About This Spot

Stepping into Lady Birds Cafe feels like uncovering a cherished local secret—a warm, welcoming family restaurant that moves at a comfortable, easygoing pace. From the moment you walk through the door on Sheridan’s quaint main street, you're greeted by cozy charm and thoughtful touches that echo small-town friendliness. The gentle hum of quiet conversations, the subtle creak of wood, and the absence of harsh fluorescent lights create a relaxed atmosphere where whatever’s on your plate feels like a shared moment around an old friend’s kitchen table.

Lady Birds offers more than just a meal; it invites you to slow down and savor. The seating areas thoughtfully carve out different moods—front rooms buzzing softly with neighborhood energy and a tucked-back dining space that feels like a calm retreat. There’s an artful simplicity in the décor, where rustic nods like barn-inspired restrooms lend a playful yet comforting character, grounding the space in genuine personality.

The menu echoes this same balance—rooted in familiar comfort food yet sprinkled with fresh, unexpected flavors. Whether you’re enjoying seafood freshly fried to golden perfection, hearty plates of slow-cooked pot roast, or delicate touches like a tangy avocado taco, every dish arrives generous enough to share and inviting enough to make you linger. This is a place where homemade meets thoughtful, following traditions without ever feeling tired or predictable.

What truly sets Lady Birds apart is the people—both in the kitchen and at the tables. Hosts and servers greet you not as strangers, but like long-time friends, with friendly smiles and just the right dash of local charm. The experience is relaxed and genuine, full of the kind of soulful service that feels comforting in a way you don’t often find.

Whether you are passing through Sheridan or calling it home, Lady Birds Cafe offers a sense of belonging wrapped in hearty plates and quiet moments. It’s a place to feel settled, to share a laugh over a rich, dark sweet tea, and to take a moment to enjoy the unhurried pleasure of a truly local gathering spot.

The food is FABULOUS and the servings are HUGE. My husband has the Bacon Chicken Quesadillas, and I had the Parmesan Crusted Chicken. The staff are friendly, the atmosphere is very nice, no fluorescent lights, and cute decor. The Restrooms area looks like an old barn, rough lumber and a tin roof. Everything is top notch! The prices are amazing affordable too.

Absolute perfection! We had some fried southern seafood platters that were out of this world delicious. Fried catfish, fried shrimp, fried frog legs with hush puppies, green tomato relish baked beans and slaw!!! What you see on the table with two sweet teas came up less than $43 bucks! Yes! The total ticket. Our waitress was fun and sassy making the whole experience enjoyable. We drove over 35 miles just to try Ladybird and we will definitely be back bringing friends!

Friendly small town feels. Wonderful service There are 2 areas to sit, in the front when you first walk in and in the back as they guide you past the kitchen to a quiet comfy back room. Was told by multiple locals THIS is the place to eat. Huge, HUGE portions of food that most definitely could be shared with up to 4 people on 1 plate. I got their Sweet Tea and it was dark and rich as Tea should be and just sweetened perfectly for me. The Megel Queso was unique, different than most quesos. Fish Tacos of 3 HUGE Mai Mai lightly breaded and deep fried with a slightly sweet sauce ( I personally didn't care for the sweetness of this sauce). Husband got a HUGE open faced sandwich that was delicious but the shredded meat was a bit on the salty side for us. This is definitely a destination place in Sheridan. Thank you for having us. Would definitely recommend with the huge Menu options and Friendly service to boot.

This is one of my favorite restaurants. Unique and standard favorites with a fresh homemade touch. The food is always outstanding-my favorite is the loaded tots. Staff treat you like old friends. Very good old-fashioned service. Only thing they don’t really have dessert but we usually have to take home part of our entrees because the sizes are generous. Prices are good for the portion you get too.

Wow! I honestly can say this place knocked it out of the park and I rate it a 20 out of 10! I heard about this place from a buddy who lives in town and she took me here for lunch. She said everything was great on the menu. So I of course asked our waitress (Karly or Carly not sure of the spelling) what was good on the menu and she named off many items. We ordered sweet tea which will always tell me if a place is worth another try and sure enough it was fresh and delicious. We both ordered the Chicken fried steak both of us got the same sides but I tried the cornbread salad and she had the sautéed mushrooms both with mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese. Yall these meals are large so expect to take food home. The masked potatoes are home made because there are still perfectly soft chucks in them and the flavor is right on. Everything was fresh to be honest and you can tell from our plates at least. The place was packed and the service was quick. Our waitress Carly was such a great help and really light spirited. If I had a question she couldn’t answer, she would find someone to answer it for me. Amazing! The place had a vibe of different animal are that you have got to see for yourself. I will not spoil it for you. Very clean and dim lighting. The only complaint I have is there were no pies or sweets available when we visited. Even the people behind us asked for honey and I overheard them say they were out of that as well, so if you are going for a sweet treat ask before you sit. Hopefully that changes cause I usually get a dessert to either eat there or take home. The dessert case was empty. Still giving 5 stars cause I will be back and hope to try something new

Was worried about the flavor due to a post I saw. Food was crispy and tasty. Erika is so sweet. Will definitely be back. Lemonade was great catfish is what I had so much food.

First impression was it was a small place trying to get started. It appeared clean and was nicely decorated. My family placed their orders and was I surprised. The servings, over the top. The flavor of the foods were delicious. Open roast beef platter, fish, chicken strip dinner. All were great. If you like good southern food, you won't be disappointed. I drove 35 miles to try this spot and it was worth it.
