Must Visit When In NYC – Just walk down Bleecker and you'll know when you are close to the Magnolia Bakery when you see the line literally down the block at any given hour of the day. The cupcakes are phenomenal but the item to really get is the banana pudding. And after sampling one of the bakery's deliciously rich cakes, you'll never eat a store boughten cake ever again.
Sweet – agnolia, while not usually credited with kicking off the cupcake craze, does seem to elicit a certain reverence from patrons. The problem is, as the popularity has grown, the crowds have too, so the cheerful place once conducive to spontaneous visits now requires some forethought and planning to avoid lines around the block. No wonder the staff is often harried and cranky, with people pouring relentlessly into such a tiny space. On nice Saturday afternoons, visitors often wait 25 minutes or more just to get in. Still... read more
mine is better – Their cupcakes were great, but my icebox cake is much better, which people who are die hard fans of magnolia's have told me. :)
Beats Billy's ANYDAY! – I LOVE LOVE LOVE Magnolia. Magnolia's red velvet cake, wonderfully fresh cupcakes, and icebox pies are so rich and fresh. My mouth is watering at my desk just thinking about it. Their freshly baked goods beat any other local knock-off bakery's items.
Terrible service - OTHER AMAZING BAKERIES IN NYC! – There are so many choices in New York City. For this very reason, it is not only wrong, it's amazing to me when I run across such pompous, unacceptable service. The cupcakes are tasty but if you really need a cupcake, go to Billy's in Chelsea or for that matter, try the bakery section of Whole Foods...it's actually not too shabby! Service with a smile coupled with an absolutely perfect product can also be found at Balthazar's in Soho, Le Pain de Quotidien, Sullivan Bakery a... read more
Service with a Sneer – If I wanted Indy rock record store snobbery, I'd go to Williamsburg, or the CMJ festival. There's no irony here, boys -- I really *do* want a cupcake. Unfortunately, the service (if you can call a cramped self-serve free-for-all "service") and the "hipper than thou" staff (which acts as if there's something akin to a KitchenAid Mix Master attachment stuck up each of their arses) detract greatly from enjoying an otherwise tasty treat.
The Magnolia Bakery has the most Yummiest Cupcakes Ever. The icing is so buttery sweet and the cake moist and delicious, and they are pretty too. The pastel color on the cupcakes makes it feel like its Easter all year round. I have even purchased their cookbook and made the cupcakes myself and they taste exactly like the ones made at the bakery, which proves that they are not trying to be stingy with the recipe. I have heard their banana pudding is outrageously delicious, but I have not had a chance to sample it myself. If y... read more
Magnolia Bakery – This place is WONDERFUL when it's not so busy that there is a 20 minute line down the corner. If you see a line, the experience will be more stressful than it's worth. If you happen to catch it when no one else is there, sit down at the table, get a tea and try the coconut cake. Then it will be a very nice moment in time.
NOT WORTH IT GO SOMEWHERE ELSE – the place is as big is my bathroom, with people waiting around the corner to get picked on by the staff...one girl called a customer's son "weird" because he didn't really like sweets...that's so wrong. and the famous cupcakes? the cake was dry and tasteless and the icing was basically colored sugar. and the large hot chocolate was the size of my thumb and had no chocolate in it! were the post teenage trying-to-be-bad kids too hung over to remember that? in conclusion, save yourself the time,... read more
