Magnolia Bakery - Washington, D.C.

I love banana pudding. I am often disappointed with commercial offerings. I was very skeptical of this tiny tub, that was nearly $5 (4.6-something as of writing this). Could that really pack a dessert that I would love and feel justified in the expense? For me the answer was yes. Definitely yes. The banana pudding was thick and luscious and full of banana goodness. I am tempted as I write this to go acquire another, larger tub and eat it for lunch. If the rest of their baked goods are half as delicious they will be well worth it too!

Went this morning for the first time, the shop is beautiful, the staffs very friendly and so far everything is delicious. Tried the Poppyseed Lemon Muffin, it had great flavor & density. The banana puggings very good, not my grandmothers but still very tasty and the carrot cake is to die for... that cream cheese frosting really sets it off. Highly recommend that you try them for yourselves!

I have been dying to try Magnolia Bakery and they did not disappoint. I love their adorable shop at Union Station it feels like you are entering into a special happy place. I had the vanilla cake and red velvet cake slice. They were both scrumptious, moist, flavor packed without being overly sweet and the texture was homemade perfection!

Two words: banana pudding. If you're like me, you aren't a fan of bananas in general, but don't let that prevent you from tasting their famous banana pudding. It's part cake, pudding, and bananas and it's perfect.

If pudding is not your thing, they sell a large selection of baked goods most notably their cupcakes. Compared to DC cupcake shops, their cupcakes are a little small, but they have the best frosting out of any other cupcake shop in the city.

They open at 8am during the week and sell coffee as well to cater to the daily commuter.

Definitely stop by to experience this famous NYC bakery now in Washington, D.C.!

I've been going to Magnolia bakery in NYC for several years, well every time I visit NYC. I was ecstatic to find that they had open a bakery in Washington DC. I've ordered several cakes in the past. I absolutely love the vanilla lemon bundt cake. I gladly pay the 9.00 bucks to park at Union Station just to run in and get a few slices!! Just a piece of heaven!!!!

The lord himself guided me to this establishment. For years I have traveled through Union Station everyday for work but rarely go to deep inside as I generally go from train to metro but as fate would have it this day I just missed my train and decided to take a stroll through to kill 20 minutes. I was lured into the bakery by an offer of a free sample by one of the workers. At this moment a piece of heaven graced my lips in the form of humming bird cake-it's like a pineapple carrot cake texture banana bread cake. Its sweet scrumptious & I'm addicted. Send help as I now have a problem....

As you can see the banana pudding was amazing. Service was simple, asked for what I wanted and even got a sample

A friend brought me a banana pudding last night. Heavenly! I thanked him about four times. Pure delish, creamy, rich but not over yhe top. Well worth the stop. I can see why this dessert is famous

They have an amazing banana pudding, and that isn’t even one of my favorite desserts. My husband loves banana pudding and when he sampled it he asked me to try it too. It was out of this world good.

Oh my goodness! I'm diabetic and I should have kept walking BUT, I'd rather die happy! Small treats, somewhat pricey but worth every penny, every delicious bite. Little corner stop in Union Station.

Their cupcakes are always so good. One thing I don’t like about this place is it’s inside Union Station. Parking is the biggest issue for me when visiting, but it is so worth it when you get your cupcakes and banana pudding!

Famous for its banana pudding. Same bakery from New York. Everything is fresh. Cupcakes are also superb. But wouldn’t advise the cakes

I’ve always enjoyed the locations in NYC so I was excited when they finally opened a location in DC. Friendly and polite staff. It smells amazing and presentation is 👌🏾. I’m a huge fan of the regular banana pudding but I would have liked more vanilla wafer cookies in my pudding.

Banana cream pie was amazing. Fresh and light. Great snack before catching my train

Clean store, excellent staff, sweets for the sweet tooth and banana pudding - the same banana pudding that they serve in Heaven!

The banana pudding lived up to expectations

Best bread pudding around.

The food is so good and the costumer service is amazing! They are so smiley and welcoming!

Omg the banana pudding was to die for!!! Highly recommended.

Great value and delicious, fresh baked goods.
