Welcome to Thunderbird Café, where Southern charm meets Southwestern flair in a celebration of fresh, homemade goodness. Nestled just outside Harrisonburg, Virginia, near Massanutten, Thunderbird Café brings bold flavors, warm hospitality, and a vibrant dining experience. Our colorful, rustic-meets-urban atmosphere with a dash of funk is the perfect setting to enjoy the heart and soul of our menu.

Our Menu: Southern Roots, Southwestern Vibes

Every dish at Thunderbird Café is crafted from scratch, using fresh, locally sourced ingredients that highlight the best Southern and Southwestern cuisines. From all-day breakfast to comforting entrees, we designed our menu to delight your palate:

  • Breakfast, All Day: Indulge in favorites like our made-from-scratch sausage gravy or explore creative options like the Wild Wing Waffle—a house-made Belgian waffle topped with Southern-fried chicken tossed in buffalo sauce and drizzled with a maple-honey glaze, perfectly blending sweet, spicy, and savory flavors.

  • Southern Comfort Classics: Experience the rich flavors of dishes like Mama's Meatloaf or Shrimp & Grits, which our chefs prepare with love and tradition.

  • Southwestern-Inspired Creations: Enjoy bold, smoky, and spicy influences in dishes like our specialty burritos and handcrafted burgers.

  • Homemade Loaves of Bread & Desserts: Treat yourself to fresh-baked breads and freshly in-house baked goods that embody the true spirit of homemade goodness.

We offer CALL-IN TO-GO during weekdays.
