    I've wanted to check this place out ever since I saw it on queer eye a few years back, and it didn't disappoint! We visited during their lunar new year/6th anniversary party so it was quite busy, but we expected as much on a Saturday party day. My taiyaki sundae was tasty and exactly what I needed on a hot Austin afternoon. I love that you can swirl the flavors and choose a filling and topping to get a custom creation. Seating is very limited to their outdoor pseudo-enclosed front porch, but we ended up eating out sundaes while checking out the vendors outside. This place is so cute! I'll definitely be back.

    I have been a fan of OMG Squee since seeing the Queer Eye episode in which Sarah is featured! Living in NH I was unable to sample the wares from her bakery. But then my husband and I decided to visit Austin in February 2026! I am so Excited! I bought so many different goodies, a sticker, a few t-shirts, and a waffle mix! Omg everything was so good! The place is adorable, clean, and so well stocked! Everyone is so friendly, and once I finally decided which milk tea and goodies I wanted they quickly filled my order! There is a lot of seating on the outside of the building as well as in the front porch area- sheltered from the weather. I wish we lived closer so I could go there weekly!!

    Assorted donuts

    Started following their IG for a bit. Headed up to Austin for the weekend. Cute little spot. So much to choose from. Rotating donut and macaron selections that are posted every 2 weeks. If you like butter mochi and macarons this is the place to go. GF as well. Staff was friendly. We ended up there twice.

    Soy rose water Oolong

    Boba pearls are absolutely awful. Had to argue to get rose in my oolong because they didn't think it would pair well.. I liked the drink a lot, but the boba pearls were hard, chewy, and chalky like they didn't boil them long enough. Should have gone to coco's for boba instead. Will be back to try their soft serve

    I wish we could come here all the time. We come to OMG Squee 3-4 times a year since it's a hike from where we live. We came today for the mooncakes, and I'm so glad we didn't wait any longer to get these, because they're divine! So beautifully done. So many beautiful details, and you can tell the care they put into each cake. The mooncakes aren't too sweet, they are soft, they are delicious, and they are worth every penny! We also got my kiddo a taiyaki with Nutella, miso caramel soft serve, and Oreo (GF) dust. Perfection in every single bite. Every time, their taiyaki fills my gluten free heart with joy. It looks like they're in the middle of some renovations, and it shows! Small changes so far, but it looks like more is to come! Staff is always kind, and each time we're here we are quickly reminded why we love OMG Squee! Thank you for everything!

    HK milk tea with boba and Earl Grey and ube soft serve. Boba was hard and milk was too sweet
    Chau H.

    Maybe I got the wrong thing but I ordered the Hong Kong Milk tea with boba and the soft serve ice cream. And the HK milk tea was wayyy too sweet and I didn't taste much of the tea. They told me the boba was freshly made but it's actually undercooked or don't cook it correctly bc it was still pretty hard on the inside. I ended up throwing it away. The soft serve was actually less sweet than the drink but it lacked flavor. I wouldn't come back bc although it's gluten-free, I'll pass on the overly sweet desserts. Not very healthy.

    Ube and Earl grey soft serve
    Elizabeth H.

    The ube and Earl grey soft serve was my favorite! Very delicious and honestly, it's more than enough to share. A great dessert spot!

    First of all, the shop was so cute and pink. And second of all, the donuts are soooooo cute!! I've never heard of "butter mochi" donuts before, only ever having regular Asian mochi donuts so this was definitely new and diff!! The texture was more pastry-doughy than the Asian ones. It wasn't overly sweet either. I couldn't really taste the Thai tea in mine unfortunately.. but it was cute! I'd love to try tbe taiyaki ice cream next time :)

    OMG -- I can't believe I haven't reviewed this place yet. We've been coming here for over five years, and they are consistently outstanding. Their mochi donuts are always delicious, perfectly chewy, and absolutely addictive. This has become our go-to "special treat" spot anytime we're near the airport or want to bring something fun and unique to visiting guests. And the best part? Everything is gluten-free, which makes it a true crowd-pleaser even for the pickiest eaters. OMG Squee is one of those rare places that delivers every single time. If you want a treat that's memorable, playful, and reliably delicious, this is it.

    Mochi donut
    Mykaela C.

    OMG squee can really be a hit or a miss for me. For those who have never been this dessert shop changes their donut and ice cream flavors every two weeks. Some weeks are good, others not so much. Unfortunately this time was one of those not so good weeks. The owner is doing an adventure time themed set with four different character donuts and four inspired flavors. The only flavors that I liked were Lady lumps( the pink and green donut that is matcha, lemon, and lavender flavored), Rock N Roll Vamp( gray donut with red and Black sesame and raspberry flavored. Please bring this back), and unacceptably Lemon( the yellow donut with white cream which is a lemon sour cream cake flavor). The Chilli & buttered(blue and yellow) was a blueberry sweet corn with blue brown buttered glaze and tasted ok but the blueberry pieces baked into the donut gave it a weird texture. The adventure boy(white character donut black & white chocolate choc chip + cream cheese flavor) was kind of bland and a little underwhelming. The magic boy( yellow character donut maple bacon pancake flavored) had a very light maple flavor just tasted more like frosting on a mochi donut. The Gum queen( pink character donut which was bubblegum flavored) wasn't bad but after two or three bites it tasted like pepto bismol. Finally the A.I bestie( blue character donut that is tropical dreamsicle flavor) was a little too artificial tasting for me. Overall it's still a pretty good spot and the boba is good, this cycle was just a wash for me. Also keep in mind that there is not a lot of parking so you may need to park a little further out.

    Strawberry mochi donut

    Hate to say it, but I found Omg Squee overrated! Pros: good location near ABP and a bunch of other stuff in East Austin. Also, lots of gluten free stuff! Cons: very small. No interior seating and limited seating out front. There is a shared outdoor space with a bike shop with picnic tables where you can sit. Also, parking is very limited, and street parking there is confusing. In general, the donut was very dense. The soft serve was good. Glad to have checked it out finally since it was on my list, but I most likely will not be coming back.

    Matcha blueberry mochi donut
    Emily E.

    It's very exciting to have a spot with Asian inspired flavors in sweet treat forms such as matcha blueberry mochi donuts and ube soft serve w/ red bean stuffed taiyaki. However, the overall experience left me with unfulfilled anticipation. I've had their macarons at an event before, and found them delicious and definitely to be the star feature. Great bite and gentle chew with lovely fillings that weren't too sweet. However, from my in-person experience, their namesake soft serve was melty and bland compared to their names. The fruity pebbles were the only thing that brought flavor to the cereal milk flavored soft serve - otherwise, it just tasted like a light vanilla. We also found the taiyaki to be dry and more of a instagram photo app rather than an enjoyable indulgence. The mochi donut, while very, very cute!, was way too sweet. Like, tooth pain sweet. It clearly had real blueberries in it which is a lovely addition and had a great glutinous chew. I think it would have been very enjoyable if not for the sugar green coating. Lastly, their milk tea seems to be on the complete opposite spectrum of sweetness. It was ordered as is, but the milk tasted like watered down skim, and I didn't pick up any of the tea flavoring. The boba had a decent chew, but didn't taste like they were in a syrup soak. Honestly, probably the least enjoyable bubble tea I've had in Austin. As for where to to sit, they do have a decent amount of booths in the front patio and picnic benches outside without too much shade. This is fine now, but when the summer season hits, I could see it being uncomfortable. If you go, definitely do the macarons.

    Come for the mochi donuts! I grabbed the snickerdoodle, almost too cute to bite into, but let's be real, it didn't last long. The calamansi limeade leaned a little sweet at first, but as the ice melted, the tangy kick really came through. And if you really want to go all in, add the taiyaki ice cream swirl (miso caramel & banana). Yep, total sugar explosion, in the best way!

It was around 2:20 and they close a 3 pm so it wasn't like we were coming in at 5 minutes before closing. When we left, my daughter even said that girl was mean. If you don't like people then maybe find a job where you aren't face to face with customers. Austin certainly has changed. I've been here for over 25 years. I don't know if it's now an East Austin thing to be snooty and treat people rudely, but we went to Lou's Barton Springs last week with our dog and it was completely different experience. They were welcoming and the employees were all super friendly and nice. My daughter and I enjoyed our experience there and never again will we step into Paperboy East and be treated that way. I'd like better experiences for my kid that was born and raised in here Austin and don't want to subject her to places where we will be treated badly. BTW The right thing to have done is smile, say "good afternoon, I'm sorry but we are at full capacity. Thank you for coming I and please try us another time." It's really not hard. It's called human decency.

Our daughter used to live a few minutes from the Lamar location, but we've also been to the OG Manor Road location (as we did today). I've yet to try something I didn't like, but the favorite is Bird Bird Bacon. The biscuit is all you could ask for - flaky, buttery, a bit of salt - and if you can't eat it for a little while, it's still good (not all biscuits age well - some are only good as they come out of the oven). The "bird" in this case is the egg, over medium so it doesn't run all over the place, but not dry like a hard boiled egg. The generous stack of bacon is smoky but not overly so. All together, it's an amazing sandwich. If you're hungrier, I suggest the Queen Beak or Theodore. Check the www site for details and click on the Story link too. The chicken is crunchy and fried perfectly. For me, it's a lot to eat, but I have indulged on occasion. Finally, you need to try the Dough Doughs. They're biscuit balls fried up like donuts, about 3xthe size of a donut hole and covered with cinnamon sugar. Absolutely amazing. (I've tried to replicate these at home between visits, but mine are not as good.) Go. Enjoy!!

According to Mable, my server, Maaribu is a combination of the word Marfa (Texas town that has the Prada store) and Malibu. The brand is often described as combining Marfa's creative spirit, Malibu's laid back lifestyle, and clean Scandinavian design. The shop portion of Maaribu is beautifully styled, featuring furniture, décor, books, and gifts that have a modern flare. All the items are easy to peruse and get drawn in. The use of color is playful and engaging. Maaribu's key highlight is its café and bakery. The in house café has an assortment of coffee, wellness beverages, and dedicated gluten free baked goods. I bought a Rose honey latte, which was divine along with a multi-layer pastry. Mable said customers enjoy the quality and flavor of the pastries...scones, muffins, cookies, brownies, and egg bites are frequent favorites. Importantly, the café is reported to be fully gluten free, which makes it a standout destination for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities, without sacrificing taste or variety.
