Crema's Take

The Maple Counter Cafe is worth the drive for their legendary apple pancake alone—a massive, impossibly fluffy skillet pancake that's become the stuff of local legend. This family-owned spot trades fancy coffee for generational recipes and a warm, quirky charm that makes you feel like you're eating breakfast at a beloved relative's house, complete with nostalgic memorabilia to take home. Plan for a wait during peak hours, but the outstanding eggs and pancakes justify every minute.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

I write this while in the daze of a happy food coma. Arrived at 11:45 am on a Friday and it was busy enough to be bustling but not so busy that it required a wait. I ordered a vegan skillet (It's not on the menu, you gotta ask for the secret vegan options). It was so good.…
