Reviews for maman in New York, NY
Came back twice during my visit solely for the vegan croissant! So delicious. On day 2 the vegan croissant wasn?t in the window,... but they kinda baked a fresh one for me within 10mins! Read more
I think this place has great potential but you need more staff. I took about 10 minutes for someone just to come over to take my... order. The food came out relatively quickly but getting the check took at least 15 minutes. Myself as well as the woman sittingbeside me grew annoyed waiting and waiting. I?ve sat and dined in as well as ordered out and two times my order has been wrong.For example, ordering the breakfast sandwich and getting home to see there was no egg. I think the staff needs better trainingand they simply need additional people to help! Read more
Awesome looking place. Very cool. Great service. Starbucks has absolutely ruined coffee, now everywhere has the same awful... tasting coffee... this had that weird syrupy, caramel like taste that's so common now... perhaps because it was iced coffee madeearlier and sat for a few hours... anyway, pastries were delicious and again layout is beautiful, great and friendly staff.

I like the Quiche Katy. The ingredients include cauliflower, feta cheese, cumin, cilantros and baby kale, which made it very... Mediterranean. This location seems always crowded and loud on weekend mornings. Wish the service is a bit more attentive andless hustling! Read more
We tried pistachio croissant, avocado toast and cappuccinos. Pistachio croissant was below expectation, too sweet and not well... made. Avocado toast was good, and nicely presented. Cappuccinos were ok, but not the best. Service was subpar for a fancy placelike this (for example the waitress asked us if we want the check even before we head finished), although in all fairness thismight have been because this was their first week of opening and they had more customers than they could handle.

This definitely is a perfect TikTok / Insta type of place. Cute, colorful, pretty food and decor. Service is helpful and... efficient but slow at times, which can be attributed to the fact that they just opened 2 days ago. Beverages are excellent.Minus for vegan milk being charged extra . ?Papa?s breakfast bowl? (with added bacon) was delicious and bursting with flavor.Potatoes could be more crispy and there was a pool of grease at the bottom of the bowl. Nevertheless, solid 4 stars. ?RabbitHole? looked great and ingredients sounded awesome. Unfortunately it came together as pretty to look at but lacking in flavor -2 stars. Humble ?White chocolate raspberry rose cookie? was a hands down a showstopper. A perfect balance of crunch andsoftness, a divine yet subtle raspberry flavor with a hint of rose. - 5 stars Will definitely return to explore other options aswell as to, hopefully, adjust the rating.

Maman?s newest location and (I think) 13th store in NYC, had their soft opening today. Located near Lincoln Center and across... the street from ABC studios, Maman is a great place to make a pit stop before seeing a concert or performance. Currently, theyare open every day but close at 6pm. I wish they stayed open later but apparently the shop becomes an event space in theevening. Also, their kitchen closes at 4pm daily which means all of the savory items on the menu are no longer available atpoint. Like all other Maman locations, the décor here is beautiful, sort of rustic French provincial. The shop, from theinside and front, is very aesthetically pleasing. I?ve been to several other Maman locations and have found that the foodoffered, from the pastries to the salads and sandwiches are usually a match to the décor, both in presentation and taste. Their Chocolate Chunk cookie is well known and is on Oprah?s Favorites list. So, you know I was excited to stop by. I hurriedafter work to grab something but unfortunately was a little too late. I got there about 45 minutes before closing and all oftheir pastries were already gone. Bummer. Only drinks were available for purchase at that point. I ended up just grabbing ahoney lavender latte instead. Was the drink good? Yes, it was excellent. I loved the slight aroma of lavender with the smoothbut strong latte flavor. It would have been hundred times better if I had one of their pastries to go with it though. Luckily, I work near this neighborhood and I?m already planning on coming by another day. Another thing I wanted to note isthat they are donating 100% of the proceeds from today to Ukranian families via Welcome Baby. The money raised is used to fundbaby packages and will be sent to the Ukraine and Poland. This kind of philanthropy is something that Maman has been doing sincethe beginning of the pandemic; they?ve been donating the proceeds from the first day of each new store from the past Read more
This location is not the best but some other maman?s have great service. For an early breakfast, we had some quiches, baked... goods, and a salad here. The strawberry almond croissant and pain au chocolat were delicious, and I also really enjoyed theoatmeal cookie. With a little sprinkle of salt, the quiches were tasty, and my Antonia salad was very flavorful and refreshing.We went earlier in the day, so the cafe wasn?t too busy. The staff were a bit slow, but friendly. Maman definitely has someappetizing menu items, and their lattes, tea, and decor are very pleasing as well. Read more
