The server was great, but the FOOD?!? The bathroom has more flavor than the food. The host/hostess station is an ugly desk. Obviously the owner doesn't care about this place because walking in, you can see the effort isnt there anymore. read more

I really wanted to give this place five stars because when we first moved here, this was my absolute favorite brunch place!! It was just so charming!! They did change some things on the menu since we moved here last August. They took away their amazing, huge cinnamon roll and replaced it with a very dry one. My daughter would get the cinnamon roll every single time she came in. But then when they came out with the new one she passed. Just didn't have enough icing on it, and it was dry around the edges. The other thing that I was sad about is that they went with plain old white coffee cups with their name on them. It seems so corporate to me. They stood out with their colorful, huge mugs for coffee!! My daughter and I absolutely adore that. It made them stand out a bit . Their food is pretty good. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The only other tip I would recommend would be when you guys have specials listed on your specialty menu to make sure you don't run out of anything. Last time I was there, you ran out of the banana bread latte and that was pretty disappointing. And please bring your cinnamon rolls back lol!! read more

I can't wait to go back! I need to try every menu item and every cocktail they offer (not all at once) because it's so creative and fun and I love the rotating menu! I love coffee and can appreciate the cafe attached which also makes a huge difference in their coffee based beverages. Our server made excellent recommendations and the food came out hot. My only critique is specific to the avocado toast, there was a missed opportunity to really elevate this with texture and different flavor profiles because it seemed one dimensional and at more than $10 I felt it should taste and look like something I can't make at home. Otherwise I'm looking forward to trying more items! read more

I had a wonderful breakfast over at Maple & Bacon. Delicious coffee and very well prepared jalapeño chorizo biscuits and gravy. I would come back just for the coffee and the bacon. But the entire breakfast was great! It was a bit crowded, but the staff was attentive and hard working. More of an upscale breakfast experience, but reasonably priced. I'll stop by there every time I'm back in the region. read more

Gave M&B another shot, and it's improved. Still very packed place, which is good, but the food was much better this time. Biscuits & Gravy was definitely the star. read more

Food was just okay. Hash browns had no flavor. We ordered blueberry lemonade and watermelon lemonade, they tasted like flavored water, we didn't taste lemonade at all! Service was just okay as well. I love going out to breakfast but I definitely won't come back here. And to top it off, what we paid was the most I've paid for a breakfast anywhere. Bring cash if you don't want to pay extra, they charge if you use your card. I would not recommend this place. read more

Best breakfast place in Valpo! The whole menu is great but this is my go-to for breakfasts with friends and family. Wonderful service and great atmosphere too. read more

Our server was newer and was wonderful. He was friendly and helpful. The food was prepared with love. They seem to be trying to get creative with brunch options and so far everything I have tried, it is working. Food was delicious. My daughter had the chicken wrap, husband got crabby Benedict, and I got Daily Double. The star were the pancakes! I added blueberries. We also got the M+B Signature Latte. It was a real treat! Will be back! read more

Very minimal wait on Father's Day. Million dollar bacon was good. We also enjoyed the sausage gravy biscuits. I can't remember the other food but it was tasty and the music was at the perfect volume and vibe. It also felt very family friendly. We also enjoyed two cocktails but I can't remember the name of those. Overall, I'd return. read more

We have eaten here several times and it has always been a pleasure. We meet with a Rather large group and they have been very accommodating to seat us together. Breakfast is really good and the club sandwich for lunch is the best I have ever had. Others said the smash burger is excellent also and the prices are very reasonable. I do recommend Maple and Bacon! read more

Nice small breakfast / lunch place. We have been waiting to try this place but the wait was always way too long. Today we got in within 10 minutes. Food and service were good! Ambiance is medium noise level with music playing in the background. read more

My nephew wanted to celebrate his 30th birthday at Maple plus bacon. The location is great but a little confusing on how to get into the parking lot. A reservations were for 15 people, and the first table that they sent us at would not accommodate us. Therefore, we moved from a booth to several long tables. When you first walked through the door, there's a counter and across from that is a beautiful seating area, very large and accommodating. They also have separate rooms to accommodate more guest . The overall ambience is great beautifully decorated With a full bar. Our server was named Dee and she was very good. I took plenty of pictures so you could can see how delicious the different plates looked. I would give the overall experience 4 1/2 stars but of course I'm not given that option definitely a place to go because it is really nice. read more

LOVE this place. Every time I go here the service & food is amazing. I have tried a few different things since coming here. From their avocado toast, to pancakes, to their kids menu because my son didn't eat everything. My favorite thing about coming here though is that the menu is pretty unique and creative. They also serve some pretty drinks that taste amazing. We try to go on week days when they're not too busy since there's usually a wait every time we go on a weekend or near a holiday. There's a nice atmosphere when you're here though. Plenty of decoration, some TVs playing different things, and the place has a pretty nice layout. If you want quality food I recommend trying this place out. read more

What went well? Everything! All staff was friendly helpful and knowledgeable. The food was great tasting hot delicious. The special coffee I had oh yummy yummy. Would I go back there again oh yes I'm going to go back up there next week probably on the 17th or the 18th of september. I haven't had this good of a breakfast at a restaurant in a long long time. I'm going to drive 5 hours back up north the crown point Indiana because I'm going to take a friend out to rapid City in South Dakota for a week of the Badlands, but before we do we're going to go up to Valparaiso and we're going to have some more maple bacon. Yummy yummy. read more

Maple and Bacon is a great and cute addition to the neighborhood. The staff are welcoming, helpful and friendly. I had the soup flight and the garden bowl. Both were tasty and I'd order the garden bowl again. The over medium eggs were cooked properly and the flavors of the peppers, spinach and feta combined were terrific. I had a taste of my friend's jalapeño cheddar biscuit with chorizo gravy and it too was delicious. I'm excited to try move of the menu. read more

Odd request to switch tables interrupted my wife's birthday breakfast. We were excited for a nice family outing And upon arriving at about 10am were escorted to a table by the hostess. We looked over the menu, poured our waters and ordered drinks. As our server was approaching with our beverages the hostess sidled up to ask us to move to another table because ours was needed for an incoming reservation. My four year old began crying because she thought we were leaving without eating. Our other children were also confused. I didn't know that the restaurant took reservations and I thought it was odd that she said our "whole area of benches" was needed but the table next us wasn't moved. We were walked to a tented in a different room, past our perplexed server who stood there holding our drinks and unsure of what to do. We had to inform the server that we were being moved. Then we had to try to excision it to the new server by the new table. No one seemed to one what was happening. Celebrating my wife's birthday took a backseat to us trying to settle the children who didn't understand if we were staying or going. My wife and myself were thrown off as well as we tried to re-look at the menu. I understand that nothing is perfect and that the unexpected can and does occur: but we were given a lame and mumbled apology from the hostess for the inconvenience of her mistake. A simple visit from the manager with an apology or even an offer to comp the coffees would have gone a long way toward reaffirming our value as customers. Food is ok, service is hit or miss. Not rushing back. read more

New to Valpo. Just moved here 2 weeks ago. This place is so cute. Great food. Excellent service. Wish they were open for lunch too

Came here with my sister and niece, and we had the most delicious breakfast! We both got iced lattes. My sister thought the latte was a little too sweet, and our waitress was willing to get it fixed. we thoroughly enjoyed our food and loved how cute the restaurant is! read more

MAPLE AND BACON NEXT TO TOMMY B's Holy cow! Finally a breakfast place that is on the same level as some of the finer Chicago or New York breakfast havens. Think Yoke or The Bongo Room or Cracked on Milwaukee or Cindys Roof Top. This is a foodie breakfast place, you will get what you pay for, here the staff is bright and cheerful,(not beat-down bitter, depressed shells of a soul who are at peace with being ground to dust). So if your looking for 40 year old florescent lights and april lunch maid uniforms, go someplace else. Tip generously to keep the high caliber wait staff, they deserve it. The food is everything it has been described as. Higher end breakfast food with a small twist of lunch for the late commers. Creative items without being overly cute or with pretension. The coffee .... Oh my god! It is fantastic! And I do not need to describe it with anything more than a word (FLUID) Yes, that is right, all the coffee is Fluid's and you can expect a top notch barista here that is as good as any at Fluid. Here is the only problem with great places like this (for breakfast and lunch) and others like Stacks for Dinner... they are always packed and you need to WAIT. Too bad so sad. But I have a solution, ("OWNER?") start a "regular customer" or "VIP" program. They get to make reservations. And maybe sign up for one of the online programs they have for Blockhead (owner check it out). Anyways, you get a chance to visit this place take it... read more

My sister and I were looking for a brunch spot while I was in town and we finally tried Maple + Bacon! We went on a Thursday morning and it wasn't too busy. We got seated pretty quickly and our server was nice! We ordered a waffle to share, a corned beef hash, and a kids meal (called Barely Awake) for my daughter. I got the brownie cold brew which was way too sweet for my liking but I usually drink it black. Our server was great and accommodating because she topped off my drink with more cold brew to make it less sweet! The waffle was delicious and the Barley Awake kids meal was a lot.. it had one egg, sausage, and hash browns. We upgraded the toast to the jalapeño and cheddar biscuit which was delicious! My sister had the corned beef hash and I'm only sad that I didn't order it for myself! Thankfully it was a big portion as well so I got some good bites out of it. Great food, great staff, and a great experience! I'll definitely be back read more

FOOD: Went for Mother's Day Breakfast/Brunch. Terrible idea not to have the menu available and over priced at $46 per adult. The food was average at best, didn't have all the typical breakfast ideas, but had some other weird dishes not thought out as a brunch. Prime Rib was subpar. SERVICE: Service was great. Gratuity was included in the bill, I never feel comfortable with this, employers should pay their staff better. While our server was great. I heard other tables complaining. CLEANLINESS: I felt like everything looked pretty clean for a busy crowd. AMBIANCE: It's a typical restaurant, rustic and somewhat modern decor. It's pleasant enough. read more

We went in on Father's Day without a reservation.... We sat at the bar.... Brandon was our server.... Nice guy! We ordered.... I had an omelet with hash browns and Greek toast..... it was all really good food. My husband ordered a skillet type dish..... his was yummy too! There was a man who waited a long time for his meal... it never came.... Two or three people spoke to him about the problem.... Lord one of them should have brought him some of those doughnut holes or some fruit or both .... to hold him over..... just something to make that hour wait worth the fact that he was still waiting.... read more

Very cool vibe to this place. As you come in through the coffee shop, you're met with a selection of coffees, pastries, and cocktails! The string is very hipster coffee shop with high top tables and some lounge style seating. Through the next set of doors is the restaurant. It also has a bar style seating area with tables throughout the room. The menu is upscale, traditional breakfast meals including omelets, skillets, and healthier options. The food is great as is the service: but, be ready to dish out some cash. This isn't iHop. read more
