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.

Vibrant & active restaurant. Apparently a reservation is required on Sunday morning.

A little dusting of snow ❄? was to our advantage as we were seated immediately due to a few no shows.

Service & Atmosphere was spot on.

Very active & lively restaurant with a great Griffin Town vibe.

Seating spaces are tight, but a very worthwhile experience. ☕

Brunch chez Maman : top du top ! Le personnel est sympathique, attentionné & l'ambiance vraiment agréable. On s'est régalé du début à la fin, rien à redire. Une adresse que je recommande sans hésiter !

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 wonderful restaurant!
Had a lovely brunch with my friend. Arrived there at 2pm. Waited 5 mins for a seat. The food came quickly, even though it was during rush hour. The staff were so welcoming. I am glad I have tried this iconic spot in NYC. Reservations are suggested during weekends as it can get packed pretty quickly, I will be coming back!

Their pistachio croissant is different than any other one you find in most places, not to mention the quality of anything you pick, & their coffee. Beautiful cozy vintage style decoration, like a hidden gem in a quiet part of city.

Avoid this restaurant during winter: drafty as hell every time someone opens the door! The cold made my experience there quite unpleasant. I don't expect to go back in the summer, as I will still be thawing my gluteus maximus…

Tres bon, difficile de faire un choix tout a l'air bon... 🤩
Mais difficile de s'entendre parler, Tres bruyant, beaucoup de monde, table trop serrées, il est difficile de circuler, pareil pour les serveurs qui bousculent nos tables lors de leurs services, un oeu dommage
