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.

I needed coffee (take out) so I went in when I was running errands nearby without first reading reviews or looking at menu. It was off peak hours on a weekday, not busy at all. Interior is quite cute, seems relaxed enough to have a nice conversation with friends or study - a couple of tables had people studying or working. Service was super friendly at the cash. Barista was nice too. My drink was perfect. I grabbed a couple of the famous cookies, they are quite good but not sure why they are so famous. I might come back to try the brunch options. Parking is difficult to find.

The food & service were great! I love a brunch place that accepts reservations, which I recommend as it does get crowded. We got the pancakes & the toasted salmon, which were delicious. I found the price point for the salmon high at $22 as it wasn't super filling. Pancakes were at $18, which is typically for MTL brunch places. The place is beautiful. However, there are a lot of tables crammed at the back, which makes it less intimate. I would go back to try their amazing looking cookies, though.

I'm so happy this beautiful place has opened up again. I really missed it. The atmosphere is to die for. I usually sit at the bar to sip one of the best Cortados in Montreal. Not to forget the super delicious cookies to make you feel warm 😜 The friendly staff always serves you with a great smile no matter what. The service is at the right pace & the food is...well you will understand why this place is a MUST-GO on Notre-Dame street. Of course I ended up drinking a glass of Prosecco while having conversation here & there with the staff. A++++

Yes, the cookies are to die for 😍 The dining area is literally packed with tables so it feels quite claustrophobic but I appreciated being seated almost immediately even for Sunday brunch. We did wait 40+mins for our food. Other than that, lovely rustic atmosphere, great coffee & food - highly recommend the Maman's breakfast sandwich!

Best brunch I've had in a long time. Pancakes & pain perdu were awesome. Pumpkin pie latte was also delish. The decor is so beautiful. Grab cookies on the way out, you won't regret it!
