The Cottage On Main - Duluth

First time here. Sunday at 12:30 thought it was closed but met an employee in the parking lot who told us to go right in. Pleasantly greeted by the host, the atmosphere felt like we stepped back in time but felt like a great place to go after church with family. We tried the quiche and the chicken salad croissant which were both perfect portion size and tasted good.

Absolutely incredible. Came here alone for Sunday brunch today and was floored at the quality of the food. Fresh hand squeezed orange juice for the mimosas, hot buttery and crisp scones, creamy fresh baked potato soup. Nothing is synthetic or comes in a bag. You can tell everything is fresh and the ingredients are respected. One of the best dining experiences I’ve had, and I get around!! Came here on a whim and was not disappointed.

I had planned a special 90th birthday luncheon for a friend. I verified the reservation with Magnolia Cottage in July for September 7th. I sent out invitations and was looking forward to honoring this sweet lady. I had email confirmation of everything, then received an email two weeks before the gathering that they would no longer be able to honor my reservation as they had a private event. Please be careful making a reservation here as it may not always be honored and you may not get much advance notice. I would NOT recommend Magnolia Cottage.

I've been here recently and I really love the atmosphere! The owner was really nice to us too; she went out of her way to treat us very kindly even though it was really busy!

The food was delicious and the service from the server was excellent. The problem is the new owner of the restaurant. I hear her yelling at the staff and saying awful things. The past owner NEVER disrespected the staff and now it’s not the same. It feels like they don’t actually have it together as well cause of the way the managers ran after staff and didn’t even know their own menu to where there was constant miscommunication between me and my server. All food was great but honestly disappointed in the overall experience
