Yelp.com Review - by Sasha R.

2.0 of 5 stars. I agree with Lili Z. Maude's gets talked up a whole lot in Gainesville and I'm not really quite sure why. I ordered my usual, a chai latte with honey. It was okay but I would have rather gone to...

3.0 of 5 stars. It's an alright place. It's only popular because the hippies make it so. Their desserts are good, and the atmosphere can be nice when it's not full of freaks wearing skinny jeans and judging your...

5.0 of 5 stars. If there's anything I miss about Gainesville (besides the springs) it's Maude's. True, the coffee could be better. True, the indoor lighting could be better. But really, who cares about those things...

Yelp.com Review - by Robert S.

3.0 of 5 stars. I used to throw fits about the "pretentious" "hipsters" or whatever here, too, but then I grew up a little. Bottom line is it's pretty decent for killing some time in a boring, boring town.
