Miami’s bustling Brickell skyline is about to get a touch of Parisian elegance this week, as the highly anticipated flagship of Maman, the beloved French-inspired café, opens its doors on May 29. Known for its dreamy décor, cult-favorite pastries, and TikTok-viral beverages, Maman’s newest location promises to be a chic new haven for locals and visitors eager to indulge in a little bit of France right in the heart of South Florida.
Situated at 830 Brickell Plaza (or 98 SE 8 St), this isn’t just your average coffee shop. The space is a visual feast—with custom toile-printed espresso machines, vintage furnishings, imported tiles, and even a delightful Lalo kids’ play area. It’s more than a café; it’s a miniature escape to the South of France, without the jet lag.
Brickell-Exclusive Specials to Kick Off the Celebration
To celebrate the grand opening, Maman is rolling out exclusive specials designed to captivate your palate. Among them is the Guava Mint Iced Matcha—a refreshing shaken guava mint lemonade topped with cold-frothed matcha and fresh mint ($7.50 small / $8.50 large). It’s a tropical twist that perfectly embodies Miami’s vibrant vibe. Also debuting is the Guava Beignet—light, sugar-dusted, and generously filled with guava jam ($6), offering a sweet nod to both French tradition and Miami flavor.
More Than Just Coffee and Pastries
Maman isn’t solely about aesthetic appeal and sweet bites—it aims to serve as a versatile community hub. Remote workers can enjoy reliable Wi-Fi in a cozy environment, parents can swing by with their kids, and locals can find a stylish spot for brunch or a casual meet-up. The café offers contactless pickup and delivery through its dedicated app, catering services for private gatherings, and a private event space serving beer and wine—making it perfect for everything from work sessions to celebrations.
A Slice of Europe Meets Miami Magic
Since its debut in Soho, NYC, in 2014, Maman has won hearts nationwide with its seasonal savory dishes, delectable baked goods, and vintage décor inspired by the South of France. With over 45 locations across North America—including spots in Washington D.C., Jersey City, Toronto, and now South Florida—the brand continues to grow while maintaining its focus on quality, warmth, and style.
Founded by Benjamin Sormonte and Elisa Marshall—whose childhood memories in the kitchen and passion for design shaped the brand—Maman is more than a café; it’s a lifestyle. Its offerings include a curated retail collection and the bestselling cookbook Maman: The Cookbook, All Day Recipes to Warm Your Heart (2021).
As Miami welcomes this charming new addition, one thing is clear: Maman’s blend of French flair and Miami magic isn’t just making waves—it’s creating a whole new wave of style and soul in the city.
Come for the coffee, stay for the ambiance, and leave with a little taste of France in your heart.
