but it’s very north Jersey diner to have bland home fries, flavor would scare the locals."

"Best service! Delicious Food! Phenomenal customer service from our waiter and manager. Positive atmosphere and demeanor. The food tasty and properly filling, definitely makes me feel like my money is well spent 😄 I got the Monte Cristo Sandwich on French Toast (which was delicious) and my partner got Apple Pie Pancakes (covered in sweet apples!) Overall great service!"

"If there were an Olympic medal for serving a table like ours, Angel would take gold—standing ovation included. Today we rolled in with a party of 10 (3 adults and 7 kids ranging from a tiny 9-month-old to an energetic 11-year-old), which basically means controlled chaos… and Angel handled it like an absolute pro. The service was beyond top-notch: attentive, kind, patient, and genuinely warm. Not once did we feel like “that table,” even though we absolutely looked like a traveling circus at moments. No huffing, no puffing, no side-eye—just calm confidence and a smile that said, I’ve got this. And he did. The food was fantastic, everything came out smoothly, and Angel somehow anticipated our needs before we even realized we had them. He understood the assignment and then went above and beyond it. Because of him, our dinner felt relaxed, fun, and truly enjoyable—which is no small feat with that many kids at the table. Thank you, Angel, for an unforgettable dining experience. You lived up to your name in every way—you really are an angel."

"I stopped by Birdie’s Cafe in Vernon for breakfast and was pleasantly impressed. The menu is full of classic comfort‑food options and creative breakfast dishes — I ended up trying the “Birdie’s Breakfast” (egg whites, turkey bacon, fruit cup & toast) and it hit the spot. The portion was generous and the fruit was fresh. The menu also features more indulgent items (pancakes, waffles, crepes) for when you’re feeling like a treat. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. The dining area felt comfortable, staff were friendly, and the pace was good — we weren’t rushed. It’s the kind of place where you can linger over your coffee and enjoy a relaxed start to the day. According to online reviews, many guests appreciate the spaciousness and the fact that you can’t go wrong with the food. That said, there were a couple of small things worth noting: The coffee was good but didn’t blow me away; and despite the large menu, a few items felt a little pricey for what you got. On a future visit I might stick to the breakfast specials rather than the more expensive indulgent choices. All in all, Birdie’s Cafe is a strong option if you’re in Vernon and looking for a comfortable, satisfying breakfast or brunch. It checks the boxes for friendly service, a solid menu, and a nice environment. I’m giving it 4 out of 5 stars, and I’ll definitely consider returning next time I’m in the area."
