Fiinally got my hands on the classic Banana Pudding and the Chocolate Hazelnut Banana Pudding.
My personal favorite was surprisingly the Banana Pudding, it tasted so heavenly!
The chocolate hazelnut was actually Nutella - it was very enjoyable too.
Both the puddings had actual banana slices layered with wafers and pudding.
Definitely a must try! 🤤
Loved the packaging too in cute tiny tubs and well thought of them to send a packet of ice cubes along with it so that the puddings stay cold. Delivery was on time too. 🙌
Always heard and seen how people react and look forward to the famous banana puddings from this bakery, missed their offer few weeks ago when it was up for 5aed only!
Ordered today and it was y.u.m.m.y! The serving portion as I thought it would be and tasted fresh and we'll balanced between the pudding, cake and banana's ... Amazing stuff and very enjoyable.
Defo must try for people with a sweet tooth as myself 😁
I ordered banana pudding and it was so so good as i have heard and its positive review.. so yummy! ❤
The fact that the Magnolia Bakery serve it by putting ice bag in it.. and proper hygienically packed to deliver is amazing
Yet i have ordered Small cup... and its of very small portion for that price... but yeah i enjoyed my dessert
Thanx
Must try their banana budding and cheesecake.
The banana pudding was excellent and tasted so good 😊 ,highly recommended:)
We always ordered banana pudding!! They have loads of cakes to taste as well! And all I can say is you will never go wrong having a delivery food from magnolia 💕
The only bad things about Banana Budding is being addictive. You will not stop eating and you will not stop yourself from reordering.
Best cafe for cakes in town.
Love ❤️ Devils chocolate cake always a must for birthdays!!!Red velvet lovers should try the red velvet and banana pudding is also a must if u love banana flavour!
Latte was average/strong coffee served in an average cup saucer.
Thank you to Emmanuel for your amazing service this morning at Galleria, especially given the extras we asked for. Lovely ambience. The mixed berry pancakes were delicious as well as the lemonade😋

Good choice for breakfast and desserts. Ambiance is good and relaxing. I will highly recommend banana pudding. Chocolate cup cake and organic green tea is also good.
The banana pudding from Magnolia has been on my crave list for months and when I finally got to try it, it did not disappoint! The creamy goodness punctuated with the biscuit crunch was absolute bliss. We also ordered a carrot cake cupcake which was really good but paled in comparison to the banana pudding! Definitely going back there just for the pudding!
This place is not the friendliest if you are worried about your waistline or your budget. But. BUT. Their cakes are probably the only cakes where when they say it’s iced with BUTTERCREAM, it’s freaking buttercream. Hands down, my ultimate favourite place of indulgence. I have not tried a product from their desserts that I honestly disliked!
I love the cupcakes here - they are really yummy and right to the flavours. The red velvet is my favourite and a must try!
They are also known for their famous Banana Pudding - which I found average. If you like bananas and pudding then this is it for you.
The Chocolate Pudding Parfait is pretty yum as well.
Overall a cute place for dessert or quick coffee. Pricing could be slightly better though. (Missed taking more pics!)

This scrumptious #lazyweekend #breakfast was the best I’ve had in while. 🍳🥞 Popped into @magnoliabakeryuae today and was pleasantly surprised!
.
This was the full pan breakfast which came with choice of #eggs, roasted truffle #mushroom, baked potatoes, grilled #halloumi, cherry tomato with granary bread and #avacado smash as I opted for a #veggie version (as opposed to the beef bacon) .
.
The #Frenchtoast is light and fluffy with not too sweet buttery brioche bread with cinnamon and mixed berries. Just delicious! 😋
.
.
Best thing about this breakfast @thegalleriauae was that it’s available all day and on the @entertainerauh app with a great 241 deal on a la carte items! 😉
.
.
Defo a great start to the day! Only thing was wish they could deliver! #weekend #inabudhabi 🇦🇪
I visited this place Just to try their famous Banana Pudding that’s been all over instagram for a while now. You get a pretty good amount for a good price and it was really reallyy good. It was also extremely filling.
I also tried their German Chocolate Cupcake and it was delicious. Their hot chocolate however, could be improved a lot.
Overall I liked the experience and their interiors are also really adorable and nice. I m really looking forward to coming back here to try their other cakes and cupcakes.
I have been an ardent Magnolia lover since 2014, Big fan of their red velvet cake and the banana pudding! Lovely ambience and the portions i must say are quiet generous!
Love this place for their very famous Banana Pudding! My boys love the red velvet cupcakes and the plain vanilla cupcakes! A calm and quite place to hang out with buddies!
Have only tried their most popular "banana pudding" and really liked the flavour and texture of the pudding. Would definitely like to try their desserts especially the cupcakes during my next visit to this place.
I have had the German chocolate and red velvet cake from here and I must say that compared to both the German chocolate cake was definitely tastier and the coconut caramel cream was too yummy! The German chocolate cake is definitely a must try if you are ok with coconut flavour
Absolutely one of my top go to places for my sweet tooth craving. Love their banana pudding and cupcakes! Really friendly staff and good atmosphere. Decor is classy and cute, perfect for a girls day out and some catching up over coffee and cake 🤗
OMG!!! The banana pudding is amazing!!!just can not have enough. You can taste each ingredient and its not too sweet. I really enjoyed it. And also ordered for seconds 😄
Like the place , mainly for its cuteness , looks like a little cafe in New York! They changed their menu recently , I really wish they still had their pastas on the menu ! However, love their mind blowing chicken pie ! Sandwiches are a class apart too ! Love the freshness of their breads! And the cakes, do I even need to say anything about them ? It’s way too yummy ! Love the red velvet and even the simplest of the simple cup cake is so delicious!
We had ordered carrot cake for bday celebration at our office and we all loved their carrot cake. It's full of nuts. Taste is very delicious. Very rich. Must try
I have tasted banana pudding, carrot cake, and chocolate cake....omg it was amazing...and worth the money....it is one of the best places in abudhabi for cakes...
but sorry to say that dnt get fooled with the skillet brownie...it was just a bangle sized, while other restaurants serves better....
Excellent pastries... love their pumpkin pie and coconut cupcake ... simply the best! The ambience is peaceful and simple . Loved the experience
Definitely going back to Magnolia! Have only tried the desserts and I love them all. The famous banana pudding is a must try- super creamy and delicious, absolute favourite!!
Samarth Shetty
Very polite and friendly staff.... And their banana pudding is so yummylicious..... Loved being here.... The coffee hit just the right spots and I enjoyed the ambience and song selection... Will be back for sure!!!!
Polite and accommodating staffs who is really going to get back to you. Homely taste vanilla sponge cake. Surely going back to try some more desserts
We went to try the famous Banana Pudding. Along with that we also tried the Vanilla Cake with Butter Cream Frosting and Milk Cake.
The Banana Pudding is good but I have had better. Yes, I have had better. In Pakistan, we have a sweet dish called fruit cake truffle. One of my uncles (who is an amazing cook himself) makes it better than you guys. His dish is finger licking good. Literally finger licking good.
Milk cake was very fresh and soft and very delicious.
Well for the Vanilla Cake with Butter Cream Frosting. It was excellent and yummilicious. It was very fresh and the sponge inside was so soft that I was left wanting for more. This is by far the best cake I have eaten in Abu Dhabi.
I ordered a cake with chocolate and vanilla flavor, and it was really good! Even though the cake was small but inside of it was really good. I will definitely try some other best seller.
This place is a sugary heaven. I've only tried their pastries so I can only comment on that. I love their Banana pudding. You cannot leave this place without getting a banana pudding. I have a friend who works there and tells me its always freshly made so we can rest assure. Another all time favorite is the red velvet cheese cake. Not too sweet and velvety taste. Pure awesomeness in a small package. Last is the carrot cake. You can never go wrong with these choices.
Went for an important meeting inside Galleria mall and found out this awesome place with perfect ambience. The place has a variety of desserts which are so tasty and delicious. Had their special ice cream and chocolate cake. It was amazingly delicious.
Ordered a cake for my birthday on 16th September from this shop by my husband, staff service was remarkable, very helpful, even the shift in charge was very much accommodating and given 5* service , next day I received my cake on said time, it was fabulous, we will visit again here, thnx for the beautiful birthday cake,

An awesome place for the cakes.
Have you tried their banana custard pudding? It is just THE BEST. nothing like it in Abu Dhabi. We have tries their cakes and are equally good. Only if the prices were a little competitive and menu a bit more diverse, this would be our favourite dessert place!!
Follow me for more reviews and on instagram @ thesteakfather for food blogs, photography and reviews.
Pretty awesome cake. Nice vanilla whipped cream. I've only tried the Red Velvet cake for my nephew's monthly birthday and so far it did not dissapoint. Creaminess is there, not too sweet and fair enough portion.
I just can’t get enough of Magnolia’s chic interiors and delicious meals that is why this is my go-to place for celebration and chillaxing.
As much I wanted to pair my sweets with a cup of coffee, I cannot help but order the choco drink as well 😅 so tempting!
It was my first time to try the Banana Pudding and no wonder this has been their bestseller! Comfort food!
We shared stories, capped the day and ordered banana pudding for officemates to enjoy the following day.
Their cheesecake are really good and the delivery was fast. It is worth trying it. My personal favorite is the pecan one. The prices are reasonable and the portions are perfect. Maybe it is a bit too sweet but that is a personal preference
The place is amazing. The smell is so nice and feels cozy & comfy. The banana budding is awesome but presentation is not gd. Chocolate swirl cheese cakes is gd
Visited Magnolia at galleria mall recently, with a friend. Had vanilla cup cakes, banana loaf's, some cheese cake , lotus cupcakes! Banana pudding is super !!!!!!Yikes that's a lot! lol. We loved them all♥ Had some coffee too to wash it all down. The palce is sooooo cute♥ the staff very quick and helpful. Didnt like the location too much, its kinda on the inside of the mall. But other than that great choice of sweet treats and coffee! The quality of the desserts is exquisite♥
banana pudding is one of best in tastes and must try when you visit this restaurant, it can be lil crowded in afternoon, service and staff is amazing
I love the ambience of the restaurant and the friendly staff. The most popular banana pudding is something to look forward to whenever you visit this Bakery :) Service is fast.
Amazing banana pudding and a wide selection. The pudding tasted delicious and i would come again for it. It was a bit crowded thought but i guess thats to be expected.
Some of best deserts I had in Abu Dhabi.My kid loved it .Banana pudding superb .hot seller
best one was the blueberry desert
Totally great yummy..will be going again soon
I don't usually write reviews for cakes but I'd make one exception for Magnolia Bakery's flourless cake. It's small, round and has a rich chocolatey taste. I would recommend it for people who try to cut down their carb intake.
Went with Sharon Sunil on a Saturday... Became fairly crowded after noon.. We ordered the infamous banana pudding, carrot cupcake, beef bacon and caramelized onion pie and hot chocolate... The banana pudding was amazing and out of the world. For 17 bucks got a reasonable small size pudding but it was perfect for my tastebuds... The carrot cupcake had a cream cheese frosting that had a bit too much saltiness in it.. My friend didn't like it and had only the cake which was moist and very yummy.. Just like how a carrot cake should be.. I didn't mind the saltiness in the cream cheese because I felt it kinda compensated for the other sweet stuff...overall I enjoyed the carrot cupcake.. However, we wished they have more variety of cake slices as shown in the menu.. The hot chocolate was normal and the pie was very good... All in all, good ambience, yummy high quality food.. Their pudding and cakes are a must must try...
The best one is their famous banana pudding...quality and taste at its best.... small but cute outlet with wonderful customer service... must try..
Finally had to try them. The coffee was so good cakes and coconuts macaroons was so yummy.
The place was nice and cozy we loved it. Helpful staff and location as well
I tried lotus cheesecake + banana pudding .
The lotus cheesecake was really yummy 👌🏻👅. And the banana pudding was also good.
I will definitely come back and try the other desserts.
Nice place!! Quick and tasty food. I tried the croissant which was fresh and light. Egg Florentine was delicious as well. Can't change much but would appreciate if service is done in the dinning area as well. See you soon next time, keep up the quality always. Cheers!!!!

I’ve been wanting to try magnolia bakery banana pudding for a while now .. so the other day after my toddler was done with his play at caboodle in the galleria mall , I thought to eat it there .. but unluckily toddler slept as too tired after his play .. so had to go with a takeaway ..absolutely loved how exquisite the bakery looks .. the staff were very enthusiastic and friendly .. actually felt more like I was taking time to choose lol ... so I ordered banana pudding , hummingbird cupcake and a slice of classic chocolate cake with buttercream frosting .. I thought I wouldn’t have any money left for cab to go home lol but pleasantly surprised at how reasonable and affordable the place is !! Total money’s worth!! Even though my husband disagrees,maybe coz it’s going from his pocket lol anyway so banana pudding finished really fast .. absolutely yum!! Loved the cheese frosting in my cupcake and the chocolate cake was completely moist .. loved all three and will definitely visit the bakery again for more !!!
I went to this place once and tried their Mac&Cheese, and God I felt like I'm eating a really good thing that I can't describe, maybe that was because I was famished but it was really good, and u can actually know that the type of cheese they use is danish because of the quality. I know alot about cheese because I'm a cheese lover, and I knew when I had the firat bite that they use one of the best types of cheese's that are sold in UAE. I didn't try their deserts yet, but I will soon.
Extremely rude and unprofessional staff, when its crowded and you're not in the mood to be treated badly, comeback later, however, best sweets in town, if you're found of their cupcakes, heads up the cake is not as good, specially when you get the big size
If someone is around The Galleria Mall then you have to dig into the Banana Pudding of Magnolia... It’s pure pleasure treat for oneself... Had German Peacan Chocolate Cake and it was too much for 2 to finish it... I will rate 5 on 5 for Taste, Quantity, Quality, Price (little overpriced) and Service... If you are sweet lover then do visit Magnolia once...
We visited this bakery first time, very pleasant atmosphere and lovely interior.We ordered two main dishes spaghetti Bolognese and chicken cob salad, spaghetti portion was way to small as for main dish and not enough of actual sauce bolognese, basically quite dry. Cob salad was fine, but not impressive. As I saw people were buying a lot of sweets, so next time will give a try for cakes and cupcakes, all of them looked lovely.
Love the place! It's charming with a very cute interior design concept and the cupcakes are simply fantastic. However, a lot of cake is only for decoration which confused me a bit at first.
first time here dinning with my dad and we both loved it. Such a cute place and such sweet staff. My dad ordered an omelet that i stole a bite from and it was spectacular. I ordered the yogurt and granola and it wasn’t my favorite thing that i’ve ever eaten. The yogurt tasted a bit like labneh which threw me off but other than that it was good. The cupcakes and cakes are adorable however and you can tell they were decorated with passion.
Home of the best banana pudding and ice box cake in the capital. Sweet tooth lady like me will keep on coming back. The ambiance is nostalgic with sweet scent of baked goodies around the corner. Staffs are friendly. 🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽 emojis for you. 🥧🥧🍰🍮🍪
Eating desserts here is always a great way to leave The Galeria with a big smile on your face! 😁😁😁 Tried the banana pudding and snickers ice box! Satisfaction guaranteed! 😁😁😁👍👍👍
Still on a Abu Dhabi day, we craved something sweet after lunch and made our way to Magnolia in the Galleria.
I must say first and foremost, it was rather confusing getting there even with a GPS as there is a lot of construction. So please pay attention.
What a gorgeous little bakery it is though.
Everything is made daily and you can even watch them decorate the cakes orders.
We chose the carrot cake cupcake - I am a sucker for carrot cake in any shape or form. And I can honestly say I judge people based on their carrot cake and particularly their cream cheese frosting.
This cream cheese had me licking everything it touched. It was SO smooth. Absolutely delish!!
We also had the white chocolate macadamia cheesecake and Magnolia Bakery Famous Bananna Pudding.
All of them were really nice.
Coffees were a bit disappointing, over extracting made it bitter.
We do need to come back to try some other goodies.
If you are craving for some sugar and sweets ....I think you just arrived to the right place... In abu dhabi it's my favorite place to take out or dine in ... I love their cakes and nothing else
My only negativety is that place is so small and it's not comfortable to sit sometimes ....but compared to the crowd that comes to Galleria mall it's fine ...
Hope you open another branch in Yas mall
The cupcakes get a lot of love here, but I must say that their brownie bars are to die for. Also, the banana pudding. This is the type of indulgence you have to have very sparingly, but it is amazing. I wish you could order delivery through zomato, but only delivery through deliveroo seems to work. Either way, they are high up on my list of places to go to when I'm in need of a sugar fix. Love.
just tried 3 kind of cakes..
peanut butter cake is a vry delicious one ..
chocolate swirl cheesecake is as good as the peanut butter..
vanilla cake is ruined by the frosting which was so much sweet so much butter so much sugar if they use a normal creme instead of this sugar frosting it would be better i think.
Good place, nice setting but the staff is not the most friendly or customer oriented.
However the 4 is solely based on their food quality.
Ordered for their famous banana pudding and blueberry cheesecake.
It was our friend's birthday and we bought our cake present in Magnolia's Bakery. We chose to have chocolate cake and carrot cake. Though the cake is just plain and simple but the very core of it rocked us. It was delectably good in our palate. I love their carrot cake. I don't know if they opted to keep their cakes simple but it would ne nice if they can make their cake more visually appetizing.
Everyone speaks about the banana pudding in magnolia bakery, but frankly I have eaten many other deserts from this places except that, since I hate bananas. Anyways the cakes and cupcakes are always delicious and fresh. I like the ambience and interiors of the place. The staff are friendly too, but sometimes their service is a bit slow. I would definitely recommend this place for a quite desert and coffee craving.
Absolutely mind blowing banana pudding . In love with their signature dish - banana pudding . I'm coming back again for some more of that lovely pudding .

To start with very friendly and welcoming staff. We ordered devils cake and chocolate cake, though chocolate cake blew my mind away the devils cake don't quite leave a mark, it had a bitter taste to the buttercream ( devils cake is chocolate cake filled and covered with mocha buttercream), like there was a little bit of coffee powder that hasn't dissolved well with the other ingredients.
Do try out their lemonade too....refreshing.
If you love your cakes creamy, soft, buttery, flavoured & delightful than this is the place to come and try out all those cakes!
They have a beautiful variety of cakes, tarts, pies, breakfast items etc.
A must try - chocolate cake, banana pudding and the waffles.. A total treat :)
Banana pudding is heaven sent and you just can't have one cupcake, Gotta try it all. The place is cozy, sleek and chick. The smell of the place brings smile on the face
I bought a slice of white chocolate, macadia cheesecake and oh my god, it was the best cheesecake I've had. I will not be able to stop raving about the flavor. The crust was the best part as it was rich in butter. This is a small bakery but had an affable atmosphere. I look forward to visiting again to try the other flavors.
To be honest, we haven't been there but just ordered a delivery. We were not disappointed at all, their Banana pudding was heavenly delicious.
Will I recommend it? Yes, everyone should try it
A v. proper example of an Americanized bake shop. It has this homely look and sense of coziness, along with a huge assortment of desserts! Generous portions and a friendly atmosphere.
I absolutely love their cakes! Their banana pudding is also worth coming back for. My husband loves their coffee too! The staff were also very accommodating.
So me and a friend are doing this thing where we try random restaurants and see what the food is like. Because well, we love food! Focusing more on cafes because coffee is our go-to!😄 we had the fettucino pasta at magnolia which was to die for!! It was amazing. We couldnt get enough. We also tried the lotus cheesecake and the infamous banana pudding which did not dissapoint. The cafe mocha also had a homey feel to it. Kinda like a warm hug.🙄☕
The staff were super sweet and helpful as well.
I highly recommend Magnolia .Hazel Fernandes

Magnolia Bakery was voted by Zomato for Best Desserts in Abu Dhabi in 2015 - flash forward to two years later, and its reputation remains largely unchallenged. With a team as sweet and inviting as their red velvet cheesecake, Magnolia Bakery is a quaint little place with a homely and cosy atmosphere. Beverages on their menu are reasonably priced, and we started with a Mocha each which was warm and chocolatey. Fettuccine Milano was one of the best pasta dishes I've had in a while with creamy white sauce, bits of grilled chicken and tangy sun-dried tomatoes, alongside two slices of crisp and flavourful garlic bread. Pulled Beef Biscuit was quite messy to eat and average in taste, but the biscuit parts were really fresh and crumbly. Despite being stuffed after the coffees and mains, we couldn't resist trying the Lotus Cheesecake, one of their best sellers at the moment, which was a real guilty pleasure with its decadent 'dulce de leche' topping and thick base of sweet Lotus biscuit. Also took their signature Banana Pudding for takeaway and it was delicious. A real paradise for those with a sweet tooth!

Amazing food. Chocolate cakes divine. Everything tastes so good, it's addictive.
One problem- has only one branch. Please open more branches, people deserve to indulge in those cakes and pudding and all. All those heavenly treats.
Great place for a coffee and a sweet bite!!! You sure may leave with a sugar high!! So much temptation, banana pudding, carrot cake, cupcakes, chocolate peanut butter ice.
Love the decore that takes me back in time... the black and white tile floors... so vintage. Mixed with the flavors of sugar and coffee in the air... as they are baking and getting the muffins dressed. Such a welcoming place. Nice atmosphere
Did not have a clue they served food.... last time I went I did thought though it was funny they had salt and pepper on all tables. But did not find any menús around. Guess I always been between breakfast and lunch time. Or between lunch and dinner. Will try to give it a go any time soon.
Best Banana pudding EVER... AND German Chocolate cake that everytime am depressed it cheers me up.. an all time winner
*Will I go back again!! Sure
Loveee the vanilla cupcakes !! They are so good melts in your mouth with the perfect amount of sweetness. The bakery is very cute in itself. Pastel colour theme and a cozy sitting area. It is always full when we go so we do take away. Have to try other items still. They make savory items as well. One of my friend swears by their carrot cake. I bet no one can have just one.
Cozy place and a nice ambiance with lavish desserts
I personally love this place
There staff was very Friendly
Excellent food quality prices were not so high
I love their cheese cake it was super delicious must try
And their chicken sandwich was also good
Recommended place
Great for quick bites
Every little thing they bake is to die for,
Just entering that place and smelling them goods is a free release of endorphins,
My top favorite would be the Banana Pudding,
I could simply survive on them.
Love it and it always reminds me of New York
Visited Magnolia bakery for some coffee during Ramadan. They are open during the days, behind curtains, which makes it a great spot for food/coffees if around that area.
Tried the banana pudding, which i most say was extremely good and the carrot cake, that was good but not as impressive as the pudding. Coffee was very good.
Service at the counter was friendly.
I love the atmosphere at the cozy cafe.... plus the cakes are fantastic. My favorites are red velvet y banana cake.... delicious. The sitting are is small, so on Fridays is difficult to find a table. Better go during the week

The banana pudding is to die for! They also have a super delicious banana cream pie and key lime pie. This place will fatten you up in no time, it's very dangerous for people who want to lose weight.
Delicious. I'm especially taken by the salted caramel cookies. Never seen them anywhere else. Of course the cupcakes are a delight, as well.
Magnolia bakery desserts are out of this world. If you have tried the banana pudding then you are messing out. There is a new flavor now which is peanut butter and banana pudding which is simply delicious!!! Must try. Also I recommend the lemonade it's very cold and refreshing.
Great Place and Food combination makes it a must visit in Galleria... Their Pulled Beef Biscuit is out of the world and the Hummingbird Cupcake is extremely soft and delicious...
Downside : The staff needs to be more pleasant and welcoming
My lovely place . You should go and try it , they have a big selection but my favorite is banana pudding . Also they have a great coffee and juices . Just wait8ng t9 try magnolia ice cream 😍 because in dxb it is available.
I have tried the chocolate and banana pudding which is one of my favourite desserts. You can select your choice from a number of different cupcakes and desserts which are all looks so good.
Magnolia has its own magic to make sad people happy😁 Blueberry Jamboree makes the world go round... That Banana Cake though 😲😲 OMGosh!! To die for! And THE OUTSTANDING Banana Pudding couldn't get enough of it. The Peanut Butter Banana Pudding was a good try-- I'll stick to the classics anyway.. At times I just wanna run and race to Magnolia after work afraid to runout their yummyness 💯👍 Hopefully branches in Yas Mall or in Saadiyat Island soon be opened..
The best banana pudding in town!
It's light and delicious and not sugary. Magnolia's pasteries are fresh and have divine tastes. They use Illy coffee so their coffee is one of the best brew
Good
We ordered n home delivery.
Home delivery can b only done through "Deliveroo" only.
Prompt delivery with excellent updates on our order
Taste: Excellent
We ordered their famous Banana pudding + Cup cakes
You should definitely try their banana 🍌 pudding best of Abudhabi
Will visit them once for another detailed review

Came here with my wife and we had the carrot cake. It wasn't the best cake I have ever had but it wasn't a bad experience at all. Will visit again and try something else next time because there is a massive variety.
If you will come across The Galleria Mall, in the middle of all the luxury brand stores you will see a very cute café with a touch of baby blue and white decors. They have huge varieties of cakes, cupcakes and coffees. But my all time favorite is the Banana Pudding!😋
Last time we went here, they launched the Chocolate Banana Pudding so we tried both to see the difference. They were both good but nothing beats the original flavor. 🙂
Oh and by the way, don't forget a cup of take away in case you still want more while enjoying your netflix. 😁
Absolutely favourite place for any of my sweet cravings. Two things genuinely caught my attention here are: The banana pudding and the red velvet cake. On different birthday occasions we have ordered the Red Velvet Cake and not even once have they disappointed and consistency is always appreciated. The Banana pudding is just perfect, not too sweet not too less sweet either. It the right amount to satisfy anyones sweet tooth. There are 3 different sizes which i like a lot, so there isn't any wastage. Overall, Magnolia Bakery is the place for anyone who is craving dessert.

I've tried their ever popular banana pudding and red velvet cupcakes before, so I decided to come and try their breakfast menus.. their eggs florentine was filling, yummy but I thought it could've been more cheesy.. that's a personal note.. coffee was so great with the banana pudding which we had after the meal :) magnolia french toast is also delicious :)
Magnolia bakery
Love the interiors or decoration that was so attractive i tried their most popular choclate banana pudding that was so delicious must say good place and good service
The brownies were soft chewy and flavorful.. the coconut bits were toasted to perfection
I loved the black coffee. not burnt... it had its own class... no after taste... smelled robust
The best sweet place, it has always been my favorite but I used to only eat chocolate sweets but lately i tried the famous banana pudding which tasted amazing.
After all what I have heard, I decided to try their banana pudding.. It was very good .. the cupcakes were the standard taste which is similar to different cupcakes in different places but some are unique.. had a cafe latte & it was average.
Their deserts are actually heavenly. Especially the banana pudding. Their lemonade is unique as well. However, their coffee is just average. Too bad with such a great mood and deserts!
They have the best cakes and pies all over UAE their best is the pecan pie 😍❤️ try it you will not be sorry I will order my birthday cake from them this week ❤️❤️
For dessert there is only one place to head is magnolia bakery .
The banana poudding is a must something every should taste it.
The wild berries is very tasty but for me banana poudding come first.
It is one of the best recommendation ever .

Stopped by to fulfil my craving for something sweet, and to check out this much talked about place. I wasn't disappointed on both fronts. I absolutely loved my purchases! Heavenly, decadent, deliciousness! ❤❤❤ I ordered a Date Cake that was oh so moist and dense and rich! Divine! While my husband went for an Apple Crumble which was equally amazing! 👌👌👌 I can't find these two in the current menu, but
I'm pretty sure their other offerings will be just as, if not more, delicious! And the Americano I had with my cake was real good too.
I would recommend this place again and again.
This place like a dream for a person who likes the sweets, I saw it the first time in Dubai Jumeirah . I like all design , staff and more than this the taste of cakes it's very delicious .
I only heard of this place in movies. But when I arrived in AD, my colleagues took me here because they know I have a sweet tooth. Made me try the Banana pudding and oh man that hit the spot right on. When I moved to Reem and had that sweet craving, I would go up there and have me some pudding.

Taking a step into a New York style high end bakery is what you will feel when you visit Magnolia Bakery. Great decor & merchandising. One of the best carrot cakes I have ever tried. Will definitely return
Had a small cup of the most heavenly chocolate banana pudding. Woaaaaaaah! Definitely not for sharing. Actually buy a large cup eat more and share a bit I guess. Thank you to the staff for the chocolate banana pudding recommendation. Love the original banana pudding but this was awesome on a whole new level. The blend of banana chocolate cake and pudding....
I loved their chocolate Swirl Cheesecake. Good service and beautiful decor and interiors. We tried the Banana Pudding their best seller. And it tasted good but too less the quantity. Was really looking forward to try their cupcake custard but wasn't available that day.

I kinda find this mall useless but went specifically to try Magnolia with Mumsie to have a light dinner as we weren't particularly hungry. I had initially wanted to order pasta but the baked Eggs & Goat Cheese meal caught my eye and after I found out they serve all day breakfast, my decision was made. I wasn't sure about their servings so I decided to order an Avocado toast as well. Good thing I did as the Egg/Cheese combo was on the small portion side. I had never had baked egg or goat cheese but I was immediately in love with it...one thing I found annoying is they said it came with salad, but it was literally 3 small Rocca leaves drizzled with an oil vinaigrette. I wish they would put what ingredients came on the avocado toast because I was not expecting pickled onions at all so I immediately took those out but it was actually delicious. Mom ordered the Fettuccine Milano which was creamy and came with delicious roasted tomatoes, but man oh man they were way too generous with the olive oil...after a few bites, it feels a bit gross going down. We were too stuffed to try out the baked good but maybe next time as I would definitely give it a try again. Our server Ryan was so attentive and just looked like one of those people that loves their job...we were so happy with his service. Magnolia - think about downtown or corniche Abu Dhabi please
A bit over rated and over priced in my opinions. The cupcakes have always been fresh, every time we've ordered them but I would not bother with the cake slices. The banana is also one of their signatures..a bit to sweet for my tastebuds but still yummy.
I've been longing for banana pudding and this place was recommended to me. I've been back 3 times in 2 weeks. The charm of this place and its decadent desserts are perfect any time.
Yummy. Yummy. Yummy. As always. When I'm low, and need the chocolate rush, its always cupcakes that make my day! And Magnolia's can never disappoint. Visited the Abu Dhabi branch for the first time; just as good! My favs (being the choco fan) - Chocolate and Red Velvet cupcakes!

Every time I visit this mall and i pass by this place i wanted to try it .finaly it comes the day that i could find the time to sneak and try that resto .
Anyway the place is comfy and nice to have a chit chat and enjoy their menu.
I tried the banana pudding after i wrote most of the ppl are suggesting to go for it , the first thing i asked the Cashir is if i can i try it and they were sweet and they offer us to try it before we decided ,it really has a flavor that tickles all the senses of taste in the moth it really took me back to the time when my mum used to make something like that .
Although, its a small restaurant but they have self service its not good for lazy ppl . However the workers there are really welcoming and friendly.
I also like the ambience and the decor of the place its kinda cute and unique with this classic touch on the tables and the chairs which really got my eyes .
I suggest this place for breakfast lovers and people who really have sweet tooth and like to try some different type of bakery .

This quaint little dessert heaven is exactly what the sweet-toothed doctor ordered on a weekend. Love the ambiance, friendly staff and delicious desserts.
So finally tried the much hyped 'banana pudding' ... And it was all true :) the cupcakes are pretty great too. Well worth a drive to the mall just to try the pudding!
4.5 for the exceptionally delicious "banana pudding"...wow. I will try the chocolate cake next time. The black coffer was very good...too bad i live 30 mins away from this place.
Favorite cakes spots honestly, their red velvet with cream cheese is extraordinary. Everything about the bakery is so cute, seatings and food.

An anniversary cake was ordered by cousin from here and she said cakes here are just like the home baked cakes not too sweet and it's yum , well when I had their Devils chocolate cake I strongly agree to it.... Just like the Devils cake I bake at home so soft and perfect butter cream , even after two days the cake was soft and tasty. Magnolia bakery is in my Favourite cake bakery's list .... Will try their red velvet soon and update.
My first experience with magnolia was when we bought a carrot cake for our sisters bday, and I did have a chance to be there yesterday on my way out of the mall after attending a meeting.
Their carrot cakes are probably not anything like the usual creamy , cheesy or sugary dessert that you might find in every other restaurant.
It is got a unique taste which might not win everyones heart,but sure will win the heart of the people who are trying to keep a low sugar level in their diet.
We ordered a banana pudding , which was definitely delicious. Every spoon of it is was enjoyable , and I do guarantee that you will be wiping that plate of yours until it looks as good as new.
First time in here , but not first for my family.
But i wish if the service is a little bit better. And how come we go to them to order! They should come and take our orders.
Great for morning breakfasts .. So fresh and well baked. If you tried it once , it will trun into an addiction. Staff are really friendly and prices are fair enough.
Been to Magnolia Bakery several times either for breakfast, a cup cake or to buy a cake. The service was nice and the team there had good attitude. Breakfast options were nice, their cup cakes are always tasty and the red velvet cake was mouth watering.
I was delighted to learn that Magnolia existed when I arrived here, there being no branches in Europe and all. First on the hitlist was a red velvet cupcake. It was superb, everything I hoped for and more. The carrot cake was so delectable, incredibly filling, it was a meal in itself. A charming cafe lay out on Al Maryah Island, and with options for all. For cakes and coffees a must-visit. I'll be here for birthday cakes for the foreseeable.
Magnolia bakery is my FAVOURITE! This place is so unique. It's ambience is very inviting and their cakes, puddings and desserts are AMAZING. I often buy the magic cookie, honestly, it is the most delicious dessert I've tasted. Lots of people I know love the banana pudding, I've heard it is very good and I will probably try it next time I'm here.
Another advantage is that it is open for dine-in during Ramadan with a curtain covering all windows. This allows visitors to sit and enjoy their mouthwatering desserts without having to take away. I recommend this to anyone who has a sweet tooth. It's well with the visit.
ادمان الشيء يعني الحب الكثير .. و بصراحة انا مدمن هالمخبز .. عندهم البنانا بودينغ مش ممكن، جلساته و اجوائه و خدمته و سعره و مكانه .. هالمكان كل شيء فيه جميل
More than anything, the whole place was very inviting and gay (happy). Which it should be when you have cupcakes in mind for your afternoon tea. I wanted to say we wanted to have a break from too much walking and shopping, yet the mall is too small and we didnt do any shopping lol. I have yet to google the bakerys history, all i can say is that its from new york (shop title) and its famous for cupcakes and baked goodies. We had to try the red velvet cupcakes (with cream and with vanilla cream) plus a blueberry cheesecake. Sweets coupled with americano and cappuccino was a perfect afternoon treat. The cupcakes were good, could have been more moist and the cheesecake was fabulous except we wanted a thicker crust. The coffee well tasted and smelled like coffee lol. The wonderful staff also gave us extra sprinkles for the baby. My only complain was their cupcakes were too small for cavemen like me haha
everything is perfect, the food taste amazing... but the service I'm receiving in Magnolia Bakery The Galleria is just WOOOOOW. the only place I feel myself I'm served not because it's their job or they are afraid of the manager, NO they serve you because they love their job. I never saw any staff there unhappy always smiling and greeting you from heart. I have been in different restaurants and bakeries, there as well the service is good and sometimes perfect, but still can't be compared with Magnolia Bakery.
The tasty smell of baking the cakes in the shop will attract you the moment you step into it.
They have best carrot cake in the city and all other cakes we tried were simple amazing.
I tried once some pudding of banana and creame which was just like home made ones.
The smell of the place say it all, fresh baked cakes , variety of deserts

I have heard about their famous banana pudding for some time now and it's only now that I had the chance to actually visit. This bakery is located in a very upscale mall in Al Maryah Island, so this place is really not so much of a trend for people like me, haha. Well anyway, I was so excited to try their banana pudding because first of all, I love bananas! It doesn't really look that appetizing, but when you have your first taste, oh my, it was heavenly indeed! I ordered the large size. I actually kinda' regretted ordering the large bowl because this recipe, although very good, was kinda' sweet and you only really need a small serving to satisfy your appetite. The other one I ordered was the Red Velvet Cheesecake. I have not really tasted anything red velvet before so I don't know how I can describe it or where I can compare it to. But to cut this short, I honestly didn't enjoy eating it, it tastes somewhat odd for me. Well anyway, if it's worth anything, you definitely have to try their famous banana pudding!
Also, I ordered their Raspberry iced tea. And I'm discouraged that they have such a small glass. It's not enough for one person, knowing you have to flush all that sweetness from their sugary concoctions. They should have a larger glass, just a suggestion.
Absolutely love the banana pudding, can have it any day! We always bring the bigger box home. Other desserts are quite good and tempting too, including the cupcakes!
Definitely the best cakes in town. My husband and I head here every time we have a craving for something sweet. Their service and friendly, the variety absolutely mind boggling. Though we vow to try something new every time, one look at our favourites leave us drooling and opting for them over and over again. If you've never been, the Banana pudding, which is their signature dessert is a good place to start. Also, if you like bananas, one slice of their banana chocolate will have you coming back for more. The German chocolate cake is pretty heavy, but so worth the calories. I am also a fan of their lemon cake, the sponge of which is light and airy, and the frosty so creamy and delicious.
A real gem of a bakery...the ambience is perfect for a small cafe/ bakery...the banana pie is to die for...don't leave this place without eating it!
In my opinion, Magnolia has the best cakes and cupcakes in town. Every time we have visited we have enjoyed a delicious treat. My wife loves their Devil's Food cupcake and their brownie. Both are moist, rich, and full of chocolatey goodness. The mocha buttercream frosting on the cupcake is also perfect. The caramel pecan cheesecake is also a good choice with it not being as tooth-shatteringly sweet as some of the other options. Pair it with an Americano for a smooth combination. We have also ordered a speciality cake from the bakery and received not only a beautifully decorated cake that tasted amazing, but also wonderful customer service. So Magnolia, you're amazing. We love you.
Love the banana pudding, the chocolate browni n the cake and the cup cake... the one slight issue is that its a bit too sweet...it would be better if the sweetness got a bit milder.
Service staff are helpful but lack a happy smiling face.
I have ordered the famous Magnolia banana pudding that everyone was talking about and it was very delicious! It contained some pieces of bananas and some cake crumbs (highly recommend if you are trying the bakery for the first time). Their coffee was hot, freshly made and it was good. I tried also the chocolate swirl cheesecake, it was fine. I didn't really like the very hard crust of the chessecake, it was kind of a struggle to cut it.
Wow! Best Carrot cake I've ever had. Perfect amount of sweetness, layering of cream cheese and moisture. Plus, the slice served was HUGE. Also, the peanut butter toffee bar had a charm of its own.
Beautiful interiors and the cheerful staff gave this bakery a warm, pleasant vibe.
A must visit for all cake lovers.
Magnolia bakery has the loveliest cakes. Not a big fan of their other desserts i find them too sweet. But Love their cakes! Red Velvet with cream cheese is the must for any occassion. Creamy, sweet and everything nice!
I alwasy try to avoid walking past their shop when I am in Galleria Mall because I know that I will end up paying them a visit! Amazing selection of sweets. Irresistible red velvet cupcake and banana pudding! They also serve good coffee and excellent hot chocolate. Yumm!
Wanted to try this place because on my recent trip to New York heard a lot about this place. Tried their Banana pudding in NYC and it was crowded there anyways coming back to AUH their pudding is great. Tried their cheesecakes but not a fan of it.
The carrot cake!!
I understand addiction now!
Definitely a must try among the many other delectable treats.
I need to get back to finishing my carrot cake now
Anything about New York count me in !!! This place has some of the most amazing deserts if not the best !!! Great selections ...great taste and also good coffee ☺️ ....only reason I didn't give perfect score is because the seating they have can be a bit harsh on the bum after a while lol.
They have a good range of pastry options.. Been to this place few times before aswell.. Love their pastries.. The best one is their old style Banana Pudding... 👌🏻
There is nothing special about there hot drinks.
The rating I give is for and only for the gorgeous coconut macaroons and magic cookie bar's. Not 5 as the last cookie bar I got was a tad underdone so the inside was a bit runnier than what I had prior.
The macaroons are the best ive had. Chewy and soft in the middle with a slightly spiced coconut flavour. love it.
The Magic cookie bar is like the macaroon but with a choc chip cookie base and in a larger bar form. However, rather than a cookie its more like shortbread and when baked just right it is absolutely heavenly.
Other things i've tried are the devils choc cake, sugar cookies, peanut butter and snickers icebox pie, peanut butter chocolate bar and banana pudding. All of which are good but notthing in comparison to the above two. Personal preference I suppose but I couldn't recommend them more
Cheers MB!!!

I don't think I've tried something disapointing at magnolia's.
From their sugar cookies to the red velvet cheesecake and all the way to their german cake.
But you have to really have a sweet tooth, nothing is moderate. You go there to taste sugar in a cake.
But i like that
And they have a grilled chicken sandwich that is YUMMY. So flavorful
Need a smile? Magnolia will bring it to you. This place smells amazing, the cakes are really nice and moist, but I have to say that my favorite is the banana pudding. I could eat one a day...easily. I did get a decaf coffee here that was not the best, so just focus on what they are best at. Don't miss it.
A must have - banana pudding. Can never go wrong, not too sweet and tastes great. Loved the ambiance, staff is friendly and affordable... :)
I loved it! The cakes are so moist and delicious , the decor is cozy, the staff are friendly! It's a lovely place for a girly catch up and coffee after shopping! The carrot cake was outstanding.
Must try the Banana pudding! Really delicious. It can really remove the bad memories of the day just by eating this dessert.
Nice ambience plus the smell of the shop makes you want to go back to your grandmothers kitchen.
Try their promo every afternoon for a cheap price and avail of their pasta combo with drinks and sweet cupcake of the day.
Value for money is really worth it
Must try - pasta tricolore and banana pudding
I have only tried one thing here and it seems that's all I need.... Banana pudding OMG I'll take the drive there just for that amazing a must try on cheat days
Simply my favorite place on my cheat day! For
some reason I never go there for a snack, I have only tried their sweets. Up to now.. and everything I have ordered was so far much above average. Especially their banana pudding and red velvet cake. Simply irresistible, yummy!

Having visited the original Magnolia Bakery in its New York location we were very excited to see what the UAE branch at Galleria Mall had to offer. Upon arrival we were amazed to see that is is like a down-sized replica of the New York branch and features many of the most popular dishes from across the Atlantic.
We now find ourselves regularly popping in to purchase cakes, or more often than not the banana pudding for which Magnolia Bakery is famous - you really must try this stuff as it is absolutely delicious (and staff are more than happy to give you a free sample if you ask).
Whenever we visit the staff are always friendly and polite, and we love the location as it is generally quiet -so you can have a cup of coffee in peace. Whenever we visit we always end up coming home with more than we intended, as the cupcakes and other sweet treats are always so enticing - and we will literally buy anything that contains peanut butter.
It is also nice to see some of the promotions on offer such as a coffee and cookie for a bargain 12 AED - it is great offers like this that will keep people coming back for more!
Magnolia bakery, they have agreat atmosphere with amazing banan puding i tried some of their other stuff i dont really recall it wasnt bad but the banan puding is a while different story
Ohhh I love ur banana pudding. I can't stop eat it all over the day ams night I hope that everyone can try it and taste the meaning of love. Bravo
Coconut marshmallow is so good. A lot of coconut inside and fluffy. Will definitely come back for it. Very nice setting, friendly staff, and great location.
قررنا نفطر مرة بحلو فرحناله
كان نفسي اجرب فطيرة جوز البقان من صورها المعروضة
بس للاسف مكانتش موجودة
طلبنا البانانا بودينج اللي الكل بيشكر فيها كانت كويسة جدا بس انا عموما ماليش فيها اوي
دقتها مرة في مطعم مش متذكرة اسمه في فندق انانتارا
كان اوبن بوفيه في رمضان ، المهم كان من ضمن الحلو البانانا بودينج كانت الذ بكتيير وغنية عن اللي دقتها هنا بصراحة
انا عشقي كيكة الجزر وكانت هي خياري التاني بعد عدم وجود فطيرة جوز البقان
حلوة جدا وغنيه بالنكهات والمكسرات
وكريمة الزبد التوبنج كانت لذيذة
طلبت لاتيه مثلج ماحبيتهوش
المرارة فيه كانت زيادة اوي
تجربة جيدة وان شاءالله لينا تجربة معاه تاني في المستقبل
لفت نظري مؤخرا انهم بيبيعوا كتاب بكل اسرار وصفاتهم للحلويات وطريقة خبزها .. ناوية اشتريه ان شاءالله
تحديث : كل زيارة وتجربة لمجنوليا حاليا يتأكد ليا انه اسم وشكل مش اكتر لكن المضمون فعلا اقل اقل من اقل عادي والطعم اي ست بيت تعمل اطعم والذ منهم فعلا ماتخدوش بالشكل والمنظر والسمعة الزايدة .
If you've messed up and need to make it up to your special someone, Magnolia Bakery offers a plethora of options to keep that bond intact via their delectable baked goodies.
Located on level 2 of galleria mall, further down the information centre and diagonally across TUMI, Magnolia houses more than just desserts and serves breakfast, salads, sandwiches and pasta in addition to their hot & cold beverages and juices.
My sis loves their cupcakes which have a perfect base that is topped off with a dreamy frosting. I've also had their chocolate banana cake and carrot cake both of which were really good. The carrot cake is perfect blend of nuts, spice and sweetness finished with cream. The banana pudding here is really good and is a must try. Comprising of banana slices, vanilla cake wafers and creamy pudding, this is delight is simply heavenly.
Anyone with a sweet tooth will definitely appreciate this place. Their staff are very helpful and service has always been impeccable.
Banna pudding is sooooo yummy and all the other sweets are yummy especially the cheese cakes the price is fairly good. price is a little over but for the quality of tase its worth paying for
I swear I can't get enough of this place. It's an adorable tea house looking place with the friendliest staff. The omelettes and sadwiches are amazing. As for the cakes and desserts..... There's nothing to say.. try EVERYTHING!
Best banana pudding on earth !if your a fan of that then this is your place.If you are ready to try it out then take my word you wont stop !!simply amazing.The cakes were good as well.So much more left to try out from here
After having dinner in galleria mall we decided to try Magnolia bakery for sweet tooth.. The decor was beautiful..such a beautiful theme..and the red velvet cake was absolute lush! I just found the frosting a bit too butterish but it was really tasty :)
I absolutely love this bakery!
Last time I went I tried their Carrot Cupcake, Red Velvet Cupcake with Cream Cheese, Banana Pudding and Chocolate Chip Cookies with Sea Salt.
Both cupcakes were amazing, both the sponge and icing were perfect! However I found the icing to be too much compared to the sponge.
The pudding is amazing. The bakery is known for their banana pudding and it's obvious why this is so. It is a must try!
The cookies were good but I found that they tasted better when they were warmed up a bit so that the chocolate chips were slightly melted and gooey.
This place is a must if you're in Abu Dhabi!
Beautiful decor, and interesting set of deserts . Had the red velvet cheesecake and was blissful :D Was the perfect amount of sweet and was enough for two. Have to go back for more!
This place is one of the cutest go to place if you're a bit of a sweet tooth like me. I would argue that the prices are a wee bit higher than the usual rating, however, the hospitality and overall ambience really makes up for it. I've even had breakfast here and I was not disappointed with their little combos. Their pies and cookies are my absolute favourites and I hear that their famous banana pudding is to die for. Their red velvet cake was too sugary for my liking but it balanced off with my slightly bitter latte.
This one has me floored... to the point where I have only 2 words to describe this place.... banana pudding.... a minion has no idea what it's missing out on.
i have only been here twice but had become a fan since the first time i visited. i still remember it was a red velvet cheese cake. it was the best cake ever that i had tried. not too dense like other places and not too creamy as well. the second time was a macademia cheese cake . i hope i am getting the names right. i remember the taste it was realllyy good. i was soo tempted to try out the other varieties that my frnds had to escort me out of the bakery. lol. well today i tried the carrot cake and cheese cake. i must say i am not a fan if carrot cake so it was knly ok for me. but since cheese cake is something tht i really like , i was totally in love wit this variety from magnolia . not too sweet , not too dense and not too creamy. just the perfect combination. i would love to go back again n again n again until i m done trying all their flavours.
Great variety of desserts & good service. Do open more branches across Abu Dhabi. Do please change the registered shop timings - you close at 10pm not 11pm. Thanks
One of my favorite bakeries in town! The smell here is heavenly, and the staff are extremely friendly :)
The interior is what I enjoy the most, it gives the cozy feelings of town bakeries.
I always come back for the Banana pudding!
Amazing place for coffee and cake! Very chill, very cozy and very friendly. Their prices are fair and their cakes are made in heaven!!!
Especially their custard pudding!!! Glorious!!
On my way for banana pudding!!?.
So for the past couple of days I've been having a major craving for Red Velvet Cheesecake and what better place to fulfil this craving than Magnolia Bakery. So with no second thoughts I instantly ordered for a Red Velvet Cheesecake on being asked my preference, also along with that I added a Peanut Butter Icebox Pie. On a single bite of the Red Velvet Cheesecake, my taste buds did the happy dance.

I've been wanting to visit Galleria Mall at Al Maryah Island for a while now and finally managed to get myself there over the weekend, but I was there for a mission, a very important mission.
A little confession, I'm not so much of a dessert person, but when I crave for something, am worse than a pregnant woman, I NEED IT, I REALLY DO.
So for the past couple of days I've been having a major craving for Red Velvet Cheesecake and what better place to fulfil this craving than Magnolia Bakery.
So with no second thoughts I instantly ordered for a Red Velvet Cheesecake on being asked my preference, also along with that I added a Peanut Butter Icebox Pie.
On a single bite of the Red Velvet Cheesecake, my taste buds did the happy dance. The cheesecake was velvety and creamy, the cheese wasn't too sweet either, just the way I prefer my cheesecake. Also, the red velvet texture was very tender and almost melted in my mouth. The quantity was quite generous, but then again it's priced at AED 30, so it better be.
Moving on to the Peanut Butter Icebox Pie, this basically was Wafer crust layered with caramel, peanut butter and whipped cream, topped with Reeses peanut butter cups. I wasn't a huge fan of the wafer crust by itself, but it was very palatable, when I had it with the butter cups, however there were just a handful of butter cups on top, so it wasn't as delightful as I expected it to be. This again was priced at AED 30 and can easily be shared by two - three people. There was also an option of a Snickers Icebox Pie, which is something I might give a try on my next visit.
The interiors of Magnolia are very vintage and chic and is the perfect place for a girls hang-out.
There wasn't much interaction with the staff as such, but judging from the short conversation I had with the server, he seemed polite.
Also lastly for all those who don't know, Magnolia isn't limited to just desserts, they also serve Salads and Pasta, but I would still not recommend this to the calorie cautious folks, as you're sure to get tempted and call in for something that would do you no good ;)
Overall I would rate Magnolia a 3.5/5
This is my 2nd visit to this fancy cake shop. The best attractions is its pastel colour scheme and the wonderful vintage style display of the beautiful cakes.
We tried the chocolate banana cupcake, Snickers crumble pastry, chocolate pudding parfait and lemon vanilla bundt cake slices. Both the times the cakes I tried were dry and the icing was hard, very sweet and too heavy. The banana pudding is signature and one of the must tries here. The chocolate pudding parfait is lovely but one cup can serve two.
Nice place for an evening out with your girlfriends. The staff are really kind and friendly.
My all time favourite, visit this place for banana pudding, carrot cake, blueberry jambrose and black coffee.Never been disappointed, lately their menu has been expanded to pasta and salads too. Yet to try those.
If you haven't tried their banana pudding then you must! Addictive and super delicious. The place is cozy and the staff are always smiling and their service is excellent. Cakes are very heavy so is the frosting. Cookies also not that good but in general where do you find a place that opens at 7:00 a.m with energetic and welcoming staff here in Abu Dhabi? I recommend their breakfast too. I love Magnolia's Bakery vibes ✨
Always wanted to try their desserts. Got a chance last week. I should tell, its a good place to have desserts. They are the first place i have tried whose cream/whipped cream is smooth and light and tastes really good. We had the devils chocolate cupcake (really good, you should try this if you are a chocolate fan, they add little coffee in it also i feel), banana cream pie (really good as well, truly banana flavour with crushed buscuit base and cover and whipped cream on top), pistachio cheesecake (heavy and not good), flourless chocolate cake (strong egg flavour and heavy). You should visit this place, definitely try their desserts. But remember that the desserts are packed with sugar therefore order minimal.
Coffee is great, and banana pudding is delicious.
I think the Red velvet cheese cake is too heavy, i couldn't eat half of it.
The place is cozy and comfortable
Great coffee, tried theur turkey apple sandwich which is excellent and comes with a geneerous size of chips and salad.. their bana pudding ofcourse makes history everytime.. so is their carrot cake which we order everytimw we have a celebration. Excellent
This is the first time I've tried their breakfast. I usually go there for their famous banana pudding and other desserts. But surprisingly their breakfast was really good! I ordered the scrambled eggs with salmon that comes with a side of salad and small baguettes with cheese on them and also a latte. It was so delicious and the ambience was so cozy and calm and just right. The food kind of takes long to be served but other than that it was a great experiece. Going there again to try out their other meals for sure!
The place looks like a vintage patisserie shop in France. They decorate their desserts transparently as you can view it from your sweet. Very lush.
Banana puddingg is a piece of heaven on earth. It is really realllyyy goood!

Been working at The Galleria for the past week and I pass by this colourful place every 10 minutes and I just had to go in. Ordered the truffle cupcake, vanilla butter cupcake, chocolate butter cake and their famous banana pudding. The best out of the lot was the buttery and creamy chocolate cake. The truffle cupcake had this creamy inside with chocolate covering which was only good when the both came in contact. Banana pudding was however, a letdown. The interiors are beautiful. Yea thats it.
For me, breakfast is a big deal. Most of the time it makes or breaks my day haha! I planned on trying Magnolia's breakfast but to be honest was extremely hesitant because this bakery is known for their dessert. But boy was I in for a surprise when my scrambled eggs with salmon turned up.
The eggs were not over done and the salmon was cooked to perfection. The chives cream cheese on the French baguette and the side salad made the whole ensemble super satisfying.
My friend ordered the baked eggs with spinach and cream. Didn't really look like something I'd enjoy.
So if you are planning on trying their breakfast ,definitely go for the scrambled eggs!
We had ordered cake for my parents 25th wedding anniversary and we really got one of the best cakes custom made for us. The staff is very friendly and helpful. And the cakes are equally tasty and beautiful.
I will be coming here again for placing more cake orders and enhancing the occasion.
Nice cozy style, very friendly team and cakes are just amazing! Also their banana pudding is very special, all our family birthdays and special occasions are celebrated with Magnolia cakes????
I would only wish they have delivery service as it's not always easy to pick the order up
I just happened to walk into this one and it turned out to be a good idea. Coffee here nothing special. The German chocolate cake is amazing here. Worth it. I then had the velvet cheesecake and caramel pecan cheesecake which both seemed quite ordinary...
The menu is just a small glimpse of what beholds you inside Magnolia Bakery. It is a must try for all sweet tooths !
A plush bakery with a great ambience, interiors and and an ever so welcoming staff.
Must try out the Blueberry Cheesecake
The matte teal interiors surely work their magic along with vintage decors and the aroma - its therapeutic, hard to put into words. The most talked about banana pudding is very good but for me was slightly inclined on the sweet side. The red velvet cake simply stole my heart..... on a winter night a cup of coffee and a slice of cake.... bliss.
P.S. Perhaps it impressed me even more, as I had just visited another awful bakery in town.
Well.. This is a place that will make u go bananas! I had to check this place out after hearing so much about this place for quite some time now. Being located in galleria mall which is outside the main Abu Dhabi island is the only downside about this place but it's totally worth going. The cupcakes were really good and I was suggested to try out the banana pudding by the staff. It was really sweet but extremely good. I took a medium size helping of the banana pudding but I felt that their quantity was just too generous that a medium helping would be good for two people to share. The ambience of this place would definitely cheer you up if you are having a bad day. The staff were extremely polite.
It is definitely a great place to go out to satisfy you sweet tooth or for giving your kids a great treat. I personally loved my experience at this place.
Of course - the banana pudding!
That thing is just indescribable! U have to try it...
Mouth watering....but there's a lot of other things that really taste and look delicious like the cupcakes! Try and see for yourself
U enter the place and it just smells yumm and v v tempting. Everything looks v v fresh and just yummy. We ordered a brownie and a pecan nut pie. While both were awesome, though the first impressions are perhaps a mirage. Still highly highly recommended. Just be careful of the calories. :)
Our 'weekend post dinner sweet craving' drove us to choose magnolia bakery to indulge in some sweet treats. We have always walked past this place, and wanted to try out. The place is decked up in an old school fashion, but with a sweet charm of a simple bakery. Their menu concentrates mainly on the sweet baked treats, however there is a decent sandwich and coffee collection too. It's display of the treats is a pretty substantial menu in itself. We ordered the red velvette cheese cake with a chocolate cookie base and a peanut butter icebox pie. Our little one was offered a mini cupcake by the kind staff. Both our orders were quite indulgent and we couldn't finish it at a go. However, someone with a great sweet appetite could succeed in it. We asked for the left overs to be packed for the next craving. They have some beautiful old style baking related stuff to take back too. All in all it was a sweet experience and a great place.
Great cosy vibe - sweeter than sweet desserts which I just wish were just a little bit healthier! Cappucino was spot on too. Perfect for a girly get together for sure.
How can you not love this bakery? Supremely cute quaint little bakery with a beau-tiful display of lovely treats that you wouldn't normally find in a bakery in Abu Dhabi. You want to indulge in every single treat that you see and then settle for the Famous Banana Pudding with delicious vanilla wafers, bananas, and cream vanilla pudding. You will be mmmmm-ing with every bite. I have also tried the peanut butter icebox bar - looked tiny when I ordered it but so rich and can easily be shared by 3 people. The German Chocolate cake was lovely as well, rich with chocolate, coconut and nuts! Worth every calorie.
Two words: Banana pudding!
Love the red velvet cheese cake but didn't fancy the chocolate ones. Haven't tried there cup cakes cause am not fan of them. The banana pudding is yummy as well. Don't forget to take an espresso to go with your sweet to balance it out. Enjoy
One word could sum up Magnolia "heavenly"! I was so hyped up when they opened their doors to their enchanting world of sweets in Bloomingdales, Dubai Mall. Back then, all I knew was red velvet as of every one else. Only on Galleria Mall, that I was introduced to my two newest obsessions, Banana Pudding and Banana Cream Pie. They are so worth packing up some pounds!
I have read about this bakery on zomato and was waiting to try something from here
Seems you have to order in advance (5 hrs) and get cake of your choice. I dint know and walked in lucky to get their chocolate Choco cake which was the only one left for quick grab got it decorated
The staff was friendly and I could see they had lots of cup cakes variety
The cake was absolutely yummy. Sponge was not as usual soft and the cream so light and it was marvellous the combination of light Choco cream with dark coco sponge was superb
This is a sure place to visit soon when I get another chance
Try this and you will feel the difference
Always smiling when you enter, my best choice is carrot cup cake... But also cookies with sea salt and caramel are amazing!
magnolia bakery is located in The galleria mall in sowwah square..quite isolated place wherein few people only goes there. they had varieties from cupcakes to cakes, taste is good and is affordable too. staff are kind and warmth and the ambiance of theor place is just like home. the slice of their cake is huge and will be enough already for 2. overall is good!
Magnolia is designed in blue in purpose of looking elegant. Kudos, they've done a good job. Their display is usually appetizing and they even have an 'only for display' section for their custome designed cupcakes.
They are known for their Banana Pudding and it is quite great. The cream and banana flow well together even though I'm not a banana fan. To be fair, I'm no expert in banana pudding and Magnolia's is one of the few that I've had.
Their chocolate cake is very very rich. You have to have a bottle of water on the table next to you when you start consuming it. I felt like one layer of that cake would've been enough instead of two. Those pieces in the picture are too rich for one person to consume alone.
Their Key Lime Cheesecake is also very good. I enjoyed the raspberries flow with the cheese and the crust, they all flowed well. It was delicious.
Bottom line: delicious desserts.

You are bound to fall in love with the place as soon as you enter it. It's a chic and pretty dessert place with some light bites to munch on. I have thrice or so and have had varied experiences. The first time I went there I had the Red Velvet cheesecake and it's definitely to die for. I think one piece is good for two people unless you want to substitute it for dinner. The cake is thick in consistency but smooth at the same time and the biscuit base made from chocolate is the best ever. I was so satisfied with the red velvet cheesecake that the next time when we went, we experimented with the chocolate cheese cake. That was quite a disappointment. We were three and it still was an effort to finish the cake. I will definitely not be ordering the chocolate cheesecake again. Recently when we went there, we decided to order the most popular dessert of the bakery and undoubtedly the most popular item there is their banana pudding. They have two huge boxes of the pudding ready to serve plus cute take away boxes. The banana pudding was delicious. It's basically cake, banana and banana cream but it's sooo good. The fact that it's so simple yet so delicious makes it even better. The cream is also so fluffy and light. For snacks, we ordered the only two vegetarian items on the menu. One was a vegetarian wrap and the other was vegetarian Fusilli pasta. The pasta was dry but in a good way. It was very rich in flavor and very different from the regular pastas. The wrap on the other hand, though different was not up to the mark. For one, it had a lot of eggplant and I am not that fond of this particular vegetable. Also, the wrap wasn't made well. At the end, it was all dry and was left with only bread and no filling. I would definitely recommend Magnolia but only for their desserts. I still have to try quite a few of their items like the marble cake brownie and the huge red velvet cake but their red velvet cheesecake is a must try!
4 stars! And 3 of them are for the one thing I eat at Magnolia Bakery when I go on a carb fest, the Banana Pudding! The remaining 1 star I give to the Grilled Chicken Sandwich. Very mediocre! And at that price! It was dry and just blah! I'm sure I will go to this extremely popular cafe again to sample their other dishes but the Banana Pudding will always remain in my carb loving heart.
the cake tastes very moist and delisious i can't wait to come back again
