Suzanne saw my empty coffee cup and water glass as she walked by TWICE with a coffee pot in her hand only to ignore my dilemma. The biscuits n gravy are very good however. I'm taking a hard pass on this place, which is sad as I used to like this place. I advised the lady checking me out what happened and said she'd talk to her. Unsure if that transpired or she said that to pacify me.

The place gets very busy on a Sunday morning. Lots of folks waiting inside and outside, blocking…read morethe restrooms, the entrances and holding the doors open. It gets uncomfortably warm inside, especially by the doors. Lots of people mean the wait staff have to navigate and at two times during our meal they had to have one of my family members get up from their seat to allow someone to pass. They really need to properly accommodate the people having to wait to be seated. That's my one star deduction. That said, the food is good. The wait staff are very attentive. And it is my family's favorite breakfast place in Sterling. I have not been during the week but have to assume it's much less crowded. Enjoy!

Came here on a Saturday morning after dropping my brother off at a run. Had 3 swedish pancakes,…read moresausage links and hash browns. Pros: + Service and the operation was incredibly efficient for being in a busy breakfast rush. + The swedish pancakes were some of the best I've had in recent memory. Very fresh and stayed hot until finished. That's not very common for this dish. + Ample space in the parking lot. Establishment itself seemed well kept. + Very cost effective price wise. Cons: - While not bad, I've had better in both the hash browns and especially sausage links. This is a nit pick however and not a true problem. - Like many establishments of its kind, I wonder if the menu is too extensive. While not directly proven, it does create questions of quantity over quality dish to dish. Side note: -The restroom had a strange scent that reminded me of a bait and tackle ship right after one gets down after cleaning fish. Just an odd observation. Bottom line: If I was a local this would easily be a regular stop. the busy breakfast turnout is well deserved. Maple Pancake House completely nails classi American morning diner. A great place

I would recommend making reservations as it was consistently busy. We opted for seats at the bar to avoid an hour wait. This place is tiny, so it would not be ideal for large groups. It would be difficult to accommodate someone who could not navigate stairs (there are both stairs to enter as well as a staircase for most of the dining space). Servers were friendly and helpful, the right amount of attentive. The food came out quickly. They offer light lunch, brunch, breakfast fare, with specials, and baked goods from Lola. A popular special is a homemade pop tart, which has rotating flavors (today was blueberry with lemon frosting). We opted for French Toast, pork belly, and the country skillet. Everything was delicious and portions were generous. All around a great find.

I started with the Rainbow Connection Sour and it was one of the best sours I've ever had AND had phenomenal packaging so it was visually appealing as well. My guy and I got a bunch of things to try. From fave to least fave: Croque Madame: incredibly good! They were nice enough to make a fresh one for me since I can't have mustard. The egg was perfectly cooked and all the flavors blended seamlessly. Swedish Strawberry Cake: absolutely to die for! The lemon curd was fresh and perfect with the strawberry rhubarb sauce. My only thing is the frosting was cream cheese and that wasn't mentioned on the menu, so it should be added. Norwegian Handheld: I loved the overall concept of this dish and all the flavors themselves. However, the ingredient ratios were off for my 100% satisfaction. There wasn't enough pork belly and too much of the herb whipped cheese. I did still enjoy the dish and wouldn't mind having it again. Æbleskiver (Danish Pancake Balls): glad we started with these because they were pretty bland compared to all the other dishes we had. Lovely texture, but nothing special.
