So excited to visit this new Maddie Lu store in Blaine. Finally took the time to visit after seeing…read morea yard staked sign by the NSC fields....I made a U-turn!! The vibe is similar to the OG bakery in Coon Rapids. Very clean, simply decor that makes you feel welcome. We caught the place during a quiet lull so we have fast customer service. I picked out a 5- piece box of macarons. You pick the flavors to fill the box. Plenty of options to choose from. I loved the color coordination on the display case. I also picked out an oreo cupcake and oatmeal cheesecake cup. I haven't met a dessert by Maddie Lu that I haven't liked. Can't wait to try the macarons! Happy to have you in the area.

First time trying Maddie Lu's baked goods. They are located next to Jimmy John's and Clive…read moreRoadhouse off of Central & 105. I bought five macarons for $12 and a raspberry cheesecake cookie. You can also buy the macarons individually for $2.50 or 10 macarons for $24. They also have cupcakes too. They can also be found on DoorDash, but you can't select your flavors, though I suppose you could put it in the special instruction, so I decided to just stop by the store. When I first arrived, I was greeted and serviced immediately. The staff member was patient as I took a moment to decide which flavors. I also noticed they have some unique design macarons that look like a shark but in a vanilla flavor. The store is clean and has simple decor. It looks like they have a backdrop for a photo op. I felt very welcome in the store. I used to do subscription macarons, but it became pricey. I much prefer Macarons by Maddie Lu due to the flavor options, being able to obtain them locally, and I can choose the amount of macarons to have. They are very delicious, smell good, and have a nice crunch when you bite them. The raspberry cheesecake cookie was soft even after refrigeration for a few hours - I split and shared the cookie with my husband and it cut easily even after being in the fridge.

I appreciate the floors and decoration, they 100% lean into the Italian culture. The service is always great, everyone smiles and makes sure your selection is to your liking. I've gotten coffee, macaroons, gelato, everything from here and they never disappoint. It's always a great time, especially meeting friends or just grabbing some good sips on the go. I had a gelato with one scoop of this raspberry sorbet and another scoop mango, I loved the fruitiness and texture. It's a bit pricey which knocks down a star, but otherwise a lifelong favorite. P.S. I love the parking and that ITS FREE.

Service: wonderful. I met the owner and she is SO SWEET…read more Ambiance: spacious and lots of seating Food: okay to pretty good There are so many desserts and pastries here! There are also Banh mis and Vietnamese coffee. I liked the almond croissant and the salted caramel Vietnamese coffee. They had great flavor and tasted fresh. The cream puff was decent and not too heavy, and the strawberry croissant was too sweet and heavy for me. The pandan dessert had really good pandan flavor, but the inside was a little too sweet and rich for me. I split it up into a few dessert meals. The owner was really nice and gave a free French bread, which I also liked. It wasn't too thick and it had a nice crisp to the outside. I would come back to try a couple other desserts and get the almond croissant again!

I absolutely loved how the shimmer and star embellishments turned out! I ordered 3 flavors: strawberry yuzu, Dubai chocolate, and gochujang caramel. The gochujang caramel blew my mind -- it was sooo chewy and sweet with a hint of spiciness from the gochujang. The Dubai chocolate perfectly captured the signature crunch. The strawberry yuzu had a nice tart filling that complemented the strawberry cream. Absolutely thrilled with how the macarons turned out and would definitely work with Jolynn again!

I was met with a VERY nice woman who explained everything out to me! 11/10 on costumer service!! Truly, this is some of the best costumer service I have had in awhile! I picked out 8 flavors and a candle. They have a small selection of other items besides the macarons. There are 2 tables inside for sitting down to snack with 2 chairs at each table. Don't make a rookie mistake like me! These are refrigerated when you first get them. Let them come to room temp before you eat them! I had some of them right away and while they did taste good, they were REALLY good when they were room temp. These are delicate and delicious! These are definitely some of the best I have ever had! My top 3 flavors I enjoyed were: 1) Blueberry cheesecake 2) Almond 3) Raspberry I also got a soy candle and it is the perfect fall scent! Can't wait to burn it later in the year! These would make a great gift as well as a treat for yourself!

We will be regularly returning. The prices came across as a bit high on first blush, but after eating they were fair noting a.) the quality, b.) the work that goes into making a croissant (watch great British baking show if you aren't aware), and c.) the size (I would say they are 1.5-2x the typical croissant size, consider sharing if you're not too hungry). Service was friendly and timely.
