Maple Tree Place — Local services in Williston

Great place for everything.

Best Buy staff, especially Mat, the supervisor of the cell phone department, are tremendous.

The Chilli's is a little hit or miss. Inconsistent. Some great waitstaff, some cranky ones. Food is also inconsistent.

Longhorn Steakhouse House is reasonable for lunch; great waitstaff; quality of food is excellent; quantity also.

Love Christmas Tree Shops, especially when I have a $10 off $50 coupon. You can sign up for one. Sales flyers have some great deals.

Majestic 10 is an OK theater, but Popcorn and refreshments cost an arm and two legs. Senior matinees are up to $7.50, non 3D.

The Thai place has great spring rolls and Pho(pronounced Fu).

Tonight is last free concert, this year. Can't wait for next summer.

The frozen yogurt place is very expensive, but the toppings bar is very fresh and immaculate.

AAA is here, too.

And Agave Mexican restaurant, where Tuesday is $3 tacos! And they have bottled Mexican Coke. No high fructose syrup, just sugar.

I could go on and on but it is a great place to stop by.

I just moved to Williston 3 months ago, but Shaw's, Friendly's, Panera and CVS are close by, also.

Highly...

Hello! Just a note on Christmas Tree Shops- a truly favourite place for my daughter and myself. Stopped in yesterday, as my daughter wanted to check out the Halloween section- her absolute Fave!! And yes, it did not disappoint. All sorts of fun Halloween decorations- wreaths, candles with bas relief spiders and snakes. Beautiful glassware with funky skeletons, bats and withches. Some are silly and kitschy (we sometimes need that!), and some are very tasteful. Take your pic!! Only thing missing so far... coffee mugs. My daughter was looking to replace her much used mug from last year. Walked around, always some useful, some fun, and some funky things. The nice thing- it is clean. Things everywhere, mishmash and you have fun looking- reminds me of the Williamsburg Pottery in Virginia.... but, clean- and that is...

Maple Tree place has such promise but never caught on. It's an expansive shopping and business complex surrounded by larger stores - Best Buy, Old Navy, Christmas Tree Shops, Staples, Shaws, and Dick's. There's a movie theater and a handful of smaller retailers. Most of the storefronts along the pedestrian areas have remained empty. For eateries, there's a mix if chains - Chili's, Longhorns, and Pizza Hut - and independent places like McGillicuddys, Asian Bistro, Grazers, Starbucks, and a Mexican will be opening soon.

Parking on busier days (holidays especially) can be an annoyance. Expect to walk if you want to be on the movie...
