The best macaroons I've ever eaten. Its common for places to sell pre-refrigerated macaroons that are not fresh and soft. This is definitely not the case here. I first ordered during the pandemic to share and fell in love then. You can tell they are crafted with care. I also like the multitude of designs they have seasonally. These would make a great gift to a teacher, friend or boss. The bakery itself is small but cozy. They offer a variety of cafe style drinks and have really nice decor. Overall I'm proud to be repeat customer of Mac Lab and highly recommend their desserts. read more

I'd give the ambience and drinks a 5/5 but the macaroons were slacking (3/5). The place is very aesthetic with lots of open light from the windows and about 6 tables and a little couch area. I love how there are paintings/chemical formulas with flowers on the tables as their decor. Their drinks are very affordable and reasonable. I got the lavender latte which was around $5 and an Americano for about $3. The lavender latte had a good syrup taste, but not the best lavender latte I had. It was good though (4/5!) Some of the macaroon flavors were lacking :( -earl grey: I had high hopes because I love a good earl grey drink and pastry. But I didn't taste any of the earl gray flavor -lavender honey: I love flower flavors. I got their lavender latte granted. I think only the aftertaste has a sliver of lavender to it. It didn't give me that warm feeling like a spring menu would. -pistachio: only the aftertaste had a slight nutty flavor, pretty disappointed with how it came out -rose lychee: The crème had a slight lychee flavor like kind of fruity. It was a miss for me -salted caramel: This one had an obvious flavor -matcha: crazy enough, this one was the best Overall, I wasn't a crazy fan of their macaroons. We got 6 macarons for about $18, which came in a cute little box. It's a small cafe, but I came in the afternoon where there was only one or two other pairs of people here at the tables. Bathroom required a code. Free parking in the plaza! read more

I've been meaning to try Mac Lab for awhile and today was finally the day! When you walk in, the interior is so cute, clean and inviting! I was greeted and helped right away! They had a lot of flavors to choose from and even had some cute character macarons that I sadly did not get. I ordered a 3 pack to try and they were absolutely delicious. The flavors I ordered were rose lychee, passion fruit, and lavender honey. The flavors were not too sweet and the consistency was perfect. They were also packaged so nicely to go. I was too full to try a drink, but would like to another time. I will definitely be back! read more

I adore the chic and cheerful atmosphere, here, with the soft color palate seen throughout the shop. Things you should know: I. LOCATION Within the Mall Corners Shopping Center. There's convenient private parking out front of the plaza. And it's free ~ can't get easier than that. II. SERVICE No complaints. Everyone was friendly. III. QUALITY The macarons are fresh and buttery. They're not flakey, not frozen, and not crunchy/dry. Usually, I lean towards baked flavors like Chocolate, Salted Caramel, etc. but I genuinely enjoyed the fruity options at Mac Lab more. Rose & Lychee and Guava were my favorites; I highly recommend them. IV. CAPACITY Plenty of available seating for a Thursday mid-afternoon read more

GO NOW! This place has the most amazing macaroons! They are so fresh, full of flavor, and beautiful to look at. The filling was creamy compared to others where the filling is barely noticeable. The Mac Lab macaroons will want you going back to try ALL the flavors from the menu. Packaging is to die for as well, and they make a beautiful gift for teachers and birthday. They even have hand painted macaroons for very, very special occasions. The unicorn is adorable! read more

I was looking for a coffee place after having lunch at a nearby restaurant and found this. 5 stars for an overall experience in this area. Interior- very clean and elegant! Bright and calm. The bathroom was super clean, which is always a bonus! Service - very friendly and nice people Coffee and macarons - I got an espresso macchiato and 2 macarons - mango and rose lychee. I have had really great macarons from Paris, Seoul, NYC and other places in the states..so theirs don't stick out as the best, but they were very tasty. The rose lychee was better with more distinctive flavor. Mango was a bit on the subtle side. Crisp outside and right amount of chew. I would have like a bit more flavor in the mango, and a little smoother surface/ a bit more filling. Macchiato was good, too. Slightly acidic, almost standard hip coffee house flavor..:) I personally like it a little more mellower and sweeter, but it was good. All three items together were around $9 with tax, which is pretty good considering the price of everything these days. I'd definitely visit again if I'm in the area. It feels like a hidden gem in the area! read more

Currently, you can order online & have your macarons delivered or by pick up. You can only see pics before ordering if you do your takeout in person. You can't go in the store. They have a table with the menu printed & you pick your cookies that way. They also post specials on their instagram so follow them if you're interested! That's how I found out about Aang and Appa macarons as they're not on the menu. They're Soo good though! Their menu has maybe a dozen macaron types on it & not sure that they're selling anything else. Online had a few extra options for customizations or some of the off menu macarons. I ordered 12 cookies & they gave me 8 of them so I had to go back to the store to ask for the rest. That was a bit disappointing and really only lucky that I noticed so many were missing while I was taking a pic in my car. The macarons are very flavorful. The geode ones are $4/each and vanilla flavored. Aang was banana foster & appa was apple pie I think. Both $3.75/each. I also got 2 cotton candy for $5 total. Plenty of parking in the shopping center lot. read more

After months of thinking about how much I wanted macarons, I set out on a search for a place that would deliver to my good ol' home anddddd after a quick Google search...I found Mac Lab. I've had macarons from here before and figured I get a few. Well. I'm here to say that after placing two different orders a week apart, I'm glad I found them. There website is pretty up to date and let's you know which flavors are out of stock and there are plenty of flavors to choose from and you can create your own box while some flavors come two to a pack or you can purchase individually. So far I've had Oreo, mango, raspberry, strawberry, cotton candy, lavender (there's cute food speckles on this one), this cute little unicorn one that's fruity pebbles (I think), vanilla, and matcha. Okay. I've pretty much tried most of the flavors but they are soooo good. They're so light and I just feel so fancy whenever I eat them. I've received the order about two days after placing it and while I was little weary about how they would arrive, I was happy that when I opened the box they were bubble wrapped and alllll have arrived intact. I also like that the store sends you updates on when your order is shipped and you're able to track your package. It's good to know that if I'm in the mood for some good macarons, they're just a one click away! read more

They were 18.13 for all 6. read more

Honestly Mac Lab makes the best macaroons. They are the only place that I have been to that specializes in macaroons. Love their social media feed (Instagram) and how they use this tool frequently to promote limited time/edition flavors and creations to choose from. They have valentines week specials, Christmas designs during the holidays and I remember they had a Pokémon Eevee design. Very cute and creative. This place is very bright and beautiful as a place to study and look out towards the open space/ natural light. Love the place as it is. The price is expensive for sure but there is a valid reason for this since they perfect the craft of making one. Also I heard that they are really hard to make and maintain. I believe that I tried/ had a bite of each and everyone of the signature flavors. Love them all but I particularly love the rose and lychee one, and any of them that is a berry flavor: blueberry, raspberry, strawberry, and etc. Looking forward to coming back in the near future. Great staff, beautiful interior, positive vibes arounds. read more

Mac Lab - Nutella and the Valentines Special (Vanilla) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

If you like macaroons, I'll assume you'll like this place too. Design wise the Mac Lab does look sort of like a lab. Mostly white in color, but it's still gives you that homely cottage vibe with it's wood trims and panel like something you would see in Home & Garden or HGTV. Definitely well thought of when it comes to interior design. The macaroons come in a variety of flavors and you get them individually or mix it up in a box of sorts. Prices will vary and most of them are around $2 or so. They recently introduced a ice cream option, that is only served Fri-Sun 3-9PM. Worth getting just because it's not your ordinary ice cream, feels a bit more on pasty/gourmet style and it also come with a macaroon attached. Overall, Mac Lab, which has been open for a few years now continues to do well and remain popular in the area. There are not many places that specialize in macaroons in the area. They have the best selection in my opinion. Worth stopping by for sure to give it a shot if you're in the area. read more

So I was headed to my usual place to work (you know who you are) and was driving past this spot. I have heard about it but didn't know it was so close to where I lived nor did I know they had coffee. Because of the name I just figured it was a Macaroon bakery with not many else options. That may still be the case but the other option here is coffees and teas and a lot of them! Just on the latte menu, you have anything from vanilla to an orange coconut latte ( I was not brave enough to try this). THE LATTE TEST I asked for something pretty specified that I could judge better since I get this type of coffee when I am out and about. (a light caramel latte - very low sugar - with oat milk and cinnamon). Without, batting an eye, she agreed and knocked it out of the park! I loved the latte art she pulled off (see pictures) and the flavor was pretty smooth and not too strong. I see that they hare getting their coffee locally and it's being roasted at a city level because it is not french or dark roasted in flavor at least. GOTTA TRY A MACAROON...OR 2...MAYBE 3? No, I'm joking, being sugar sensitive the coffee was already making me nervous because many people hear "low sugar" and bring the drink to the bring of diabetes in a cup (they didn't do this) so I asked which macaroon was the most popular which was the oreo. I got this one and tried it out and couldn't taste much Oreo but it still had a great taste. Being a macaroon, you cant get away from it being completely coated in sugar - like literally. Because of this, you need to typically have a strong flavor that can cut through the sugar and make a lasting impact on the overall take. That said, I am wanting to try a few others in the figure to see how this is done. Why only macaroons? I suppose it because they are good at what they do. Since I have not eaten yet I don't want to try too many and hurt myself but ill be back for sure. ATMOSPHERE Of all the cafes in the Duluth area, this is one of the brightest I have ever been in. It seems very welcoming and has a strong white color presence (white tables, white walls, white ceiling, white counter, etc etc). I like the hint of teals, greys and beige colors. It was an atmosphere I quickly felt comfortable in and the staff were very welcoming. It's also pretty cool that the tables are expandable although there are only about 6 tables they open up to easily seat 6 people in case you have a group stop by. Wifi is available and pretty fast so it's perfect for cafe nomads like myself. MY ONLY TAKEAWAY I love cafe's like this who specialize and perfect specific items. In this case, they are doing killer macaroons and great coffee. I just wish there was something else more food-wise that was offered here. Some type of snack food to expand the customer base and retention of people like me who need time to work on projects without having to leave and find something to munch on. Anyhow, thats my take. read more

Friendly service and nice interior but macarons were a bit too dried out/lacked flavor. Not sure if that's because of the time of a day I visited (around 4ish), but honestly the taste was disappointing. It's on a pricier side too. I've heard good things about this place so maybe I'll try it again earlier in the day :) Oh and their coffee is pretty decent too. read more

Mac Lab - 6 Piece Build-A-Box - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

You usually can't go wrong with macarons, I do always run into the problem of choosing less than 6. I always want all the flavors. Mac Lab is a really cute spot on Pleasant Hill and seemed pretty spacious and a nice place chat with friends or do a little work. Of those I tried (guava, passion fruit, green tea mach, nutella, elderflower, rose lychee, and vanilla), the guava, nutella, and vanilla were my favorite. Pricing ranged from $2.00 - $2.20 per macaron, which is pretty standard. They also have a variety to delicious looking teas and coffee drinks I'm anxious to try when I have time to sit and relax at Mac Lab. read more

I came here on a whim because it is close to a Japanese restaurant I adore (Haru Ichiban). This place is very charming. The decor and food is cute and photogenic. They had a wide variety of macarons in the whole spectrum of colors. They are moderately priced, depending on if you get a standard macaron or specialty macaron. They can range from $2 to $4. I really enjoyed my time here, and I will probably be back when I'm next in Duluth. read more

Mac Lab - My selection! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Mac Lab (9/10) is a small cozy cafe that sells an assortment of macarons and warm drinks. While the macarons are pricy at about $13 for 6 of them the quality and taste are great. Great for a date location or a casual meet up. AMBIANCE: (10/10) A cozy cafe with simple decorations. Seating can be limited if it's particular busy but overall great. CUSTOMER SERVICE: (8/10) Staff was friendly and helpful if choosing the flavors. FOOD: (9.5/10) I got a pack of six flavors: pistachio, Nutella, guava, passion fruit, and honey lavender. The pistachio and passion fruit were my personal favorites. All of the flavors were great, none were particularly overpowering or too sweet and the texture of the outer layer of the macaron was the right blend of chewy yet firm. read more

Our visit to the Mac Lab was quick. There was ample parking; however, the scent from the Chinese restaurant next door made me forget what I was there for! Going back to Mac Lab... we were promptly greeted by the young man at the counter who explained their prices and the selections. We picked, Guava, mango, Jasmine, rose petal, and I forgot the other flavor. I thought the Maca were a little on the small size but I would totally spend $17 on the tiny jewels. They were fresh, soft and crispy and I have never had such a delicious and perfect Mac. The flavors were exactly as described. We took the cookies to go, but there was a very clean sitting area with people enjoying their drinks and on their laptops. I wouldn't suggest it for a large group, but it looks like a neat place to hang out.! read more

Do you want to learn the difference between a macaron and a macaroon? Then Mac Lab is just the place for you! Their staff is exceptional in describing each flavor of the macaron that you'll want to order them all. I normally don't rate places a five star unless I'm blown away but Mac Lab deserves it. Each macaron is made with fresh ingredients and a whole lot of love. My favorite macaron is the vanilla. When you first take a bite you are met with a nice soft chew and then you get to the middle and there is the delicate filling. The vanilla filling tasted fresh unlike when you eat something with artificial vanilla. That shows how much they care about quality. The atmosphere is very relaxing with minimalistic decorating so you don't feel overwhelmed with the surrounding. Perfect for any occasion. read more

Mac Lab is a very clean and cute little macaron shop in Duluth. It's located in a really big strip mall/ plaza. There's plenty of parking.

The music wasn't overwhelming and I found myself singing along to a few songs. So many choices for macarons!! I decided on the lemon thyme and the lavender honey both were good and I described them as a dessert cup of tea. Also had the orange coconut latte, this was amazing!! I loved all the flavors incorporated into this drink and it wasn't overwhelming or too sweet. read more

I always miss out on the super cute character macarons and the ice cream macaron sandwich because they are only served on weekends. I live in NC, and when I make my Atlanta trips, I'm loathe to choose a weekend, because in my mind the traffic is tolerable Monday thru Thursday. Unless I'm way off. In the mean time, my daughter gets to enjoy the various flavors they offered. I chose the Oreo, vanilla, lemon raspberry and elderflower (because it was purple, my favorite color) ones for her to try. She hesitated when I told her what the purple color was, but after one bite she enjoyed it, and then the other 4 afterward. Hopefully I will get to snack on some of their specialty weekend offerings soon. read more

My favorite was passion fruit. I thought I'd like it but I ended up loving it! I was disappointed in the salted caramel and the lavender honey -- the flavors just were not distinct enough for me. I never would have guessed the salted caramel was that. I might have guessed lavender, but probably not. The coffee was ok. Lemon thyme was interesting. I sure wish I could have had a unicorn, but it's only available on the weekend (it's fruity pebbles flavor). Overall I think they were a bit overpriced. Hopefully you find a flavor you think is worth the high price tag. For me, that is passion fruit. read more

Mac Lab - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

I went in today for a cappuccino but ordered a latte. Please don't ask why, I don't even know. I don't like milk that much. Anyway there were a handful of people went I in, a little after they opened. Though I like macaroons I did not indulge in one and ordered a latte. My only gripe was that the latte was way too foamy, I think the barista was fairly new and normally I don't enjoy Batdorf & Bronson (the majority of their espresso is too dark for my taste) but it wasn't bad. My fault for not ordering a cappuccino, I thought they has a smaller size latte. The staff was very nice, greeting people as they entered the shop. My visit was for a drink, mission accomplished. read more

Macaron Labaratory aka Mac Lab is located to the right of Ming's BBQ in Gwinnett County/Duluth off Pleasanthill Road. For better stores to look out for, it's behind the Applebee's and Bruster's. Also in the same shopping plaza diagonally across from HHGREGG. DECOR: Modern interior and pristine feel. Furniture are cream and white. Writings on the table of organic structures and functional groups. Interesting. I forgot to ask what the meaning behind it was. Maybe ingredients for the macarons? lol The wall is an off baby pink. Very light. DESSERTS They serve plenty of desserts made from scratch such as scones, cookies, croissants, etc (~3). Yes, I asked the workers and it was confirmed. They specialize in macarons ($2 )though, hence the name Mac Lab aka Macaron Laboratory. COFFEE They serve coffee/espressos/lattes/etc and it's delicious. The brand used is Batdorf & Bronson Coffee. It's displayed on the shelves behind the counter. I ordered a cappuccino and had it in stores. It was made and poured in a nice coffee mug. Strong and bold coffee. mmmm. (~$3-4) Overall cool hip coffee/dessert joint. Friendly staff. read more

Dairy project collaborated with Mac Lab for the summer and more. This weekend (Sep 22-23) is the last before you are not able to get anymore. What attracted me was the 24k gold ice cream.

I just stopped over here today, this is a brand new European style Café that is next door Ming's BBQ, where they have hhgregg's. This place is beautiful, the entire décor within this café is white and they have these really cool tables with different chemistry formulas in the center of each table. They even have an electrical outlet behind every individual table that has its own USB port to plug in electrical devices that require a USB cord, so this place is perfect for anyone who wants to grab a bite to eat, have a latte, buy some deserts or order some bread togo while catching up on some school work. Macaron Laboratory (Mac Lab) is open on Mondays from 11 to 9, Tuesdays they are closed and on Wednesday's through Sunday they are also open from 11AM-9PM. While here, I noticed that the owners had on display their degree from CIA (The Culinary Institute of America in New York) anyone who knows culinary, knows this is the crème de la crème for culinary arts. I know this café will do extremely well, these people really know their baking and pastry, as well as coffee and the staff was extremely friendly. Everyone there had a smile on their face and their passion really showed. Usually when I am in Decatur, I will visit the Dancing Goats coffee bar, because it is owned by Batdorf & Bronson, who are very well known in the Atlanta market for their darn good blended coffees that they roast. The fantastic news is that Mac Lab bakery & café only uses Batdorf & Bronson coffee, so I am very happy, as now I do not have to drive far to get an excellent expresso or latte. While here today I had their hazelnut latte (café au lait) which was really good, the foam was velvety. If you love Macarons (french), or never had one before, I highly recommend the Green tea or Chocolate, they are extremely good. Take a 1/4 size bite and allow the macaron to sit on your tongue and move around on your palate, the exterior layer has a nice crisp shell and the center is nice and moist. After talking to the staff, they said they are made fresh every day, so come early, as they sell out quick. I have been to other places and they usually sit for days, so it is nice to be able to get freshly made Macarons. Keep in mind, it is strongly recommend that they are eaten at room temperature, they keep them cold here, so they recommend letting them sit for about 5 minutes before eating them. For those who are not familiar with Macarons, keep in mind they are sweet, considering that they are made up of 70% sugar. They are made from Almond Flour (I checked, this stuff is expensive), so they are gluten free, which is why Macarons are pricey. This is my new spot for coffee and pastries.

Finally got to check this place out. It's a very chic atmosphere. Clean. Stark white. Nice people who worked there. I came on a Thursday night and was glad to find many of the different macarons available. Naturally, I ordered one of each and we did a taste test. We were mindful to wait at least 10 minutes for the macarons to get to room temperature before trying them as suggested by one of the girls behind the counter. The flavors we tried. Priced at $2 per macaron: Raspberry Green tea Orange blossom Black sesame Chocolate Mango Rose lychee Passion fruit Pistachio Unfortunately, I didn't really enjoy any of the macarons. The most flavorful and distinct was the orange blossom and I'm not even a fan of orange-flavored items. You can tell the cookie part was one generic recipe and just dyed accordingly. The flavored creme was very subtle and it was hard to differentiate any of the flavors during our taste test. The worst was the pistachio which was actually HARD to bite into. And I found consistency to be an issue with the other flavors as well. Some were perfect and soft while others crumbled with a bite. Overall, I've had much better macarons at other places (my current favorite is at Alon's). I am intrigued by their expressos and lattes so will be returning to try those out when I am in the area. read more

I've been wanting to try Mac Lab, although since it's been open, I was unsure of what to expect. People have definitely been bringing down the hype because of the high standards and expectations. However, I was pleasantly surprised by my dinnertime tea time. I ordered a thick chai latte to go with my two macarons: earl grey and rose lychee. One of my friends ordered the black sesame and the green tea macarons, while another chose the green tea cheese cake. Everything we tried was amazing, flavor wise. My favorite flavor of the night was the green tea cheesecake. Smooth and creamy, slightly bitter from the green tea but sweet in all the right ways. The earl grey tea was subtle until you hit the center of the macaron, where it packs a black tea punch. The rose lychee was also subtle and slightly sweet, which I enjoyed. The green tea and black sesame were just those things - green tea and sesame. But good all the same. I enjoyed sipping on my rich (whole milk only) chai tea latte. It warmed my belly on this rainy day. It's a little pricey but mostly worth the cost. There's limited seating, so I suggest coming by on a slow time - during a meal time, near closing time, or a weekday during work hours. Definitely worth a try or two... Or three! read more

I live in California and wanted to send my sister, who lives in Georgia, a birthday treat. She loves macarons so I searched for a place that is near her and delivers. I was so happy to find the Mac Lab. Not only do they make delicious macarons, but there is free delivery for orders over $30. What a deal! I hate to pay shipping charges when it costs almost as much to ship as it does the cost of the item. I ordered her macarons on a Wednesday and they were delivered to her house the next day. She loved the gift and raved about how delicious the macarons taste. This is the second time I have used this business to send macarons to her and I will continue to order from the Mac Lab in the future. read more

Finally tried this place and it didn't disappoint. When you walk in, it's clean, fixtures and furniture are bright white, seats and tables have plugs for your devices, definitely a millennial-friendly atmosphere. Like a fresh, shiny new Starbucks for macarons. Bold Flavors: Best for me was Salted Caramel. Next was vanilla, very obvious flavor. Green tea was also apparent and mild. Pistachio and chocolate didn't blow me away. All the reviews being positive are true: the macarons are the best I've ever tried. Dare I say they are BETTER than Alon's? Perhaps. Definitely worth a visit. The only reason for the 4 stars is because they are the same price as Alon's, and even though the bakery is beautiful inside, the aesthetics of its surroundings are a complete contrast to the bakery itself. It's like a pristine sterile lab was dropped in the middle of an dusty, old strip mall. For the price, it seems this cute place belongs among better neighbors. read more
