Elite Event: Mad MenU Happy Hour at Maggie’s Farm

First off, big shout-​out to Elsa and her super team for throwing this fun bash! And another shout-​out to Maggie’s Farm so that we could cut loose for a few hours.
Out of all the hors d’oeuvres that were brought out to us, my favorite was definitely the pecan covered popcorn. The signature drink, gin martinis with orange bitters, was wayyyy to strong for me so I happily stuck with my trusty ice water. I almost felt bad for not caring for the drink, but as another reviewer mentioned, plenty of drink tickets left behind so I wasn’t alone in that boat!
I see myself coming back here to try other things on the menu. I didn’t try it but that mojito was calling my name from the menu. Super cool atmosphere and friendly staff. So much fun!

I always love the events Elsa and her team put on, and this time they paired with one of the hottest restaurants in the city. The food was great, and the custom made cocktails for us were a nice touch. We got learn about the Maggie’s Farm mission, and mingle with some other of the Unilocal Elite, all the while supporting a great place. The deviled eggs, hamburgers, cucumbers, and popcorn gave us a taste of the great fare that they have on the menu. I need to go back and have some more of their great food!
I like the timely Mad Men theme that had some great games and even better dresses.
Thanks Elsa!

It had been a while sice my last visit to the «Farm» but this was a great opportunity to reconnect with their unique take on farm-​to-​table cuisine. The deviled eggs were definitely the highlight for me along with the popcorn. The cheeseburgers themselves were tasty and had a great consistency though I would have preferred a softer bun. The house-​made martinis also provided a nice complement to the fine food. The restaurant staff and bartenders were great and the games and fun made the evening special. All hail to Elsa, the best Unilocal community leader!

Maggies Farm has been on my bucket list for quite some time, and when I found out that this months Elite Event was here, I so had to jump on it. And I have a special place in my heart for farm to table concept restaurants. What I really like about this place is that it’s small and quaint and the staff is very upbeat and pleasant. I really enjoyed the sliders and the deviled eggs. The cocktail of the night was a little on the strong side, but you can tell they utilize fresh ingredients. I will be returning for either brunch or dinner
Overall I always have a great time at Elite events, gives me a chance to catch up with old friends and meet new Elites. Looking forward for the next event

This was my first Unilocal event and I really enjoyed it. The location was somewhere I had never been and was really cute and quaint. The beef sliders were really good and I enjoyed the popcorn. The games were fun and everyone was really friendly.

This was a fun event, I like Maggie’s Farm, especially for brunch try it out, you wont regret it. Anyhow, the event was planned well, kudos to Elsa and company, thanks also for adding my plus 1 bro. The sliders were great, i am a fan of deviled eggs so that was good. The gin drink wasnt my cup of tea, but i bought a huge a$$ mojito. Yeah that was happening. Anyway thanks to MF for their hospitality, will come back from brunch after my trip.

Maggie’s Farm is a farm to table concept restaurant. On Sunday’s they have brunch and even recognize those in the restaurant industry with specials.
This was my first trip to MF’s. It’s across the street from Safeway (where I secretly parked) and has a good decorating vibe of a house that has been converted to accommodate the partying souls of Baltimore. Street parking can be a wee bit of an adventure but I’m sure you’ll think of something clever to avoid a ticket: O)
The deviled eggs were sinful; I ate a few just so I could try to decipher what was in them that made them so tasty. I also kept a hand full of popcorn and the stylish cucumber slices with embellishment (that’s just my fancy way of saying I couldn’t figure out what the topping was… lol). The fashions, the name tags that bore pictures of the icons from the 50’s & 60’s were a smash. An excellent opportunity to rub elbows with my fellow Elites and get to know new people. I must say that with each Unilocal event I attend I meet more interesting people.
The drink to boast about is the 32oz mojito in a mason jar. Can you say designated driver needed? I had the gin martini with orange bitters, it was potent!
Their menu rotates seasonally with the availability of items. I like this idea so that the menu options are varied and it makes you want to come back and try that next daring dish.

Fun event! It was amazing that Maggie’s farm closed down their entire back dining room for us. The sliders were so good and perfectly cooked to medium. I also loved the popcorn. The ambiance in there was cozy. I can’t wAit to go back for dinner and try the regular menu!
The mad men theme was super clever. I also liked the games and that we were broken into groups based on our name tags. What a fun way to meet other elites!
Thanks to everyone for your hard work putting this event together!

This was such a fun event! I loved the Mad Men theme and Maggie’s Farm is a really nice location. I’ll definitely need to go back for dinner/​brunch sometime!
The mini sliders were cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious. I also enjoyed the popcorn. I’m not a gin fan so the drink special wasn’t my favorite, but the bartenders were still great and appeared to be mixing up some awesome cocktails for those who ordered off the normal drink menu.
I also really appreciated the work the Unilocal committee put into planning ice breakers and activities for the event. The games were fun and were a great way to meet other elites.

Fun! Fun! Fun!
I always seem to have more fun when there is themed dressing involved!
A Very fun and lively event at a cool place.
Thanks to Maggie’s Farm for providing the lite bites. MF provided a small spread that consisted of Beef Sliders (good, I would’ve liked some ketchup or mustard), Deviled eggs (great), Cucumber w/​cheese? (not my cup of tea) and Pecan and Butter topped popcorn (awesome). They also provided us with a very strong gin martini with orange bitters. Funny fact: The signature drink had to be hella strong for some because I’ve never seen so many drink tickets left unused. LOL!!!
I really liked the interactivity of the group contest, as well as the individual pop culture activity.
I would’ve loved a small parade of all the various Mad Men inspired costumes.
Overall a great event. Can’t wait to see what’s in store for May!

This was my first Unilocal event and I have to say that it lived upto my expectations. It was really nice of Maggie’s farm to open their entire section for the event. I loved the retro theme of the event. The event was very well planned whether it be warm décor or ice breaker games or themed giveaways. Since I was new elite, teaming game was fun way for me to get to know other elites. My favorite part of the evening was Elsa’s dress and the portrait of the guy with mustache drawn over it: P
The cucumber sliders were awesome with the light and perfectly spiced topping and so was the pecan popcorn. I wasn’t big fan of the drink because it was too strong for me but bartender was very friendly and accommodating.
I would definitely go back to Maggie’s farm to try their full menu and try some fruity cocktails next time.

Another great Elite event! I truly appreciate all the hard work done by Maggie’s Farm to invite us and the wonderful drinks and appetizers. The appetizers were great especially the deviled eggs and sliders. I am from the South where deviled eggs in my house were almost guaranteed at every family dinner or event and MF brought back memories. They were outstanding. The sliders were great and I thank them for not overcooking them as many places do. If the appetizers were this good I cant wait to try their full meals especially their brunch. Thank you Elite events as I would never have found this gem without it.
MF is very intriguing to me as it seems they will offer new additions to the menu as the seasons change and they utilize locally available items to populate their menu. Now for those that know me know that I enjoy my drinks but in moderation. The drink menu is extensive and and they use fresh ingredients. How many times have you gone to a place and ordered a drink and they use some pre-​made mix in their drinks? Not these guys as they used only fresh limes, lemons, oranges, grapefruit and many other examples to make their drinks tasty and fresh. This is a perfect place to have a few drinks in a cozy setting.
The staff is small but the impression they leave on you is very big and lasting. MF stands for Maggie’s Farms but they are Mad Fabulous to me.

Had a great time last night! I had never been to Maggie’s Farm before, but it was a intimate space and had a great vibe to it. MF closed down for the night so we had the whole back dining room/​bar to ourselves.
We started off with some light bites — burger sliders, pecan popcorn, cucumbers with cheese and deviled eggs. Those sliders were goooood. I had to stop myself from pigging out on them! And the signature drinks for the night were gin martinis with orange bitters. They were a bit strong for my taste, but one of the bartenders happily added some orange juice into my drink to take away some of the bite.
We played a fun group game to figure out slogans from back in the day. Too bad my team, Jimi Hendrix, was the only one that didn’t end up in the 6-​way tie LOL. And then we played another game to match iconic celebrities’ real names and their stage names. Dang, this was hard hahah! But all fun!
Heard the brunch was amazing, so I’ll be sure to stop by next time I find myself in the area! Thanks Elsa and team for a great night! Can’t wait for the next Elite event!

My sister and I loved this event! We met some great people and the staff, especially Matthew Weaver, GM and bartender for the night.
The lite bites were awesome, especially the sliders but Maggie’s really shined for me at the bar! Matthew had a great knowledge… talking booze with him was like speaking with an expert chef. He crafted a Manhattan to my new buddy Ken’s tastes and made us a quick inexpensive but delicious whiskey shooter out bourbon, ginger syrup, and lime juice.
I can’t wait to come back to enjoy the full Maggie’s Farm experience!

Thank you to the Unilocal committee for organizing another awesome event! I loved the retro theme and the décor of Maggie’s Farm was perfect for this. It was fun to play the games and it was a great way to meet new people. Although I didn’t know much 60s trivia, it was still fun trying. A huge thank you to Maggie’s Farm for hosting us and providing really good food. the sliders were very flavorful and I loved the popcorn!
