Choclate cake. Not good
Neli R.

I would not recommend the pastries here nor the cake. Honestly, their cake and pastries taste a couple of days old, and the pastries are soggy and old. My niece ordered a chocolate cake on the 4th of July for my birthday. She said she tried to place an order online the day before and the day of, but she could not. So she just called in to see if they had made extras that day. They did, so we went to pick it up. My niece ordered the chocolate cake, which was hard from the outside, dry from the bread, and it didn't have much flavor. Their cake is a little bland and old for my taste. I tried to give them another chance by going back on July 12th. I ordered several pastries. One was a carrot cake and the cream puff. I would not recommend either. The cream puff was soggy and, again, taste like it was a few days ago. I can't even describe what the carrot cake tastes like. It was not good. I did try their mango cake, and that was edible. I don't think I will be back.

Nice desserts in a cute cafe! My favorite cake was the mango - it was light and had a good mango flavor. Tiramisu was also really tasty - moist with a delightful coffee flavor. The carrot cake was a bit dense and the icing was hard, but still tasted yummy. The fruit cake was good, but on the drier side. I liked the flavor, though. The presentation for the cake slices could be better, but it's not bad. I recommend this cafe for certain pastries and desserts! Will definitely be back to try more.

Pastries galore!! These 8 pastries weighed about a pound ($17/pound). Skip the heavy-weight Napoleon and get more cream puffs - next time!

Delicious light and fluffy pastries. My bestie gifted me with a delivery of the 10 piece cake sampler which was a perfect assortment of vanilla, chocolate, and fruity pastries. Great for my parents who enjoy fruit pastries while my hubby is a chocolate feign and I'm up for anything! You can't really go wrong here. The pastries are small and easy to conquer. Between the 4 us, we devoured the box. Perfect for sharing! The Fruit Tart is quite large and delicious as well! The Carrot Cake, Tiramisu, Raspberry, Strawberry Shortcake, and Oreo pastries were my favorites - pretty much 1/2 the box! The cake is pretty light and moist without the density or grease. Enjoyed the pastries so much that I came back for more and visited the shop. The bakery is tucked in the corner of a small shopping center next to Pita Pit. It's quite cozy inside and fills up quickly. While there are small tables inside, there's not much space for seating. There's a galore of pastries to choose from petite cake slices to shortbread cookies and Persian pastries. It was a bit overwhelming. You pay by weight at $17/pound and can get about 6-10 pastries for a pound. I scored 5 petite cake slices, a couple of cream puffs, and the Napoleon which collectively weighed about a pound. Next time I would opt for more of the airy light-weight cream puffs and skip the heavy-weight Napoleon! It was a bit too dense. Glad to support this small family-owned business and there's another location in Gaithersburg as well! Will be back for more!

Decent bakery. Overall all the pastries were good but pretty small like 2x3 maybe. For me to be like 'omg this place has the best pastries ever' it has to have something outstanding. The pastries just didn't have the wow factor for me.

Just stop by to get a cup of coffee. The place has potential, they offer some pastries, they looked very nice, but I haven't had any. Didn't like coffee, watery. We asked for cups and they were dusty, nobody cared to rinse them off.

I came here this morning during a quick work break because I had yet to have my coffee for the day. I've grown somewhat tired of the same old regular office coffee, and this place is close enough. I was down for the latte macchiato, and I also got me a sea salt rice Krispy treat. It took the nice person behind the counter less than thirty seconds to whip-up this latte, which kind of made sense especially considering that I was the only customer in the store. I would definitely characterize this place as a bakery rather than a cafe, and they have several displays of cakes and baked goods. The e bakery is clean and nice, but nothing like a real cafe where you would commonly see people working or hanging out with friends. The latte and prepared rice Krispy treat were delicious.

0/10 horrible just horrible the strawberry cake we bought was horrible. The strawberry was too spicy and the cake had no flavor. Just felt like dough and vanilla. This is absolutely horrible. I dont know why they got this was a good idea to sell this. It's absolute scam. Also another thing called classic bakery, more like classic tragedy don't ever buy the strawberry cakes or anything from here again and another thing somebody said this was good it is not good- Caleb Definitely gave diet cake No it's nasty another thing I wish I could put zero stars. This place sucks never eat from here again go to cheesecake factory or something

Red velvet in lavender flowers.
Raychelle S.

WOWOWOWOOWWOWOW! I am so happy we chose to go here for my birthday cake! I knew about Classic Bakery because its across the street from my office and so I am familiar with the treats. When we saw they do custom cakes it was an easy sell! The prices were standard as they are doing a custom cake for you so don't be surprised when you have to spend a nice dime. The options were endless. They are quick to respond via email as well so if you have questions don't hesitate to reach out to them. We decided on a cake that was decorated with flowers all over it and the cake was red velvet. We even got to customize the color of the flowers. The red velvet was the best that I have ever had! It was MOIST and super flavorful and the cream cheese was amazing. I would 100% go back! No regrets!

I am not a fan. I spent some $31 for their packaged variety pack of sweets and slices of cakes and roulettes. And I didn't like any of the stuff. This place isn't cheap but doesn't taste great is a problem for me. It may not be my kind of treats, I don't know. I simply won't be recommending this place for its amazing desserts. I also didn't like the weird attitude from the cashiers.

Nadine A.

I stopped by yesterday to pick up some treats and the place was fully stocked, tidy, and busy! They do weight based pricing, so for example the small cake pieces are $17/lb. There are 4 different box sizes to choose from, I chose box size 3 and once filled up it cost $32. You can see how much I got in the photo. The place has a nice variety of cakes and cookies, as well as middle eastern desserts, so you can try a bit of everything. Overall I found it a bit pricy as the desserts are not super fancy, but I enjoyed everything.

I found the service here prompt and pleasant., so I guess they took some Yelp reviews to heart. I had a large cappuccino which was about 1/2 foam. (It was also too bitter for me - but I'm a coffee wimp.) We tried 6 different items. The pastries and coffee set us back about $13 We tried 3 of their cake squares: hazelnut chocolate cake), tiramisu (yellow cake), and coconut (yellow cake). None of these were overly sweet (positive) but none had spectacular flavor(negative). The tiramisu was almost tasteless. We didn't finish any of them. The mini eclair was delicious and we would definitely order again. The mini palmier was also outstanding, crispy and sweet. Finally, we tried an almond roll (cookie). It was ground nuts with dough and honey. I expected to like this the best, bit it wasn't especially flavorful. I liked the fact that the pastries were sold by weight and not piece. Just not sure the calories would be worth the trip.

I love the Gaithersburg location of the Classic Bakery a lot. I've always had a wonderful experience with ordering their cakes there. It saddens me that this location did not live up to those standards. I will say though that the store itself was very clean and the employees were friendly. I ordered the matcha green tea latte and a variety of pastries - mini oreo cake, fruit cake, and baklava. The matcha latte lacked that strong matcha green tea flavor. It seemed watered down. Other than the baklava, the pastries were just okay. I will likely just stick to getting their full sized cakes when I'm in the Maryland area. Their signature fruit cake, chocolate truffle cake, and mocha cakes are really good!

We tried 5 different flavors of cake and a few of the Greek pastries and they did not taste fresh, were bland and dry.

For the affordability, Best Buns Bakery & Burgers I thought was definitely worth it. When trying to…read morefind places that have a rosemary loaf, we were recommended to check out Best Buns Bakery & Burgers. We came here a couple of times and both times we found ourselves pleased. We were told that this bakery basically does the baking for a chain family group. So, knowing that we wanted to check this place out. They have different types of baked goods and loaves that you can purchase along with sandwiches and your usually coffees. This is connected to a restaurant right next door, and so it's a quick in and out if you're in a rush. Or if you want to sit around and have your baked good and then leave, there's seating as well. I had a breakfast sandwich and it was affordable.If you're looking for somewhere simple I would definitely recommend to check this place out.

I've generally had good experiences here, but today's visit was enough to make me reconsider coming…read moreback for food. I waited almost 15 minutes for a bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit while watching at least six people who arrived after me get their orders first. Annoying, but whatever. Things happen. What I absolutely could NOT overlook was watching the woman who made my sandwich handle that dirty rag they use to wipe down the counters with her bare hands, then go right back to preparing sandwiches without washing her hands. No gloves, no handwashing, nothing. Absolutely disgusting! I'm not sure why basic food safety and sanitation practices aren't being followed, but that's a huge problem. If you're going to handle food with bare hands, the very least you can do is wash them after touching a dirty cleaning rag! Based on that alone, I definitely won't be ordering prepared food here again. Maybe I'll stick to pastries, but honestly, now I'm questioning those too. It's unfortunate because I've never really had an issue here before, but once you see something like that, it's hard to unsee it.

We ate the first 2 slices without the frosting or sauces because we didn't know. Once we ate combined the proper sauces and frosting..... Oh my! The cake batter is a little dense but moist and flavorful. Not overly sweet like typical store cake. Very smart recipe . The light , low key cake batter lets out light hints of batter flavor. It allows the icing to be the star. The icing and frosting are unbelievable! It is bursting full of natural flavors . The orange curd were made of fresh orange pulp and you can't taste the ingredients well. Overall, the best cake I have ever had. If you're looking for a cake that will wow and impress your guests, this is it. Everyone will be asking where did you buy this cake? Now the crème brûlée, it was rich, creamy and delicious! It came complete with a gold dusted cherry. Very impressed by this find and looking forward to ordering a birthday cake!

When i was around in the area, i typed in AI for the best croissants…read more They have the best matcha croissants They only make that over the weekend Friendly staff and great atmosphere as well

Nice boutique cafe with a galore of croissants, donuts, cookies with some seasonal/weekly specials…read more I've made my rounds through the menu and ate more pastries than I can count! The seasonal Donuts and the Croissant Tarts keep me coming back! Best Donuts - Pumpkin Pie Donut, Tiramisu Donut, Key Lime Pie, Boston Cream, and Hot Cocoa Nutella donut. The Strawberry and Raspberry have a Jelly/Jam filling. I wasn't a big fan of the Cookie Butter Donut, Cannoli donut, or the Dot Cake Donut, or S'mores donut. The Cookie Butter donut tasted like creamy peanut butter while the Cannoli donut that didn't have the sweet creamy filling that I was hoping for and the Funfetti frosting was a bit off on the Dot Cake Donut (super fun to see all the dot sprinkles on top!). I wish there was more marshmallow filling in the S'mores onut. Croissant Tarts - Both the sweet and savory tarts deliver! The Raspberry Cream Cheese Tart, Red Pepper Feta Tart, Apple Tart, and Everything Tart are all delicious! The classic Garlic Spinach Tart and Shroom Tart are fine. Best Croissants - Christmas Tree Raspberry Croissant, Hazelnut Chocolate Mousse Croissant, Apple Butter Crumble Croissant, Almond Croissant, and Matcha Croissant. The Berry Brioche Tart was fun to try, but not my favorite. The cookies are pretty light and fluffy, the Lemon Cheesecake Cookie tasted like a lemon sugar cookie with no filling. The Kitchen Sink cookie was an interesting blend of salty flavors (chips, pretzels, toffee). For Valentine's Day, the Linzer sugar cookie filled with raspberry jam was delicious! So glad I grabbed the last one by 11am on Saturday! For Mother's Day, there were colorful macaroons. All of the fillings with the donuts and croissants are whipped and pretty light. There's a parking garage next door and you can get parking validated for 1 hour. While there's plenty of seating inside, it can get packed over the weekends. There's no outdoor seating (there's some makeshift seating around the high-rise building). Great local bakery with a lot of baked goodies to choose from!
