Review Macaron Cafe - New York City

Ling Shi

I came here because I won a giveaway from Macaron Cafe for Valentine’s Day! The staffs were very nice and got there manager right away. The manager was also very nice to handed my gift too. Anyway, this was my second time trying a whole box of macarons from this place and I loved it! My favorite is always the classic, Birthday Cake, Matcha, RV and White Chocolate. YUMMY! I loved that the macaron texture from this place because it had a chewy and light crispy shell.

I lived the atmosphere. Very nice design. Quiet nice place with very friendly staff and delicious Macarons biscuits . Tasty coffee too. Small fact about Macarons: A macaroon is a small biscuit/cookie, typically made from ground almonds (the original main ingredient), coconut, and/or other nuts or even potato, with sugar and sometimes flavorings (e.g. honey, vanilla, spices), food coloring, glace cherries, jam, and/or a chocolate coating. Culinary historians write that macaroons can be traced to an Italian monastery of the 8th or 9th century. The monks came to France in 1533, joined by the pastry chefs of Catherine de Medici. Recipes for macaroons (also spelled "mackaroon", "maccaroon" and "mackaroom") appear in recipe books at least as early as 1725

Not the freshest macaron’s i’ve had, but they tasted really good, and they have a great selection of different flavors, great service

Great location, great service. Macaroons were too chewy, the cookie didn’t gently crack as I would have liked. Maybe they were stored too cold? I don’t know. Good flavor, though. Also had the Chicken sandwich (delicious) and the Norwegian sandwich (nothing special). Prices are what to be expected of the location.

The selection of Macarons are fantastic, and the quality is top notch, same for service. They also do a very good coffee, whether it be a straight roast of your choice, or a latte. Worth your time to find the shop and take a break in your hectic day.

Love the Macaron Cafe Bake Shop! You can really taste the superior ingredients. I enjoy the macarons here far more than Magnolia Bakery or Buttercup. The cake is never dry and the icing is just right. Plus, there are so many wonderful flavors. A+++!!!!

I can't eat the macarons (dairy allergy) but the green tea with rose and lavender was amazing. Ample seating in the evening. Better than their previous location a block away. Will come back for the tea! Great service too.

The macarons were so yummy, we actually returned a few times during our NYC trip to get more. The americanos at the cafe were second to none in the city; they were flavorful and didn't have the bitter taste of a typical americano. The cafe was simply decorated and had touches of France throughout, creating a cozy environment. My one complaint is the staff seemed slightly uninterested in the customers and didn't fully answer questions about the menu. Regardless, the food and espresso were good enough to overlook that aspect.

I love this place, but the tables are too close to each other and the length of the table between you and your guests are too long. Besides my table design critique I think the place has the best atmosphere in New York . It has an intimate bar, and a few areas to eat. Each area has a totally different feel.

I love macaron and this place is cute with delicious food /coffee 👍 they have place to sit and chat with a good coffee and macaron.

I swear, Macaroons are the new cupcakes and this place takes the cake, literally :) These sugar sweet confections are delicate and lovingly made with flavors changing daily. Macaroon Cafe offers a wide variety of interesting flavor combinations like vanilla pomegranate, mango, champagne, and many more. These desserts are small but certainly pack a punch, try to eat just one. The only downfall is that at $4 a macaroon you are basically paying a $2 a bite so eat slowly and savor them. Macaroon cafe has a decent seating area which they try to keep on the quiet side so as not to disturb clients. They also offer fabulous coffee drinks and other french treats like croissants, madelines, and meringues.

We recently had these delectable cookies at a company party and they were definitely a hit! Not only are these macaroons moist, delicious and come in a variety of exotic flavors ( helloooo, honey lavender and passion fruit!), they make great gifts for that special dessert lover in all of us. Only recently did I try macaroons and I must say, out of the few experiences I've had, Macaron Cafe definitely hits the mark on what a macaroon should look and taste!:)

Absolutely one of my favorite lunch spots. Try the French Caesar salad which is phenomenal, one of my favorite salads in the city. Monday is quiche daily special and it's massive and delicious. The sandwiches are great as are the soups. And of course they make great coffee and have excellent Macarons. They recently got their wine license too.

Their Macaroon is so tasty. Great selection of salads and the Paris Sandwich - my fav!! I liked the small cafe across the street more though. The new cafe does not have the warm feel as the tiny little cafe across the street.
