Ok, THIS is the place to go for quality bakeries and coffee. Had pandan cake, opera cake, decaf latte with oatmilk. So glad I visited this cafe during my Boston trip, although it’s much closer to Cambridge. Would recommend! 👍

I don't usually review, but I've had such good experiences here. Despite the fact that I'm usually rushing in about ten minutes before closing, the staff is always so kind and helpful every time. I've liked pretty much everything I've tried here, but the Thai Tea Latte and Choco-Oreo Balls tend to be my go-to (with things like the Banoffee Cake or the Strawberry Shortcake when I'm feeling fancy). I routinely get to my 7:00 pm events an hour early because if I'm going to Union Square, I want to make it to Maprang before they close at 6:00 pm. A true neighborhood gem!

The place looks delicious and enticing but it’s a shame as they don’t respond to queries on their website, which I made to order a cake for a birthday.

Thai ice tea cake is to die for.

So I go here for their coffee, which is delicious, there cakes and pastries are unreal as well.
Last week I ordered a cake for a bday party. When we picked it up, it was huge and looked amazing. When I served it to everyone, they were amazed how good it was and all wanted to know where we got it.

This place is worth a try if you haven’t yet.

I'm a multiple-time-a-week regular, and I've never not been greeted with a warm smile, a happy good morning, and amazing, delicious, unbelievable quality drinks and baked confections.
I'll be a lifelong fan.

Cute little bakery with some seating. Love their coconut pandan cake- it’s so light and refreshing with just the right amount of sweetness. Everything tastes delicious and highly recommend this to anyone visiting or local. The founders story is so sweet and you can see their old textbooks holding up some baked goods.

Food was very good. We had the almond croissant and the mango sticky rice. Both were delicious. Walked 2 miles to get here and walked 2 miles back. Was worth it.

Bakery with not too sweet offerings which is perfect. Love the black sesame croissant with a strong drip coffee. Service is friendly and efficient.

Maprang is a small cafe and bakery serving up multiple Asian pastries, drinks, and desserts in a small area. The atmosphere is very bright and its nice to browse around in.

The staff were friendly, we got our pastries and drinks in under 5 minutes, and we were able to go in and out quite quickly.

We got a thai tea cake, biscoff cake, and a mango matcha. The Mango matcha was a bit light on the matcha flavor, and very sweet, a bit too sweet for our liking. The Thai Tea cake wasn't as good either, though it did have a good thai tea flavor. In contrast, the Biscoff Cake was very good, not too sweet and paired well together with the biscoff added on top.
