Absolutely incredible cafe. Lovely service and really delicious food. Fresh food. Drinks were very good and not overly sweet. The steak sandwich was really a standout as well. I really do like a cafe model where it's relatively casual but still you still are served at your table. With that in mind, depending on the time of day it's not the best play to relax and do work as it gets very busy.

Adorable, beautifully decorated restaurant. We were greeted at the door and they say us quickly. Our food and coffee came out quickly as well and the food was delicious! Love it here! I'll definitely return! Julian was an excellent waiter and took great care of us!

We visited with friends and thoroughly enjoyed every dish we tried. The atmosphere was absolutely beautiful—elegant and beautifully designed. I loved the overall vibe of the place. The food, coffee, and the entire experience were simply fantastic. Highly recommend!

What a lovely cafe! Even the plates are picture-worthy. My sister and I went during the lunch rush on a Saturday and still managed to get seated right away. The food was incredible, and Gavin, our server, was such a gracious host. The prices were expected and worth it for such a great experience altogether.

The hostesses were delightful and super helpful! Our server Chris was wonderful! Helped ask about what allergies we have and saved me from accidentally having a horrible allergic reaction. Then was able to help suggest something amazing that we could safely eat! Everything was delicious and the atmosphere was beautiful and peaceful. Will be coming back very soon!

My daughter and I went on a Saturday around noon. I had a chocolate croissant which could have been better. It wasn’t that warm and it wasn’t that crispy. I had the tomato soup which I did like, but it should come with a piece of bread. My daughter had an egg sandwich which could’ve been a lot better. We also had lattes which could’ve been better too. I don’t know that I would highly recommend this restaurant. I will say service was good and we set family style, which was nice too.

We had a delicious brunch on a Sunday. We ordered the steak sandwich, salmon croissant and tuna sandwich. Our server Camilo was extremely nice and helpful, he gave us great recommendations. We enjoyed the chocolate chip and lemon poppy seed cookies and they were delicious.

Really enjoyed our visit to Maman Caffe! The place feels so cozy and welcoming. The cashier was very friendly and accommodating, which made the experience even better. We ordered the orange pistachio loaf (so delicious!) and the Sarah quiche, which was absolutely amazing. The latte was also really good—smooth and well-balanced. Perfect spot to relax and enjoy a great meal. Highly recommend!!

This location is super cute. The line was out the door but moved quickly. The coffee was good. I would visit again.

Coffee Shop No. 463 Maman Georgetown, DC January 24, 2025 Maman might be my favorite cafe in the DMV area; in regard to ambience and setting. I didn't get to stay as long as I would have liked, but just a few minutes in the cafe and you can tell it set apart from other places. The lighting is bright and feels natural. The decor is spectacular reminding me of a cottage. The detail in the shop keeps you wanting to explore and look around. Catching my eye were the blue white china/dishes the food and drinks were served on. Maman's espresso maker and their disposable coffee cups were wrapped in a pattern similar to the dishes. The pictures hung made the cafe feel homey and cozy. The light fixtures over the purchasing counter were very unique. I think they were meant to look like wasp nests, but please correct me if I am wrong. The service was fabulous. The young lady taking my order was very friendly and helpful when I couldn't decide on a cookie to go with my cortado. The lady making the espresso drinks at the back counter was very impressive. She was whipping out drinks like a pro. The cortado was delicious. I will definitely be returning to this shop for more than a coffee drink. The menu and the food carried out from the kitchen looked fabulous. Enjoying life one cortado at a time!

It's was decent. The vibe was nice but the food is very mediocre. My friends iced matcha was horrible and wasn't properly made (clumps of matcha throughout the drink). My latte was decent but not worth the price IMO. There are better and cheaper coffee places near by. This is the type of place I recommend for a quick study break but wouldn't recommend planning on sitting down and eating here with how busy it gets. My friends both had sandwiches with their drinks and both seemed to be pretty good. Recommend getting some sort of sandwich and maybe an iced latte or coffee for an enjoyable meal.

Went here on a Saturday morning for brunch. Parking was difficult. Found a spot few blocks away. It was busy but it took only less than 5 minutes to get seated. Tried black coffee and Andrea's everything croissant & salmon sandwich which was a toasted croissant with smoked salmon, cucumber, pickled onions, and lemon whipped cream cheese. It's okay. I think nothing special. Pistachio chocolate croissant was heavenly. The contrasting creamy filling inside and the crunch from the pistachio outside made it very, very good. Yummy. Closer to lunch time, the place and the staff became busier. Nobody checked in on us and we even had to get their attention just to check out.

I came here on a Sunday afternoon and the place was packed. Despite that, you are able to go in and order from the counter for things to go. I got the blueberry goat cheese scone which was absolutely fantastic. I also got a latte which was solid. This was a great place to stop and grab something to go, and they have a lot of different baked goods so I would go back and try those.

Cute cafe for catching up with a friend, taking a shopping break, or remote work if you're not taking calls. Came here at the tail end of the heatwave during the summer. Decor feels like you're inside a rustic garden and great for photos. Plenty of seating especially in the back. Service is friendly and accommodating. We got some drinks (they even have cocktails!) and they tasted great. Will be one of my regular spots to relax after shopping in Georgetown!

The location was a bit cramped with so many people and the staff felt understaffed. There were several tables that needed to be cleaned before we could sit down. The atmosphere is cute though with country French. Ordered the new seaonsal drink centre st's whipped cinnamon honey cappuccino and a honey lavender latte. The cappacinno was a really sweet but the latte was just right. Also had a banana walnut bread that was super moist.

FOOD I tried Katie's chicken sandwich, and it was fantastic. The chicken was moist and flavorful, complemented perfectly by the basil aioli. The bread added a satisfying crunch that contrasted beautifully with the tender chicken. DRINKS Their pumpkin spice latte was creamy and brimming with flavor. It had just the right amount of pumpkin sauce without being overly sweet--a perfect fall classic! SERVICE The staff are kind and friendly. AMBIANCE The store may look small from the outside, but the interior is surprisingly spacious. It offers plenty of room to either catch up with friends or work comfortably, with seating options available both inside and outside. PARKING There are parking lots nearby, as well as street parking with metered, hourly, or daily options.

Solid and large coffee shop with French-ish sandwiches, salads, and pastries. I had the roast beef sandwich with arugula, tahini yoghurt, zaatar, mint, and pickled onion. Small amount of beef but flavors were balanced and the bread was toasted. I thought it was good but pricey. The croque madame was disappointing. Not griddled enough, egg came on the side so you have to input it yourself. It was just a pretty boring and cold ham and cheese sandwich.

this was my first time at maman and i will 100% be coming back! i came at 1230pm on a sunday and it was crowded. luckily as a party of 1 i got a seat at a counter right away. my service was good and my food came within 10 min. they have lots of options on their menu and certainly something for everyone. at the very least, their pastry case will certainly not leave you hungry!!! my salad was tasty, my chai was hot fresh and delicious, and the seasonal pumpkin cube croissant was absolutely fabulous. it looked good AND tasted good. light, airy, fresh-feeling vibes. not a huge place but it's prime real estate in downtown georgetown. they have a couple tables outside too. i paid w/ inkind and got $10 off so that was a treat. i think things were averagely priced for an upscale cafe. already planning my next visit :)

A classic Georgetown spot for brunch. I love the vibes here, it has tons of natural light and seating. The service here is quick and they are extremely kind. If you're coming on a weekend, keep in mind that it's regular brunch and you cannot work here. The nutty chocolate cookie is a must buy.

This bakery has so many varieties to choose from and a lot of seating area. All the staff were friendly and the foods and the drinks were so delicious! I tried Jasmin Mist tea this time and it has great jasmine flavored green tea. I'll try coffee drinks or some specialty drinks next time. The Maman's strawberry & cream beachball and the Catalina's veggie sandwich were awesome!!

Great pastries selection. Good coffee. Plenty of seating. Beautiful place. Must visit.

Born in New York City, Maman is the latest East Coast coffee shop and bakery taking D.C. by storm. (Examples- Boston's Tatte, New York City's Mah Ze Dahr, etc.) Now with several locations in the D.C. area, this location is as beautifully designed as any. It may look narrow, but it goes back deep with plenty of seating with outlets and wifi (password is "ilovemaman"). I enjoy their coffee drinks and their chai is nice. They have a large array of pastries and you really can't go wrong.

My first time here and will not go back. They do say vegan options but what they mean is overnight oatmeal for $12! And it was very small. I don't know why they insist on saying they have vegan options. Just don't lie please. I think this place it's just a name. Food is less than average. Service is slow. I was with a group of colleagues who wanted to try this place. None of us (vegans and non-vegans) would go back.

Stumbled upon this cafe on our trip to DC. Very spacious and well maintained inside. Tons of options to pick from for baked goods and coffee/tea. The workers were friendly and service was super fast. All the drinks and baked goods were delicious. Highly recommend to check them out!

I tried the most incredible pastries. The coffee was also had a rich flavor that felt velvety on the tongue. My only complaint is that I wish they sold larger bags of whole beans. The interior made you feel like you were in a beautiful French country home. Service was fast and coffee order came out quickly.

I really enjoyed my meal here! It was very delicious, fresh, and filling. The restaurant is very cute too and the service was good! Would come back here!

Service was awesome and I loved the peppermint matcha! The Mac and cheese croissant was delicious but a bit on the drier end. The cafe was decorated beautifully.

I LOVE THIS location of Maman. The inside is so ambient and cute, there is a clean blue aesthetic and the service is fast. If you choose to dine in, they serve everything on beautiful white and blue porcelain dishes. My favorite thing they have is the blueberry goat cheese scone. I get one every time I come. The matcha is also very tasty and I recommend enjoying their hot coffee selection at a table and savoring the environment. Go have a cute coffee moment for yourself!

Charming French bakery/cafe with attractive pastries that taste as good as they look. Not always an easy feat to pull off. I had my first "croissant-cake" offering here. It's a unique creation that I was skeptical about; just couldn't believe that a croissant, which is difficult enough to produce, could be baked into something else with success and still taste yummy, but Maman has done just that. I recommend the orange chocolate cheesecake croissant cube, it's pretty fab. Oprah Winfrey deems that one of Maman's cookies, the nutty chocolate chip, is among her "Favorite Things". I couldn't agree more: it's rich and wonderfully gooey. Coffee is fixed to order and excellent. This Georgetown spot is bright, botanical, and inviting. I enjoy both the food and ambiance found within. Bien joue!

Very inspired dining nook in Georgetown. Cafe vibe with flair. Bkfst sandwiches we had were very good.

Great food, excellent service, and a fantastic atmosphere! Our experience was enjoyable from start to finish, with attentive staff and delicious meals. The place is also beautifully designed and well-maintained. Definitely worth a visit!

Cute decor and ambiance. Tables for one or two works. Super happy to have the weekend ratatouille which was excellent for my day walking around the campus and neighborhood.

A cute, cozy cafe with lots of seating and great staff! Had their quiche and a cappuccino here and they were both amazing! Even when this place is busy, seating usually quickly becomes available and the staff is quick to help you get seated! Also, they have lots of french pastries to choose from and a lovely menu for a slightly more substantial meal.

Super sure cafe with good coffee. I really enjoyed my time at the cafe, the decor is nice and the staff is great.

Maman is a solid 4 stars! Super cute café with a Parisian garden vibe. My husband and I waltzed in here on a Monday morning around 10:30 and the place was slammed. Thankfully, we found a table for 2 nestled just before you get to the coffee bar in the back. We ordered a decaf mocha, a flat white, a chocolate covered pretzel croissant (5/5 on this one), avocado toast and a cinnamon bun/roll. The coffees were delicious. The avocado toast was so-so and the cinnamon roll was dry as a bone. Would not get either of these items again. The service was also really great and despite it looking like you may have to bus your own tables here, the service staff came and cleared a few plates as we finished them. I thought that was a nice touch! One thing to note, this place doesn't really accommodate larger folks. (I am not speaking of myself, but to be aware of any and all walks of life is necessary in the restaurant business). The tables are VERY close together, so it really doesn't allow for much space around you. FYI. I would return and I know the items I would pick here. A delightful spot for a coffee and some conversation!

I do love it here! The vibes are light and airy, and the upstairs is perfect for remote work (and you'll see a lot of us staring at our laptops up there!). Love the coffee, lattes are my favorite, basic but so good. They have tons of other more fun options too! Food is always . I love their turkey sandwhich with bacon, avocado, kale, and a red pepper sauce. It's toasted and perfectly creamy.

The place is nice. Staff is super friendly, not only to us but I saw them having kind conversations with regulars. Food is good, we just stopped by for a quick snack and coffee, the little table next to the stairs where they sat us it's an odd spot tbh, but the experience was good overall.

I was pleasantly surprised by the curried sweet potato soup. A little comforting hug in a bowl. I asked for a mocktail, and tbh I wasn't blown away. Maybe I should've stuck with coffee? Pastries were ok. I wanted my mouth to break from the goodness, but alas, this was not to be. It's cute, and def a popular spot in the hood. Service isn't great, gotta keep it real. I honestly think they are understaffed (servers), and this is not cool. So, they could provided more attentive service, but they are slammed, so they do the best they can.

Had three different salads No cons :) Service was slow. Maybe b/c it's a Sunday noon, we (3 people) waited for 30 mins to be seated. Once you walk in, you will find the place is actually big (long row house) and it's quieter in the back.

What an adorable coffee shop/bakery nestled in the Navy Yard! I was immediately taken with all the floral accents and the antique French decor of the space... tea party vibes! I came in to kill some time so I ordered a cappuccino and the curried egg salad tartine. Food and service were great. Surprisingly I found the place to be quiet, peaceful and not very loud. I would love to see a maman open in Tampa!

Ordered the youki turkey club sandwich and it was pretty average. There was a thin layer of turkey in it and barely any kale. In the entire sandwich, there was one small, thin piece of kale that was eaten in one bite of the sandwich. I also didn't love the aioli it came with and the bacon was soggy. However their pastries did look really good which is what I think they're more known for.

I loved the nutty chocolate chip cookie. I also loved the pineapple mango croissant. It was not too sweet and so flaky. We came on a saturday late morning and it was so crowded and busy. There may be a wait for a line during busy times but we just got takeout.

This place is so cute!! They have so many yummy pastries to pick from I couldn't decide. I ended up getting the orange chocolate cheesecake croissant cube which was a bit heavy but still delicious. The iced latte is a classic as well. There were a lot of people which made it kind of hard to sit and enjoy my pastry but eventually found some first come first serve seating outside.

Food was great. Getting the order in and grabbing the check is a bit slow cause of how crowded it was inside.

Pretty good food and drinks Nothing special, however, for its higher price Ambiance is aesthetic though

Came on a Saturday afternoon and waited 5-10 min. We were seated at the community table (party of 3) which was fine. I had the crogel which was absolutely delicious. We also shared the famous nutty chocolate chip cookie but the entire bottom was burnt so I was pretty disappointed. I could tell it would've been delicious otherwise. My friend and I also ordered cookie granola lattes (a limited time collab with Purely Elizabeth). This was where things got weird. They brought out our lattes and they tasted like plain lattes, no sweetness or flavors. We inquired with the waiter and he brought over the barista, both of whom told us that the lattes were as ordered. We questioned why there was no flavor or even granola visible on top as advertised. They then mentioned they were out of the granola. A few minutes later the waiter came back and said "I know what you're missing!" He brought us little containers of granola butter. And then finally, a few minutes after that, he brought us the sample packs of granola that should be given out with the latte. It was such a weird experience and totally understand that mistakes happen, but instead of owning up to it, they gaslit us and essentially tried to cover it up at first by saying we were not tasting the lattes correctly. The latte itself, even with the granola butter additions, was very average and not worth $7 in my opinion. Overall, I still give it 4 stars because the crogel was absolutely delicious and I look forward to trying other items!

Cons: the service here is terrible! The hostess convinced us to sit at this table with these four teenagers. He had tried to get this other couple to take these seats, but they refused And then, when the parents of the teenagers showed up, the hostess made us get up and sit at another bar in the back. So annoyed. If this had happened in a restaurant, then they would've comped us a dessert or something. So then we sat in the back on these really uncomfortable barstool, and we weren't the only ones complaining about it because some guy next to us said that they made his back hurt. That they sat us in needs more soundproofing. I ordered a sparkling water and they didn't bring it to me till the end of the meal when I asked for it a third time. And they brought it to me without a glass, so I drank it right out the glass bottle. Very classy. Pros: the food is really good. So good I would come back. I think I had an avocado toast with smoked salmon. My friend had a chicken salad sandwich.

The food is very good. Always fresh and delicious! The coffee and lattes are okay. The service is always wonderful- especially Washington! He is always so kind to me and my sons.

i came here for brunch on a saturday and waited ~20 minutes for a table for 2. the wait wasn't too bad as we were able to leave the restaurant and explore some stores in the area while waiting. i really liked the white brick wall with plants vibes of the interior, it made for a great ambiance. i had heard great things about the cookies, so i tried the nutty chocolate chip cookie, but unfortunately it didn't quite hit the spot. i also tried the seasonal frozen forest matcha latte and i could barely taste the non-matcha part. i really liked the papa's breakfast bowl, though -- it felt quite warm/homey :,) we sat at a small circular table, which i felt was a little too small. overall, i would come back for brunch but am less sure about the drinks/pastries.

This place is ridiculously cute. We stopped in to pick up coffee and some pastries and we wished we had grabbed a table to enjoy it there. Highly recommend the PBJ cruffin. My partner said the chocolate and pistachio croissant was great too. Service was great - the staff was very accommodating to milk swaps and questions from us.

Nice stop over for coffee and pastries as we shopped in Georgetown today. The place looks small but it is expansive as there are multiple back rooms. Bright airy and contemporary, the vibe is great. We had the chef's basket of selected pastries and different coffee drinks, however the rhubarb frozen drink sounded amazing. For brunch, light bites, and drinks, stop in to Maman!

We stopped in for brunch on a Monday. Overall, our experience was just fine. The good: - Service was amazing; the employee at the register was helpful, the food runners made sure we had everything we needed, and our table was consistently bussed. - The presentation of our food was gorgeous - Ambiance and decor was picturesque The meh: - The taste and texture of everything was lacking - The cortado was fairly bitter, although not terrible. It tasted as though it had some sort of spices in it, which I liked. - The mango-pineapple croissant roll had soggy pastry with no croissant-crunch, and the mango was kind of mashed into a coin-shaped puree at the bottom of the pastry. The mango not nearly sweet enough, and had a strange flavor and texture. The pineapple was quite good though. - The banoffee cruffin had great banana and caramel-y flavors, but again was missing the crunch you'd expect from such a pastry. - The breakfast sandwich overall was decent, but would have been better with one instead of two eggs. The caramelized onions had too strong of a vinegar flavor. - Pricing is steep, so I'd expect the food to be better for what we paid.

I'll say it over and over - having happy, kind employees always takes my experience over the top. Our young server Ben was bright, on-the-spot, helpful and off to NYC in a few days for his first full time job. In a bustling cafe he was a joy to have as was my food. I had the farro bowl with avocado, and unique cacao red chile pepper sauce. I didn't use much but it provided an interesting spicy twist to an wonderful and favorite combination of breakfast elements. My London Fog was also great with unsweetened almond milk and it was a beautiful, fun, open garden-like space. Fantastic all the way around.

Enjoyed a cappuccino and breakfast with a friend recently. A nice place to meet in Georgetown and enjoy the tasty treats.

Delicious coffee and cake. Friendly service. Nice looking and feeling interior. I'm docking a star only because it was very difficult to get a table because of the many laptop users (at 4pm). I hope they are eating and drinking plenty!

Pros: The place is Cute AF and the coffee is pretty good. Cons: Not all areas are wheelchair accessible and It was super crowded so it was hard to get around. The back room (not wheelchair accessible) is much quieter than the front area.

$9.60 for a large hot chocolate with almond milk. Worse than San Francisco prices! That's highway robbery
