The cupcakes are reliably good, but the cakes, while they look nice, are hit and miss. more on CitySearch

It was such a wonderful experience and you can't go just once! more on Yahoo! Travel

I would recommend it, though, and say that it would be worth going to for the experience. more on Restaurantica

We went back again on our last day and took a couple of cupcakes to Central Park-the perfect end to a prefect break in a fab city. more on TripAdvisor

My favorite cupcakes are the Red Velvet ones with buttercream icing. more on igougo

My friend and I went to NYC a few days ago. This was on our "to do, to try" list. I love sweets, chocolate of any kind. We went to the Bleecker St. one since we were in that neighborhood and I saw it ... more on TripAdvisor

The other cupcakes may be a little too sweet but the red velvet cupcake does live up to the hype. I'm not a pudding person, but there are a lot of people inside the ... more on TripAdvisor

I've had better but Magnolia Bakery was good. The chocolate chip cookies were good as was the lemon bar. I didn't try their cupcakes which is what everyone said they ... more on TripAdvisor

Magnolia's is a cute little bakery in a cute little NY neighborhood. The cupcakes are pretty, and the line snaking around the block would certainly seem to attest to quality. Sadly, that's not the case. The cupcakes were dry and crumbly, ... more on Yahoo! Travel

We liked the ones with the chocolate buttercream icing best. The vanilla icing was so sweet it almost made our teeth hurt! But they are delicious. For $2.00 a cupcake, they better be. Cute little shop in a great little neighborhood. ... more on Yahoo! Travel

Magnolia is NYC ! This fabulous bakery is one I will never forget. Each time we travel to NYC , Magnolia is first on our list of stops. The bakery is small but that does not take away from the big sweets they have to offer. The cupcakes ... more on Yahoo! Travel

The cupcakes are far too rich and buttery. But the banana cream pudding is to die for. more on Yahoo! Travel

This trendy cupcake store (sounds oxymoronic...) always has a line out the door. My advice: skip the cupcakes and move on to ... more on Yahoo! Travel

After dying to try magnolia bakery's famous cupcakes, I finally went to the shop today, only to be greatly disappointed. I purchased 8 cupcakes, ($18) total, 3 chocolate, 1 vanilla, 2 red velvet and 2 pumpkin. The chocolate cupcakes ... more on CitySearch

I don't see the big deal with this bakery. It's crowded and they have overrated cupcakes that they charge too much for. ... more on CitySearch

I've heard so much about the magnolia bakery from friends and from watching sex and the city that I made a special trip the first moment I arrived in the city... I love the vanilla cupcakes the best... The frosting was so plentiful ... more on CitySearch

The cupcakes, of course! Banana pudding is great too... but don't expect service with a smile. The crowds are fun too. more on CitySearch

The best cupcakes in the worls! Please, who are they kidding. Maybe once upon a time. I was in there once before because I had heard that they serve sweets from old fashioned southern Recipes. May I tell you that coming from a South ... more on CitySearch
