Crumbs

01/30/2008 Posted by Luv2Dine2

Yuk! As the other reviews state, location does matter. I usually get Crumbs at 42nd Street and have fallen in love with their cupcakes but when I was rushing home and decided to grab one at this location I was surprised on the difference in taste. The cupcake was so stale! Weeks later I was in the Union Square area again and too lazy to go to another location I decided to give this location one more try (just in case it was a fluke). But yet again I was disappointed and vowed to never return. 8th Street Crumbs is off my list!

Pros: Location

Cons: Everything else

I love the cupcakes at Crumbs, but everytime I eat my cupcake at their store it seems like they never clean their tables and there's crumbs everywhere, on the tables and on their seats. The tables in the back of the store are always dirty. Your best bet is to take the cupcake to go, unless you want to eat it on a table that looks like it hasn't been wiped down all day.

Pros: Yummy cupcakes!

Cons: Dirty tables! Crumbs everywhere!

I FIRST VISITED THE ONE ON 3RD.AVE AND I GOT SO HOOKED ON THE CUPCAKES,I ASKED MY HUBBY THE NEXT TIME HED BE IN THE CITY HE BETTER GET ME MORE, WELL HE WENT TO THIS LOCATION INSTEAD AND FOR SOME REASON THEY DIDNT QUITE HAVE THE SAME TASTE, I WAS A BIT DISSAPPOINTED.ALSO THE CHOC.CHIP COOKIES HAD COLORING ON THEM, IT LOOKED LIKE THEY PLACED THEM ONTO A TRAY THAT HAD RAINBOW SPRINKLES, SO THEY GOT SLOPPY ON THAT.BUT ID RATHER RETURN TO THE OTHER LOCATION, DONT KNOW WHY THERE WAS A TASTE DIFFERENCE, BUT I SURELY NOTICED..

These cupcakes have decadent, delicious frosting and are moist and satisfying- they cost a little more than Magnolia's (about $2.95 for the small ones, more for the larger/more elaborate ones) but they are definitely worth the extra cost- you can choose from a wide variety of colors and flavors and there are often themed or holiday-inspired cupcakes that would be so great for a birthday or party. Definitely recommended.

Pros: delicious cupcakes

Cons: slightly pricey if buying a lot

The cupcakes here are delish. I tried the Cappacino and Carrot Cake & they both were delicious. The cake was moist (even though it was nearly closing time) and the frosting was not overpowering or too sweet. I ate every CRUMB off the place. They are huge, so you may want to try the sample box. I also tried the Devil Dog one & that was good too. I am not a huge chocolate fan but I will eat anything chocolate at Crumbs! I will definitely come back to try out all the other flavors. The ones I wanted to try were all sold out because they're so popular!

Pros: Delicious cupcakes, not too sweet

Cons: Closes early
