Yuck yuck yuck! – This is a very cute place in a very cute area. It was great to go here for the "scene" - so many people lining up for cupcakes at 10pm. I had been looking forward to them for so long as I heard this place was great. How misinformed I was! The cupcakes were revolting. I can eat sugarly, junk food with the best of them but this place was disgusting. The icing was too sugary and the cupcakes was dry and tasteless. I just had a bit or two and then three them out. Go if you want to check out what all the fuss is... read more

Very Disapointed – I heard so much about this little bakery and I saw the lines outside waiting to go in, boy were we disappointed. We only had the cupcakes. The icing was good, but the cake, dry and tasteless!!! Not worth the trip.

Best Cupcakes, but ... – I've been coming to Magnolia since it opened. The cupcakes and cakes are wonderful [and MUCH better than Billy's further uptown] but do be aware that there can be incredibly long lines, rude service, unbelievably cramped space and 'self serve' cupcakes means that everybody's touching them. Over the years I've seen some questionable things happen behind the counter with the ever changing lineup, but when the chocolate cake is on, IT'S ON, LOL ;). !!!

the worst cupcakes ever – I thought that they must have been selling the most wonderful cupcakes due to the long lines. I was excited when i passed and saw just a small line. They were so dry that even the excessive amount of frosting that was on them couldn't help the flavor. I guess the frosting was there only to camouflage the fact that there was barely any cupcake at all. It basically tasted like chocolate cornbread, and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. You could spend those ten minutes,which you would have been wast... read more

Worth the Wait! – I finally went here after years of hearing how wonderful it was. It is! Fabulously delicious cupcakes! You have to stand outside and wait for a few minutes due to the cramped quarters inside, but I expected that to happen and the staff does things in a very orderly fashion. It's become a bit of a tourist trap which is a little annoying, but definitly the best cupcakes I've had so far!

Best damn cupcakes in the city – I can't go to the village witout bringing home a box of cupcakes for my family. But you have to eat them right away while they're warm!

The pigeons didn't even want the crumbs – The best cupcakes in New York?!? Being a displaced southerner, I was looking forward to a little taste of home in the city. All that hope disappeared once I took that first bite of cupcake. Buttercream frosting? The icing on my cupcake didn't have a single drop of butter in it! Or butter flavored Crisco! This frosting was just lard, sugar and food coloring. Obviously, someone does not understand the difference between whipped frosting and buttercream! Maybe it is time to take a cooki... read more

Cupcake Rules – Beware -- you're limited to one dozen. Stopped into Magnolia to pick up 18 cupcakes for a birthday party, but alas, 12 is all I could order. So, I didn't.

Delicious – I visited Magnolia's to pick up a small cupcake for my birthday, as a mini-treat to myself. (It probably had over 590,382 calories, but it was worth it, regardless if I have to spend tomorrow at the gym burning it off!) Positives: The cupcake was great. It was freshly baked & sweet, one of the best cupcakes I have ever had!! Negatives: I understand this shop is a 'landmark' type of spot, but jeez, they need to renovate or reorganize the area to better accomodate its customers. When I arrived, the store was litera... read more
