Just looking at the interior of this cafe made me really happy! I love the kinds of plates and cups they use and I thought the cashier was very kind too. Make sure to get the pistachio chocolate croissant! It was so soft, flaky and delicious and it paired so well with a nice cup of hot black tea. Also this place was a quick 5min walk from the metro station and it wasn't too crowded on a Friday around 4pm. read more

Love the ambiance, loooved the citrus olive oil loaf cake, service was good, and they make a great vanilla latte. Wish I lived closer.

I decided to spend an afternoon at Maman to get some work done. Although crowded, the energy was wonderful for some background noise to work and I had no problem getting a table to sit at. The WiFi was strong and great to get some things done. I definitely will return. read more

Cute little coffee shop that offers small plates and pastries. I enjoyed the coffee here alongside the breakfast sandwich that I got. It gets quite busy in the mornings so expect a line. The inside of the establishment is cozy and has a homey vibe. Overall a great experience. read more

Love the ambiance and their matcha was really good. We got their pastries... the Oprah's favorite cookies- recommended. The caramel brownie- recommended too. The Housemade oreo- I wouldn't get it again. Friendly staff and our food and drink were handled with care. We will be returning!! read more

Maman! Really wanted to like this place after seeing the one in union market. But I had the green shakshuka here at the navy yard location and it was awful! Worst shakshuka I have ever had! It was basically a bag of defrosted frozen kale with eggs and feta and olives on top - I didn't even finish eating it. Come on Maman - you can do better. Staff was lovely and the setting is nice. read more

This place is so pretty and would be a great event space but I'm never impressed by their baked goods as pretty as they look! The breakfast sandwich is okay but I always have to make modifications to fit my taste (replacing the runny egg with scrambled and removing avocado). read more

Beautiful place, excellent food and service. Love the coffee and the atmosphere and ambiance is the best!

A place more concerned with vibes than food or service. Spent all their effort decorating and forgot to learn how to make a pastry. Everything here is pretty, almost nothing is tasty. I have now been here about 10 times. I keep coming back hoping they have gotten it together and improved. Sadly they have not. I really wanted to like this place, but man if you are a French patisserie and your croissants are worse than frozen Trader Joe's ones, you really have lost the plot. The only redeeming food item is the quiche, which is typically good, but inconsistent in quality. The one I had today was poorly made and the crust was not properly sealed. Overall hugely disappointing. I was excited to see a "legit" bakery open in Navy Yard with a good looking menu and a comfortable environment. They may survive if a Tatte doesn't open up here. If they ever see real competition, they are toast. read more

Cute little coffee shop, bakery and restaurant tied into one. It has a French theme, right down to the dishes and color scheme. I ordered a house brew and cinnamon roll, which were both delicious. Service was meh, hence the -1 star. I wish I were in the DC area longer, as I would be a frequent customer! read more

Service was good. We didn't try any food but the seasonal drink we had was delicious.

Such a great spot! The coffee is delicious, and the food is amazing but the only downside is that the tables are never cleaned after use. I often end up clearing away used plates and utensils myself before sitting down. Despite that, I absolutely love Maman! It's still one of my favorite places." read more

We visited the DC location while therefore a celebration of life at Arlington, National Cemetery, and everything about this place was just fantastic! Such an eclectic selection of food and coffees and lattes and espresso, and you name it they had it. I wish I had taken a photo of my breakfast to share with everyone on this site. I absolutely recommend this place! read more

Great service and yummy quiche (several options!) and pastries. Nice to see vegan and gluten free choices along with Oprah's favorite cookie, the nutty chocolate chip. Drinks were good, too -- the lavender honey latte has a very nice flavor. read more

I love the maman aesthetic! They have a nice selection of pastries and delicious drip coffee. Great cafe to catch up with a friend or do some work. read more

The matcha here is top tier. It is amazing. We got the seasonal cherry blossom matcha and it was some of the best I've ever had. We also got the cherry blossom seasonal croissant. It was also very very good. read more

Maman is always a vibe! Their coffee is good and their pastries are always great! Staff like Maria Paula always keep the cafe clean and vibrant! read more

Desserts I had were trash and were thrown out. I tried the Nutella beignet, the beachball, and the key lime cronut cube. They looked so pretty but taste and texture was way off. The banana caramel iced latte however was very good. read more

Great spot to post up with a laptop and hang out over a coffee. If you're into sweets, the baked goods selection is extensive and fresh. They have a happy hour for cocktails at a decent price that I'd like to come back and try. The ambience is open and inviting, tidy and clean, and the wait staff is efficient and friendly. read more

Order then sit down style breakfast joint. Quiche was served lukewarm and brreakfas tsandwich on croissant good. Great capaccino.

Paloma is fantastic, and provided helpful insight regarding the menu. Loved my latte, and I can't wait for my next visit!

Outstanding breakfast sandwich. Avocado, egg-sunny side up. Caramelized onions, etc. Came here to work for a few and leave but between the food, ambiance (lots of natural light and windows) and plugs/tables to accommodate my set-up I may have to stay longer to further "inspect" their menu. Definitely back tomorrow. read more

One of my work friends excitedly alerted me to this newly opened French cafe, and specifically requested that I wait to go with him for the first time. Once I looked at the menu, I couldn't wait to try it out! By the time my coworker finally coordinated his office day to coincide with mine, I had been there four times with other friends and even had two business lunches, it's that good! Considering the abundance of amazing restaurants in DC, this French cafe is a wonderful addition. The interior decor is beautiful, love the couch setup, as well as the more formal dining. The selection of food is great and the service excellent. Welcome to the neighborhood! read more

Wow! I found my new favorite coffee shop in the area. The coffee was amazing and the pastries, specifically the almond croissant, were delicious. The porcelain coffee mugs and plates add to the ambiance that is already extremely pleasing to experience. You can easily get lost in the wonderful easy going environment this place features and the service was fantastic. Will definitely be coming here regularly. read more

Beautiful place, great for a coffee and a quick bite, but don't waste your money on the proper cooked food here. There are far better places in Navy Yard and DC. Having been to a wonderful - and delicious - Maman in Jersey City, I brought my mum and dad here who were visiting me, for their first breakfast of their stay. I wish I hadn't. The food was cold, undercooked and/or lacking in flavour. We had to send two out of three breakfast dishes back. Extremely disappointing for a new place in the neighbourhood that has brilliant stores countrywide. read more

Maman's was a great place for brunch! Coming in on a rainy day, Maman had a warm, spring feel with their floral decor. The food was delicious and came out within minutes. I highly recommend the kouign maman as a sweet pastry. We will definitely be back! read more

Great spot. However. Spent 50.00 for breakfast there and when I asked for a "to-go" refill of coffee they proceeded to charge me 5.00 for it. A tad tacky for a place like this. That kind of ruined it for me. read more

Delightful bakery and cafe. Wonderful decor and lots of seating. Quiche, scone and coffee were excellent. Sad that I don't live nearby - I would go every day (and perhaps weigh a bit more ) read more

Very cute, it's in a great area. I got the iced tea and loved it. Filled with plants, very aesthetic and great for doing work.

Maman has amazing croissants and coffee - also approved by my 9 yo son who said it was his dream. Beautiful interior!

I rarely post any reviews, but today is the day. Whenever in the Navy Yard area, I frequent this place often for coffee and pastries. The overall ambience and coffee have always been great and amazing, but the service needs A LOT of improvement. Earlier, I ordered two separate boxes of cookies via online ordering, and as I entered to see where it can be picked up, that's when my experience with service became such a turn off. I have always read some of those reviews before, and have been subjected to several instances confirming that, but I always took the side of understanding where they are coming from, or perhaps they were having a bad day. But today is different. First, I approached the coffee pick up area. I understand the baristas were busy, so I quickly asked where I can pick up. Before I finished my sentence, he pointed to the other side. On the other side, I did go. When I saw a second person and asked that I ordered cookies for pick up, he just pointed me to the doordash pick up area, without even asking what order. No warmth or helpful notes at all. Lastly, and there I was, a tall man wearing a denim longsleeved shirt (maybe the manager) was there. He was warm and welcoming, until I told him I have 2 gift boxes to be picked up. That's when he changed his demeanor and said that he has them there because I had asked for it to be put in a paperbag, when I asked for a gift box. He then said "you confused the hell of us" when I put that in the notes. I simply said that I wanted the box, but had asked for a paperbag to bring them with me. In addition, he then said that my ordering was confusing because apparently, I chose nutty and oatmeal. I told him, my order is clear, and it's your system. I also said that he can put them all in the box and I can wait as I am not in a hurry. Being scolded and blamed for 1) a basic misunderstanding that could have been easily clarified and 2) for an error in your online ordering had are both lacking in client care and customer service. I love supporting cafes and the service industry, but instances like this that make customers feel bad and be treated without care is making me think twice of going here. I hope that the team, no matter how different cultural backgrounds are, learn how to provide respectful and decent communication for all their clients. While the coffee is great, service and care are part of the overall experience -- I hope you all don't forget that. Note that I am only writing this 1-star review because of this experience. read more

I love this place! The coffee is great -- I'm a black coffee person, so I can't speak to their lattes. They also have an awesome selection of sweet and savory pastries! I tried their ham and cheese croissant and it was delicious -- perfectly flaky. They also have an awesome ambiance it's very pretty inside -- very "instagram worthy" if that's your thing and I love their pretty to go cups. read more
