Madeline GullettAugust 21, 2014Cupcakes! They are all amazing! They even have one vegan option each day. I had the vegan red velvet and it didn't even taste vegan it was that delicious!
Best cupcakes in Chicago. Red velvet cupcake, black and white, and marshmallow are my top three. Follow them on social media, they give out free cupcakes some days.
DARK chocolate(w/ sprinkles), chai spice, cranberry orange (in the fall), salted caramel (in the fall) and pumpkin : ). All so so good. (Especially the dark chocolate...super moist and chocolatety)
SSeptember 24, 2013Lemon, german chocolate and chocolate marshmellow were disappointing. LOVED the red velvet, best so far. Banana, cinnamon good so far. Love the daily specials! Overall very fresh.
SAADOctober 7, 2015Are you kidding me?? They have cupcake ATM :p you can get cupcake anytime but you gotta bring your credit card with you and your good to go
Get the sprinkles app to see the daily flavors... No need to wait in line if your favorite flavor isn't available. Plus it will show you the featured flavors and when they will arrive
Sonja SoutherlandJune 19, 2013Absolutely Delish! The cupcakes are moist and have a proper proportion of icing to cupcake. The staff was very friendly! They also sale their cupcake mix....yummy!!
M Aldoss ♏May 20, 2015A Must Try !!!! Yummy delicious Cupcake .. All the Flavors are good. Highly Recommended.
They have such good cupcakes and a lot of different flavors! Definitely coming here again
Kristina N.April 13, 2013So-so: If you're in for a Red Velvet wonder head over to Sweet Miss Givings located in the French market @ Ogilvie. Tho the seasonal varieties & aroma of warm sugar are irresistible. Round 2? Why not.
Joey PMarch 14, 2011Everyday they have a secret word that will get you a free cupcake if whispered to the staff. Usually limited to 1st 100 or so. Follow them on Twitter to find out the secret whisper word!
Ashley ParkSeptember 15, 2015GET THE SALTY CARAMEL OR BANANA CUPCAKES THEYRE MY FAVORITE! (NOTE: They dont have everything EVERY day tho)
The most amazing cupcakes! Check twitter for secret words to get free cupcakes and download Sprinkles app for your phone so you always know what flavors are made each day!
If you can't find a favorite cupcake here, you don't have a pulse! Red Velvet for what it's worth!
Kayla InserraFebruary 14, 2012Be the first 50 customers to whisper the secret word into one of the employees ears and receive a free cupcake of your choice! Hint: Follow @Sprinkles on Twitter for the daily secret word!
Redeye ChicagoAugust 3, 2014There's a cupcake vending machine out front to satisfy your late-night sugar cravings after the storefront has closed. Read more
Jonathan FerreraSeptember 5, 2016They have very good cupcakes. Despite the lines they get, there's only enough seats for four or five people inside.
There is always something new to try - Love the rotating flavors. You can check the website to find out which one is currently in the bakery! Also, don't forget to whisper the word of the day!
Time Out ChicagoAugust 2, 2014There’s no opening wide for these things—these are cupcakes that, for once, are of manageable size. That may convince you to eat more than one, which you probably can. Read more
Dan CooperDecember 15, 2013Don't plan on being able to enjoy your cupcake(s) in the shop; it is small, with very limited seating. If you can grab one, though, go for it.
Hila MilaDecember 8, 2014They have only regular size vegan cupcake. It is so god that you won't want a small one :)
Ellen DeGeneresSeptember 9, 2011Nothing makes a great day better than a Sprinkles Vegan Red Velvet cupcake. It's also great if you're having a bad day. What I'm saying is: you should have one today.
Helen LeeMay 10, 2015Anything is great and so tasty. I love the red velvet cupcake. Coffee is only $2.
Carol PiusJune 15, 2014Coconut and lime coconut are where it's at!

Yes it's trendy, yes it's a tourist trap, yes the Cupcake ATM is kitschy...but damn these are good cupcakes.
- They now offer mini cupcakes! Great snacks and great for sampling.
eryn oDecember 27, 2012Eat a cupcake any time you want. Because they have a CUPCAKE ATM. The future is here, and it's delicious.
Iman MaherJuly 26, 2014The cupcake machine took our money and didn't give us our cupcake!!! We bought 3!
Autumn SmithJune 8, 2012Follow them on Twitter @sprinkleschicag for their daily keyword for a free cupcake. They give away about 50 a day!
Karthika VarmaMarch 18, 2014If you don't want to wait in line and you're craving a quick cupcake, use the cupcake ATM!
- eryn oDecember 27, 2012Not only do they have gluten-free red velvet cupcakes-- they're the best GF cupcakes I've ever had.

Kat Medina NinoMarch 29, 2015A Must Stop For Grab & Go #Cupcakes! #Vegan #GlutenFree & #Vegetarian Options Too!
Jake SmithOctober 29, 2012If you are waiting in line, try to help keep the door closed. This insures the freshness of the cupcakes housed inside.
We don't ever want to see this, especially with an ATM full of cupcakes, AND it's cold out here?!
- Vegan Red Velvet cupcakes are the best vegan dessert I've ever had- by far
Adrienne GawlowskiAugust 6, 2010My favorite cupcake is vanilla milk chocolate. The vanilla cake is so moist with big vanilla flavor topped with milk chocolate frosting.- They give away 25-100 free cupcakes a day if you become a fan on facebook and cheek their page for secret word of the day.
