    Dozen cupcakes
    Sajeeb A.

    Adorable store with beautiful displays of all their products. We walked in at opening time and they were ready to go. We ordered a dozen cupcakes including Lemon lush, star berry crunch, cookies and cream, strawberry champagne, triple chocolate, peanut butter. Each cupcake is delicious in its own way. Also purchased a body lotion scented as lemon lush, and a lip balm. A must visit for anyone going through Lancaster county.

    So cute!! They always have fun new flavors to try! Be sure to try the Christmas flavors! I always end up buying multiple and having one before I head out!

    VEGAN Triple chocolate cupcake. Excellent. If you're a chocoholic like me, this is a good one to order.

    VEGAN REVIEW - YUM! they had 3 different types of vegan cupcakes for sale today at lunch. This is my first time here, so I don't know if they always have 3 types to offer. I'll be back. Very clean restaurant, and friendly staff. I'd just eaten lunch at a nearby restaurant, and came here for dessert. The room temperature in here is perfect. The restaurant I just ate at was too hot. Next time, I'll skip lunch, and just have dessert. Life is too short. Eat dessert first.

    Great little cupcake shop. Awesome cupcakes, and you can make them into shakes or put ice cream in between your cupcake. Awesome friendly staff.

    It's good...not great...but worth every calorie and bite. The service was okay, could've been better. The ambiance was nice, small place. And very few seats. Clean.

    Great service but the actual cupcakes are nothing spectacular. They're really sweet and outside of the "fancy" frosting, are your regular run of the mill cupcakes. Perhaps the milkshakes/Cupquakes are better but I can't imagine something even sweeter than just the cupcake itself. Also looking at about $40 for a dozen cupcakes.

    Adorable and efficient packaging!

    I could not resist stopping in when I walked by! The decor inside was so cute. They had so many delicious flavors it was hard to choose just one! I had the strawberry crunch bar and was not disappointed with my choice. It was soft and full of strawberry flavor without being too sweet. Definitely would recommend a stop by and treat yourself to a few!

    Yes, yes, yes, yes! This place was so much fun with a great variety of different cupcakes to choose from. My friends and I found a seat and was able to eat and share different delicious bites. They do not have a lot of seating so if you find a table, you're lucky. But if you get it to go, the cupcakes are still worth it.

    Vegan cupcakes: Santa's Milk and Cookies, Strawberry Champagne, Cookies and Cream and Peanut Butter and Fudge.

    My wife and I were walking the streets of Lancaster when we passed Lancaster Cupcake. It was cold so she suggested we stop in so she could warm up while grabbing a cupcake. Begrudgingly I did. I mean what's a vegan to do in a shop like this? Apparently, eat. Lancaster Cupcake had four items on the menu that were both vegan and gluten free. When I say four items, I'm not talking about typical plain Jane flavors like vanilla or chocolate. I'm talking flavors like Cookies and Cream, Santa's Milk and Cookies, Strawberry Champagne and Peanut Butter and Fudge. As I was trying to decide on one, the Store Manager informed us that we could get one, four, six or a dozen cupcakes. We selected the half dozen option and purchased one of each vegan flavor. My wife grabbed two regular cupcakes, which the manager packed separately so there was no confusion. She even placed a fun little vegan sticker on the vegan cupcake container. These cupcakes were moist and creamy. They had great flavor and consistency the whole way through. They held up nicely to being frozen. The cupcakes were not cheap, but the price was comparable to other vegan baked goods I've purchased in other cities. Overall, I didn't walk into Lancaster Cupcake expecting to be wowed but that is exactly what happened.

    OH my goodness! You have to! Do it! Get some! I was introduced to these cupcakes from a birthday party back in September 2022. They now became on my radar from that party. Fast forward to November 2022. We were in Pennsylvania visiting family and decided on a quick trip to Lancaster for the day. We conveniently parked across the street from Lancaster Cupcakes in the parking garage. Customer service was on point! They were so nice and out so much effort into everything the my did from making coffee to packing up our cupcakes. They also allowed us to house our cupcakes in their store while we shopped around. That was extremely nice of them to do that! Look up pics are extremely delicious. They are moist and have the perfect amount of icing for my liking. I highly recommend hitting them up.

The line can get long but it moves quicky. They offer a pretty basic menu of food options and standard coffee shop offerings. I picked up a bag of their keystone blend. It was fantastic. The bag didn't really open well. But I ended up just putting it into a plastic baggie. I did love that they offered me a free drip coffee with the purchase of the coffee beans. The bags are pricey at $20 a bag. But it truly is a good brew.

I recently decided to turn in my CDL and head back into the office, which allows me more time to get my workouts in and perfect my look. Normally, when I pick up something new, I do a lot of research; I dive all in. I'm glad I "dived into" coffee. When you're a truck driver, you usually hit truck stops where the coffee isn't great. However, being diverse and cultured, I started trying coffee in Latin communities. I noticed they used special machines, which sparked my interest. I eventually started visiting specialty coffee shops. Most of the places I get food from don't open until 10:00 AM, but coffee shops are open much earlier. That's how I found Passenger Coffee here in Lancaster. I knew it was going to be a great spot the moment I walked in; it was clean, inviting, and smelled amazing. A friendly employee greeted me with a smile, and their pastry display looked great. I told her I was new to coffee--only about two months in--but that I was enjoying trying different kinds. I explained how I normally take my coffee and mentioned that the last time I had one, it had foam on top. She gave me a small coffee to try, as well as one with foam (a latte or cappuccino). I think that's all I want to drink from now on! I used to make fun of people who said, "Don't talk to me until I've had my first cup," but now I finally understand why. I highly recommend this place for the excellent customer service and the cleanliness of the location. The pricing is affordable, too. I hope my review helps!

My standard order is an iced latte with cherry syrup (although a latte with the peanut butter syrup is also delicious). I've tried cherry lattes elsewhere, but Mean Cups is the best.

The service is quick (and not at all mean!). There's plenty of parking in the lot in front of the store. I do wish they had more food options, but there's not much aside from a small selection of baked goods. Luckily, there are plenty of other options in the same line of shops where you can grab some food to have with your coffee.

It was only 7:32 AM when I pulled the door, only to find out, of course, it was closed. So, I did a quick Google search and did my research--as most people do not--and found out that there was another bagel spot right around the corner that also sold breakfast and coffee. Just like a New Yorker, I didn't drive my car; instead, I decided to take a walk to the other bagel spot. Well, I must say, I am not impressed. However, the score for this place is a 3.7 out of 5, only because it's a nice location, the employees have smiley faces, and the place is very clean!
