Came here because of the reviews and while the customer service was good, the coffee was horrible. The espresso was burnt and my latte tasted like hotel coffee. The spinach scone has no flavor, please give me a little salt or some
Type of seasonings!

Maples is a tiny mountain coffee shop in an off-the-beaten track area of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The coffees are decent, if not always as fresh as a high-volume place. But considering the location, and the nearest other local shop is 20 miles away, it's a real oasis. The owner bakes incredible pastries and cakes-- all world class quality and imaginative. I've bought entire cakes from them for celebrations. There are only a handful of tables inside, and a few more outside on a country crossroads that can be a little busy, but it's connected to a large local mountain crafts store that is happy to have you browse with your drink. Several nights a week, they have local music in the gallery that is professionally presented and usually worth hearing. When it's quiet, the local staff is very friendly and will chatty. Finally, they are open pretty late in the evenings, making it at dependable stop. Nearly perfect community place.

While hosting at Black Mountain Campground, a friend who camps with us during the summer, brought us treats from Maples. Every couple of weeks we would get these delicious surprises, carefully boxed. Everything was delicious, fight over, delicious! Ha!
We are returning to the mountains in a few weeks and can’t wait to treat our host families.

Coffee good. Savory scones even gooder. Nice place to read your fiction novel while you procrastinate on your honey do list

I give this place five stars and I haven't even tried half of what they serve. My mom and I stepped in and even though the owner was trying to close up for the night she welcomed us with open arms, tremendous service, and great conversation. This couldn't be a friendlier more welcoming establishment. There is a boutique feel in the dining area, with items on consignment by local artists. There are tons of baked goods to choose from and from what I could tell, all made in house. In fact while we were there we overheard a gentleman order a pie over the phone and then come and pick it up. There's a lending library in the foyer with DVDs, books and chapbooks by local writers. Although dine in is not available right now there's still a cozy feel to the dining room. The owner told me that when the world is on level ground again she plans to have more art as well as spoken word and musical performances. Simply put, this is the place I've been looking for in Burnsville from my first visit. And as if all that weren't enough, the coffee was out of this world! The bean is from a local roaster and it was scrumptious! I even bought a pound to take home. There's plenty of parking and it's next door to OOAK gallery so you can just cross the parking lot when you've finished checking out the local art.

Susan, the owner, does a great job! I can't remember any time she has not greeted us with a smile when we arrive. We are weekly visitors when we are in the States. Love the cinnamon rolls with icing and coffee!

This cozy coffee shop has the best cinnamon rolls that I've ever had. The coffee is divine, and if you're lucky, you can hear Susan singing while she cooks. It's the best!

The Scones!! Incredible. Can't wait to get back for another. Coffee was great, cranberry oatmeal cookie was satisfyingly chewy. Friendly staff. New favorite!

You know, I don't eat a lot of sweets...I usually just stop here and get a cup of coffee (which is always good). Someone brought some cookies from a local grocery store bakery to my workplace, and I tried one of them. A few days later, I had one from Maples. The cookie from Maples was *much* more delicious...The dough had a delicious buttery flavor.

Very nice. Molasses cookies are the bang! Nice atmosphere and you can sometimes hear local music being played. Great place miss Susan!
