Maggie’S Kitchen

While visiting Ouray we got dinner here and it was yummy. Service was quick and it has open seating indoors or patio. We got the Serrano cheese burger with fries and the elk burger with coleslaw. We got an IPA from the neighboring pub and it was delicious.

I finally had a chance to eat here, it’s my new favorite restaurant in Ouray. I had an elk burger with bacon, cheese, and a fried egg with a side of fries. I also ordered 2 donuts, a powdered sugar and cinnamon sugar one. Man, everything was so delicious. The burger was cooked well and tasted great. Their fries remind me of fair fries, that’s a good thing to me at least, and they have malt vinegar so yeah, they were great as well. I thought I’d give their donuts a try and wow, warm, soft, and just down right good. GET A DONUT!! Man I tell you what, that’s some darn good eatin right there. I like root beer and they have Mug on tap, but I’d prefer small batch, craft type root beer, just a personal preference, this is by no means a knock against Maggie’s. Whenever I’m in town, if they’re open, I’m eating there. I got in just before a rush of people, but they still seemed to get everyone’s order completed in a timely manner. Their prices aren’t bad. As you would expect in a small, touristy mountain town, prices are up there, but I believe it’s worth it. The food is great and the portions are fitting for the cost. The burgers are a good size, not some skimpy burger with some big fat bun and you get a shovel full of fries, think Five Guys lol. I was stuffed to the gills.

Intrigued by their best burger claim we decided this was the place to eat. We got the elk burger and it did not disappoint! One of the best if not the best burgers I’ve ever had! They even had gluten free buns which were a major plus. Big kudos to who picks those gluten free buns because most just fall apart, this one stayed and it wasn’t overloading the burger. The fries were perfectly cooked and crisp. The homemade bbq sauce is a must if you go! You won’t be disappointed!
