At less than two months old, Maman in the Plaza at Preston Center represents the New York-based chain’s first Texas location. Founded in 2014 by Benjamin Sormonte and Elisa Marshall, the brand has grown from a single Manhattan café to 50 locations across North America while collecting celebrity fans, a mention from Oprah’s Favorite Things, and many notable partnerships. 

Upon announcing the opening, Plaza at Preston Center shared that co-founder Elisa Marshall saw Dallas as a “perfect fit” for the brand. She also gave a specific nod to our neighborhood’s “blend of charm, appreciation for good food, and beautifully designed spaces.”

Find Maman in the former Trova Wine + Market space at 4004 Villanova Street. The stylishly appointed café and patio are open daily through 6 p.m., serving coffee, pastries, and a menu of modern favorites and French classics inspired by the founders’ childhood memories (maman means “mother” in French). Prices range from $10 – $20 for breakfast entrees, soups, salads, and sandwiches, including the popular “Martha Stewart’s Chicken Club.”
