The dipping cabinet was full of great flavors this week, fruity, chocolatey, creamy, with sorbets and ice cream alike. I was eyeing the mango and coconut and pina colada, but needed a caffeine boost, so I settled on the very tasty espresso chip and chocolate. They had tons of cupcakes, from red velvet to birthday cake, lemon cheesecake and chocolate mousse cake slices. Macarons by the dozen were ready for snacking. Staff were friendly and wearing masks. They had a plexi divider between the front and back of house. Prices are fair.

Alright, I wanted to love this place more but the macarons weren't a huge stand out to me - they…read morewere good but nothing to really write home about compared to other places I've been. They do have a nice selection of flavors though, like honey lavender, passion fruit, birthday cake, white chocolate, peppermint, and more. I think the bigger thing though was the staff member doing the mask under the nose thing. I know I could have said something, but I honestly don't think it should be up to the customer to tell you to wear a mask properly - I'm not a person who likes conflict and is uncomfortable telling people what to do, but it made me feel uncomfortable and later on I was even feeling uncomfortable to eat the macarons because I kept feeling like what if droplets got on these?? Etc. I know that's not likely but still - they're the thoughts that go through your head and something the business should be aware of. So I would just say for future be aware of proper mask use.

I stumbled upon Woops while away to the Apple store. The kiosk was so white that it caught my eye…read moreright away, and I realized it was Woops. I like macarons even if the price for these bite-size gems is $$$. I try to purchase some every time I see them so I can share. I tried and joked and said can I get 6 for 5 and to my surprise they gave it to me so I ended up with a box of 6 macarons. The fillings were all so creamy and every flavor was so distinct. The macarons practically melt in your mouth. Service was super friendly and nice and I enjoyed my experience here. I would recommend this place to anyone at any time.

I highly recommend the place.

The counter was emptied when we first came but it filled up pretty quickly. We just got a matcha latte and one prix fixe menu to share. For the main dessert, we picked the chocolate and hojicha soufflé. The chocolate soufflé was light and airy and not too sweet. It paired very well with the hojicha ice cream and caramel apple on the side. Overall, all the dessert was pretty good but everything was very small and I don't think it tasted that good that it worth $30. The service was also not that great. My husband and I were a little confused when we first got into the store and we weren't sure if we needed to be seated. A lady that worked there saw us but never greeted us nor gave us water until we asked. It took a while for someone to acknowledge us and it just made us felt a little uncomfortable.
