Literally had to go back the next after the first time I went! Place is amazing. Fresh food cooked in the perfect way. Service is always wonderful and friendly as well.

Wish we lived closer. I'd shop here. Food was fresh and delicious. Not much seating inside though so consider the weather.
Thomas Graham
Amazing local food. Highly recommend.

I HAVE BEEN A PATRON FOR THE LAST COUPLE YEARS. THE FOOD IS PRICEY BUT PLENTIFUL AND VERY GOOD. THERE IS LITTLE AC IN THE SUMMER AND COOKS AND DELI WORKERS SEEM VERY UNHAPPY AND TENSE. A COMPANY IS ONLY AS GOOD AS THE WAY THE “HEAD MAN†TREATS THOSE IN HIS EMPLOY. WHEN THEY ARE HAPPY IT SHOWS. OVERWORKED AND SELDOM IF AT ALL APPRECIATED. NO SMILE NO WELCOME. NO COMMUNICATION WITH BOSS OR CUSTOMERS FOR THAT MATTER. I WONT BE BACK.

Bob Toomey
Fabulous food, wonderful people. Worth going out of you way.
Rosina Marini
Fantastic daily specials, fresh ingredients, wonderful service. Wish every neighborhood had a Blackbird market :)
David Harris
Great service. Left us alone enough to talk about our day. Food was very good but the salsa was just a bit hot. We will be back. Same John's island restaurant as it was. Good Job all.
Joyce Polk
The food is excellent and the staff are very helpful.

My husband and I LOVE their Chicken Parm and pasta! It is sooo good. Thank you so much to the chef or chefs that cook them!
Jessica TheCanvaswench Baker
Love the take and bake! Good produce, good local sea food.
Tiffany Blackwell
Dont let the casual feel of this place fool you... they serve up some of the best homecooking you will taste in the lowcountry. I really wish this place had indoor seating and I would be there year round. They offer very generous portions at reasonable prices! There are great shaded picnic tables outside or you can pickup to go. Their desserts are so good too!

Local produce and other fare. Take out meals are great portion and delicious. Probably the best fried pork chops on the island.

We had been to the Angel Oak and just happened upon this place. Food was excellent and staff wonderful. We now have 2 destinations on John's Island: Angel Oak and Blackbird!
Loren Dupuis
My husband and I shared the fried seafood platter which was plenty for both of us and we even had leftovers! This was the best fried seafood we've had on Johns Island, surpassing Simply Seafood and even Fishers!!! 🙊
Dana Dawson
Excellent fried chicken. Every side had been great, especially the mac and cheese. I wish there was more indoor seating, but it's more of a market and take away place. The banana pudding was also tasty and there was a lot of it in the to go container.

Was surprisingly good, had a cheeseburger that had a nice beef flavor and black eye peas which were good. My lemonade was also good, not to sweet but not sour either. Wife had the turkey wrap and she loved it. The staff inside was polite and fairly helpful. Only complaint would be lack of inside seating required us to sit at outside picnic tables, which was a little hot and had to keep shoing the flies away so they didn't land on our food.

This place is great but be prepared to stand in line...totally worth the wait. My BLT was so big it will make 2 meals. Now,let's talk Key Lime pie, out of this world. Just the right amount of tang. You really need to check it out.
Jane Barile
Varied, local produce...small market
spacenintari
This place is incredible.everything is farm fresh and top notch most importantly made with pride.the portions are very hearty as well.I had thier the porkchop plate special the other day.literally the best i have ever had!!!money well spent.for only a couple bucks more then you would spend buying a fast food value meal you can have farm fresh food with no preservatives that is made with love.for me this is a no brainer!!!i’m praying that one day they will bring back thier fried green tomato and goat cheese side dish they used to have on the menu.fingers crossed...thank you blackbird and keep doing what you are doing

Great fresh lunch in a hole in the wall place!
Courtney Gingerich
Their Greek salad is delicious, and make sure to get a couple of cookies! Yum
Lonnie Ard
Super clean. Good selection. Employees are really nice. Highly recommend!
Sarah Morgan
I picked up food during my lunch break, and it was delicious. This was my first time going, and I’ll definitely be back again. I ordered the Cuban sandwich which had lots of meat, pickles & mustard. All of the pies looked great though- will have to eventually try those!
Floy Work
Great lemonade, tasty big sandwiches and you can sit outside.
Aaron Cohen
Great farmers market type place. A few tables to sit at for lunch (everything was so good) and a bunch of local meats, snacks, desserts and other food items. Definitely will be back.
Jennifer Williams
A bit fabulous find when we were looking for a quick bite.The best BLT ever!! The baked goods looked fabulous but we were saving ourselves for a nice dinner later
Timothy J
Fantastic food.
Davis Poore
Blackbird has phenomenal lunch options, service, and sustainability values. Would highly recommend for produce shopping, fresh seafood and meats, as well as a collection of craft snacks, beers, wines, and canned goods. But ultimately it is the daily rotating lunch menu(s) that take the cake. Definitely call order in ahead as they get busy!
Andrew Schneider
Pretty cool little spot. Awesome sandwiches including the grilled cheese, po boy, and Cuban. The Hamburger was not very good in comparison. I also got the frozen croissants to bake at home, which were awesome!!
Trey Wall
Excellent lowcountry fare. Good portions and prices.

Best fried chicken and desserts in town /for pick up after work or evening with friends They have it all, why not take the night off and let them do the cooking? I’m glad I did
P Buongiorno
We always order the chicken pot pie or tomato pie to take home and bake. The chicken pot pie is frozen solid and can take up to 1-1/2 hours to bake, but it’s a delight on a cold evening. When in season, the tomato pie is fresh and equally delicious. Call first to make sure they have them available. Sometimes all the ones they’ve made have been set aside for customers. They’ll call you when your name comes up.

Awesome place for meat, fish and bakery items. Limited menu with killer food.
Joy Hitchcock
Wonderful, local produce and fresh seafood. I had lunch there and it was great! The desserts are sinful!
Jacqualine Jones
Stopped by for lunch passing through John's Island. Glad I did! The food was delicious and touched my soul. Greens, mac and cheese, rice and black eyed peas with hush puppies was my vegetarian plate at lease until I realized the greens were cooked with bacon. Soooo good, I'll be back for some desserts I saw with a daily special!
Brent Tatum
Stopped for lunch. Steady flow of customers but food was served fairly quick and was really good. Will definitely eat there again, but once it cools down. When its 93 degrees outside last thing you want to do is sit inside where it feels like air conditioning is non existent. Get that fixed and place would be outstanding.
Kevin C.
Got the fried flounder and it was fantastic. Local flounder friend perfectly, and the housemade cucumber and tomato salad was very tasty and fresh. Can't wait to go back and try some more dishes!
Joshua Garland
Food is better than ok, price is high, steaks were tough... Expensive but middle of the road at best
J London
Staff always glad to help, knowledgeable and ready. Food has been good. A little eclectic, poke your head in the door and take a look.
William Anderson
Great take out food and friendly staff. Very reasonable prices. The parmison chicken is very good with generous portions.
Karla Swain
Always a wonderful meal! You can buy local produce, seafood, and premade dishes.
Josh Pagano
Delicious. Cheese grits were out of this world!
Jason B
The food is great everything I have tried so far was very good. You will have to wait this is not a quick lunch place. Call ahead with order or be prepared not to go anywhere for a bit
Karen Kuhn
Wonderful little market with great food.
Chris Chmura
Bought tuna and it was so bad we had to throw it out; customer service was horrible and workers did not wear hand protection between working with raw fish/other items and cash. Would never go there again
Romaine Spratt
Farmers Market! Delicious food! All Local SC !!!
VINCE
I eat here multiple times a week and the food is always good. It's not easy to find a place that is so consistent with their food quality. I also look forward to the daily specials on the menu. Keep up the good work guys!
Buz Stepanek
Great Fried flounder sandwich with caesar salad. . Don't come for the atmosphere, come for the food.
Shawn Newton
