Editorial Review for Cupcake – by Donna Tabbert Long

In Short
Yes, cupcakes are the obvious confections of choice at this hip café/bakery, adorned with a huge, blue tea cup on the outside corner wall. Inside, an open kitchen encourages diners to sip their lattes while watching bakers lavish frosting on the signature sweets. Creative cupcakes (counter service only) to choose from include more than 30 variations like "banana pudding," "s'more," "chai tea" and "red velvet." Pizzas, soups, cookies, sandwiches and healthy salads are available for lunch and early dinner.

User Reviews for Cupcake

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Parking is a nightmare at this establishment, but the cupcakes are worth it. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I purchased a iced mocha and a bakers choice dozen of cupcakes. They picked a great selection of their cupcakes, ranging from plain vanilla to chocolate cream pie. The only drawback was my order came to almost thirty dollars. The cupcakes are worth it for a special occasion, but I would probably buy individual cakes instead next time I have a craving for sweets. I was excited to find that they have lunch, dinner, and breakfast selections as well. I will absolutely return to try their fresh made soups and bread!

Pros: Amazingly innovative cupcakes

Cons: PARKING!

Best freaking cupcakes ever! Think rich colorful frosting and coconut. They look like something you would find in a Dr.Seuss book and taste like a chunk of heaven. The coffee is not that great, tastes burnt.
