10/10 LOVE this place. This is my favorite location of the beautiful French bakery/cafe Maman. Go here for the pastries and food, they’re equally divine, but this location is special because it shares the space with a Paper Source! Great for your cute stationary needs! It’s an all-in-one fantastic location for seating as well - there’s plenty of it, and the space is airy with plants and an industrial pre-war building feel — very “Tribeca” in ambiance. I can never choose which pastry to go for. But Oprah loves their chocolate chip cookie (see Oprahs picks list), and I can see why. If you’re a brownie head, get their Nutella caramel brownie, you will not be disappointed! Or if like me you can’t pass up a croissant, try their strawberry almond croissant. And stay a while, come for lunch! They have quiche and other healthier options for the midday crowd.
