Big, DELICIOUS food. Went for breakfast. Ordered one egg & bacon (comes w/hashbrowns and either a biscuit or toast). Chose biscuit with a side of gravy to share w/husband. The plate they brought me was FULL of food. And TWO eggs, not one. My husband could not finish his omelette w/what comes on plate, and that's a FIRST. It was... More

Heard this was a great breakfast spot and I certainly was not disappointed. Scromlettes was something new for us to try..... My boyfriend devoured his whole I dented mine eating barely half! Taste was wonderful- portions are huge so you could even share. Don't worry- my leftovers didn't go to waste. My man enjoyed his scromlette so much that he... More

Some days it seems like olde McGills is the only place open in town. The food is good, the prices are affordable. The waitresses are short spoken and always in a rush. Don't take the front window table on a cold day.

Stopped in for lunch. Good service, great burger and fries. We sat next to the door thinking it would be good for people watching. It was... and it was also cold everytime the door opened.

great place for breakfast downtown on elk st. Usually crowded, especially if an event is scheduled downtown. Good traditional type breakfasts;; good value for the money.

This past Monday morning (12-3-12) my wife went to McGills in CB for breakfast. We have been there before and enjoyed it but today was very different. She walked in and was invited by the gal behind the counter to sit down at a 2-top against the wall, between 2 other sets of customers. She waited for a while, getting... More

We were recently in Crested Butte for three days, and had breakfast at McGill's all three mornings. Sensational French toast, crisp bacon, breakfast burrito, heuvos rancheros....Our friend said that the eggs Benedict, recommended by a local, was a bit too citrusy for his taste, but looked perfect. Our waitress was very friendly, very attentive and helpful, and never let our... More

As of tomorrow, I will have lived for 61 years. That means I've eaten lots of breakfasts. Yesterday, my wife and I had what was probably the best breakfast ever...at McGill's in Crested Butte, Colorado. I had the salmon benedict (like eggs benedict, but with smoked salmon in place of the Canadian Bacon), hash browns, and their Crispy French Toast.... More
