Really nicely cooked food here, with some interesting menu choices like schnitzel and bratwurst. The schnitzel is excellent, and the accompanying German potato salad is really good. I've also tried the 'pollo pleaso', which is a fantastic grilled chicken sandwich. Staff is calm and professional....Read More

A good neighborhood diner, with very good food. The mango chicken salad is a winner. Burrito good and big. Just about everything on the menu is good. Some waitpeople are great, others just so-so. Value in food offered.

Hands down, one of the best establishments I've been to in awhile. The service was top notch and the food was amazing. Very relaxed atmosphere. If I lived closer, this would easily become a place I would visit frequently. 100% recommend.

Absolutely fantastic restaurant. Great food, great atmosphere, and great staff. Life is good when Arnie is behind the bar. My only recommendation is that they add a gluten free bun/bread option for their burgers and sandwiches. And it’s a no brainer too as they could...Read More

A good reliable place to eat. It's like a coffee shop but they serve breakfast, lunch, dinner and have a bar too. Never have I had a bad experience. Although, their actual hours are different than what is internet posted.

Chicken salad sandwich was DELICIOUS! Added pickles, but good without. The bread was thick and grilled - mouth watering! Had a side salad with Thousand, which was yummy (can be too sweet, but not at Magpie’s). Servers were quick, attentive, and so friendly. Perfect classic...Read More

All the staff are very quick to respond when you need something. Have not had anything on the menu that we did not like. Bloody Mary's are amazing... We come here often and always have a pleasant experience.

What a nice little find in the Montrose area. So a couple alterations on the food would have been nice, the food was really good and the menu is just offering you wonderful selections. It is definitely worth a try.
