When I first glanced at the menu, I was excited to see that they had Modelo Negra on tap. One of the very few places I have found that has that. I then ordered the sampler appetizer with Sweet & Spicy wings, Fried mushrooms, and spinach and artichoke dip. The wings were delicious, as were the fried mushrooms. The dip, however was fairly bland and the chips were stale. My waiter was on it, however as he told me they were just making fresh ones and he'd be more than willing to swap them out. I also ordered the Hot Boagie with coleslaw. Sandwich was great, coleslaw was bland. Overall food was decent and my waiter was great. However the reason for the low rating and reason I will never return came when I received my bill. 2 separate prices. 1 price for cash, 1 price for card. I don't recall seeing anything about a card upcharge on the menu, when I ordered, and even so, I believe that practice to be very unethical. Businesses claim those fees as deductions when they do their taxes, so they get that money back and therefore, I view it as double billing. If it is an insurmountable expense, then just slightly raise your prices, across the board. Hope that fee was worth me never returning.

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.
Parking: There are other businesses that share parking but had never not found parking.

Food is meh, drinks are strong but that’s all…. Bunch of old drunks, don’t understand how they are in business. Tastes like hospital food.

We met friends for lunch, amazing service, separate tickets we're fine, large menu from sandwiches, appetizers, Mexican food. Really nice.The restaurant itself is just a little tired.

My friend, a local, recommended Magpie for lunch. He touted the salads, but I chose the New York steak sandwich. I accompanied it with a Stella Artois draft which came ice cold and was more than wonderful. The steak sandwich was the steak and onion rings between sourdough slices. I had forgotten how delicious a steak can be; this one might have been my first in decades. I chose potato salad as my side - it was just right. The service was great, we left a generous and well-earned tip. Prices are, by today's standards, low considering the quality, tastiness and location.
