Molly's Cupcakes is by far the best cupcake shop I've tried in NYC. Their cupcakes are perfectly moist, full of flavor and not overly sweet with amazing frosting to match. I've been here several times and have always received friendly, excellent service. Most recently, I ordered 26 custom cupcakes for an event and couldn't have been happier. They looked beautiful, tasted incredible and were a huge hit. Highly recommend! read more

Very cute inside with plenty of seats even swings. Many cupcake flavors and make your own cupcakes. Minis available too. Rice crispy treats- mini cupcakes and sprinkles always free! Would definitely recommend. Perfect for kids and adults alike. The mini bite-size cupcakes are just enough. Service was great, and the prices are fair. read more

This is a cute little cupcakes shop. First thing you notice when you walk in is the cute swings if you get the chance to snag one. Very limited amount of them and one with of them was out of order. Went during a beautiful spring day, but it was like a sauna inside. There's seating inside and areas to stand at the window and people watch while you eat your delicious cupcake. Got the crème brûlée and it did not disappoint. Nice crispy top, not too sweet and not too big. Welcome back to try the peach cobbler. The flavor selections were great. read more

Came as the last stop of our Greenwich Village food tour. The best mini red velvet with perfect cream cheese frosting. My son and the teem siblings, that he met sat in the whimsical swing seats. We ordered a chocolate raspberry Chantilly cupcake with tart fresh raspberry filling and a giant rice crispy treat that was very special! Prices were less than San Francisco area $7 cupcake stickers. Fantastic balance of flavors and proportions of cake to frosting were perfect. There is the sweetest reading nook in the back. read more

Beautiful and delicious cupcake selections. We came to Molly's as part of a food tour. We tried the mini red velvet cupcake with sweet cream cheese icing. It was yummy. I love that they have regular sizes as well as mini sizes, and vegan options. Beautiful atmosphere, and some of the seats are on a swing. Service is friendly and comfortable. I would definitely wanna come back and try other flavors. read more

I'm rarely impressed by sweets.. most desserts are just too sugary for me, but Molly's Cupcakes totally surprised me. I got the chocolate on chocolate and it was amazing. Super soft, moist cake with cream that melts inside, and a rich chocolate flavor that's perfectly balanced. It was indulgent but not too sweet, which made it absolutely perfect. Definitely coming back for more read more

Couldn't decide on which cupcake to get, so many interesting choices. Ended up getting the crème brulee and the blueberry cheesecake cupcakes. Both are very yummy! read more

Stopped here on a food tour earlier this month. I was a little surprised that we'd be trying cupcakes and I said to myself- how special can a cupcake be? I WAS WRONG! That miniature cupcake is something I haven't stopped thinking about since I had it. They are the winners of cupcake wars and the real deal!! That buttercream frosting- I wish they sold it so I could drink it. It was insane. Staff were friendly and inside was clean. I'll think about that cupcake and it's frosting forever. Cake was perfect and moist. Don't ever doubt a Mollys Cupcake!! read more

This was my first time trying Molly's Cupcakes, and as someone with a serious sweet tooth, I can confidently say these cupcakes are delicious! They're perfectly balanced, sweet but not overly sugary, and the frosting is just right, not too buttery. I got the Spooky Halloween 4 pack Cupcakes. My favorite was the red velvet and the chocolate salted caramel cupcakes. I'll definitely be back to get some more. The shop itself is a nice size and has a lot of sitting. I felt a welcoming vibe there, like you can grab your cupcake, sit down for a while there to relax or read a book. read more

These cupcakes are delicious and unmatched with flavor that is always consistent. I purchased these for a birthday party and they were the star of the show! The service is always top notch. I always order a dozen it is a value price and you can mix the flavors. Some of my top flavors are birthday cake, peach cobbler, crème brûlée, blueberry cheesecake and brownie. read more

I recently picked up a dozen cupcakes from here to celebrate a coworker's birthday. All the flavors are so good! They have plain build-your-own options (ex.: vanilla cake + vanilla frosting, etc.) and a ton of more special cupcakes (ex.: Boston Cream Pie). Good customer service and pretty affordable for how high-quality it is. read more

Discovered Molly's while walking in the Village. What a wonderful surprise! LOVED the Lemonade! Cute interior. Tasty Cupcake. Can't wait to return! read more

Loved the variety of cupcake flavors. The waiters were sweet and the ambiance of the store was nice. Super cozy dessert shop!

Once you eat one of these cupcakes... you wouldn't want to go back to any others. Their cupcakes are full with flavors. Try it. I got the peach cobbler, apple pie, peanut butter Nutella, and Boston's crème flavor cupcakes. I enjoyed the peach cobbler the most. My least was the Boston crème one. I would say the peanut butter Nutella came second and apple pie third place. Boston crème was good but needed more crème in the middle. I went to an event two days later and they had stop and shop cupcakes. I could not bring myself to have one stop and shop cupcake. I remembered the taste of Mollys cupcake. What makes Molly cupcake special is that , not only do they taste scrumptious, they are original. Mollys was inspired by a third grade teacher. I will say that it is certainly worth to try! They do not disappoint. Staff were very kind. Lovely ambiance. This location is located in Bleecker street, Manhattan. Near West 4th! read more

Not sure the hype here. Came here to grab a few dozen cupcakes. Service is lovely but the cupcakes themselves are denser than normal, and frosting is very heavy and sweet. For me it wasn't the right balance of flavors for either the cake or the frosting. Glad I tried but not sure I would come here again. read more

Amazing option for vegan cupcakes! They are delicious!! You can choose vanilla or chocolate cake and vanilla or chocolate frosting.

This is such a cute spot for a little sweet treat. There are so many flavors to choose from and it's really difficult to decide. I ended up getting the Ron Bennington (PB Chocolate) and the Cookie Monster (cookie dough). There were both so good and have such a nostalgic cake and frosting. I'm definitely gonna have to come back and try more flavors. read more

I really enjoyed the cake butter cupcake. It has a surprise so make sure you have napkins. The cake was very soft and warm. The decor feels like I'm in an episode of friends. Ladies this is definitely a place you wear your uggs to and get sweet treats. For my guys this is definitely where you take a girl. You'll get points for this. Shout out to Molly's cupcake but not Molly at the counter because she seemed like she didn't want to be bothered today but I guess that's just New York right? read more

This is the perfect place to slow down, do some reading/journaling, meet with friends, or bring your little ones. 10/10! read more

No exaggeration, the salted caramel butterscotch cupcake is the best cupcake I've ever had in my life. A coworker brought them into work so I can't speak on the customer service or anything else but that damn cupcake is awesome sauce! read more

The cupcakes were delish - I especially liked the buttercream ones. My favorite was the chocolate cupcake with buttercream frosting and white chocolate shaving. Decadent, moist, and yummy goodness. The red velvets with cream cheese filling were my second favorite. I am normally not a cupcake fan, because I had my fair share of overly sweet frosting, with dry cupcakes. However, this was love at first bite. The cupcake was moist all the way through. The buttercream was just the right amount of sweet and fluffy. read more

Stopped in on a food tour and WOW! The flavors are creative and all sound delish. My taster cupcake was perfectly moist and flavorful. The mini was plenty for me - I assume you have to ask for these? I'm not a red velvet fan but the one I tried here was delish. Great place to satisfy a sweet tooth! read more

We love Molly's. Stopped there to get a few cupcakes for my kids. Usually I get buttermilk icing. Very yummy. Sitting there is ok but can feel loud & is always very stuffy. But the girls serving are usually nice & helpful although they can let their hip attitude take the better of them. Still my family's fav local place. read more

My new favorite cupcake in town!! I have been wanting to try this place for years ever since I heard they had a cake batter-filled cupcake. I loooove anything cake batter/birthday cake/funfetti vibes, so I'd been dying to try, but I somehow just hadn't made it around to trying until tonight. But boy, it did not disappoint! The filling literally tastes like fresh cake batter straight from the mixing bowl; so nostalgic! I liked the buttercream frosting, but it wasn't my favorite part (though my friend thought it was a little much/ too thick, and I noticed some other people had scooped their frosting off of this cupcake, too). I thought it overall was perfect though! I also liked that the cupcake itself was lighter / not too dense. I would use a fork next time haha; it got a little messy/out of hand once I got to the center (but it was sooo good). I am 1000% going to make this a new go-to; I don't think I'll be able to walk past it again without stopping in for a cake batter cupcake! Also, bonus points for their cute swing seats :) read more

This place is so cute! We love the "school" theme with all the décor. The tables look like old school student desks and the "bar" area seating is made up of swings that give a nod to the playground. The names of the flavors are given superlatives such as "Best Smile". They have some great flavors and if there isn't one that fits your fancy, you can also do a build your own by choosing from the cake flavors and icing flavors on their menu. What we ordered: - Blueberry Cheesecake "Best Smile" - Vanilla cake infused with classic cheesecake, cinnamon graham cracker crumb, pastry cream and glazed blueberry toppings - Crème Brulee "The Foreign Exchange Student" - Vanilla cake, classic crème brulee custard, caramelized sugar coating and glazed berries - Samoa "Class Trouper" - Vanilla cake with coconut caramel filling dipped in dark chocolate ganache topped with caramel buttercream and shortbread chunks - Ron Bennington "Most Likely to Succeed" - Chocolate cake with peanut butter filling, chocolate ganache and crushed butterscotch topping - Build Your Own - Carrot cake and Cream Cheese frosting. We even got a little sample of the Brown Butter frosting on the side and it was divine. We came in pretty late and it looks like some of the flavors were sold out but we still managed to snag a good amount, looking forward to coming back and trying out more. Only thing I would suggest is more drink options that don't have caffeine, for those who are coming later in the day. Possibly some school sized mini cartons of milk, to play into the theme? Eating all of these sweets did make us pretty thirsty. My partner ended up ordering a coffee and although they did not sell milk per se they did have it for the coffee drinks and they were nice enough to give us a half a mug of milk on the side which he gave to my sister. They also have cups and a self service water dispenser for you to use as well. read more

I was in the neighborhood yesterday and always looking for dessert places that offer gluten free options for my wife. Came across this one place that serves cupcakes and was told they have flourless molten chocolate cupcake that is supposed to be scrumptious. I bought one of that and a blueberry cheesecake regular cupcake. Both my wife and son enjoyed their treats. Each was going for about $3.75 plus tax when seems fair. Aside from these two, they have at least 10 other options for selection. You can also get a plain cupcake and add your choice of frosting and topping. read more

I will preface this review by saying that I am not someone who goes out of their way to seek out cupcakes. As a dessert genre that is sort of designed to be cute, I so often find them to be more aesthetically pleasing than delicious. Molly's, though, is located quite close to me, and one night recently when passing by I was compelled to stop in and get an assortment of cupcakes for no particular reason. My partner and I cut them into pieces and did a fun little taste test. All of the flavors were good, but the most memorable for me was the "Ron Bennington" (chocolate cake, peanut butter filling, chocolate ganache, crushed butterscotch topping). Part of what I don't like about a lot of cupcakes is the cloying sweetness- and this one is less sweet and more rich. This is definitely what I will choose next time I want to indulge in solo cupcake and Netflix time. Surprisingly, another favorite for both of us was the plain 'ol chocolate mini cupcakes with white frosting. They are so simple, so classic, and perfectly executed with just the right balance of rich chocolate cake and sweet icing. This is definitely what I'll choose next time I need to pick up something to bring to a dinner or party. Overall though, the most notable thing about all of the flavors we tried was that Molly's cupcakes taste of REAL ingredients. You immediately notice that the frosting is made of real butter --so... much... butter-- and that nothing appears an unnaturally bright color or bears the unmistakable aftertaste of food coloring. I think this is what sets Molly's apart from some other nearby purveyors of cupcakes like Baked By... well, you know who. read more

The first time I ever visited this place, I tried Creme Brulée, it was so good that I kept coming back for the same flavor. Yesterday, I tried Chocolate Decadence, and now it's my new favorite! These are honestly the best cupcakes I've had in New York. They are soft and moist with the perfect balance of flavors without being too sweet. There's still so many different flavors I want to try! read more

So delicious!!! The cupcakes were so moist that you absolutely needed a fork to eat them (in a good way!). We tried a 4 pack and all of the flavors were delicious but the flourless chocolate one was my favorite. The best part of the cupcake was the frosting! It wasn't overwhelming sweet and really let the cupcake shine! read more

Our Greenwich Village food tour ended at Molly's, and we popped in for a sweet treat after some delicious savory foods. The shop is named for the owner's elementary school teacher, Molly, and there are elementary school themes that run through the shop, like indented areas on each table for pencils and the use of school bus yellow. Super cute. There are also swings at the counter as seating - they were surprisingly comfortable! The cupcakes themselves were fine. I use red velvet and chocolate as my barometers at any cupcake shop, because they're prevalent, but also easy to mess up. These were a little dry. In all, the cupcakes were good, but nothing special. I would go back just for the theme, but I probably wouldn't go too far out of my way to return. read more

I really love the cupcakes here. Service is always excellent, everyone is friendly and helpful. I recently stopped in to pick up some cupcakes to bring to work. The minis are great because they aren't too small but just enough to have a little treat. I love that you can mix and match the frosting and cake flavors. I absolutely adore the French buttercream, it's almost like whipped cream and goes perfectly with the vanilla or red velvet cake. I love hanging out in the there when its quiet and enjoying a cupcake. I used to order the filled cupcakes-love the cake batter and especially the peach cobbler. If you're in the area, definitely stop by. It's in a pretty easy to find location right on Bleecker and 6th ave. read more
