If I could give 5 stars every time I visit, I would. This place has awesome butter cake and pecan squares. I'm not into Whoopie pies, but I've had a couple here and they're very good. So many people complain about the cupcakes and think that's the defining thing about this bakery. I disagree. Try one of their butter cake or pecan squares and you will forget about your bad experience with their cupcakes. It's like... try to buy more than one thing before you give a bad review, people! You're better than that!

The butter cake was tasty but unfortunately too sweet. Couldn’t go past one bite.

Don’t waste your time. I’ve bought cupcakes from this place in the past - they were dry. Today, my family and I were visiting and I saw no line at this counter and ordered my kids some lemonade - it is so bitterly tart. As if they threw lemons with the rind on in the blender. - I did tell the flying monkey staff that the lemonade was awful. That my kids refused to drink it - it’s that bad. The lady at the counter asked rudely if I tried it. I told them yes and I’d agree, it’s gross - they did not care, did not offer to refund my money.
Stating they use real lemons. And also said that I could add simple syrup to it. - Like what?? If you know your product needs a little extra something then why don’t YOU fix it? I wasted $12.

Go to the pretzel booth next to this one and get a much better tasting lemonade with friendlier staff to serve you. This place is not worth your money.

The s’mores are fantastic!! Proportions tick all of the boxes: marshmallows, chocolate chips, and graham crackers!

And quick and friendly service in the terminal market. Iced coffee also very good.

$4 per whoopee pie and it was interesting to try but nothing amazing. It would be nice if there were sets like buy 1 for $4 and 2 for $7 but nothing of the sorts. The size were underwhelming and the flavors were nothing special.
Won an award once back in 2014.. I think it's time to let the past go....

Stopped by Flying Monkey Bakery a few weeks ago and everything we ordered was delicious. They have some of the best Ginger Snaps I’ve ever tasted.

Flying monkey was decent. We tried the classic and red velvet whoopie. It was fun to try something new but it’s not something I would need to try again. They were a little dry in parts with not enough filling on the edges. Just wasn’t blown away by any means. The guy working the counter was friendly and had $2 waters which was cheaper than most other places I saw. Not something that I’m dying to get back to but would eat one if it showed up in front of me.

I will highly recommend you try the ginger molasses cookie and the fudge brownie. The top two items on the menu that I personally enjoyed. The lady at the register was very welcoming and polite.

I ordered two vegan variety boxes and received the same flavor of the two types of items I ordered. That isn't variety to me. I called about it and was told 'that's what we had and there's nothing we can do about it' when I was just asking about the flavors. Very disappointed in the service. Will not revisit.

So I guess you guys are selective on who you guys Give out napkins too. I know it’s petty, but don’t say that I have to go to the place where I got my food from even though it’s on the other side of the market and then five minutes later turn around and give it to somebody (who is obviously not my hue And obviously did not order from you guys) Napkins. Shameful.
