Crema's Take
“Maprang brings Southeast Asian bakery traditions to Union Square with stunning custom cakes and creative desserts like pandan coconut cake and foi thong that feel both familiar and special. The bright, cozy space is perfect for lingering over a carefully made latte or grabbing a quick pastry, and the staff's warmth matches the genuine care they put into every order—whether you're celebrating with a pig-themed cake or discovering your new favorite Asian-inspired treat.”

Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
