Reviews
They have a pretty wide selection of brunch/lunch items and a massive dessert menu. I got the Western Burger (see attached pics), which came garnished with frizzled onions and bacon. It was really good and the portion was quite generous. I got my order pretty quickly.
I got the latte (see pic) after the burger and it came generously garnished with whip cream. It was a nice little treat!
The ambiance is great as well. It’s great for casual lunches, for studying, or even taking business clients out for breakfast.
I would return again.
They have a large assortment of cakes, cookies, and other pastries. They’re attached to another restaurant that is on the right when you walk in. Parking in the back lot or in the front on the street.
As a local resident, I like to support all my local businesses. With that being said, I cannot support Mara’s any longer. Before even moving to this lovely town, I randomly went to Mara’s on the way to the Poconos. I saw it on my gps and it had great reviews for a local bakery. Got some coffee, cookies and a few baked goods…all very delicious. I ended up moving here and was happy Mara’s was now 5mins away.
Fast forward several years later; they close up shop and I was disappointed, along with many of the residents. They ended up reopening and undergo a renovation. Gone was the old school hometown bakery, and in was the modern trendy cafe. After the grand reopening and things settled down, I went back to try the “new” Mara’s. Each time my fiancé and I have went, we felt like the food and service has always been mehhh.
It’s now 2021 and I have purchased my last item from them. While picking up dinner from the delicious El Lechon de Negron, I decide to get dessert from Mara’s. I order a slice of their chocolate chip cookie pie to go. 5 minutes pass and I could see the 2 girls behind the counter were working on the other tickets, no big deal. 10 minutes pass and I still don’t have my order. At this point, my food was starting to get cold. 15 minutes pass and another gentleman who ordered after me got his stuff before me…guess it helps to know the cashier. I ask what was taking so long, but all she could say was sorry they were backed up. Finally, after 20 minutes I get my dessert…my dinner was now cold and I still have to drive home.
I understand that things get busy from time to time, but waiting 20 minutes to get a slice of pie to go is crazy. I don’t know if they are understaffed, but waiting that long for a simple order was not worth it. To make matters worse, this wasn’t the first time I’ve experienced this slowness from them. I keep giving them chances to right their ship, but I cannot any longer. Although close to home, I’d rather go somewhere else.
