My Dad and his ex-fiance got reacquainted through social media and Skype calls when both were widowed and in their late 80s. Since Dad was in the Northern New Jersey area and she was in a Baltimore suburb we decided Shady Maple was the perfect place to take them to...
My mom, grandmother, aunt, and I started coming on Holy Thursday or Good Friday when I was in elementary school. I’m now 35 and it is still a yearly tradition, even though my grandmother has passed away. I look forward to our day trip every year!
We come on Good Friday for breakfast. The numbers grew and grew. I moved to Texas, but the tradition continues. Can’t wait to visit this summer and come to Shady Maple!

My wife and I had our first meal at Shady Maple last year, and I can say it was the best buffet we have ever been to. There was a huge selection of food. The shop downstairs was amazing, too. I can’t wait to come back again!!
Growing up my family would always enjoy a great lunch after shopping at Green Dragon Farmers Market. I got to spend Valentine’s Day this year with my 2 favorite guys, having lunch at Shady Maple and making new memories while remembering the memories past.
We started coming to Shady Maple when they were still in the old building. I will never forget the first time I walked into the new building and saw how beautiful and massive it was. Then, walking over to the buffet area was like I died and went to heaven! There was...
My favorite memory is going with my family for birthdays. My Gram loved going there. We would rent a room in the back area for our family and have birthday parties. Free meals were always nice.
