I've eaten at Maggie's before, at a couple of locations and love the Thai lettuce wraps. I was really looking forward to supporting them during this weird time. My BF and I arrived at approximately 2:00 on a Sunday and observed that they were pretty busy, but had outdoor seating set up. We walked into the bar area to see the hostess and get a table, but there was no one there. We approached the bar and the bartender asked if we wanted a seat. They had nice plexiglass dividers for the bar patrons and he was standing behind one at the tap. The bar, unfortunately was filthy- I think because the plexiglass made it hard to clean, but that wasn't the worst part ... the taps and the bartender was swarmed with small flies!!! We said "were waiting on the hostess" and stood awkwardly for a minute and I told my BF, let's go... and we left. Driving out of the parking lot, we noticed tons of garbage overflowing the dumpster and boxes everywhere. It was pretty bad. I said, maybe they are just overwhelmed- let's go to the Brookfield restaurant instead, it's on the way home.... to be con't... read more

Love this place, great bar menu and happy hour! I always sit at the bar, great vibes and great service. The menu is huge and overwhelming, but something for everyone! The wings here are GREAT! read more

Maggie McFly's was probably one of the worst dinners I have ever had. There were flies everywhere, you had to fight them for your meal. It was disgusting. It would have been a little better if the food was good, but it wasn't. I got the steak it was completely raw. When I asked them to fix it they overcooked it until it was dry. Even the sides were just absolutely awful. The staff weren't to nice about the issues. They argued with me about how the food was cooked. My family and I all had issues with are food, they all complained, but nothing was done for them. Nothing was refunded and nothing was done to make up for it. The people at Maggie McFly's could not have cared less that there food and service was awful. I was disappointed and haven't gone back since. Not to mention there way overpriced. I would recommend going somewhere else for your dinner. read more

Always a great place to eat with kiddos. Usually loud in there so no worries with kids. The foid is great too. SALADS are huge!

This was a favorite stopping ground for me wife as a teenager so we still frequently dine here. Our last visit was pretty standard. The salad and burger were typical. We dined with our 9 month old and it was great. The server was. Accommodating to the babies needs. The only negative was dessert. The ice. Cream sandwich chocolate chip cookie was 6.50 and it was smaller than a McDonald's hamburger. A disappointing ended to a meal. I do recommend this place for dining with kids or romantic night out. read more

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised returning to Maggie's after 10+ years of living out of the area. I had remembered the restaurant as sort of a cheap and greasy, low quality bar/pub akin to Ruby Tuesday or Chilis, so when my boyfriend suggested we have dinner there I was reluctant. I am glad I agreed to give the lace another chance because I was absolutely surprised and pleased by the quality of the food, the selection, and the wait staff. We were there on a Monday night so I wasn't expecting to to be crazy, I think that worked in their favor because we were given a little more attention than we might have on a busy night. I ordered a sandwich with turkey, brie, and cranberries with a side Cesar salad- all was fresh and delicious- especially the turkey which was obviously fresh and hand carved, not lunch meat! My boyfriend has a thick, juicy burger with a side of veggies and he devoured it. We were both pleased with the portion and food quality. My boyfriend also had two jack and coke's which were well mixed and NOT light on the jack. Overall we had a good experience and they have won me over- I would go back again, for sure. read more

Pretty awesome place to stop in. Passed by the place and told myself to try it. I did and I'm so happy with the place. The food was great and the staff was so friendly. It has a massive bar in the middle and such cool decorations. Also the outside is beautifully updated. They have like a 2 inch thick menu and I think you won't be disappointed by anything you get read more

This is my boyfriend and I's favorite place to go in the middlebury area. We usually sit at the bar and go during happy hour, but we have sat and dined for dinner a couple times. Let me start off by saying that my boyfriend has a strict diet and can't eat a lot of stuff. Their menu is HUGE but somehow still not too overwhelming and he always find something that he ends up loving. I love the atmosphere and all around 'homey vibe, for a bigger restaurant it has a way of making you feel cozy and comfortable. We have always had great service and I love the bar bites they offer. Prices are beyond reasonable for the quality and quantity of food you get. Will continue to keep coming back! Thanks Maggie's we love you guys! read more

Loved maggie mcflys! Food was amazing! Service was Great! It was just an all around great experience! My family really enjoyed this place! If your ever in middlebury,ct give this place a go! You will not be disappointed! P.s. "Bacon&egg burger" read more

Walk in with two friends, we sat at a table in the bar area. After waiting 15 mins for someone to come over and clear the table off, I got up and went to the bathroom to get paper towels and clean the table off myself. The waitstaff was a bit rude on top of everything! The food was ok! read more

Way way way too pricey. A corned beef and cabbage dinner @ 18.95.thats a cheap meal to make, it's not like its seafood or a good steak.

It's been 6 years since I moved from Waterbury, Ct to Los Angeles, and when I return for business I always make it a point to stop here. Love this place, love the food, it's got a very neighborhood-ish feel to it. Amy (the bartender) is just awesome...all servers/bartenders can learn something from her. read more

Maggie McFly's - Lobster Cobb salad - New American Near Me - Middlebury, Connecticut

Maggie's is great. The food is delicious. Their new menu is much less overwhelming than the one prior & the ambience is great as always. When you're upstairs however, it can be a little chilly with the large windows next to the seating tables. Other than that everything is great. Including the customer service. Great spot! read more

I expected better. On our first visit I got the Fish and Chips, and the fries were good, but the fish was bland and blah. Even salt and pepper didn't help much. On my next visit, I got the crab cakes, which were listed as having lump crab meat. Nope. Mine were mostly bread with a sliver of crab here and there and no crab flavor. Very disappointing. I left most of them. There will be no third strike for me. I'm done with Maggie McFly's read more

Maggie McFly's is a great restaurant with an interesting menu. I love how they source a lot of their food from local businesses and the menu provides some context. Drinks are great and wait stuff is always courteous. The are not really kids friendly and the drinks are over priced. Besides that, it a great franchise read more

Ugh. Grossest wings I've ever had, so mushy and fatty with no crunch and only like 3 kinds of wings to choose from even though the menu looks like the Webster dictionary. It's also really pricey for the quality. If the wings were worth eating I wouldn't care but I think I ate only 2 and gave away the rest. That is sad. The bartenders seemed nice so I didn't want to leave one star but believe me Maggie McFly's, your wings are nasty. read more

Love Maggie McFlys!!!!!!! How ever will never never use grub hub again to order from there ... I would of never ordered from Maggie's again if I didn't find door dash also delivers fro there ! read more

i had the buffalo chicken salad and it was great. The service was really good as well, the waiter and staff were very professional.

Used to come here alot when I went to college down the street. Very good wraps and drinks.

First time back in a while. I went to Maggie's a lot when it first opened years ago. Everything was good when they first opened. Over time, the food steadily dropped off and we stopped going. We were invited last minute to go to Maggie's by another couple and we figured why not give it another shot. We were happy we did. Everything turned out very good. The beer list was good. Our waitress was excellent. They had a decent crowd that night. Busy, but not crazy insane busy like it was when they first opened. You could hold a conversation without having to yell. I began with a nice oatmeal stout and a french onion soup. Excellent beer. The soup was good. Not the best I've ever had, but good. I'd order it again. Then I had the portabella ciabatta sandwich. Portabella mushroom, gouda cheese, avocado, tomato, red onion, mixed greens, garlic aioli, and balsamic reduction on a grilled ciabatta roll. Excellent sandwich. My wife had the Nodine's bacon cheeseburger. She also enjoyed her sandwich. Needless to say, I'm a fan again. read more

We like going to Maggie's for a few reasons, the most important reason of course is that it has a decent size gluten-free menu. It's also close by, decent quality food and there's never too much of a wait. I wouldn't suggest it if you are looking for a nice quiet dinner because it can get pretty loud but overall it's a very decent place, easy on and off the highway, good amount of parking in very large inside. Nice place to watch a ball game at the bar also read more

Everytime I've been here within the past few months, something has gone wrong. Whether it be that there was plastic wrap found in soup (the price of the soup was taken off the order, but still gross), fries dumped in my boyfriends lap, or when ordering Fettuccine Alfredo for take out there was no Alfredo sauce. I've visited a dozen or more times within the past few years and have been so disappointed especially within the past couple of months. read more

Everything here is slightly below average except the prices. We live close by so we really wanted to like this place and gave it multiple tries. We chalked up our past not so good experiences to off nights or just the staff having a bad day. Food quality is low, service is just eh, and prices are too high for what you get. Just seems that as a whole, the staff just doesn't really care. Better off going to some of the spots in Naugatuck like 66 Church, The Hub, or even The Station. read more

Had better service at the Maggie McFly's in southbury. Will not go back to the one in middlebury. I understand that restaurants get busy. But when we finished eating we spent about 20mins waiting to just see our waiter to ask for a box and the check. Either he was no where to be found or would go to other tables besides ours when we clearly looked finished, with plates stacked and all. Very disappointed. read more

Middlebury Conn. I really wanted to like this restaurant. It has great atmosphere but I was so disappointed in service and food. There was an unmanned hostess station when we arrived but we were happy to sit at the bar. My husband ordered a Budweiser and the bottle gushed out when bartender opened it/ cooler could be too cold. No big deal but it sprayed both of them. I ordered a margarita on the rocks. Surprised at small size of glass. We were ignored for a while but the bartender eventually came and took order- onion soup for hubby and a medium rare blue cheese hamburger with fries for me. Scalding hot soup but he waited to cool down. The bartender began to ask how my burger was then stopped because he realized I hadn't cut through it or tasted it. If he had returned, he would have noticed it was well done! Never came back to check because he must have glanced at my plate and saw it. I suffered through half and then decided to bring it home to dogs. Btw- smidgen of blue cheese sauce- 1/16 th inch thin tomato slice and thin thin onion . Fries were okay. Disappointed is putting it mildly because we stumbled on this restaurant and was hoping this could be a stop on the route to and from NYC. As we left, the bartenders were changing shifts. No one said thanks for coming. Etc. interesting enough, I heard the couple a few seats down as they were leaving- he asked her if she liked the place and she answered "Naw, it wasn't so good " and he agreed! My number 1 suggestion is to send ALL your chefs to Medium Rare hamburger school and learn how to tell when to remove hamburger from the fire! There is an overwhelming menu and I'm mad at myself for choosing a burger! Usually when you dedicate a page to burgers - it means you excel at them. Your menu was lengthy but I kind of like the homage to your suppliers. In the case of the meat supplier, he would be mortified what your cooks did to his product. Oh before I forget... please get your off site prep kitchen (building behind restaurant) a push cart because I witness 2 woman and I man walk back and forth carrying one small item at a time. By the end of their shift they'll be so exhausted you'll need another crew to do clean up! Good luck... read more

Sopped in for lunch today. Burger was one of the best I've had, big and cooked right. Nice selection of beers and overall great experience. read more

This was suggested to me by my daughter who goes to Post University. I took her there and her roommate. Food was delicious and prices are reasonable. Service was okay once we were seated. We waited awhile to be seated because they were super busy. Maybe we had a waiter that was overwhelmed or tired but I plan to go back because the food is good. I had pasta and my daughter had ribs. I don't remember what her friend got. On January 11 I went back with my daughter for lunch before I headed back to the airport. We were seated immediately and got our food right away. We had soup and then pasta and their clam chowder is delicious, as well as the butternut squash soup. I can honestly say this is my favorite place to go when I visit my daughter. I will definitely be going there each time I visit her. read more

Came here for the first time with my boyfriend and I was not impressed. It took about a good 3 mins or so for the hostess to show up to the podium and seat us. The place itself is not clean. It's winter time but there was a fly flying around in the area where we were seated which was near the kitchen. From where I was seating, I can see the kitchen and a garbage can that was overflowing with food. Waitress was nice. Appetizers were not that bad but overall the food is mediocre reminds me of diner food and is not good enough to want to revisit. read more

Maggie McFly's - Appetizer -- Onion Rings - New American Near Me - Middlebury, Connecticut

See all

When we ordered a kids soda was $1.75 but a kids strawberry lemon aid is $3.25 (twice the price) and prices are not listed for these drinks on the kids menu. Waitress did not tell us that this was even going to be an up charge. Second issue that day was the soup and salad special that my wife ordered looking at the lunch menu; but, received salad, from the kitchen, from the dinner menu instead, which was not on special for that price savings. Ask to see the manger about what she could do but only received a blank "don't care" look with a "I'll talk to the waitress" but no concern to ensure that I would be satisfied to come back. read more

Awesome gluten free menu!!! Burgers, fries, pizza, salads, pasta, wings.. and A ton more!! Dedicated GF friar! They were also accommodating about my dairy allergy. Very cool atmosphere too! They also use a lot of local food which is great! read more

I've come here a couple times. The bartenders and wait staff have always been nice. My drink orders have always been good. My dinners are always a hit and miss. I've had nachos here and had hair in my nachos (blonde hair and at the time I had green hair). They were polite and gave it to me for free. The food can be over pricey and the menu is a book so a little too big. If I want to eat out it's not here but I don't mind coming here now and then. read more

I was meeting someone mid way from Hartford to Danbury so I recommended this place from my previous visit at other locations but first review. It was easy off, easy on highway. The staff was friendly, urgent and place was very clean. The TVs and different channels was a plus too. Bathroom was well maintained. Nice job folks. read more

Last night was my second time at this location and let me tell you it's amazing !!!! Love the new fit menu, helps me stay on track even when I'm dining out.Service and food are supreme. If you want to experience great food and service in CT this is most definitely the spot !!! read more

We saw this and were drawn in because our baby is "Maggie". We ended up loving it! The food was great, from the app to the entrees. There's a plane (fullsized!) hanging in the middle of the restaurant, stained glass windows, and excellent service. We also really enjoyed their local made cheesecakes! read more

We've gone to Maggie McFly's three times since moving to Naugatuck in December. Each time, we've gone with a group larger than four people and each time, we've been pleased. The burgers are good - the meat is always cooked the way we like. Long list of beers and wines - great to try new things. Only once did we have a service "complaint". The restaurant was busy and one of the members in our group was brought the wrong meal. He then had to wait an extra half hour for his food. The manager came over to apologize and gave him the meal for free. We always bring our friends and family here when they come to visit. The cost is reasonable, service is friendly, and the atmosphere is fun. read more

Loud, uncomfortable seating and HUGE menu of bar food dressed up with promises of delious fare that just never really makes it. We have had the Miso salmon, the new England pot, stuffed lobsters ( in season) , steaks, coconut shrimp, pizza ( DO NOT GET THE PIZZA I have NO idea what they even pretend this to be) and if I could describe it in one word... Eh. The bar drinks are good, ordered a lighted martini which sadly came with no light and the desserts are store bought and again fail to deliver. You pay a lot for subpar food...do yourself fav and skip it if you can. read more

Walked in and it took a little bit for a hostess to sit me and my girlfriend. As we are walking to be seated another couple stoped the hostess to complain about their dish. Not a good first impression. We sat out side which is a nice option. All of the food we order was off their special Octoberfest menu. The drinks were really good and their food was tasty. However service was a bit slow. Despite not being too busy. read more

Stopped in for a meal because I heard all about this place and was not impressed in the slightest by the food or drinks. I ordered a pasta dish and specifically said no onions, and there were for sure some onions in there, enough to fill a small plate to be exact. The drinks were also expensive for no reason and did not have a good taste. The only positive was the wait staff who were nice, but don't believe I'll be returning. read more

Menu has so many options! I visited Wednesday night it wasn't too busy. Sat at the bar, there were two bar tenders working. I started with a margarita flight and was very pleased with the flavors. I then ordered the clam chowder to start and it was phenomenal! For my main meal I chose the calamari... it was extremely disappointing. No flavor and definitely over fried. read more

The menu is gigantic. You can find food of nearly any variety here, including American traditional, Italian, and even Chinese! I would most strongly recommend the American traditional dishes, such as the pot roast or the steak. All their ingredients are locally sourced and taste amazing for an extremely fair price. Portions are large so you won't go hungry, and sides are decent as well. There is an amazing bar on the first floor framed by palm tree decorations, string lights, and a model airplane suspended from the ceiling. The decorations alone are pretty awesome, and the ambiance reflects that of a homey, vintage night. If you have any problems with your food, the staff are incredibly nice and will immediately come and attempt to help you. The place has gotten quite popular over recent years, so sometimes when the restaurant is crowded service may take a while to respond, but definitely not longer than what is expected of a restaurant on a busy Friday or Saturday. I've never waited longer than half an hour to get what I ordered, and I have eaten here dozens of times in the past year. read more
