    Such a great spot! So many delicious pastry and drink options. Serve proper breakfast and lunch as well. The space is nicely decorated and accommodates both large and small groups.

    Have come here several times and usually love it but was disappointed with two things today. 1) my quiche lorraine tasted stale and the bottom crust was soggy. The whole thing was moist in fact. 2) They really need to reconsider their laptop policy for a location in the middle of Manhattan. I was told by two different servers no laptops when I was checking my work emails for 2 minutes while waiting for my food. I was dining alone and my food and latte had not yet arrived. What is the purpose of this rule? I will probably reconsider coming here again on a weekend afternoon. The service was otherwise great and I enjoyed my latte and the soup du jardin

    Would give it a 6-star rating if I could! They sat our party of six quickly on a Sunday mid-morning brunch without a need for a reservation. There was ample space and service was fast. I wish I had gotten the name of our server because she was fantastic. The food was amazing - very large portions of note! The cocktails were all great, light, and not too sugary. The coffee drinks were tasty but very sweet so I would definitely recommend half sweetened. Staff are friendly but not overly in your face.

    This location has the same charm and quality of all the Maman cafes combined with a spaciousness and a chic downstairs event space. The team there does an impeccable job in collaborating with anyone to bring to life what they want from intimate lunch parties to large celebrations. As a small business owner, the Maman team gives me a creative edge by feeling like an extension of my team!

    Bakery Maman NYC sur la 18ème est un lieu absolument incroyable : trois étages magnifiquement décorés, parfaits pour organiser des événements ! L’endroit est adorable, avec des photos des employés bébés accrochées partout. C’est chaleureux, sublime… et surtout délicieux.
