We went on a busy Sunday brunch and I'm glad that we did not let the line intimidate us! The service was quick - tables were cleaned and turned smoothly, we found a seat as soon as we ordered. The place is beautiful and the presentation for all the food matches the vibe. The food tasted as great as it looked. Not shown; the separately packed gluten free pastries they offer! For all GF people - all their sandwiches can be made gluten free. read more

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. read more

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. read more

Maman features a dining experience as good as their food! There's an equally number of good sweet and savory menu options, so we chose both. We sampled the almond croissant, zucchini bread, and breakfast sandwich. Everything was the best version of each item I've had, but the breakfast sandwich really blew me away. The bourbon bacon jam and focaccia bun are really something else! The restaurant is deep and features a patio in the back for additional seating. Seating is café-style, with convenient stations throughout for utensils and water. Get there early! We walked in for breakfast at 8:30 on a Saturday and didn't wait much time in line, but by the time we left the line was out the door and down the street. read more

Maman in Georgetown is pure magic. The moment you step inside, you're welcomed by the soft scent of fresh pastries, rustic-chic décor, and a cozy atmosphere that feels like a page out of a French countryside cookbook. I ordered a lavender latte and a slice of quiche, and both were perfection -- balanced, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The Nutty Chocolate Chip Cookie absolutely lived up to the hype (soft, warm, and packed with chocolate and nuts). The staff was incredibly kind and attentive, even during a busy brunch rush. The whole space is bright and inviting, with little details that make you want to linger -- fresh flowers, soft music, and an overall calm that's rare in a busy city. Whether you're grabbing a coffee to go or settling in with a book, Maman Georgetown is the kind of place that makes your day better just by being there. read more

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. read more

I recently visited this cute coffee shop in Georgetown after visiting the one in DC and since the one I wanted to visit in Georgetown was already closed. They were very busy inside and almost all tables we're taken. There was a line inside but only about 2 people in front of me. I really liked their coffee and pastries. The cashiers were nice and good and beverage came out promptly. Bussers and expos are quick to clean tables and taking food to tables. I will definitely be back when visiting Georgetown. read more

Great spot! The interior was elegant, very spacious, well-decorated, had lots of natural light, and had plenty of spots to dine. I had the key lime pie croissant cube which was unique and pretty tasty, along with the mango matcha lemonade (usually not a huge matcha fan but all three components of the drink were so refreshing). I definitely recommend this spot for a nice breakfast/brunch/lunch. read more

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. read more

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. read more

This is such a cute little coffee shop! I've admittedly walked by here a few times without even noticing it. However, once my eyes were drawn inward, the inviting aesthetics of the space is what lured me in. I ordered an iced latte and one of their famous, nutty chocolate chip cookies that made Oprah's favorites thing list (from 2017.) I definitely had no idea this cookie had ever made the list, so great marketing on Maman's because I bought it for that reason only. The cookie was huge and looked delicious, but I wouldn't add it to my favorite things list. It was rich but a bit more dry than I expected so I only ate half before determining that it wasn't worth the extra caloric intake. However, my iced latte was pretty good. Overall, I think I was more in love with the space than the actual items I ordered but at the end of the day I was satisfied and would drop by again if it was convenient. read more

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! read more

Simply amazed by everything this cute bakery chain has to offer. The ingredients were fresh, and the aroma steeping off of this cafe was wonderful.

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. read more

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. read more

This place is very pretty with wonderful food and even better cookies. Unfortunately, it can be quite loud and quite cramped, so talking during a sit-down meal is difficult. I prefer here for takeout pastries and lunches because the overflow of takeout customers waiting on food tends to encroach on the dine-in seating (one time there were people with their backs pressed into the table for 15 minutes waiting on their food). There's a great back area where students love to study, so I would suggest back there for a quieter dining experience! I went again for their participation in the Georgetown French market and they had the best spread of pastries by far. They had a raspberry flower croissant, caprese danish, Nutella brownie, and so much more. Everyone working was so kind and directed the flow of traffic very well My favorite dish so far has been the chocolate chip cookie and the crogel, my roommate loves their version of an Oreo. Definitely recommend stopping in if you're ever in Georgetown! read more

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! read more

I came in on a weekday morning with an order for 5 people for takeout. The girls at the front were friendly and efficient. I myself got the iced matcha latte (with oat milk), farmhouse granola parfait, and make your own omelette (ham, tomato, comte cheese). The make your own omelette gives you a choice of 3 mix-ins. The latte was good and I enjoyed the farmhouse granola parfait. The make your own omelette was good, even after a few hours. The breakfast food order was done within 15 minutes. The basic coffees are given by the cashier/front and the speciality drinks were made in the back bar. The interior design is very nice and there's a good amount of tables in the left side room "the study" and back room. Everything is very "Georgetown priced". read more

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. read more

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

I was really disappointed with the tuna sandwich that I got. It was extremely dry and it felt more like it was chicken rather than tuna. The bread was also pretty hard and difficult to bite into. The chai latte was not as bad though. However, the staff were friendly and ambiance was very nice. read more

The food is delish, the coffee is strong and the vibe is amazing. What's not to love? Great meeting spot!

Arrived on a Saturday at 5:30pm for their happy hour that's advertised as being 4-6pm. They said they weren't doing happy hour but recommended another restaurant in Georgetown that was. We then walked to that restaurant, and they said they didn't do happy hour at all. read more

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! read more

Located on the quieter offshoot of Wisconsin Avenue (steps from Georgetown's iconic, ever-bustling M Street), maman is a Soho-based cafe chain inspired by the founders' mothers hailing from the south of France. A lovely Mediterranean-themed white-and-cobalt blue building marks the cafe's exterior, while the inside carries the same color theme, adorned with rustic wooden tables and chairs and leafy greenery to complete the look of a whimsical, elfin-like space with a neighborhood feel. You can order breakfast/brunch fare after having a seat in their dining area, or you can order up at the front counter, where a variety of delectable pastries sit behind an enticing glass case. Their coffee menu is extensive, and there is something for everyone, from seasonal drinks such as their Apricot & Cardamom Earl Grey Tea Latte to tried-and-true classics like Americanos and Flat Whites. There is a small cafe area off to the side where you can work on laptops while enjoying a drink and a pastry. I ordered their special Paris to New York Croissant ($6), which comes with "a decadent chocolate cookie nestled inside a croissant, topped with layers of hazelnut chocolate spread, white corn chocolate, & crushed hazelnuts." I asked for it to be heated up, and they were more than happy to do so; upon taking the pastry out of the toaster, the barista accidentally set it down too hard, and the cookie actually fell through the outer croissant layer! He was so kind and heated up another one, even though I told him I didn't mind taking the broken one. The chocolate cookie inside is so dense and fudgy that it almost borders on being a brownie, generously studded with melty chocolate chips and slathered with that Nutella-like spread. The croissant is solid if not stellar - I mean, it's buttery, flaky pastry...what's not to love? I couldn't really taste the white corn chocolate (but you can definitely see it on top), but the crushed hazelnuts added a lovely textural element to the pastry. It was so rich and decadent that I couldn't finish it, but it was certainly unique and delicious! Most of the coffee items and pastries range from $4-7 here, which is pretty reasonable given Georgetown's location, as well as the high amount of competition in the area. I can't speak for the breakfast/brunch sit-down menu, but it looks delicious, and I saw many people enjoying their food. There's a wide range of options in the $10-20 range, from standard breakfast fare (think omelettes, waffles, and breakfast sandwiches) to healthier options (e.g. avocado toast, granola parfaits, etc.) to creations unique to maman (Everything Croissant & Salmon Sandwich, or "Croque Maman", anyone?). I used the noshd app, which is a sister platform to the popular inKind app. Both apps aim to make dining out more accessible through providing rewards and savings to a variety of restaurants and cafes, though noshd is more specifically for students. Due to a special going on during Finals Week, I actually got this pastry for free (I only paid tax + tip of $1)! Ultimately, I think that maman is worth paying full-price for, as its pastries are unique and delicious, the ambiance is stellar, and service is fast and friendly - a definite recommendation for a cute cafe if you're in the area! read more

Similar to the Bethesda location which I've been to, but more of a crowd since this one just opened. There's so much seating available, and an outdoor patio in the back. We came on a weekday and everything had to be ordered at the register and you'd receive a number for the employees to bring your order to you. There was a line but it moved quickly. Tables are first come first serve. Employees did a really good job of clearing tables when people left so open spots were easy to find. I've had my order before but I got the chai latte and Nutella brownie. Both were really good. There's also a separate study section that's meant for people who may be working remotely or studying which is very convenient. It's not meant as a space to talk and meet with friends. Overall it's a great space and good food. Since they just opened several bakery items were sold out quick, so be sure to arrive early. read more

This spot has very yummy sweet and savory pastries. It can get busy. Go on a weekday after 9 to avoid the wait.

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. read more

Beware ! This place will rip you off! I ordered and paid for a Large Martha's red iced tea but only received a Small sized one. I know it was a small because it was the same size cup as the Small honeymoon tahini iced coffee my daughter ordered at the same time. Next time (IF I return) I'll just order and pay for a Small since there's apparently no difference between that and a more expensive Large! Frustrating!!! read more

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. read more

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. read more
