Have you sipped a Blueberry Boulevardier at Grackle? Batching in house & aging the goods in charred oak barrels adds a deep, smoky complexity to this lovely cocktail. A guest favorite here in Maple Grove… cheers!🥃

We’re so excited to partner with a Maple Grove HS student leader as she guides local elementary school students through an exciting year of “Where in the World is Rocky Raccoon?”🕵️

Throughout the school year, Rush Creek Elementary students will follow the adventures of Rocky Raccoon, using clues to figure out which country Rocky is visiting… with opportunities to win prizes along the way!🏆

Big high fives to our local public schools & the creative, dedicated students who attend them. Can’t wait to see the Rush Creek students in house at Grackle & learn about Rocky’s journey this year!🌎🦝

“Why Grackle?”🐦‍⬛

Listen, we get it: they’re not exactly anyone’s favorite bird. 👀

Grandma Margie & her cafe sparked our love of restaurants & hospitality. We opened a restaurant in 2020, named it Margie’s, and clawed our way through some really tough times, with the support of our awesome community🤝 - and that awesome grandma!🥹

When we had the opportunity to open a new spot in Maple Grove, our vision was aesthetically a little different… but community building was still the primary mission. 🌱

Grackle winks at the annual Winthrop celebration that brought Grandma Margie’s small town together year after year, while welcoming an entirely different version of community in this bustling suburb. Join us - take a peek at our lobby art, wander over to the bar, or settle under the big greens with a bunch of friends… let’s keep the party rockin’, Maple Grove. 🍁🫶

With joy & love, Becky & Justin❤️ *and our amazing kids, who didn’t exactly get a choice, but are definitely riding this roller coaster with us!
