How It All Began
Back in December 2021—yep, right in the wild tail end of a pandemic—Tai Serna and Anthony Silvestri decided to take a leap of faith (or maybe just a big gulp).
What started as a spark of creativity and courage
quickly turned into Magpie’s Den & Pen: a cozy, small-town hangout built for good food, strong drinks, and even better company.
Tai had a decade behind the bar, a knack for design, and the kind of leadership that turns chaos into charm. Anthony brought the carpenter’s craft, a heart for hospitality, and a lifetime of hands-on experience. Together, they mixed sawdust with shaker tins and built something special—a place where hard work meets heart, and every detail feels a little bit handmade.
Never stop dreaming
What began as a spark of creativity and courage grew into Magpie’s Den & Pen—a cozy, small-town hangout built for good food, strong drinks, and even better company. But we’re just getting started. We believe a great space should keep evolving—growing, improving, and dreaming right alongside the community it serves. From new menu ideas to fresh experiences in the Den and the Pen, we’re always working to keep things lively, local, and a little unexpected.
