I had dinner here towards the end of the night and ate outside. It's food, it's fast, what more can I say? Burger is $7 and patty melt is $8. Other items on the menu includes different types of burgers, hotdog, sandwiches, grilled cheese, chicken nuggets, vegan burger, and onion rings. All menu items comes with french fries or coleslaw. ....| \ _ , , , - - , , _ , .../ , ` . - ' ` ' . _ \ - ; ; ; , _ ..| , a - ) ) _ . ; .

The food was so delicious! Great flavor and the fries were amazing! The condiment bar was a nice option. Service was pretty quick given how packed it was. read more

Good lunch spot!!! Walked in and were treated royally. Love the retro posters on the wall

Delicious burgers, interesting vibe, and friendly Ouray style presentation. Write on the ceiling or walls as a memento?

Maggie, I've been such a fool. I hope you can forgive me. Over the years, I've driven by you at least 100 times and eaten elsewhere on about a quarter of those. Silly me. I drove down Corkscrew Gulch, landing in Ouray for the first time this year and found myself ravenous at 2pm. I was in the mood for a beer as well, and the thought of either of the town's brewpubs did nothing for me. What's the solution? Maggie's Kitchen, which happens to share a patio with the Ourayle House. I've heard about these burgers for years, but something always sounded better. Live and learn. A quick stroll to the back led me to the counter where I ordered a green chile cheeseburger and fries. Within minutes, I was in burger heaven out on the patio. I didn't even have time to grab a beer! From the first bite to the last, this burger overwhelmed me with its simple, honest quality and flavor. Beer would only take away from the experience, so I did without until my meal was done. Maggie's offers no frills, but exceptional quality and taste. You can't beat the view from their patio, and when tourists clog the street, the people watching only adds to the experience. read more

It's a riot to write your name right on the wall as you sit right down for righteous hamburger.

AMAZING!!! We had Black Bean Burgers that were some of the best we've ever had!! Recommended to us by a local.....they knew what they were talking about!! read more

We came up to Ouray from Montrose to visit the kitchen store and grab some lunch. There aren't many places open this time of year, but I'm glad that Maggie's was open! We all had the patty melts and they were amazing. The burgers were juice and the fries were freshly made. Don't let the decor question your decision to eat here...I'm not a big fan of the ink covered walls, but obviously other people like drawing all over the walls, ceilings, lights, and tables. Another bonus about Maggie's are their prices. Very reasonable for the food they serve. read more

We ate two days in a row at Maggies. The Burgers are bigger than life and so are the orders of Onion rings. Amazing food and a real mountain town atmosphere. You can sit out on the veranda at a table or the long bar facing the street looking up at the majestic mountains. They are constantly busy and never stop. Had Elk burger and the Chile burger. Both amazing. They are a local restaurant and not a chain. A must if you are in Ouray. read more

My boyfriend and I were in town for 5 days and he was craving a cheeseburger so we called ahead to make sure they were still open we got there just in time as we were the last to be served. After eating at a couple of the other restaurants in Ouray this is by far the best food in town. The burgers were cooked to perfection and the coleslaw and french fries were very delicious. The best part of the french fries was that they have the skin on them and the coleslaw wasn't too sweet. So if you're looking for a delicious burger I highly recommend coming here just make sure you call ahead in the evening time they close kind of early. read more

This is a strange eatery but with good food. Their specialty is burgers which are hand pressed and made to order... in addition to the traditional burger (only Swiss or American if you want cheese) they had about 12 different combination burgers, like bacon, mushroom, etc and also both elk and bison burgers or Portobello mushroom patty. The burgers were cooked as ordered medium rare on toasted buns. Condiments including ketchup, mustard, mayo, pickles,lettuce and onions are on a self serve table. The fresh cut fries were a bit skimpy and just ok... I really liked the batter dipped onion rings. The coleslaw was also good if you liked it a touch sweet and tangy. As to the strange atmosphere... every square inch of the walls, tables,chairs and even ceiling are covered with people's names, comments, etc. which is sort of cute but makes three place look really grimy. read more

You know the burger is good when you have to go to the bathroom and wash your greasy fingers after! We went after a long day of hiking and were pleased to find this seemingly hole-in-the-wall place. One side kitchen, one side brewery, all delicious. Markers were provided to help "decorate" the inside. You can add your name, insignia or other identifying mark on the wall, table, ceiling or wherever there's open space. Markers are provided to patrons (so, I'm assuming you're encouraged to tap into your creative side). My burger was severed on a lid of a barrel, and it was so impressive. Words don't do it justice, so I added a picture. This definitely hits a sweet spot for a truly delicious burger. The BLT was amazing, too!! read more

Had the Patty melt and daughter had biscuits and gravy, both were outstanding, French fries are home made to perfection. I thought the patty melt was a slight bit salty, that's the reason for only 4 stars, everything else, including the service and vibe, are 5 stars! read more

This isn't fine dining, but it is good food. You line up at the window, order your burger or sandwich and it is ready very fast. I had the mushroom cheese burger and it was delicious. It comes with fries or coleslaw, I had fries, also delicious. They sell beer next door, so you can have a beer with your burger. read more

Exceptional Cheeseburger! Highly recommend this establishment! We placed an order to go over the phone and it was ready within minutes. Great service and a delicious meal! read more

One of my favorite places in Ouray. I'd say the best hamburger in town. Onion rings are also excellent.

This is an informal burger joint, that should also be known for their catfish! It was a delicious fillet that came out blazing hot and crispy. The informal vibe was perfect for our late lunch. The setting was a bit different and that there were three large booths, and two large family-style tables, and one bar where the guests were to sit. There is a condiment bar as well. The patio also had picnic tables for seating. The walls and ceiling are covered in signatures from patrons. After ordering we chose a huge table that could have set 10 to 12 people. The order was ready and called out by name, "Cindy Lou who, Cindy Crawford, Cindy Lauper"... By that time I was smiling and laughing on the way to get my fish! My husbands' black bean burger was also very good! read more

Maggie's is a must! My husband ordered the Hayden's 420 burger and I had the Black Bean Veggie Burger. The Hayden burger comes with half an order of onion rings on it plus fries as the side; we ordered extra onion rings not knowing his burger was going to be stacked with them! The Veggie Burger is DELICIOUS! I got it with American cheese. Hands down the best Black Bean Burger I've ever had (sometimes those can be really hit or miss) and is housemade. The fries and onion rings are so crispy and delicious but not greasy at all. It's also worth popping into Ourayle Brewing Co next door for a beer read more

Love reading the "writings on the wall" inside the joint, it makes waiting for your made-to-order meals so much more pleasant. Be prepared to fight for the restrooms though... There's a big patio where I recommend taking your food to so you can flaunt it at the tourists passing by on the street! Everything we got was good even though we didn't realize we could help ourselves to condiments and veggies (sort of a semi-BOY burgers feat) half way through the meal... But the chicken burger/sandwich didn't need any help from the additional toppings since the cheese they use was SO flavorful. I loved the little girl (grand-daughter of owner Maggie?) who came around checking on every table to see diners were doing OK, so cute~ read more

Went on vacation in Ouray for a couple days. Was told by multiple stores in town that Maggies Kitchen was the place to go for a great burger. Tried to go for lunch. They were supposed to open at 11. We went a little after 1130 and they were still closed. Waited til the next day for dinner and they were open. They seem to be the only place in town with pepsi. The signs on the outside seemed very straight and somewhat rude "if your mask os not covering your nose, we will not serve you". I was feeling like i was being yelled at before even going inside to order. When we walked in and were looking at the menu, one of the servers were very rude. Not letting me get a chance to talk before she walked away. Another server was kind enough to take our order. We ordered a cheeseburger with fries and a grilled cheese and two dr peppers (which were cans) We told the server we were going to sit in the back which was up the stairs and outside in the yard. Our food was brought to us by the server that had walked away originally and nothin was said like enjoy, or here you go etc. just gave us the tray and walked back in the building. Now to the "best burger in town!" I was not impressed at all. Honestly tasted like a frozen burgee you get at the store. Nothing big and juicy like i was expecting and hoping for. I can make a better burger at home. The fries....there was barely any flavor to them. I didn't even eat half of them. I dont recommend maggies. The Full Tilt Saloon directly across the street had a way better burger and way better service! And i vote them for best burger in town! When we were ready to leave, we were not allowed to go back down the stairs and out the way we came in. We had to go down the alley in the back and around the block. Again, felt a little offended by that. Just not a friendly place! read more

This place is awesome. We are a family of four from NJ that travelled to the Ouray area for the first time and just stumbled across this spot. The decor is a bit questionable but the food was amazing and the folks working there were super friendly. We all had burgers that were really, really good. The quality of the meat was just way above what we would have expected and the taste was amazing. I had the Serrano burger and am still thinking about it a week later. Highly, highly recommend having a meal here. Definitely worth it. read more

Can a "hole in the wall" restaurant be on main street? I guess so! After exploring lovely Ouray main street we stopped by Maggie's knowing that it's dog friendly. They told us that if we want we could sit on their back porch where the view of the mountains is the best. So we walked around the block to the back of the restaurant to their back patio. We obviously couldn't walk through the restaurant to get to the patio because of our dog. We sat down at a picnic table and had a beautiful view of the mountains to the west. It was significantly quieter in the back compared to the front porch that was packed with people. We ordered the Green Chili Burger & Mushroom Swiss Burger and fries. We both very much enjoyed our meals and our dog enjoyed chewing on a stick he found under the table. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience here and would definitely come back next time we're in Ouray. read more

This place is SUPER busy and it takes a bit of time to get a takeout order but the food is good and the staff are nice.

Fantastic burgers here! I got a lettuce wrap because, I'm a keto-ahol, and even without the meat being hugged by delicious carbs...it was still one of the better burgers I've had! Standout feature: the serrano burgers. They use serranos, unlike everyone else that uses jalepenos. They are fresh, and they are HOT. You probably can't handle them, but I can. Oh, and you order them here, and have them delivered next-door...where there's beer. Burgers and beer, does it get much better? (It probably does, pizza and beer really takes it up a notch...but maybe that's just because I'm carb-deprived...) read more

Rolling into town the only request from my son was that we tried this place out, his buddy said it was the best thing he'd ever eaten. Stopped by the first day and for some reason they were closed, almost broke our hearts. Came back the next day for lunch and all 6 of us ordered different things - and every single person absolutely loved it. I got the Green Chile burger and it's everything I knew it could be. Melted in my mouth and when it was over I was left sad.... Wife had the Mushroom burger, delicious. Our son's friend had some burger with like a foot of onion rings on it...he ate it all, to be 16 again... All of us ate everything and it was amazing. Even my son who only gets a plain cheeseburger with ketchup. Weirdo. read more

If you're looking for a quick juicy burger in Ouray, you found it! The staff is quick and efficient, but the burger tastes like it was made with love. I would definitely stop by Maggie's again when I'm in Ouray. read more

First off, dine-in was not an option, only take out in a brown bag. Second off, price point was too high: $11.50/burger + side with option to add a drink for $1. We ordered 2 bacon cheese burgers + fries and macaroni salad as sides, onion rings and a can of pepsi - totaling about $30 = jeepers batman!! The down side to take out is that I was not able to experience the great crispy fries that other reviewers raved about. My order of fires were at the very bottom of the to-go bag, leaving things oily and soggy. Macaroni salad is a definite pass next time because it wasn't anything great. The burger, however, was super juicy, flavorful and generous in portion. The lettuce tomato and onions are all packed separate in a zip lock bag to add to one's liking. I would like to dine at Maggie's again, but as dine-in the next time I'm in town. read more

I love finding really awesome local eats. You know, the affordable, excellent quality that locals know and love in tourist towns. Maggie's Kitchen is exactly this kind of wonderful food in a down he, local atmosphere. There's no lack of ritzy, tourist trap restaurants in Ouray, but Maggie's stands out as being the perfect locals hangout. You can eat inside, or out on the deck and watch the people go by. The food here is wonderful! Hot, fresh, and made to order! I had a Buffalo burger, fries, and coleslaw that was excellent! I asked for medium rare and got exactly that, a really tasty, hot, fresh burger, and excellent hand cut fries! The Coleslaw was just the right balance of sweet and I chased it all down with a unsweetened tea, half lemonade drink. It was the perfect meal! I will very happily eat there again every chance I get! read more

Giving this a 5 star despite the soggy lettuce because the burgers were just phenomenal. Hot, made to order, and fabulous. . Burgers are huge and Serrano bacon cheeseburger hit the spot. Just need to find a better way to deliver the lettuce, tomatoes and pickles on the side. read more

Maggies kitchen dishes out top notch food and service. I simply had the most fantastic Reuben sandwich I've EVER eaten in my life. Seriously. They also have fantastic, crispy French fries, made to order, served so hot right out of the fryer. They have a standard menu of burgers and sandwiches and they also serve up a pretty fantastic breakfast too. Homemade donuts that brought me to tears when I was eating them. Glazed and chocolate glazed or cinnamon sugar. I've never eaten a donut so insanely good. If you're ever in Ouray, Colorado, let Maggies kitchen be your first stop for very satisfying food fare. The only thing you'll be able to think about after you leave is when you can return. read more
