    I came to this location to try out the banana pudding bar as I am a huge fan of magnolia's banana pudding I was initially going to go with the red velvet pudding but when I asked about the strawberry pudding and after conversing with the preparer I decided to go with the strawberry and I am glad I did, the pudding was super fresh as were the bananas to the point where it almost felt healthy! and with there being actual banana pieces and strawberry in it whose to say it isn't? the way the young lady with the glasses who prepared this was bar none, Ive been enjoying magnolia for YEARS but never had I had a pudding this good!

    Banana pudding

    This location didn't seem as busy as the other locations and was located inside the mall. Luckily, there was little to no wait. There is seating around the area. Just like many others, I came for the banana pudding. It tasted solid, but it wasn't anything mind-blowing. The medium size is good enough to share with 2-3 people. It was sweet, creamy and filling. It was nice to try for the one time.

    Cookies and cream Banana pudding
    Haley H.

    I was so excited to try the banana pudding bar but honestly it was way too sweet! I love dessert but I ended up throwing part of this away because the sweetness was making me a bit sick. I got the cookies and cream banana pudding from the banana pudding bar for around $10. The service was fine and I liked this location inside the mall. There are seats nearby. I would go back to try the regular banana pudding but any extra toppings is too much

    Classic Banana Pudding ($4.95 for small)

    [Food] - Classic Banana Pudding ($4.95 for a small): So creamy, banana forward, and soft cake! I've only had one really good banana pudding in my life but wow this is phenomenal! I was hesitant at first but we got it cause my friend was craving sweets. Love it! [Service] - Fast and friendly [Ambiance] - Small and casual shop - there are tables close by [Overall] - Would come back again for the banana pudding and to try their ice cream!

    Huuuuge fan of Magnolia Bakery! They have a lot of locations and I always manage to stumble upon one when I visit home. Their banana pudding is to die for! A medium size can definitely be split amongst 3 people. I've never had any of their cakes or other desserts but hope to try some soon!

    Matcha banana pudding
    Jessica Y.

    I was so excited to try this month's special flavor, matcha banana pudding. There was fortunately a very short line when we stopped by. They only had the large size left of the matcha flavor. When I opened the container, it initially looked promising with a layer of matcha powder. However, as we started working our way through the container it just looked like the regular banana pudding with maybe one other layer of matcha powder. There was absolutely no matcha taste. While there's certainly nothing wrong with the original banana pudding (it was still very tasty), I was super disappointed by the matcha flavor. There was lots of potential with this flavor. However, I did reach out to customer service and they were very quick to respond.

    I came here and got a confetti cupcake! It was super yummy - not too sweet. The sprinkles kind of got everywhere though. The guy who helped me was very kind too.

    Pumpkin Spice Pudding Small
    Rochelle N.

    Run don't walk to try the pumpkin spice pudding, especially if you love any kind of pumpkin dessert. This was so delicious!! It had gobs of cookie butter mixed in with the normal banana pudding mix ins and everything just complimented each other really well. The shop is tiny but there was no wait on a Saturday afternoon. Really easy to just pickup what you're looking for and the workers are so sweet.

    Magnolia's reputation speaks for itself. The line was long but moved steadily, and it was absolutely worth the wait. The portions are generous for the price--a large classic banana pudding costs $8.75. I usually avoid banana pudding with sliced bananas because I don't like how they turn brown, but I loved that Magnolia blends the bananas right into the pudding. It was incredibly delicious, and my only regret is not buying more than one. The place was clean, the staff was friendly, and I highly recommend it!

    Variety of desserts

    No wait and a chance to try their famous banana pudding, sign me up!! I stopped by the Magnolia Bakery shop located in Hudson Yards on the 4th floor. As there was pretty much no wait, I easily ordered a banana pudding and was off on my way to eat it. I ordered a medium size which was perfect to share with others to try their famous banana pudding. It was very creamy and the hint of banana taste complimented it well. There are plenty of tables on each floor so you can easily find a spot to enjoy.

    I would wait in ANY long line to have their desserts. Service was fast and friendly as there were several people lined up. I tried the chocolate cake slice and the banana pudding. A lot more whip cream for my taste but still delicious. This is upstairs at the Hudson yards

    Banana pudding, lemon bar, caramel pecan cheesecake
    Felicia K.

    Visited magnolia twice as a tourist. I got the banana pudding and I would get it again when I come back. I also got the lemon bar and the caramel pecan cheesecake. The banana pudding was a great hit. I enjoyed it so much. It was creamy with a good ratio of the cracker and banana in each bite. It was pretty sweet but I have a sweet tooth so it was to my liking. The lemon bar was really good too. It wasn't too sour and a good sweetness balance. I like my pastries warm so I did heat mine up a little. If be careful with this as it can melt but u lived the taste. The caramel pecan cheesecake is probably my number one. I love cheesecake but especially the texture of this one. Most cheesecakes are heavy and thick. This one was light and creamy. It wasn't too sweet as you'd think it would be with caramel but the drizzle on mine kept a good balance. I will definitely be coming back for more of these items next time I'm in New York!

    Large Banana Pudding
    Alisa B.

    What's not to like? Known for their famous banana pudding, this was the perfect stop while shopping at Hudson Yards. There was a short line, but it was worth the wait! The difference between a small serving and a large cup of banana pudding is HUGE. So you might as well get the large... The texture is delicious! Fluffy, decadent, and almost mimicks ice cream with its creaminess. Definitely deserves the hype!

It felt like items weren't made with care and mass produced at a factory or something. I went 10 minutes before they closed and there was still 10+ of each dessert. I'm not convinced that they will dispose of them. Even if they do, it means they didn't do a good job in forecasting demand especially after being in business for multiple years. I ordered mango and yuzu. Both were too sweet and had one dimensional flavor and textures, not refreshing per their stated flavors. Even if their appearances take effort, they don't look pretty enough for me to forgive what goes in my mouth. I'm used to having patisseries with many layers and elements. Mango's sponge probably only took up 20% of the bottom, because I barely had bites of it. Most of my bites didn't have any. I didn't like how liquid the filling was. It didn't exactly ooze out but just melted into a puddle in my mouth. Yuzu looks pretty with the pink and yellow glaze, but it didn't go with the realistic fruit theme. I chose it for the flavor combination which is strawberry, yuzu, and guava. This was slightly better in terms of flavor variety in the mouth. The flower on top had a weird off putting flavor. The bottom crispy rice apparently is supposed to be chocolate but it came out plain. It was tasteless anyway, so not effective in terms of flavor or texture.

I had to run to work after an appointment so I ordered for takeout. The person taking my order was friendly. I opted for the Lumberjack and a black cold brew. I received the drink very quickly, with a short wait for the sandwich. While waiting, one member of the staff stocking up supplies on the side started chatting with me and then she offered to check up on my sandwich. She came out with it shortly thereafter. She was very friendly and helpful. The sandwich held up well during my 15-minute commute to the office. It is a really indulgent sandwich, with each bite revealing the sweetness and butteriness of the maple crueller, the saltiness of the thick cut bacon, and the savoriness of the cheese and the eggs as the yolks popped. I sipped the cold brew in between bites to cut the richness. It was a very satisfying meal. The Lumberjack is not something I would recommend you eat every day, but it's good as an occasional treat. In the past I've ordered lunch from Daily Provisions via delivery (the "Chefy" salad and the chicken milanese with arugula salad are my favorites), but I might start adding other breakfast sandwiches to the mix.

I had never heard of the place before, but I was happy to give it a try -- and I'm so glad I did. From the moment you walk in, the experience feels special. The store has two beautiful double doors that create such a grand entrance, and once inside, you immediately feel the energy. The place was bustling with people, and everyone seemed happy and excited -- from the customers to the team behind the counter and the baristas. The cookie case was overflowing with so many amazing choices that it was hard to decide! I ended up getting the Rocky Road cookie, a Double Chocolate Chip cookie, a Two Chip Chocolate Chip cookie, and a blueberry muffin to enjoy for breakfast the next morning. The service was absolutely impeccable, and everyone I interacted with was warm, friendly, and delightful. When I got home, I had half of the Rocky Road cookie with a cup of tea, and it was incredible. The cookie was large and chunky but still perfectly enjoyable -- not heavy or overwhelming. It literally melted in my mouth. The chocolate was rich and smooth, and every bite was just delicious. The next morning, I tried the blueberry muffin, and it was just as impressive. It was light and airy, not overly sweet like many blueberry muffins can be. It truly felt like a breakfast pastry. The blueberries tasted fresh and burst with flavor in every bite. I will definitely be back for more cookies. This was such a wonderful find, and I'm so happy my coworker introduced me to this place!

I will say that I didn't think I would like this cookie at all since usually I like thinner crunchier cookies. But holy cow!!

For such a big cookie the middle was cooked perfectly. Very chunky and sizable cookie too so I ate it throughout the day rather than one sitting!!

They are running a really interesting under the counter espresso machine where the main bulk of the equipment is hidden away, leaving just these sleek, minimal group heads rising up from the counter. It was my first time seeing a machine of that style in person, and it looks incredibly sharp. I would absolutely come back here next time I'm in the area.
