Macrina recently supplied a wonderful lemon butter cake for my wedding. The cake was moist and delicious, and did not taste stale or frozen. Macrina decorated my three tiers simply with a buttercream frosting and little dots while my florist added flowers. They bake the cake the night before, and decorate it the morning of the event. It was just perfect. When you do sheet cakes with them to supplement, the per-person price is very reasonable. Plus they have free delivery in Seattle.\r
As to their bakery, I'd have to agree with other reviewers. Food = yummy. The chocolate chip cookies are to die for, especially when they are fresh and hot. However, the service behind the counter is hit-or-miss. Sometimes they are friendly and expedient. At other times they are super slow and don't really look like they want to deal with customers.\r
Overall, since my wedding cake experience was great, and the food is excellent, I'm giving them a Recommended.
Pros: Food is great. Wedding cake great.
Cons: Day-to-day counter service can be so-so.
