"The epitome of the small town diner, Sugar Maple Cafe offered me what I craved. I am content with a drink refill whenever I drop too low, some smiling from my wait staff, and prompt food that tastes acceptable. This is more. Though I came at a time when many of the tables in the tiny shop were full, I was given constant refills as the waitress was very attentive though busy. The food itself was excellent. I had the special with braised beef and pea Mashed potatoes and it was fabulous. They have flavorings with their coffees, lemonade, ect and a hazelnut coffee hit the spot on a cold morning. The chef recognized my lunch mate who had come in once before and remembered her dietary restrictions (gluten) and came out to check that the gravy-covered dish I ordered was not intended for her. I don't know if that level of attention is normal for this place. I could have caught them on a good day but the way the customers reacted to the small staff and the atmosphere of this tiny spot on a strip mall made the casual conversation exchanged mean more somehow. If it makes sense, I really felt the home town atmosphere here and could picture myself as the regular I watched who was greeted by name and given a cup of flavored coffee just as I like."
