Inspection summary

Birdies Kitchen & Bar has been inspected 3 times by Interior Health Authority since April 16, 2025. The most recent inspection, on April 9, 2026, recorded 1 infraction.

None of the 3 inspections on record were free of infractions. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 1 infraction recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Cleaning and sanitizing, Protecting food from contamination and Handwashing and staff hygiene.

What these findings mean

Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.

  • Cleaning and sanitizingHigher risk

    Anything that touches food, such as cutting boards, dishes and utensils, must be washed, rinsed and sanitized. Inspectors check dishwasher temperatures, sanitizer strength and how wiping cloths are stored. Poor sanitizing lets bacteria survive from one use to the next.

    Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on April 9, 2026. For example: 3 Are food contact surfaces, utensils and equipment washed and sanitized in a manner that removes/prevents contamination?

  • Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk

    This covers how food is stored, prepared and displayed: raw meat kept away from ready-to-eat food, food covered and stored off the floor, and nothing dripping or splashing into it. Cross-contamination from raw to cooked food is a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.

    Recorded once on October 6, 2025. For example: 7 Are foods protected from contamination?

  • Handwashing and staff hygieneHigher risk

    Hands are the main way germs like norovirus move from people to food. Inspectors look for stocked, accessible handwashing sinks, staff washing hands when required, hair restraints, and sick employees being kept away from food. Gaps here can spread illness quickly.

    Recorded once on April 16, 2025. For example: 7 Are there handwashing stations available and properly supplied?

    I had a great Lunch at Birdies!!! The Tokyo fries are so yummy, then we also have a paella, wings. Server Gavin is great at what he does, very nice recommendations to order. Love everything. Will come back again to dine in.

    The food was delicious! The best thing I tried was the ceviche. I'm Mexican, and honestly, I didn't think it would be good, but it really surprised me. You have to try it! Super delicious and very authentic! 👌 The happy hour is great. Overall, we really enjoyed the food and the facilities too. Highly recommended! Thank you!!

    I reserved a table for 12 people for lunch on a Saturday. The server was great and friendly. He is attentive. The food was good and delicious. I ordered the avocado Benedict. My family and relatives also enjoyed what they ordered. I like their big parking lot outside the restaurant. I don’t need to worry about parking. The restaurant is huge and has great ambience showing the American style well.

    First time at Birdies and it did not disappoint! Food was amazing. We ordered the ceviche which was so fresh and had a good balance of citrus and spice. We also got the korean bbq ribs and was pleasantly surprised that it was served on a bed of kimchi rice. Really good balance of flavors, the ribs were sweet and smoky and falls off the bone and the kimchi rice was tangy and complimented the ribs really well. We also got the El Cartel pizza that had shaved roasted ribeye, mozzarella cheese, pickled onions, and a light sour cream drizzle and again all the flavors blended beautifully with each other. Capped the night with their drunken tiramisu and it was ✨DIVINE✨. Highly recommend. Service by Alex, the ambiance, and food were superb. Will definitely be back.

    We visited this California-style Western brunch restaurant, and the experience was quite good overall. The servers were friendly and had a pleasant attitude. The coffee was just average — the beans seemed slightly over-extracted — but still acceptable for brunch. We ordered two dishes: the chicken and waffles, and a hash dish. The chicken and waffles were the highlight. The waffle was crisp on the outside and soft inside, with syrup giving it a nice sweetness. The fried chicken was surprisingly good — crispy and flavorful, almost like Taiwanese salt-and-pepper chicken. The hash dish was also enjoyable. The base tasted like a light borscht-style stew, and the eggs Benedict on top was decent. The most impressive part was the potato: they sliced the potatoes very thin, layered them like a mille-feuille, formed them into a square block, and fried or pan-fried it until crispy. It had great texture, though the seasoning was slightly on the salty side. The environment was comfortable, but only thing is that the portions were a bit small A nice spot worth trying.

    We came to this restaurant and even though they were not open yet, they welcomed us in early and let us order coffee while we waited. The restaurant itself is beautiful, and the food was even better. They even let me order breakfast even though it was no longer on the menu. Our server Ella was really great and made the whole experience feel warm and welcoming. The service was genuinely accommodating from start to finish. Definitely a spot we’ll be coming back to.

    I ordered the dinner set, and it was really awesome! The atmosphere and the taste were perfect. The variety of food was great, the tacos and the salad nachos were especially delicious. Both desserts were quite sweet, but I personally enjoyed them! they have parking available.

    Food was great, we finished all the dishes we ordered and did not have any left overs lol. The El Cartel pizza was so good, recommend! The Tokyo street fries were a little too salty though, the curry sauce was a nice touch.

    Tried the dine out vancouver dinner menu and I would say it was definitely worth the buck you pay. I had the thai coconut curry as a main and the portion was really big, the cod was cooked well, and the flavors all balanced together. Also …

    First time eating at Birdie’s and in my opinion, it’s overhyped. The food were ok, nothing overly amazing about them. They were quite pricey for something you can get at cactus or earls. It’s good to try one time to see but I didn’t find their menu to be overly interesting.
