Magnolia Bakery - Upper West Side

Very Honest Reviews★★★★

Famous for their Banana Pudding! I’ve always loved their banana pudding. Came to this location to grab their standard pudding and also the pistachio banana pudding, which was a great change in taste and texture. Tried their mini cupcakes, which were decent. Did not have a good experience with the lady at the banana pudding bar, as she was a bit rude. Otherwise, no issues. A bit of a line, but expected. Price is a little bit high but reasonable for the brand.

Everything is pre-made. Yet you spend 20minutes on a line. Employees ask what you want just not to get it. There's 10 people onsite Yet a 20min wait for pre made dessert . Banana pudding is decent but here ( overwhipped with barely any cookies), cakes are dry. Go to a different location. There is better on other avenues. Had this been my first experience with the company , I wouldn't return. *BP was 3/4 overwhipped pudding. Complete waste of money. Threw the rest out **

Magnolia Bakery is amazing, but I have to say: everyone talks about the cupcakes, and they are great, but do not sleep on the banana pudding. It is insanely good. It is so good that I have made a special trip there right before a flight and flown across the country with it just so my dad could try it. It is truly next level. We always buy the largest size to bring home, and it never lasts long. I do not know what they put in it, but it is absolutely delicious: creamy, comforting, and completely addictive. I have tried other things here, and they have all been good, but the banana pudding is t

Great to have this UWS location with a nice banana pudding bar. My vanilla sliced cake was extremely dry, which ended up getting refunded -- but it was disappointing that this product was even sold in this state. Other than that, typical Magnolia eith great presentation. A few tables available inside. Be prepared for tourist crowds on the weekend!
