My wife and I have been coming to Magpie since it opened. Always have loved the service and quality of the food. Tonight, we did not have a good experience. I just hope that it is not the norm. It took 45 minutes to get a beer. 45 minutes after ordering our food before our server told us that the appetizer we ordered was not available, and 20 more minutes before our food arrived with her dish being cold and not up to the standard of charging $20+ for the entree. Granted, very busy and would like to give them the benefit of the doubt. We have enjoyed Magpie for a very long time and I am hesitant to even put out a complaint but hopefully instead of going down a path of putting out a subpar product you guys can work on at the very least putting out quality food. Wouldn’t have even minded the wait if the food had been worth it.

This was our first time eating here, and we didn't quite know what to expect. We were hungry and it was close by, so we thought, why not!?
We thought the atmosphere was very neat. Boho/industrial. I loved the plants in the windows. The music was just a bit too loud for us, but the music genre was pleasant.
We ordered nachos as an appetizer, 1 pork taco, 1 chicken taco, and the Bleu Jay with fries. We decided to share everything.
For some reason, all of our food came out at the same time. I forgot to take pictures of the food! The sandwich was really good and the beer-battered fries were great. They had a great crispness to them. I ordered ranch and it was perfect thickness for dipping...no drips!
Both of the tacos were okay, in our opinion, but the pork ones were the better choice. Sadly, the nachos were cold and soggy. If they would have been served before our meal, and warm, they would have been great. There is good flavor there, though. I had asked for no olives, but there were still olives that I had to pick out. The avocado verde had a great taste, but I am glad I ordered it on the side. My husband won't touch anything with avocado.
I have recently been expanding my restaurant choices since being desensitized to several foods that I have reacted to. I will give them another try to see if the food timing is better. I might even bring in a slice or two of pineapple to throw on that sandwich....it would have made it the best sandwich ever.

An amazing place with amazing drinks and service. And if you get the chance check out The Glass Bucket. Their food, drinks, atmosphere, and service are absolutely brilliant. Will definitely be back next time I'm in town.

Drinks are a bit pricey but they are big and excellent concoctions.

Food and service was great. Biggest downside is depending on the time you go, the brunch menu may be the only option. It would definitely be more clear/helpful if the full menu wasn't given out when it's not available.

This seemed like a great option for us for supper. Their website and reviews talked about the hamburgers and steaks. When we got there, they had new menu with no hamburgers or any beef products, so we left. The waitress a sweet girl, said that the pork chops were an option, but that is not what we had come for. So, not impressed with the new menu.
The outdoor atmosphere is the best in Great Falls. Drinks and beer selections are great. Wait staff does a fine job. Unfortunately, the food is average and the timeliness of getting your food seems to be getting worse. Last 2 visits- chicken strips were small and cooked to death. Sent them back and the next batch was much the same. Smash burger was cooked to oblivion. I will continue to visit for drinks but no more food for us.

Lyla and the Magpie team were our bartenders for our wedding and we are so glad we worked with them. They worked with us in advance to create a totally personalized cocktail menu. Lyla is very professional and also really fun, it was a pleasure to work with her. They were respectful of our budget and brought joyful energy to our reception. We highly recommend their bartending services!
We also generally love to visit the Magpie anytime we're in GF - amazing space/patio, delicious food, creative drinks. All-around good vibes!
