  I wish I knew the name of the woman who helped me tonight. She is a rock star. There seemed to be a new hire at the cashier and he was struggling, but there is a woman who works here who is running this shit! She was like a tornado... putting together postmates orders, refilling the  cinnabon display, and keeping an ear out for my order. When she could tell she needed to jump in, she did, and she made my 4 sundaes in like 3 minutes flat. When I realized I had forgotten a side of sprinkles, she happily threw some in for free.
  
  I paid a pretty expensive cab fare from the Upper East Side to get here because it's the only Carvel that I know about in Manhattan and Postmates sucks the big one. I will happily come back if this woman is working again because it was such a positive experience.

  I came here on a Monday around lunch time. They weren't busy when I arrived, but about 4 people came in right behind me.
  
  There's no seating, so everything is to go. The inside is tiny. There's enough room for about 6 people to stand before it gets crowded.
  
  Customer service was quite good. They asked if I wanted extra pecans or icing on my purchases.
  
  They have regular cinnamon buns, pecan cinnamon buns, mini buns, churros, and only the center. They also have the pretzels and finger bite pretzels from Auntie Anne's, and probably some other things, but I didn't look closely at that side. I was too distracted by the cinnamon buns.
  
  You really have to plan your seating as there's no seating here. I took my Cinnabon to Sticky's on 9 Ave to enjoy them with some seating and fried chicken fingers.

  I love pretzels and AA has some great ones that are just the right amount of diabetes.
  
  If you like spicy and you like cheese-y flavors GET THE SALSA cheddar. I could bathe in a vat of that stuff. (Not really.)
  
  That being said-
  
  This particular half AA/ half cinabon, excuse my language: sucks.
  
  I have no idea what the cashier's problem was; I personally go out of my way to try to be friendly to cashiers because I've done the whole cashier/fast food/ service gig, but THIS woman. ‍
  
  She huffed every time she had to move, she took the LONGEST I've ever seen to ring up 3 people for a pretzel and she proceeded to talk to one of her friends standing in the corner the whole time.
  
  Not that I'm truly looking for a magical experience here from the good old AA, but come on, just get us in and out and you can continue having your convo with your girl pal.
  
  2/5 ( cause I still loved and ate my pretzel with salsa cheese )

  This place in Hell's kitchen on 8th Ave and 43rd St is triple trouble with Annie's pretzels , cinnabon and carvels all under one roof .I can't walk back to work with soft ice cream in my hands but a half dz flying  saucers , 6 assorted large pretzels and a box of mini cinnabons is taking the walk back with me . Many calories as well is making the journey with me but who cares cause the moment I get back to the office my useless workers will come alive with joy . The place inside is limited space wise so order and go on your way and other thing I must mention , this place bangs you out wallet wise as I got 60 bucks less in my wallet after ordering all the yummy goodies .Really like the pretzels from Annie's but I like to keep it simple and always order the plain kind  and the mini nuggets are also my favorite but I can't go overboard today but tomorrow is a different story if I am in the area again . Until we meet again triple treat or triple threat or triple trouble ,. Whatever 4 STARS on my Yelp meter.

  If you don't always give Auntie Anne's pretzels 5 stars, we can NOT be friends.
  
  Anyone who grew up in Suburbia, USA knows that these are the best things about our obligatory childhood trips to the mall with our parents.
  
  All these years have gone by and their recipe hasn't changed one bit. The soft, chewy, buttery saltiness makes 30-year-old Sarah feel 9 again.
  
  Don't you ever, ever say bad things about AA.
