Sweet Maple is a fun, buzzy brunch spot with a relaxed vibe and food that's as Instagram-worthy as it is tasty. From the second you walk in (or set your name on the list), you can tell this place takes its breakfast and lunch offerings seriously. The Millionaire's Bacon is iconic -- sweet, rich, and just the right amount of indulgent -- and easily one of the standout items that keeps people talking. The rest of the menu has great variety too: perfectly cooked scrambles, beautifully plated benedicts, and creative twists on classic breakfast fare that make it feel fresh and modern. Service here is friendly and attentive, and our food came out sooner than expected once we were seated. The atmosphere is clean and inviting, with plenty of natural light and a casual brunch energy (just be prepared -- weekends fill up fast!). Tips: Get there early to avoid a long wait, and definitely come hungry -- portions are generous. I'd go again for a weekend brunch or a casual weekday breakfast. read more

I usually go to the San Francisco location So I was so excited when sweet maple opened up here in Walnut Creek!! The service was amazing, we brought our pup and the workers immediately gave him a water bowl. The restaurant itself is super cute. And it is just overall great vibes in there. read more

I really enjoyed the ambiance, the service and the exotic and playful menu. The food was good. Their hollandaise sauce is creamy, herbaceous, and delicious. The egg soufflé was fluffy and tasty. Drinks were good, and the bacon jam was delectable! Definitely a winner. My only complaint was that the potatoes were unseasoned and not hot or crispy. For the price, I want great potatoes. All in all, a lovely breakfast b read more

Came on a Saturday for brunch around 11. Waited less than 30 minutes to be seated for a party of 4. Food was delicious! We ordered the tornado omurice, chicken and waffles, and the sizzling stone pot. For drinks we got the sweet maple espresso martini and the mango margarita both so tasty! For appetizers we got the earl grey blueberry croffle and the bacon flight. Hard to pick a favorite bacon flavor. Service was quick and they were very nice. Ambiance was the restaurant was so cute, no too loud and lots of natural light. Definitely recommend checking out, you won't be disappointed! Already thinking about what I'm going to order next time cuz it was so hard to choose! read more

Good service, drinks were served quickly which I appreciate. I got the matcha latte, absolutely delicious & refreshing. We also ordered the millionaires bacon flight which is a must! I got the smash burger & fries & hubby enjoyed the Francis (egg soufflé ) but he said it was so hot - each bite was kinda hard to enjoy. The cast iron pan it comes in stays very hot so be careful. Our little one enjoyed his petit pancake. And he loves the blueberries & whip cream! This was our 2nd time here & clearly one of my best spots for Sunday brunch. Hint: hit the farmers market 9-1 right around the corner. read more

Modern place with delish food. Was in town for brunch and found this place that had a touch of Korean flare with their stone bowl rice. Beautiful food presentation. Price a bit more than your usual brunch place, but ambiance is great. Great service will bring us back again should we be in the area. read more

Came in on an early Sunday morning 30 minutes after opening and this place was about half full! We had an ube latte and a matcha latte with almond milk, then settled into our food - the chicken croffle, the omurice galbi, and the Benedict Gladstone. The mixed potatoes with the Benedict were next level good. Eggs and Hollandaise sauce were great. The millionaire's bacon was tasty, but was a little tough to cut. The ciabatta bread as a base for the Benedict was also a little hard to cut. Taste was good, but the tough cutting (even with the extra knife) took a little away from the dish. I am probably going to go for a souflegg skillet next time read more

Food was excellent. Service was great AB's love the vibe. Glad we sat outside very loud indoors

So happy I finally tried this place!! I went on a weekday with my mom so it wasn't too crowded. We absolutely loved the outdoor seating. The mimosas definitely pack a punch I ordered the short rib Benedict, mom ordered an omelette, and we shared the brussel sprouts with millionaire bacon. Everything was PERFECT! we noticed a few orders of the French toast at the next table and were salivating while we waited for our food. I will definitely return here! Perfect for a brunch date or girls day out!! read more

This is a really interesting addition to downtown WC. The ambiance is very Vegas-like with modern, trendy fixtures. It does, however, make for a very live acoustic space, so when it's packed, it's nearly impossible to near your friends. The service is very prompt and friendly and the food comes out quick. They have a very smooth operation. While at first, you might think the food is slightly overpriced for what you get, the flavors and the presentation are really on point. Yes, there's always going to be the cost of a downtown location, but I don't think they skimp here. My friend got the coconut moffle and I got the fried chicken croffle. Both were absolutely delicious and it's actually really hard to decide on what to get. Normally, you can scope out what other tables have ordered, but in this case, it doesn't make the decision any easier. I really hope this spot lasts. Parking can be tough but there are two garages close by. read more

We frequent the location in Palo Alto and love it there so we wanted to try the one closer to home. The wait is usually long but that's because it's so popular. During the week you can make reservations but weekends is first come first served usually. The food is still just so beautiful and tastes amazing! Love the aesthetics of this location it's gorgeous! Just sad that the matcha mochi waffle was not on the menu. read more

The ambiance is very modern yet quant thanks to the compact seating arrangement. Service is great, our server was jovial & upbeat!

If you love bacon, then you need to try the Millionaire bacon flight! Great place for breakfast. Place is small, so noise level can get pretty loud. The waitress spilled the latte on my friend. She quickly got napkins so my friend can wipe her blouse. The waitress brought another latte, but did not comp the latte nor offer to pay for my friend's dry cleaning bill. read more

Long wait during busy brunch times, but it was nice to walk the Sunday farmers market across the street while we waited for our yelp waitlist to inform us that our table was ready. We parked, got added to the yelp waitlist via their tablet, then walked around the farmers market to grab some fresh fruit, kettle corn, and flowers. After we received our 10 minute warning text that our table would be ready, we walked over and checked in with the host, then got seated with some coloring sheets with crayons for the kids. Bathrooms are clean and perfect to wash hands after walking around downtown Walnut Creek before being seated (I saw employees walking in and out of the restrooms to ensure they were clean, which was so nice to see!). Our table was so close to the other tables, so waiters were knocking me over or guests were accidentally touching our bags, etc. Not comfortable seating during to lack of space, but the ceilings are high and the decor is nice. I ordered the Korean Galbi omesake egg with fried rice, which was delicious (overpriced, but good). Husband wanted a simple BLT with fries, which he enjoyed. Kids ordered the kids pancake with one bacon, one scrambled eggs, and fruit. It was enough for the kids to share the 8 mini pancakes (4each). Many families with young kids or babies, so it was loud, which made us feel right at home, lol!! Host mistakenly brought Coke instead of Diet Coke, and forgot my latte, but that was fine - it was super busy, and we had our water pitcher. Kids had their water in plastic cups with lids. Wish the straws weren't paper though because they got so soggy quickly. Overall, we had a great family brunch! read more

I've been a big fan of the location in SF, so when I found out Sweet Maple was coming to WC I was over the moon! This location, like their sister, has amazing food, charming ambiance that's slightly elevated to match the WC vibe, and excellent service. I've always enjoyed the service model of everyone does everything- you can ask any staff member for whatever you need and no one says "I'll get your server" or brushes you off. The staff here genuinely seem to enjoy working here and helping each other which I love. As for the food- they do have some items unique to this location, including the Coconut Moffle with Brie, which is a super crispy mochi waffle lightly flavored with coconut, topped with a small portion of brie cheese, with fresh raspberries and a kind of raspberry honey to garnish. When I tell you that I was shocked at how delicious this was!!!! I ate the whole plate- and I'm not usually one for being able to finish a meal. My husband got the short rib omurice which is insanely delicious and flavorful. And of course we got a flight of bacon because you have to have the bacon here!!!! Personally my fave is the millionaires bacon, but hubby wanted the flight this time so we did that. Cocktails to start were also great- the espresso martini had a foam that stayed the entire time we were there and was vanilla forward which was super tasty. He got the Morning Glory (plug here for a BOMB spot in San Diego by this name, A MUST TRY brunch spot!). This cocktail has Greek yogurt in it which is what intrigued him, and he said that the flavor did actually come through in the drink and he really enjoyed it! And my last note for you, it's a small one but IYKYK; the ciabatta toast here is elite. Once upon a time they also had housemade raspberry preserves they served with it but they don't make that anymore- however the toast itself is FIRE. Texture, flavor, crunch, perfection- you're welcome. read more

Came here for a girls brunch and had a nice time! We loved the presentation of the food and their mimosas. If you love posting pictures of your plate this is for sure the place for that. I got the blueberry cloud French toast and it was good, but I was expecting a little bit more. I would come here again but I'd definitely try something new since they have a lot of dishes to try! If I could I would rather sit outside because it was very loud sitting inside of the restaurant. read more

I have gone to the SF location many times. Was super excited to go to the WC location for my Birthday today . The decor is beautiful, lots of natural light. Service was a little rough. Couldn't flag down our server (or any) to order drinks. It was not busy but no staff would make eye contact. The Bloody Mary was tasty! The Millionaire bacon did not disappoint BUT again the service was lacking. My 97yr old MIL and I shared the Oscar Benny. The plate they gave us to split was literally the size of a bread plate!!!!! Ridiculous. We asked for a "real" plate and they brought one. I'm happy to pay a split fee, just don't give me a tiny plate to try to put all the food on. The Benny was tasty as was my husband chicken & waffle. However, I just don't feel it's the same vibe as SF, I'm not sure I will be back anyone soon with so many other high end brunch spot available now. read more

famous millionaire's bacon was incredibly thick, sweet, and packed with a wonderful spicy kick.

The staff at this restaurant were absolutely lovely so welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind from the moment we walked in. The breakfast was nothing short of phenomenal; every single bite was bursting with flavor and perfectly prepared. You can tell that a lot of care and attention goes into every dish.The restaurant itself is spotless, bright, and beautifully maintained, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. I truly loved everything about it -- from the warm service to the amazing food and relaxing atmosphere. It's definitely a place I'd love to come back to again and again. read more

What makes a restaurant great? Is it the food, service, environment, or even the restroom? We were seated very quickly for how busy it was for a Friday brunch. It was quite a big menu. The Souflegg skillet was great, but it was extremely hot, and therefore was difficult to eat in a timely manner. My mango Margherita was delicious! I highly recommend it! The French toast was overly thick (almost too heavy) The bathrooms were clean and the service was fast and professional. Parking is difficult during peak hours. read more

Tasty drinks. Yummy food and good service. It is Pricey though. I would go again because the ambiance is also nice

We've been trying to get in there and have brunch as friends for quite some time and it just never worked out but today was the day. Got in. Got an immediate table. The menu looked amazing. I wound up having the florentine eggs Benedict and my friend had their spinach scramble....staff were friendly and efficient. There's no one person on any table so service is immediate and excellent. I also wound up having fresh orange juice which is outstanding. There is just not enough nice things for me to say about this place..... I also love the fact that dogs are welcome out on the patio, which means we'll be going there frequently! My husband is handicapped and can't get out. I also took an order of the Korean fried Chicken home and he was delighted! read more

I've been to this location on 3 occasions now. Service has been fast and friendly every time. Even spoke to the owner/manager? The ambiance is nice, clean, and I love the greenery. What we tried so far: - Millionaires bacon: I mean you can't come here without ordering this. My fam and I have tried the flight with different flavors but the original is still our go to. - Korean fried chicken: we got this for the littles but the chicken was a little dry; my daughter was choking on a piece because it was a little too hard lol but the gochujang sauce that comes with it was yum & I liked the little rice cakes - omurice: my favorite dish, I just wish the temperature was HOT! You can tell most of the dish is pre made before the plate it but the flavor is A1 - earl grey blueberry craffle: ugh so goodt, early grey is one of my go to teas especially with milk because it literally just gives boba lol but with the tartiness of the blueberries and the buttery goodness from the croissant *chefs kiss* - kids mini pancake: I feel like this needs a better description on the menu cus I was assuming it would be one but it's actually several and the kids love it -- because of the description I ordered something else for my daughter and she ended up stealing all the pancakes from her cousins who ordered this & someone was NOT happy lol - coconut moffle w Brie- also a hit at the table but I unfortunately didn't try it because I was pregnant & it had Brie but I def wanna come back for this - the raymun special was not it- it was just lacking flavor for me & that was surprising and disappointing considering everything else has been solid Can't wait to come back & try more! read more

Over-priced, mid-level brunch food that is more about the hype than the flavor. The service was great though! I visited the SF location years ago and it seemed better. However, I think this is one of the many brunch spots opening up with cute aesthetic and interesting looking plates. It just wasn't worth the high price tag. read more

We both ordered the burgers. I had the Juicy Jam Lucy burger. Although delicious, the lemon aioli did not come through until the last bite, it was not spicy, so if you don't like spicy but want flavor this is a good choice. Sweet and savory. The second burger was the, Balsamic Burger. This tasted like a regular burger but I could not eat it with my hands. It just fell apart so I ate it with my side salad. I could not taste any balsamic, no truffle nor any lemon. I won't get this again nor recommend it. French fries have a nice crispy outside but no flavor, however; the aioli it came with was flavorful. We had water and black coffee and black coffee was tasty. Service was good-ask us for more coffee and checked in on us. We sat outside under covered area. The restaurant is LOUD outside was quieter but still loud. read more

I go for the crab sandwich and millionaire bacon. That's it that's all. But seriously this place is trendy but the food keeps me coming back. Highly recommend reserving in yelp before you go. There's always a wait. The service isn't memorable as it's a fast paced brunch spot. The design is modern and fresh. read more
