I was just passing by and I'm so glad I saw their beautiful glass case. They are the best macaroons in New York. A true taste of France! The Strawberry one was my favorite.

Of all the macaron sellers in New York City, this spot has the biggest array of flavors. They've got the classics like salted caramel and black currant, but also some funky flavors like rose-lychee!
Tea For Me PleaseMay 5, 2013
The seating area was small and a little crowded but comfortable. Their tea menu was small but I loved that they noted which estates and regions each tea was from. Can't forget the macarons! Read more

Every flavor of macaron has been so amazing! I love this place, so glad I found it. The coffee is also excellent and a good value for the large size.

Forget about Laduree. Too sweet. La Maison du Macaron has the best French Macarons in NYC AND....BEST ECLAIRS EVER!!! COFFEE AND PISTACHIO ARE TO DIE FOR ☺️
Mel DogFebruary 13, 2013
Come here instead of Laduree (theirs are frozen and sent from France) for a fresh and delicate plethora of macarons. My personal favorites are passion fruit and cassis!

One of my favorites in NYC. Best breakfast pastry and coffee, splendid macarons, best flavor, wonderful staff and service!

For me the measure of a macaron shop lies in its pistachio and I would argue that Maison's is better than Lauduree's - their filling is so fresh and flavorful.

Cassis macaron($2.75) Their signature color is purple so their bag is purple. Even their pen to sign your receipt is purple.

I can't even ray macaroons due to allergies, but worth stopping there just for the excellent croissants and sugar brioches.

I'd rather have you visit Laduree for the macarons. But please please get the mocaccino and almond croissant from here. Everyone loves them.

Came here for the coffee boost - did not disappoint 👌 Beautiful macaron display too! Only negative: no wifi 😔
Andrea PlaskoFebruary 16, 2015
Delicious macarons, cute seating area in the back, and located on the west side....dreams do come true!

Macaron costs $2.50/ea. Tried the pistachio & fleur de sel. Expensive but trust me its worth it! I gobbled down 4 pieces in 10 mins! Its that good :)

I love this french bakery! Fresh croissants every morning, also delicious macarons!

when in season, Rose Lychee is just the bomb-diggity-licious. doesn't hurt that its cute little pink-shell is spiked with edible yellow stars

This Chelsea pastry shop offers over 50 flavors of mouthwatering macaroons, from traditional flavors to the less familiar, such as champagne apricot. Hilary Rhoda loves to stop in for a treat.

$20 for a beautiful box of 8 macarons ($2.50 per macaron). Definitely try the pistachio or cassis.

Try the delicate cassis macaron, two almond-based meringues encasing a luscious cream filling that’s brightened with tart cassis. It’s one of our #100best dishes and drinks of 2011. Read more

Best macaroon in the city. I've tried more than 10 flavors and they are all so so so good.
lauren shockeyJanuary 2, 2013
The croissants (plain, almond, ham and cheese) are better than the macarons. Some of the best in the city!
marylou mendozaFebruary 6, 2011
Pistachio is the best! Haven't tried the caramel coz they ran out of it. I love the place. This place is a heaven for people like me with sweet tooth!!!! :)

Great selection of macaroons but most importantly the best chocolate almond croissants- they come in mini size too!

Their mini chocolate croissants are so good.

My fave macaron joint by far- inventive and traditional flavors for all tastes

No WiFi, but their cafe is a nice place to chill and have some quiet time.

I'm not typically a fruity girl but they recommended the mango and raspberry macaronss and im sooo glad I took their advice! Delicious and tangy!

Solid macarons. Nice sitting ambiance with a high tea atmosphere
Leslie TFebruary 18, 2012
Great macarons in the downtown area! So many varieties!! Cassis or anything with gold leaf sprinkled on it :)
Li ShaFebruary 11, 2013
Had the rose lychee,Tahitian vanilla, and pistachio. All were amazing with buttercream filling. Not to sweet. Rose lychee is my new favorite flavor!

Clean and quiet place.
Sarah DeSJuly 27, 2013
There are couches and tables to sit down at in the rear of the shop. Great spot!

Very good Macaroons worth the trip but it's a little pricey.
NetsirkNovember 19, 2016
They have a variety of flavors compared to basic places that you can't get. Casis is delish!
Glenda McKinneyDecember 29, 2010
The macarons are amazingly good--not like a macaroon at all. Wonderful filled cookies with intense flavors, they make great little gifts.
RussellJune 14, 2019
Buy one of each they are all amazing
Eric RichmondSeptember 3, 2014
They meticulously arrange your macarons in the package for aesthetics. A lost art.
Christine ChouDecember 28, 2012
Best macarons! Tried Ladureé and still like Maison du Macaron more. Way better!
selinaNovember 11, 2010

Coffee is amazing, wish they had better lids, can't help it but spill out my coffee each time. But coffee is sooo good!
Jen SimonMay 24, 2011
Macarons are great, yeah, fine. But you just haven't lived until you've had the almond croissant. Even better with their excellent lattes.
Anusha RaoJanuary 3, 2015
Lychee macaron..... heavenly. Don't miss it.
Gulsin HarmanSeptember 29, 2013
if your first introduction to the art of macaron was by pierre herme, you may be a little disappointed
René CáceresFebruary 9, 2015
Amazing Macarons, kind of expensive but worth it.
MargaretAugust 19, 2013
Try the raspberry and the caramel one!!Best macaroons!
Roger RMay 29, 2017
The almond croissant and chocolate almond croissants are superb...amazing.
Nat HarwardFebruary 14, 2013
The Kamalaya Milk Chocolate was off the chain -- cookies 'n' cream at its finest.
