Blackbird Espresso

Excellent find. The baristas were friendly and knowledgeable. Very clean establishment, including the bathroom. I had a pour over, which was made correctly and was wonderful. The croissant breakfast sandwich was fresh with quality ingredients. There is a comfortable outside seating area for great people watching. I’ll be back.

Will stop for açaí bowls. Whenever i see one on a menu i will get it. The Bright Eyes açaí bowl at Blackbird Espresso is a game changer. Combining blueberries and lemon curd in a bowl?! Nom nom nom. They are my two favorite flavors! The bowl was $10 but amply sized. (I got mine to-go but we ended up staying due to a hail storm.) my husband got a pastie he loved and my kids got brownies. The lattes were also delicious. The menu was lengthy, with plenty of options.

Need to stay awhile? There was plenty of seating, both indoor and out. The bathroom was clean. Everyone was friendly. Great spot. I’m not likely to ever be back in Spearfish, but I will be thinking about the açaí bowl for years to come.

Went to an early morning breakfast here with my mom and sister. I got the avocado toast, which was seasoned well and had lots of great flavor. My mom has celiac disease and they were able to make her quinoa breakfast bowl carefully and gluten free. Important to note though they cannot do it ‘certified’ gluten free, but were accommodating to her allergy. The smoothie bowl was also very refreshing and had delicious granola topping.

An important note, as a matcha lover, Blackbird Expresso has two different types of matcha! I hadn’t heard of one of them and the barista kindly explained the difference. Overall, a fantastic experience in staff, quality of food, and service. We will be back again soon!!

This is my first coffee shop I have been to in town so I do not have much to compare it to. Blackbird had lots of indoor and out door seating. They had great pastries and açaí bowls with homemade granola. Their strawberry kiwi tea and americano were delicious but they were out of their nitro cold brew. They only allow service animals and they forgot one of our items we ordered but they brought it right out as soon as we asked about it. Other than that, they have great service, great portions, and adorable decor.

Super cute and chill place! Stopped in for a latte and some breaky on our way home from SD. Staff was very friendly, food was delicious and the coffee was on point! We will be back next year for sure!

Cute little coffee spot! Great coffee and tea, quick service, friendly baristas.

Pasties and other pastries were delightful and the house coffee is solid. Very nice staff. Enjoyed the outdoor seating.

We loved black bird so much we came here 3 days in a row while camping. The black coffee and cold brew were excellent, so were the lattes - the honey bee latte is amazing. The carefully curated menu was exactly what we look for in coffee shops - breakfast sandwiches were very addicting as were the baked goods! I would recommend asking customers if they want a baked good warmed or at least mention that they are in a cooler not just a pastry case - still wonderful cold though! Very impressive and appreciated the welcoming kind staff:) thanks for the wonderful food and positive vibes - our dog also says thanks for the dog treats!

If you like to explore coffee shops make sure to stop here. One of the best in town for sure. We went here because it was on our way and it was a great coffee spot! The cups are a good size and they don’t drown the coffee out in ice. The service was fantastic and the coffee was really delicious. There was a sweet cinnamon drink we got that was perfectly balanced— not too sugary, just right!

Excellent coffee and breakfast sandwich.
