I don't eat many sweets (anymore) but when my wife and son surprised me with some Sweet Meg's cupcakes for my birthday, how could I say no? Twice! Their cakes are fresh, delightful to look at and I believe are even better than Maxie B's. They don't have that "hurt your teeth" crunch of sugar, yet they live up to their sweet namesake. They have great specials and you can order whatever you like ahead of time. Rarely a line and a delightful place to stop for tea, coffee and a nice sweet treat! read more

If you know, you know..just in case you don't.. let me help you! Due to nut allergies and warning posted, I opted of trying any goodies, but bestie enjoyed Strawberry cake. She said it was very good and moist. The slice was huge. Nice atmosphere. I give it 4 stars only because I personally did not sample anything. read more

Delicious strawberry shortcake. I think it is seasonal around spring - summer so get it while it's available. I ordered a 6inch cake for a birthday with two days notice. It was waiting perfectly done and nicely decorated. The shop was clean and the service was kind. I will go back read more

I did not shop in the store; however it is absolutely adorable and smells delicious, but special ordered cookies for a baby shower. Her online ordering and quick response was spot on! We exchanged a few emails to iron out the details and decided upon these beauties I have in the photos!! They were delicious and i received so many compliments on the taste as well. I have to admit that I picked up two dozen assorted cookies at the shop when I picked up my order! Good thing I did .......I must have said I got these at "Sweet Meg's" a dozen times. read more

If you have a sweet tooth, this place will do the job. Very inviting and friendly upon walking into the shop. There are two small sitting chairs but this is not a place for you to sit down and enjoy your treats. They have a menu that appears to change with what flavors they bake that day. I had the vanilla almond cake and my little one had the vanilla cupcake. The cake was very moist and soft. I'm not really a frosting girl so I took about half of the frosting off but the cake was really good. My little one enjoyed the vanilla cupcake, took all the frosting off too lol. In any capacity, great place to grab a quick sweet treat. read more

I've been going to Meg's since the pandemic and always pleased with the cupcakes and service . A week ago I found myself having guests for dinner and needed a dessert . I called at the last minute for a pound cake to serve with peaches . They were able to accommodate my last minute request and the cake was perfect. I had never had the pound cake so took a chance and was glad. The price was reasonable and great service! Glad to support this local business. read more

the moment you open the door the aroma challenges your salivary glands. I bought the RED VELVET cupcake. cake was perfectly moist and flavored. The cream cheese frosting had the perfect balance of sweetness. Looking for to the next visit. read more

Delicious cupcakes that are NOT too cake-y or sweet. They're are also not pretentious and they make wonderful double chocolate cupcakes. I just wish they were open longer but I understand. When you walk in it smells amazing in their and it makes you feel like a kid again when you eat their food. Support this small business! read more

We used her before the pandemic . I'm not sure what happened since they reopened but the quality of the cupcakes and counter Goods are marketably poorer. We bought cupcakes for our Christmas party and they were dry. I would have done better at Fresh Mart or Whole Foods . Do yourself a favor and just order them from either of those places they'll be cheaper and a better quality read more

Sweet Meg's has done all of my kids birthday cakes, graduation and father day cakes for the past 8 years and they always deliver. Ordering is simple by emailing them a picture of what you want and done. I've been to all the bakeries in town and always go back to sweet Meg's. Thank you for making all our family occasions special. read more

I noticed this place on my visit to New Garden Bagels a while back but it was closed then . So today on my visit to the bagel shop I also stopped by this place which is right beside. Such a Cute little place . Decor was Beautiful . There wasnt a lot of cake selection but they did have the basic varieties like Carrot , Pumpkin, Red Velvet, Mint chocolate & Vanilla cakes . They do have quite a selection of Cupcakes and cookies though. We got a slice of Carrot cake and Pumpkin cake . Pumpkin cake wasnt overly sweet and texture was Perfect . Carrot Cake was a bit sweet to me but my husband loved it . Both cakes had the same Cream cheese frosting . Prices are comparitively Low to other desert places around . Young lady at the counter was super friendly . I would definitely go back to try their other sweets. read more

Great little place to pick you up a sweet treat. They have a few different varieties of cakes to purchase by the slice, a few varieties of cupcakes and fresh baked cookies along with a number of other baked goods on display. They have some neat little seating arrangements if you want to kick back and have your cake there. I tried the Pink Lemonade Cake and it was outstanding, the cake itself was so light and fluffy and not dry at all, had a great lemon flavor and the super rich lemony icing with the not so sweet cake was a great balance. 2 thumbs up on the Pink Lemonade. read more

Hey, hey! Not so bad. I popped in on a whim because I was craving sugar. The establishment was very clean and nicely decorated. I was greeted promptly and I asked, "what is good?" The young lady gave me several suggestions and I ended up getting a chocolate chip cookie, a magic bar, and a oatmeal stuffed cookie. The chocolate chunk cookie was very good. The outer bit had a little crunch to it and the middle was nice and soft with HUGE chucks of chocolate; pretty tasty. The magic bar was by far the best I had had in a long time. Perfect amount of chocolate and coconut; delicious. The stuffed oatmeal cookie sandwich thing was amazing. Everything about it. The prices were fair as well. I'll be back. read more

Best cake in Greensboro.. Cake is always fresh and moist. If you haven't tried them you you need to and once you try them you won't buy cake from any where else.. Just a tip try the coconut cake, it will melt in your mouth! read more

Cute place, good customer service, good pastries, they cookies and cakes are great, I love it.

This is a very nice bakery that specializes in cakes and cupcakes. I would say that it is one of the better places in town to find cupcakes, since they have quite an assortment ranging from Kahlua and vanilla. The prices for each is also reasonable as well, as they cost about $2.50 each. Everything they make is well made and delicious. I can tell that the owners are passionate about what they are doing. For the most part the service is very good, however sometimes the staff mixes items up. For instance, I once ordered a Kahlua cupcake and instead received a chocolate one. Another time I came in, I received the wrong amount of change as well. However overall, this is a great location, and I highly recommend visiting for most of your cake needs! read more

Great selection of cakes, cupcakes and cookies. Good location and the decor is perfect for a bakery!! Service is poor-good. They have a lot of turn over and most employees are young/inexperienced. read more

We had a great first visit to Sweet Meg's! Not only is there a great selection to choose from, the people here are so kind and helpful. We grabbed a slice of honeybun cake and a cookie dough cupcake. The honey bun cake was really fresh and delicious. The cake part was light and fluffy like a honey bun. The cookie dough cupcake was sweet and tasty. Super cute decor, delicious pastries and great service. Awesome little find! read more

Came here twice. I saw the cheesecake bars and really wanted to try them. None of the two times did they have them. They actually did not have anything In that case on the very right when you enter. Nor did they have the pecan or the honey bun cakes I saw on their website/on the pictures. I got a Reese's cupcake. It was inexpensive: about $2.50. The frosting was a bit grainy and tasted like honey roasted peanuts. read more

My only complaint is that they close too early! Friendly service and delicious sweets. I highly prefer it over the trendy bakeries.

Awesome bakery! I have dropped in for a treat, custom cupcake order on short notice and custom cookie orders. I've never had any problems...outside of what flavor to pick! There are usually the traditional flavors and also fun, unique ones like cotton candy. Very friendly staff and cute atmosphere will keep us coming back also. read more

Finally made it to this bakery. Great location, and really nice bakery. Cakes all look delicious. I tried the Birthday Cake, which was a white cake and Buttercream frosting, it was okay. Also got a pink lemonade cupcake, it was amazing. Both were very moist and the taste was homemade. Would love to go back and try some different flavors. The staff was great also, and helped with any questions. read more

Sweet Meg's - Pink Lemonade Cupcake - Desserts Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

Cute little bakery. Always wanted to try this place but every time we stopped by they were already closed. Finally, got to try one of their cupcakes and I ended up having the run for about 2 days. I'm afraid to come back here again. Maybe, once I work up my courage to cone back I will then change my mind about the stars. read more

Awesome cakes with pieces of fresh strawberries and buttercream icing. Customer Service is awesome! I ordered the cake first thing Wednesday and picked it up today! This is the place, they answer the phones,they are always polite and NO waiting or placing your order a week or two weeks ahead of time before you even know you need a cake. Awesome! Can not recommend enough! Try them and see for yourself. The next time a bakery tells you to order a cake they need a weeks notice or two weeks notice Call Meg at Sweet Megs. read more

Everything I've tried is insanely good, but in the fall, try the Sweet Potato Cupcakes. I'm not a huge sweet potato fan, but these things are amazing. Marshmallow frosting and perfect amount of spices. The bakery itself is also very cute and always clean. The staff are always polite and helpful. read more

Sweet Meg's is the best bakery in town. She is a hidden jewel! My favorite flavor is strawberry cake! She has made several cakes for my family! If I am super busy I can simply Facebook her and she takes it from there! The bakery has a fresh and inviting feel to it!!! Meg is very personable and the staff is super friendly! read more

As an update to my previous review, I ordered hummingbird cupcakes from here since hummingbird is my absolute favorite. It's not included in their typical selection, but they do make it on request. It was one of the most amazing hummingbird cupcakes I've had. I recently tried hummingbird at Maxie B's, and it did not taste right at all. Sweet Megs does not disappoint! read more

Fantastic cupcakes that truly have a that desired homemade taste. None of the overly greasy frosting found in most of the new cupcake shops. The cake itself was perfectly moist and supported the decadent frosting perfectly. I was fortunate to actually meet Meg and she was a complete pleasure to talk to. I'm definitely adding Sweet Megs to my guilty pleasure snack stops. read more

Great cakes, but there is not a time i call to order one that they are not too busy to make a cake. Sooo.. call 2 weeks ahead of time, or otherwise they are booked. I find their customer service really lacking this way, as i called today (wed) for a cake for monday and they are booked all weekend and closed sun and mon.. so, heads up read more

Sweet Megs is awesome!! I've purchased cupcakes, whoopie pies, cream horns, cakes and cookies. I've never been disappointed. So moist and tasty delicious!! The dark chocolate cupcake and the red velvet cupcake is my favorite! Go visit Meg's! read more

Sweet Meg's is AWESOME!!!!! She has cupcakes and cakes by the slice, and she does special orders. The cake is just right - just a bit moist and very flavorful and the icing is perfect - not too sweet and always fresh. The flavors make it difficult to choose: bananas foster, Nutella (frosting), chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting, "honey bun" (spice cake with cinnamon and walnut), pound cake, strawberry shortcake, red velvet.... Meg has a baking schedule, so you know when your favorites will be there! Meg's is closed on Sunday and Monday, which helps resist temptation. read more

Sweet Meg's Bakery is "da bomb. com", as my teenage niece would say!!! I had a pretty fierce chocolate chip cookie craving and was on a mission to find "THE ONE" that would satisfy it. The kind of craving I had was one that not just any ole chocolate chip cookie would be able to extinguish. This craving could only be tamed by the most insanely delicious, decadent, moist, chewy, ooey-gooey, crazy-good chocolate chip cookie that could possibly be in existence. You know the one I'm talking about if you have ever had "THAT KIND" of cookie craving before. This is the kind of craving that keeps you awake at night thinking about the yummy morsel of deliciousness. The kind that will not stop running through your head until you get it. The only thing worse than this kind of craving is the fact that you've not been able to find the cookie good enough to satisfy it. Well, my friends, my search is officially finally over, I found it right here!!! I literally had searched everywhere between two counties (Alamance & Guilford) looking for the kind of cookie I've described here and this is the ONLY place I found it, plus it gets even better..... Sweet Meg's cookie was as big as the palm of my hand! Holy Mother of Cookie Heaven!! My son wanted a chocolate chip cookie "sandwich" (two cookies with cream in the middle), but the store was out. But no worries!! The sweet gentleman that helped me asked a very nice young lady (who I assumed was their baker) if she would be able to run take two cookies and pipe them full of some butter cream filling and she was quick to say very kindly, "Oh Sure, No problem!!" Seriously, everything in the store was just beautiful! Not only was the decor lovely and remarkably clean but all of the cakes, pies, cookies, cupcakes and cheesecakes were "picture perfect" and smelled delicious! The staff was extremely helpful, cheerful and appeared to me as genuinely kind, caring people who presented to me as eager to please and truly happy I was there. Prices were reasonable in my opinion and from what I saw personally during this visit, Sweet Meg's Bakery has the most talented cake decorator I've ever seen. Their cakes look like something I've only seen on the TV show "Cake Boss"!!!! Amazing talent here! I will start ordering all of my family's birthday cakes from Sweet Meg's Bakery. They totally blew me away on my very first visit. I just wish their store was closer to where I live, but it's likely a good thing it's not.... or else I'd probably be as big as a house before long! Sweet Meg's Bakery is pretty epic, you will not be disappointed!! read more

I have to say this is a very cute bakery with amazing staff too. They have a wide selection of cakes, cupcakes, cookies and other desserts to choose from. So far I have had the chocolate cookie which was really good and their red velvet cupcake. The red velvet cupcake was a disappointment to me because it was very very small for the price and there was nothing spectacular about the cupcake. The red velvet was your typical red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting. The cake itself was not too oily and not too dry, it was actually quite moist. So while the red velvet cupcake alone won't bring me back the reasonably priced cookies will! read more

Kinda shocked at these high reviews. This place is average at best. The people are nice but the cakes taste like they are made from box mixes. They are ehh... Just ok. I don't like paying for things that I can make myself at home. I want cake that taste like somebody's grandmammy or great auntie put they're foot into! This is not that kinda spot. read more

Went to several bakeries looking for a cake for my wife's 45th birthday. very other bakery had frozen cakes and fake icing. They let me try a sample of the cake & icing, loved it. Ordered the cake, had to make a change and they accommodated. Was ready on time and my wife (who is very picky) loved the cake. Would get anything they had, everything that we have tried since is great read more

I have been to every bakery in Greensboro and bought many cakes, cupcakes, cookies from the all and been served desserts from all of them at other friends events. .every time I go somewhere else out of convenience I always wish I had gone to Sweet Meg's. The best prices. .freshest. .best flavor bakery in town. .don't even bother going anywhere else. .Meg's is the best! read more

This place was really tasty. I got the pink lemonade cake. It was moist and fresh. I hope to try more of their sweets soon.

I first had Sweet Meg's cupcakes at work last week when a coworker brought a box in. Wow! This place has perfected frosting and then some. None of that whipped or greasy stuff here. My favorite was the Key Lime Pie cupcake! I've now tried some of their bars as well and the lemon bar is my fave! Yummo! read more

Sweet Meg's is THE BEST BAKERY in Greensboro.. The store is in the shopping center on New Garden Road with Office Depot and Lowe's grocery store. I have tried all the other(there are not to many)bakeries in town but none beat this bakery. Her variety of cakes and cupcakes are the tastiest I have ever had. read more

All the cupcakes we've had from there have been great, so we decided to order our anniversary cake from there. They were super-helpful about in making sure the cake would end up as exactly what we wanted, and it was absolutely perfect. Lemon with raspberry filling - a lot of bakeries don't seem to do filling well, but this was perfectly balanced and delicious in addition to being visually gorgeous. read more
