From our beloved regulars
Maman is a great brunch/lunch spot! The staff is super efficient and friendly, especially Aviya, who offered her help while we were enjoying our meal. Great indoor and outdoor seating, and the best part are the fresh pastries!
Great brunch spot! The waffle was delicious and beautifully served, and the cookie was really good too. Cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and a lovely place to relax. Highly recommend!
I visited with my family during our trip, and we really enjoyed it! The coffee was delicious, the atmosphere was cool and comfortable, and the staff were very friendly. Highly recommend! 😊
We had a fabolous breakfast here. Amazing food and beautiful space, well lit and just a great experience overall. Thanks Aviya for being so helpful with our order and great customer service.
I’ve been to Maman in Princeton a few times now, and it never disappoints. The atmosphere is always warm, cozy, and effortlessly chic — such a great spot to catch up with friends, enjoy a solo coffee date, or even spend a productive work day. It has that perfect balance of calm and creative energy. This time I ordered the Martha Stewart Pomegranate Punch, the lavender honey latte, and the chickpea & quinoa bowl — and everything was amazing. The punch was refreshing and perfectly balanced, the latte had the most comforting floral sweetness, and the bowl was fresh, flavorful, and so satisfying. As always, I’ll definitely be back!
Great place. The workers were very friendly. And all the food looks delicious. I just had the cappuccino today but will get more next time.
Food is great and service is super friendly! Avia especially was very kind. For the summer specials, the banana pudding iced matcha latte summer special was a perfect sweet treat, while the Martha Stewart's passionfruit green tea Palmer was refreshing and not too sweet.
Felt like I stepped into a little Paris café ☕️✨ The vibes, the pastries, the coffee… 10/10 Loved the atmosphere at maman. Super cozy and aesthetic, perfect for photos, coffee dates, or studying. The pastries were really good and the drinks were fun and unique
The best cafe ambience in Princeton by far. Their drinks and treats are nice, but loved their indoor aesthetic. I loved their hazelnut latte and crème brûlée lemon curd croissant. This is one of my favorite places to hang out at by campus.
Came here for brunch. This consistently bustling business had a very pleasant atmosphere. It was accommodating to all ages. The service was top notch. Establishment is kept very clean. I ordered an everything croissant, a Caesar wrap and maman’s almond croissant latte. This is my second visit here, never disappointed.
