I love this place. I've come here serval times especially for their tiramisu matcha latte…read more Unfortunately, every staff member makes its differently. Out of all the times I had it, I can say 2 times it was made the best. The best ratio of cream, matcha, sweetness, etc. They always have a variety of pastries to pick from. & though the line can be a little long sometimes, they move fast. I've sat in the restaurant a couple times, usually there is a lot of people, but it a really nice establishment.

We got the pinkfong cake for my daughter's birthday since it looked so cute. However the taste was…read morethe issue as it did not taste good at all. The frosting used on the outside and the cream used on the inside was not the fluffy and soft kind we liked and was not similar to the other cakes from this bakery that we liked. It tasted like hard butter and unfortunately we had to throw out the entire cake since everyone refused to eat more than the first bite. My husband asked the employee if this was a vanilla sponge cake and they said yes since he cannot eat chocolate cake. Unfortunately once we cut it, it was chocolate. It was a waste of $50+ and would not recommend unless you're just purchasing for pictures and not to eat. The mango and strawberry croissants were good with sweet whipped cream. I liked how the cream also tasted like mango in the mango croissant. The sweet pretzel was also good and crunchy. The inside of the store is nice with plenty of tables. I also liked how there were a lot of outlet spaces.

A hidden gem in MOCO.... If you love Paneras or Whole Food…read morebaked goods, you'll fall in love with Spring Mills pastries. My favorite is their danishes. Then its their blueberry scones. And last its their croissants. If you love fresh baked bread, Their Challah bread is a favorite in my favorite. So good. 1 loaf isn't enough. Best time to go is in the morning, its baked fresh. Located in the shopping center near Playa Bowls by Q.O high school. Also if you have the Too Good to Go app sometimes you'll have great deals.

The nicest people work at Spring Mill Bakery. I was picking up subs around the corner and I called…read moreto see if they had my favorite gingerbread cookies? The young man who answered the phone said they had a few left. I asked if he would put 2 cookies away for me and I gave him my name. What a nice thing to do! Plus, there is a new cookie that I love. The oatmeal raisin cookie is soft, flavorful, and tastes amazing. You definitely have to try that one too. Spring Mill Bread's also has delicious breads. I loved their challah bread. It is tender and tasty. I am looking forward to trying their apple-cinnamon bread. Yum! This is a cute little shop. There are no tables for seating. But, once you try their delicious baked goods, you won't mind at all. You will be in the zone of baked goods delight!

Most people, especially on weekends and days off, have time to go out and shop--but you close quite early, which limits that opportunity. These kinds of hours don't make much sense for a popular bakery. It feels more like an office schedule than a customer-focused business. If you had more flexible hours, more people would be able to enjoy the quality you offer.

I was lucky enough to have my birthday cake ordered from Les Delices French bakery. Les Delices is…read morea family favorite for birthdays and anniversaries. This year, my cake was a tiramisu birthday cake and it looked exquisite. The taste was amazing! I am still smiling when I think about how fabulous it tasted. Service is always exceptional and they are the nicest people who own this small family bakery. It is a small business with a counter and no seating area. So, plan to take your baked goods home. Once you try Les Delices Bakery, no other cake will compare. Sorry, I forgot to take a picture before we cut the cake and started eating. It was heavenly.

Overall: Japong Bakery is a hit for bread, would come back to try some more…read more Food: The bread here was fantastic, each one has their own charm and there is a wide enough selection that everyone has at least one that they will like. I especially liked the sandwich bread, it reminded me of the breakfast sandwiches I would get in Taiwan. Service: Normal service for an Asian style bakery, you get the bread yourself and pay at the register. Ambiance: A chill ambiance inside with a few tables. Enough to have a small group, but not exactly roomy enough for larger groups.

I have to give 1 star just because I have to in order for me to write a review. Otherwise this…read morebakery would not even deserve a star!!!!! Last Sunday, I wanted to happily buy a cake for Mother's Day but after I already paid as price tag was shown. The owner suddenly came over and said there was an extra charge because it was a "Mother's Day Special" . Apparently "Special" means rising the price by surprising their customers. Honestly, if there's a holiday surcharge, I would truly understand! But it should be clearly stated before payment -- not after. Very disappointing experience. I only bought it because my mom loves mango cake, but I definitely won't be coming back again I am pretty certain that you're not allowed to raise the price on an item already paid for. It's not the money. It's the principle. This is unethical.

Bonjour, Mon Ami! ( Hello, my friend...) It is good to visit and enjoy your delicious pastries!…read moreEven though I arrived late in the day, the pastry cases were full of enticing baked goods. There was every kind of croissant you can imagine. I bought my favorite almond croissant. There were fruit and cream filled pastries. I bought a fruit and cream filled pastry too. There were a lot of chocolate delicacies. I am going to buy some on my next trip. The ambiance is lovely. There are tables and chairs to sit and enjoy your sweets. There are cases filled with pastries. Service was great. I was waited on right away and they packed my box in a bag with a handle, to make it easier to carry. Au revoir, for now! But, I will be back for more delicious sweets.

Everything else was tasty too, but I did not enjoy the salt bread, maybe because I've had the actual thing in Korea lol. Would pass on that item. But overall, a great spot for pastries! I also liked their Korean Milk Coffee. Service was friendly. Would say it's your typical Paris Baguette internally.

Deal alert! Passion Bakery has their fresh made-to-order breakfast sandwiches available all day,…read moreand the price is right! Went in on the weekend mid-afternoon when it wasn't crowded, and got the egg and cheese on rye for $5.50. The cafe is on the campus of the National Cancer Institute and within walking distance from Shady Grove Hospital, so I'd guess that parking could be a hassle during the work week. On the weekend though it was nice and quiet with plenty of room to spread out, and there is a great patio space in the front! Tried their spinach croissant which was tasty too!

If I didn't ask for the price prior, I would think that's the price of the small cake since there no price of the cake in sight. I ordered few other items as well and none of them tasted fresh. They all tasted like pre-made then defrosted goods.

I came for breakfast this morning after reading that they were closing permanently at the end of…read morenext week. It's always hard to see a restaurant that's been in business for over 10 years close its doors. So, I made the 25 minute drive from Silver Spring to say au revoir. I had a cuppa tea and a raspberry pistachio croissant that I read so much about. It was good, but I think it was over-hyped up. It basically tasted like a croissant with raspberry jam spread inside. I didn't really taste much of the pistachio paste. I'm glad I tried it. I also bought a pain chocolate pastry which I had with my afternoon tea at home. In hindsight, I should've bought some of the non-croissant pastries from the bottom shelf. They were tempting, but I only have one stomach. This place will be missed, but the newish French-Japanese bakery, Tours de Jours will have to fill its shoes.

So sad that Lavande is closing! They've consistently served up delicious baked goods for 10 years…read moreand I've been enjoying them for about 4 years. They have a delicious lavender latte and their croissants are inventive and perfectly executed. The shop itself has a live edge counter to sit at and watch the world go by and a few seats outside. I stopped by this weekend to support them for the last time. Everything was so good-especially the meringue on the yuzu croissant. Best of luck to the people of Lavende in whatever they persue next!
