Birdies Bistro

Situated at Griggs Quay in Hayle, Birdies Bistro has been a cherished dining spot since its opening in 2013. Owned and operated by Jenni and Dom, the family-run bistro has grown over the years, expanding its team and menu while maintaining the same beautiful views of the Hayle Estuary. Dom's culinary background includes experience at prestigious establishments such as Harrods and Raymond Blanc’s Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons, which influences the bistro's focus on real food and support for local producers.

Birdies Bistro offers a variety of dining options, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner with a focus on locally sourced, seasonal ingredients. Guests can enjoy hearty breakfasts like the Full Cornish Breakfast or lighter options such as waffles with fruit. Lunch and dinner menus feature dishes like burgers and local fish specialties. The bistro's large garden overlooking the Hayle Estuary provides the perfect spot for birdwatching, as the area is home to diverse wading birds and other wildlife. ​

The interior of Birdies Bistro is modern and airy, with large windows that capture the beautiful estuary views. The recent revamp of its popular outdoor area has added more seating, including a covered section adorned with twinkling lights for evening dining. The bistro is also pet-friendly, welcoming dogs both inside and outside, making it an ideal stop for those exploring nearby walking trails. With facilities such as baby changing stations, wheelchair access, and free Wi-Fi, Birdies Bistro caters to a wide range of guests, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable visit.
