Georgetown Cupcake

We got a dozen of them assorted in 2 packs. Absolutely delicious, the frosting and cake both were good. Was skeptical about the mixed reviews of the place but it’s worth the wait time and money. Visited on Memorial Day it was a really long queue outside the shop, it moves quite fast. And it’s a grab and go place. The red velvet cupcakes were our favourite. There parking was difficult. The shop is well maintenance and clean.

The place has room for a couple of guests so mostly people grab the cupcakes to go. I ordered a red velvet cupcake and my friend choose a coconut one. You can actually feel the softness of the cupcake that has been made recently. Not overly sweet, just the perfect amount. However, they made a BIG mistake when they mixed butter cream with the cream cheese. (Red velvet uses only cream cheese, this is one of the biggest differences) I'm not gonna talk about the coffee because they're not focused in that. But I will say NO. Prices are by the brand, so to try once it's ok. (To them: Check the restrooms more often!!!)

Excellent service and cupcakes. The cupcakes are well balanced in flavor (very true to description), cake-to-icing ratio, and size (a reasonable size for one person to enjoy). An interesting selection of seasonal flavors, with classics such as chocolate peppermint. The store is small but had ample room to navigate other customers. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, the service was excellent. There is space to enjoy a cupcake it two in the shop as well.

We recently visited NYC, stopping by the Georgetown Cupcakes on Mercer Street in the Soho District. This is a famous bakery from the D.C. area that we have very much enjoyed during visits to the nation's capital as well as Boston in recent years. As such, we were quite excited to try their bakery here in Manhattan. We weren't disappointed. There are a handful of tables to enjoy cupcakes in their shop. Alternatively, you can purchase boxes of cupcakes to take back to your hotel if you want to try a few varieties than is possible to eat during your visit to the bakery. Of the cupcakes we tried at this Georgetown Cupcakes, we most enjoyed the vegan apple cinnamon and the outstanding lemon cheesecake, which was more of a traditional NYC style cheesecake served up in cupcake form. Sweet graham cracker base and delicious, slightly tarty cheesecake filling - this was just delicious. In the end, we very much enjoyed the Georgetown cupcakes again. We will almost certainly continue to include stops at their branches where we can find them during our travels.

Don’t walk, run for these cupcakes. The BEST cupcakes I have ever had and that is the first dessert I try every time I visit a new city. I tried a raspberry cheesecake and peanut butter cupcakes the first day and looooved how good they are and went back the next day for more. This time I got 6 raspberry cheesecake, raspberry lemon cheesecake, lava fudge cupcake, peanut butter lava cheesecake, cookies and cream and red velvet cupcake. Although we had to wait for over 40mins as it was a Saturday afternoon, they are well worth the time. Raspberry cheesecake and cookies and cream are my favorite. If you are in DC area, don’t forget to give these cupcakes a chance and I bet you will get hooked. 5 stars is too less for this store.
