Chill coffee house style music playing in the background. I chose the lemon bar and it was on point. The lemon flavor was so memorable. I would definitely come back again.

Great pastry shop, with a full array of cakes, pies, cookies, and desserts!!…read more What a great place in Alexandria! This place is a winner all around - the selection of sandwiches, both hot and cold, is terrific and the quality super high. I had a genuinely hard time deciding which sandwich and which deli salad to choose because they all looked and sounded so good. The pastries are both gorgeous and delicious - all made right on the premises. There is plenty of seating inside. The service was very friendly (and patient as I agonized over my order) and the fact it's not a chain, it's a small family-owned business that really makes this place so unique and their baked goods even more special. it really is a neighborhood gem and worth a try!

It's in a shopping center close to my Pilates studio. I know. I know. Now to add insult to injury they offer dirty sodas. I tried the free soda promo in their app. We choose the Glow Up: A low-calorie "cooler" base made with Water + Sugar-Free Vanilla + Sugar-Free Coconut + Strawberry Purée + Coconut Cream. They offer 40 customizable combinations, featuring sodas, chargers, and coolers mixed with syrups, fruit purées, creams, and fresh lime but you can make your own. The Soda: Uses classic carbonated soft drinks like Dr Pepper.Cooler: Uses still water or sparkling.Charger: Uses energy drinks. I'll stick with the coolers if I purchase again.

I stopped by this bakery on a Friday to pick up a birthday treat for my friend before our lunch. I…read moreusually go for cupcakes, but this time the chocolate cake in the display case immediately caught my eye. I stood there debating for a bit--looking at the cupcakes (carrot, red velvet, espresso) and even considering the macaroons, especially the chocolate one. But in the end, the chocolate cake kept calling my name, so I went with that. The woman helping me was really kind and even offered to give me a candle for the cake, which I thought was a nice touch. She boxed it up for me and didn't completely close the top of the box, which honestly made it feel a little extra special--like a sneak peek of the cake inside. I brought it to the restaurant where we were having lunch, and my friend was so happy when I surprised her with it. We shared it for dessert after our meal. I was a little nervous buying a cake I hadn't pre-ordered, but it turned out to be delicious--moist, rich, and perfectly chocolatey. There was a bit more frosting than I personally prefer, but the cake itself was gorgeous and tasted great. There was also a vanilla cake with rainbow sprinkles in the case that looked really tempting, but since my friend loves chocolate, I definitely made the right choice. She even compared it to a cake she had recently bought herself and said this one was better. I told her if she couldn't finish it, she could always freeze the rest and enjoy it later. That's actually what I like to do with leftover desserts--freeze them and pull them out when I'm craving a sweet treat. Overall, it was a great last-minute birthday pick and the cake was a hit. I'll definitely be back the next time I need a sweet treat--and honestly, I might have to try that vanilla cake with rainbow sprinkles because it looked so scrumptious!!

Loved the shop, the colors and setup would have made our granddaughter smile. The Staff (2 young ladies) were super friendly and helpful, one of them gave us a little history of bakery and how they rotate flavors. Service was awesome. We were able to select (two) cupcakes (for the tour), we choose a red velvet and a Boston creme style. I loved both, definitely the best cupcakes we have had in the DMV. Way better than the ones we tried in Georgetown. I liked the box/container that was used for our to go order. I would suggest that the swinging sign be replaced (missing) as it would definitely draw more attention from the passerby.

But I think they are best known for their custom cake creations. I've seen them in action delivering a huge cake to someone for some special event, and this thing was nearly three times the size of an ordinary cake. Today I purchased a whole red velvet cake and I am betting that it's as delicious as the lemon morange pie that Ingot from here a couple of months ago. The employees here are also extra nice to every customer who walks thru their door. They have real manners and I can tell that they respect your time as well. If you happen to live in the Alexandria area, I would highly recommend this bakery for their awesome cakes and pies.

Stopped into Dolci Gelati in Old Town Alexandria and immediately ran into the classic problem:…read more"I'll just try a little something." Famous last words. Went with the Biscoff and pistachio gelato. Both were excellent, but the Biscoff is clearly the crowd favorite--I even asked the staff what people usually order, and they didn't hesitate. So of course I did the responsible thing and ordered it... and then almost didn't share it. Normally I'd pace myself. Not here. Also tried an Americano, which was surprisingly solid. Not an afterthought coffee situation at all--actually good enough that I'd come back just for that alone. What really stood out though was the staff. Super friendly, all smiles, really personable. I think the guy who helped me was named Avery--shoutout to him for making the whole thing feel like a neighborhood spot instead of "just grab dessert and leave." Bottom line: this is one of those places you end up going back to "just to try one more flavor," and suddenly it's a habit. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Old Town... which, realistically, will be sooner than I'm admitting.
