Yardbird is our rotisserie chicken restaurant upstairs above The Dirty Onion. Our menu is small but our flavours are big. Ok, we do chicken, but our chicken is famous!

Our local free-to-roam chicken is marinated for 24 hours in lemon, buttermilk, and paprika. It is then dry-rubbed, cooked and blast-chilled to keep it juicy and finally roasted on the spit. Ribs and wings are also available, as are a choice of sides and homemade desserts. Hungry yet?

We prepare all our food in-house and service is fast!

This is a booking for Yardbird the restaurant, The Dirty Onion bar operates on a first come first serve basis.

    My friend and I really enjoyed our meal. The service was quick and our overall experience was very pleasant. I have been before so knew what to expect. Would recommend to others. Thank you.

    Beer and wine selection very poor. Had the 25.50£ deal for ribs, wings and a side. Poor value for five ribs and ten chicken wings, corn was bland and served in a dish with a lot of water. Ordered extra chicken for 15£/half to fill the gap. Guinness was flat. The ribs were nice but I wouldn't return based on the prices. Cost nearly 70£ all in with two beers each.

    Fantastic little place,venue was lively and great country music playing over the sound system. The menu although limited was absolutely out of this world. The drinks were all local and the staff lovely and attentive. Highly recommend this place.

    Food was good, service was very good and pleasant. The actual table we were sat at was very poor and needs to be replaced. The surface is bubbled and splintered, the base is wobbly and the top also wobbles independently of the base. We did ask to be moved but were told all the other tables were booked, I'd accept that only nobody had sat at them by the time we were leaving. The menu is also poorly labelled - one item labelled as vegan with no clarity on any of the sides or sauces provided. Our waitress did happily check with the chef but why bother labelling one item but not the rest?
