Their menu has what you'd expect from a classic diner, prices are cheap, and service is quick! We got the Country Style Eggs and Patty Melt. Both lacked basic seasonings like salt & pepper. If I was rating off the food alone, I'd give it a 3/5. The home fries in the Country Style Eggs could've been crispier and adding hot sauce definitely saved this a bit. The biscuit we got with it was homemade and so delicious. It was warm, buttery, and satisfying. The Patty Melt was a bit dry and desperately needed a sauce. I used ketchup and asked for pickles which helped. The rye bread was surprisingly not dry and grilled nicely with butter. It was definitely a heavy meal but we needed it after a long drive. It's not the kind of place where you'll have an amazing meal but it'll do the job at a super affordable price.

You know you're close when your phone goes into SOS mode and you fully commit to pancakes & maple syrup as a survival plan! I learned something new on this visit. We were initially shown to a table, but since only 3 of our 4 party members had arrived, we were asked to return to the lobby until everyone was present. The server assured us that once our fourth arrived, we'd be seated with the next available table, and that's exactly what happened. It gave us a few extra moments to watch pancakes methodically and continuously be poured, flipped and served from the griddle. We had the chance to sit in the original dining room, which features beautiful hand-painted murals. The booth cushions are well worn from years of use, adding to the charm and nostalgia of the space. The room itself felt bright, warm, and inviting. Service from Michelle was prompt and friendly, even with the steady pace of the restaurant. We ordered three AYCE pancake and sausage plates, coffees, a kids' pancake, and a maple milkshake. Pro tip: skip sugar and add maple syrup to your coffee. Trust me! Whether you're visiting with a few family members or bringing a large group, the Maple Tree Inn is a place full of memories, tradition, and perfectly maple-infused breakfasts. Remember to bring along cash or a check since digital payment is not an option. And mark your calendar for next season because they are only open for 2 months each year between February through April, while the sap is flowing. Looking forward to their 65th season next year in 2027!

The overall experience was underwhelming for the price (but that's understandable for the issues in the country atm). Because it was a special occasion and it happened to be friday, I treated myself to the fish fry (I usually avoid it since my husband hates the smell of seafood). It was an impressively sized piece of fish with a teensy cup of tartar sauce. It was then that I realized I hadn't asked if they used sweet or dill pickles in their sauce. I tasted it, it was sweet (ugh!), so I asked for some malt vinegar to try and substitute flavor. I really tried to eat and enjoy my meal, I used the vinegar, as much as I could squeeze out of the lemon and eventually a sprinkle of salt to give it some vibrancy. The problem was, without a good sauce, I couldn't get over how unpleasant the batter was and how flavorless the fish was (plus the inner layer of the batter was also unpleasant mushy). Eventually (about four bites in, the piece of fish is still larger than my plate), my husband remarks that there is no reason for me to force myself to choke down what I found truly disgusting. I relent and give the waitress my plate, explaining I just can't eat it and I don't have an appetite now for any replacement so I'll just wait for everyone else to finish. All of that wasn't even the main issue. After we get our check, I see a $11.Something charge I didnt understand. I ask for clarification by the older lady running checkout. It turns out it wasn't "$11" but a poorly written "4" that was the addon for my daughter's fries. (Wasn't aware that a $12 sandwich didn't come with fries for less than almost $5 but, I guess that's our bad for not checking the menu when the waitress asked if she wanted fries with it...fries that were just previously frozen blah things with no seasoning that my daughter didn't even eat, but again, that's a cost of going out I guess?) Finally, I gently bring up asking about some sort of discount off my $15+ meal as I could not eat the entree. I never asked for it to be comped, I opened with a suggestion of a discount because I had eaten the side of fruit and mashed potatoes. The lady acted as if I was insulting her and/or trying to score a free meal. She explained how it wasn't their fault if I didn't like the taste of their tartar sauce. I was confused and flabbergasted for a moment. Admittedly, I didn't point out how I had struggled to attempt to eat the fish despite the tartar sauce issue and still couldn't stomach it. I doubt it would have mattered, she likely would have said it was my fault because it wouldn't be the resturant's problem I physically couldn't choke down their nasty breading. I was so upset that my rare treat had turned out this way and put a rain cloud over the rest of my day in Cuba. Because I have neurological problems and issues with confrontation, I couldn't think clearly or argue after essentially being told it wasn't the resturant's responsibility that I was "too picky". So I just asked my husband to pay quickly and hurried out before I started to cry in the resturant. I suppose this could be my fault for not fully explaining how disgusting I found their food, but I thought that would be impolite feedback surrounded by customers. The tartar sauce (which the 1/3 of a shotglass size of dip wouldn't have even been appropriate for the size of fish even if it hadn't been sweet pickles) seemed a more polite excuse than saying their breading and fish was physically inedible. I didn't try to have it replaced or cause a scene, yet I still feel like I was being treated like I was trying to "get one over" on them. The salted caramel milkshake was very tasty tho?
