    #Cyclists and #Runners of every size and shape, make this your pre-/post-endeavor a place. Tiny-but-MIGHTY is how their cakes & coffee deliver. Do not underestimate what Olga Lee delivers from this convenient location. Hard to believe this much flavor comes from such a small place. Enjoy the tasty memory as you climb that last hill or end that final mile. You deserve this spot.

    I'm not one for sweets, but I'll always have room for these cupcakes! My wife and I walked inside because she wanted cupcakes and very quickly after talking with Olga I also wanted one. Olga was fantastic and so easy to talk with. She was super helpful in deciding which one to get after we asked her what her favorites were. I'm so happy that this location is super close to my apartment because I'll be coming back as often as I can! Thank you so much Olga for being as sweet and helpful as you are!

    Even though the cupcakes have gotten more pricey (I mean, what hasn't these days) I've loved Polkdadots since my college days! I'm super picky when it comes to cakes/cupcakes because I can't stand sickly sweet frosting- Polkdadots makes excellent cupcakes that aren't super sweet if that's not your thing either! I love their triple chocolate and check out their other flavors as well which change by the day!

    I'm in town visiting my friend for the weekend. She knows I love cupcakes so did some research and found Polkadots. We got a variety of cupcakes to have this evening after dinner. Every one of the cupcakes had moist, flavorful cake. The frosting had a silky smooth texture. While a bit pricey, these cupcakes did not disappont. Will be back!

    Polkadots really makes my favorite cupcake where I can eat the buttercream without scraping it off as I normally do with all other cupcakes because of the sweetness. The cupcake itself is moist and fluffy and not too sweet. I'm not a fan of the dense cakes. I have 2 favorites: strawberry shortcake which is a vanilla cake with strawberry buttercream and strawberry champagne which is also a vanilla cake with champagne buttercream and strawberry mousse filling. The strawberry champagne isn't available as a daily flavor so call amd check with the shop if you plan on just stopping in. I could eat one every day if my body doesn't gain weight.

    BLACK BOTTOM! I don't do too many chocolate cakes/cupcakes, but the black bottom cupcake here is DELICIOUS!! Not overly sweet, extremely moist with a nice cream cheese icing to bring everything together. I hate those icings where it tastes like nothing but sugar, but every icing here is just the perfect sweetness for me, light, and fluffy. Sadly the cupcakes here can be quite costly, but definitely something worth to indulge yourself in. They also make custom cakes/cupcakes, and their look book offers some amazing designs from a huge variety of themes from the baker.

    Disappointing! I was so excited to check out this place. But I left deflated. We had the strawberry and the chocolate. The strawberry was definitely better and had a really uplifting taste. It was definitely the mark of homemade batter. But the chocolate wasn't very good. The cake was mushy mashy and the frosting was waxy and filmy. Hmmm. I don't think it's supposed to taste that way. Besides the cupcakes, I have to say that this bakery could benefit from a new display case. Right now, all the cupcakes are housed in a clear plastic shelf display that oozes with smudge prints and frosting smears. It's not just that it looks dirty. It's also a problem when you have to squint around through all the muck to see the cupcake you're about to eat. Just lose your appetite? It's a small place so I'm sure they do what they can. Upon walking in the deck furniture is really cute. The rest just left me claustrophobic.

    I'm a cupcake fiend. I love them... but am very picky. We were at Toy Joy and I happened to notice the stellar reviews for Polkadots and was so excited! Could something as amazing as Delish be this close to home?! Is it possible?! The twins and I venture in and get some cupcakes, napkins, and head back outside to enjoy what we truly hoped would be wonderful, moist, creamy frosted, melt in your mouth deliciousness that is only granted to the chosen few who can truly make a good cupcake. We were left brokenhearted. The cake was dry, the frosting less than memorable and we were so disheartened. I usually would give a place two tries before writing that the food was bad, but they had three chances with our three cupcakes, each being a total fail. We won't be back.

    While we were in Austin we went to 3 different places for cupcakes and this one by far was my favorite! There was something about the cupcakes here that felt that they were made with care and that they weren't "cookie-cutter" cupcakes that you sometimes get with places that have more foot traffic. We tried to swing by and grab some for our flight home - but alas they were closed. I guess we will see you next time I'm in Austin!

    The kid was crazy about this cupcake.

    I spotted this place from Cabo Bob's a couple of months ago and finally made it in. It's teenie tiny inside. The porch is neat, also small, and the furniture is kid sized for the most part. We were there late, so there were four choices left. The girl working recommended the chocolate chip cookie dough. Soooo good. The cake tastes like yellow cake, with this light, whipped, delicious chocolate icing on top. The cookie dough is at the bottom. Super good cupcake. A tad pricey, $3.50 and it's not huge, but even splitting it satisfied my sweet tooth.

    My super sweet friend sent me cupcakes from here as a gift! But instead of surprising me with them, their delivery person texted me on their way, made me walk all the way down from my apartment during class, AND made me walk to the passenger window of her car to accept them. Really rude. She had the apartment number, the entrance was open, and there was guest parking right infront of the building. Didn't get to be much of a surprise. Cupcakes look great, though!

    I came here to get some cupcakes for my partners birthday! It's such a cute little shop near UT campus, the parking situation was not that great though so beware (there's like two spots to park). I love cupcakes and these are just the perfect amount of sweet so that it's not overwhelming. The frosting is sooo good. I recommend the strawberry cupcake!

    I got two dozen cupcakes recently for a friend's birthday and had a great experience. The cupcakes were absolutely delicious and very aesthetically pleasing. It was easy to just walk in and get an assortment of cupcakes and there was no need to call ahead or put in a particular order (unless you want something specific). Their daily offerings are online and easy to access. I didn't see a lot and only parked on the street, but I didn't have trouble finding a spot! They packed my order in nice clear-top boxes (pictured). Would definitely get cupcakes here again!
