Picked up 2 dozen today Jan 1 2026, every single one was hard as if they were 2 to 3 days old. I live an hour away and drive several times throughout the year just to buy their cupcake they WERE that good. GTC did do the right thing and refunded my money but I just don’t know if I will again spend 2 hours going to get their cupcakes 😢

The famous Georgetown cupcakes never disappoint! Plus this location is so cute.
My first time going here was summer 2025 and the cupcakes were good. We tried them again last week December 2025 never again the chocolate was hard and thick on top of the cup cake and the cake part taste horrible like a crumble ball of corn starch 🤮 the cake part was also hard and the strawberry one taste like medicine. Does it have to be summer time for them to be good wow never again

Less crowded than the D.C. location and this girl left happy with my favorite cupcake,
the chocolate ganache. Parking is limited, but there is a lot across the street.
I have been here two times and I can honestly say they are a hit or miss ! The atmosphere is super cute it’s a boutique type of setting inside . The first time I had one of their cupcakes it was really great so I decided on my most recent adventure there to try them out , again . My second time going the cupcake was the worst cupcake ever please do not buy the “ chocolate cheesecake brownie cupcake “ I literally threw it away & almost up ! I was thinking it was gonna be a very different combination. It was a thick fudge on top it was literal chocolate cheesecake then a thin layer of crumbly brownie . I love chocolate ! But when I tell you that cupcake was flat out disgusting !!!! Some of the other cupcakes are good but that literally and figuratively put a bad taste in my mouth . I wish I had pictures !!!!

Really awful customer service. I bought $80+ worth of cupcakes (25). I had one cupcake that they gave me a paper bag and I asked them if they have a box, they asked to charge for it. I understand if you are buying a single cupcake, one should pay for a box but if you are buying over 2 dozen cupcakes, it’s unfair to charge for a box.

It was a nice treat. I had the coconut cupcake. It wasn't too dense or overly sweet. Good icing to cupcake ratio.

I ordered 6 cupcakes and they placed them in a box, sealed it with a sticker and placed the box in a bag. So far, so good. When I got home 4 of the 6 cupcakes were NOT what I ordered. If you order in person, take the time to open the box and check the contents, because the employees clearly do not take time to correctly fill your order.

They were the most delicious cupcakes I've ever had. A must-try; the cafe is very stylish, the waiters are friendly, and the cupcakes are delicious.

I came in a few weeks ago planning to pick up a dozen cupcakes, but the experience was honestly disappointing. As soon as I walked in, the place felt more like a high school hangout than a bakery. Most of the staff were standing around, glued to their phones or chatting with each other while music played in the background.
The only person who seemed to genuinely care or take their job seriously was the one working the register—also noticeably the oldest person there. They were handling customers and keeping things moving while the rest of the team looked completely disengaged.
For a brand like Georgetown Cupcake, I expected a more professional environment. Instead, it felt like customer service was an afterthought. I hope management takes a closer look at what’s going on at this location.

Awesome cup cake available in the town. The taste and texture are brilliant, I’m not a fan of hard fondue so I didn’t like the one that had chocolate fondue but the white raspberry flavor was awesome along with many other fluffy cupcakes. If u live in Montgomery county u can try the Bethesda cup cake store as I haven’t found any difference in taste between the DC store and Bethesda store. The prices are also reasonable!
The place is quite small and over the weekend the line flows out and goes on and on, better go between 11-12 in the morning to skip lines.
