Review Summary

Maman is widely recognized as a charming and cozy destination for breakfast, brunch, and coffee, often praised for its beautiful, homey decor and high quality pastries. Many patrons enjoy the fresh ingredients and unique, flavor-forward dishes, frequently highlighting the sandwiches and pancakes as standout options. While the atmosphere is consistently described as inviting, some visitors note that the space can become quite loud and crowded during peak times, leading to concerns about noise levels and tight seating. Experiences with service and food consistency vary, with some guests reporting highly attentive and friendly staff alongside efficient service, while others have faced significant delays, inconsistency in meal quality, or challenges with cleanliness. Despite these mixed reports, it remains a popular neighborhood staple that many continue to frequent for its distinct aesthetic and welcoming appeal.

Second visit:
The carrot soup was excellent.
Maman's breakfast sandwich was good.
Papa's breakfast bowl was ok.
The food was definitely better than the first time!

First visit:
It's odd to say, but I loved the plates-they were very Instagrammable. However, the croissants were not fresh, & the pancakes were average. While some enjoyed the salmon toast, it wasn't to my taste. The service & atmosphere were both okay. Despite some disappointments, I wouldn't mind giving it another try.

What a lovely discovery!
This Griffintown café has a warm, homely décor. The menu features classic dishes made with unique ingredients, giving them a wonderfully original twist. I love that the breakfast menu is available throughout lunchtime. The service was friendly & attentive. I'll definitely be returning with guests!
& since it is a cafe, let me add that they have very good coffee.

The pain au chocolate & almond croissants are to die for.

We had a Grandpa's breakfast meal, French toast, Ratatouille, chicken sandwich & coconut lemonade. All of them were cooked to perfection!
A must visit place

Went here for brunch with a friend. We waited 10 minutes to be seated despite multiple empty tables on the patio. Once we were seated it took 20-30 minutes for our server to come check in with us so we could order drinks & food. Drinks were good & came within 10-15 min. Food took over an hour to come - we ordered the papa breakfast & pancakes with a side of fried chicken. I cut into the chicken & it was visibly raw in the centre - the person who brought the food out agreed it was raw & asked us to check the other fried chicken & it was raw as well. They took them back to the kitchen. By the time they had come back with the chicken - over 20 minutes later we were mostly finished our meals. They also brought out the same chicken cut in half & it was obvious they just threw it back in the deep fryer - it was black in some areas but obviously not raw anymore. I asked for my meal to be discounted as I was not going to be eating the chicken & the person said it was not possible. I again asked our waitress when it was time for the bills to get a discounted meal & the ?manager came out. Said it was not possible the chicken was raw & when I explained the situation she called the owner & they just removed my latte from the bill. Overall it was a bad experience, poor customer service & mediocre food.

We were not planning on coming to Maman for breakfast, but extremely thankful we came across it. The french toast & pancakes were delectable. We also had their homemade lemonade & chai latte & both did not disappoint. The decor was beautiful & the staff was so incredibly friendly. They made our visit so special.
