A French cafe chain from New York is bringing its fancy fare to Southlake: Maman<\/a>, a celebrated spot with coffee and brand-name pastries, will open a location at 1161 E. Southlake Blvd. in the Park Village shopping center.<\/p>\n

The cafe will reportedly<\/a> begin construction on the existing 2,571-square-foot space in early October, with a planned opening in late January 2027.<\/p>\n

Park Village confirmed the news in a September 12 Facebook post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Something d\u00e9licieux is coming to Park Village! Maman is officially on the way, and work is already underway on its new space,” the post said. “Known for its charming atmosphere, French-inspired favorites and beloved coffee and pastries, Maman will soon bring a little taste of France to Southlake.”<\/p>\n

Southlake is the brand’s first Tarrant County location and sixth Dallas-Fort Worth cafe.<\/p>\n

Founded in New York’s Soho in 2014 by partners Elisa Marshall and Benjamin Sormonte, Maman has grown to about 60 locations across the U.S. and Canada.<\/p>\n

The company made its Texas debut in November 2025 with a cafe<\/a> at The Plaza at Preston Center in Dallas, followed by a Lakewood<\/a> location that opened earlier this year and a Plano<\/a> location that opened in August. Another location<\/a> is planned at Fields West in Frisco, as well as in Dallas’ Casa Linda Center<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Maman cafes are open during daylight hours with coffee, breakfast and lunch: espresso drinks, tea, and pastries such as croissants, kouign maman, Bundt cakes, tea cakes, and cookies. Heartier breakfast and lunch items include quiche, a breakfast bowl, chicken Caesar wrap, and Mediterranean steak sandwich.<\/p>\n

Their drinks can be elaborate with rarefied ingredients; for example, a vanilla honey butter latte with sweet corn foam and cornbread crumbs, or a salted tahini honeycomb latte.<\/p>\n

The Plano location just opened with a few local exclusives, including:<\/p>\n

Magnolia Sweet Tea Fizz: Cold-steeped magnolia bud tea with Topo Chico, Texas wildflower honey syrup, lemon, and mint.Lone Star Cinnamon Bun: A cinnamon roll topped with vanilla glaze and a signature pastry star.Salted Caramel Pecan Pie Roll: A pastry swirled with salted caramel, vanilla, and toasted Southern pecans.<\/p>\n

Beyond the cafe operation, they have expanded into a lifestyle brand, selling merchandise in the culinary, design, and entertainment spaces; there’s also a cookbook, Maman: The Cookbook, All Day Recipes to Warm Your Heart.<\/p>\n

They’re also known for brand collaborations such as the Martha Stewart pastries<\/a> created together by Stewart’s test kitchen and Maman co-founder Elisa Marshall.<\/p>\n

Seasonal, limited-edition Martha Stewart menu items for fall include a Caramel Cheesecake Sugar Bun filled with cream cheese mousseline and salted caramel; an Apple Cider Donut Cake made with apple cider and fall spices; and an Oatmeal Raisin Sandwich Cookie with cream cheese frosting; a Chicken Salad Club with spiced cranberry chutney; and a Creamy Tomato Soup & Three-Cheese Grilled Cheese sandwich. <\/p>\n

Known for its French provincial-inspired interiors, Maman’s cafes feature vintage furnishings, wood accents, and the brand’s signature blue toile details. These furnishings have made Maman a favorite for bridal showers, luncheons, and celebrations.<\/p>\n

The Southlake opening follows another high-profile debut of a new upscale restaurant: Hudson House<\/a>, which officially opened Monday, September 14 at 1131 E. Southlake Blvd., in the former RA Sushi space next to Gloria\u2019s.<\/p>\n
