Woops in the Park

Not as crispy as it is supposed to be, but still good macarons. My favorite is their coconut macarons!

A bit to overpriced for my taste but the macaroons were good and fresh, my kids loved it not exactly my cup of tea but the park is fun.

I was pretty skeptical to buy a macaron here because of the name. Not only have I never heard of Woops (and I follow macaron news quite closely, if I do say so myself), but well, it’s called Woops. And I most definitely should have listened to my own skepticism. It might be a little unfair because I only tried one flavor (the mint, since I rarely ever see mint), but it ended up tasting as radioactive as it looked. The texture was also so-​so. If I’m going to pay $ 2.75 for a macaron, I’d really like it to taste better than what I could bake myself.

I always walk by this location in port authority and figured I would finally purchase some after seeing it in Bryant Park. I agree with every one else, this place is pricey, but in my opinion they do have better than average macarons! The one’s here are $ 2.75 each but most of the other places I’ve been to have them for $ 2.50 and they are not as good. I ordered the six pack which comes in a cute and colorful package. I think this 6 pack would make a great gift!
So far I’ve just eaten the red velvet and the dark chocolate but both were soft, gooey, and flavorful. I’m looking forward to trying the rest of them!

Woops, I rated them based on price… foolish me. Their pumpkin macaron was not quite worth the $ 2.75 I was charged by a charming Israeli girl.
They also have Eclairs in the Park for an even more absurd $ 6.50 each — the insulting Unilocal team decided to rename the listing I added for their sister stand, but they have an éclair spinoff as part of the Bryant Park Winter Village Holiday shops too

Look’s amazing but $ 2.75 for a macaron is quite pricey. Especially when it’s more expensive then Laduree and it didn’t blow my mind. I had the red velvet, pumpkin and blueberry. I prefer Laduree and Macaon parlour. It’ll be worth it.

Yum. Yum. Yum.
This is what a coffee macaron should taste like.
We stopped in because we were wandering around Bryant Park and wanted a snack. My wife loves macarons so we decided to test this place out and each grab a snack. I went for peanut butter and she went for chocolate.
The chocolate one was pretty good in my wife’s opinion, but my peanut butter one was outrageous.
This is what a macaron should taste like! OMG. PEANUT BUTTER DELICIOUSNESS.
It had great flavor and a great texture. If you don’t LOVE peanut butter it would be far too much to handle. I’d give a few more flavors there a shot because the peanut butter one was such a hit!

At $ 2.75 each, these macarons are even more expensive than Laduree’s! They are however slightly larger, if that matters. I tried the green tea macaron. The texture was kind of weird and not very uniform, flavor wise– it wasn’t too bad. Overall, it wasn’t very memorable.

This place sells macarons and cookies at Bryant Park! It’s probably here until the Christmas season is over, and it’s parked right next to the Celsius restaurant. I got the strawberry macaron which was just ok… I wish it were more moist and flavorful. I wanted to try their red velvet but they were out. Next time, perhaps!
