A French café and bakery for Shadowood Square

Clint Moore lane closures, a free pool movie and drop-in crafts at Gumbo Limbo

Maman's Boca debut brings its neighboring children's clothing and jewelry shops into the opening celebration at Shadowood Square. They will host pop-ups around the Oct. 6 grand opening, while city events offer a pool movie and coastal crafts this weekend.

The big story

At the opening, the first 100 Maman guests get a complimentary chocolate chip cookie and Maman tote bag, and the first 50 guests who make a Maman purchase of $15 or more get a croissant charm. Children's clothing store Tecomoabesos will sell toys and clothes at a pop-up from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., and jewelry store Hustle + Heart will sell its charms from 1 to 3 p.m. The grand opening ceremony is Tuesday, Oct. 6, marking Maman's Boca Raton debut at 9959 Glades Road.
