" Maman is a charming café with a great range of pastries and coffee. I love how they focus on fresh ingredients, which truly elevates the experience. I got the mocha and it was the best mocha I’ve had. The croissants were light and fluffy, full of flavor. I just hope they can keep up with the demand as it gets busier. Overall, an A+ experience!

The setup is inviting and very pretty, perfect for photos! I was served promptly, although there were quite a few people. Prices are a bit on the high side, but I think it’s worth it for the quality. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to check out Maman after hearing all the hype. The place is beautifully decorated and gives off a nice vibe! I tried the breakfast sandwich which was solid, but the real winners here are the pastries. I’d come back without a doubt for a sweet treat and definitely recommend it to anyone in Princeton. A fantastic spot to unwind with a warm drink! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely brunch here recently with my best friend. The pastries were fresh and delightful, especially the orange olive oil cake. The space was vibrant, filled with cozy nooks perfect for conversation. Service was attentive without being intrusive. Just when we thought it couldn't get better, the coffee arrived—rich and flavorful. I will definitely be a regular! " (*Curated Review*)
