I got the Rose, grapefruit, lavender, Earl Gary, Orange Heaven and lemon. Each macaron I could vividly taste the flavor they were going for. They were all good, but my favorite were the grapefruit and lemon. The macarons felt a bit too sweet and are pricey, hence removing one star. There is plenty of street parking in the neighborhood near by and the ambience is very small cute place. Girl at the front was kind. Definitely check this place out for macarons! Will be back for their pastries!

Gordough's is one of those places that fully commits to indulgence. I was able to place my order online and schedule for pick up. The order was ready when I arrived. Parking was a bit challenging and the lot was full and they charge for parking. Service was quick, casual, just good energy and fast turnaround. I ordered my tried and true Miss Shortcake with their famous cake donut with cream cheese icing and fresh cut strawberries. The donut is so indulgent and was served warm with the most delectable flavor combinations. Tried the Son of a Peach with cream cheese icing, spiced peach filling, cake mix topping, cinnamon and sugar with honey butter. This one was a bit too overindulgent and sweet for my liking but was definitely worth a try. Portions are huge and can be shared as the donut is not as good warmed over. If you're in the mood for dessert and not think about calorie count, then this is the place.

Even…read morethough they're based in Austin, they ship nationwide, which makes it really convenient if you're looking for custom cookies for an event or gift. Both times I ordered custom cookies, and the whole process was incredibly smooth. If you've ever ordered decorated cookies before, you know the process can sometimes feel complicated with designs, quantities, timelines, etc., but their team made it super easy from start to finish. What really stood out to me was the customer service. The staff were amazing and incredibly responsive, answering all of my questions and making sure everything was clear before placing the order. They made the entire experience feel effortless, which I really appreciated. And of course, the cookies themselves were beautifully decorated. The designs were clean, detailed, and exactly what I was hoping for. They're the kind of cookies that look almost too pretty to eat -- but once you do, you realize they taste great too. These are perfect for events, gifts, or special occasions, especially if you want something personalized that still feels high-quality and professional. Would I order again? Absolutely. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again for another event or gift

The cake was rich, moist, and full of chocolatey goodness. Everyone loved it! The shop itself has a really nice ambience. It's cozy, with plenty of seating if you want to hang out for a bit. They're mainly known for their decorated cookies, which looked amazing too. I'll definitely be going back to try those next time.

My kids are prolific frosting eaters. They never really eat the cake- and they're big fans. We get the minis and they enjoy looking in the case and picking their own. I did take one star off because my kids and friends kid were being typical toddlers. They were in a silly post-swim class mood and were giggling and dancing around as we ordered. The staff seemed overwhelmed and I started to feel rushed. I had basic requests, "put one vanilla cupcake in a separate bag as it's a gift. Make the rest to go" etc. I was sort of made to feel like we were too much. Kids aren't for everyone- trust me I know they are overstimulating. But this shop is a delight to their little eyes, please don't make them feel unwelcome.

As always, my day has turned around thanks to Captain quacks! I love this place so very much. My go-to is usually their vegan chocolate muffin.

The ambience here is an absolutely awesome vibe I always feel comfortable here with the right blend of people, and the awesome people who work here.
