I've been to Seylou at least seven times now. Always enjoy the pastries and ambiance. First two times I ever went the lattes were great! Lately, I find coffee grounds at the bottom of most iced lattes I've ordered there. Coffee itself is great, but the grounds getting in one's mouth ruins the experience. Please don't let your coffeeshop go downhill -- more extensive training for the baristas would be great so that coffee grounds stop ending up in the drinks. Thanks for your consideration.

Today’s daily special, the Vanilla Poached Pear Danish with Ginger Pastry Cream & Candied Ginger, was one of the best pastries I have ever had. So incredibly delicious! The staff were patient, friendly, and kind. There is no public wifi, but they offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and a very clean restroom. I can’t wait to return and see their future special selections!

This place is like a warm hug every time I go. Their pastries and delicious, clearly made with great care. My all time favourite are their savoury scones, I take as many as are available because they ran out fast! Pizza night is a delight as well and you should def try it! The staff is very kind and there is a family feel to the atmosphere 🥰

Chai tea latte was very flavorful and pleasant. Bread was pretty dry. Amazing, nuanced pain aux raisins.

Great bread, but nothing too special about the pastries. They claim very novel flavors but you can't taste those ingredients. Their muhammara danish tasted more like bell pepper paste than the tang of muhammara, for instance. The kale/cheddar scone wasn't balanced and more bitter from the kale than it should have been. Corn breton was great, but in that it was basically a southern corn cake, not a twist on the classic. The cinnamon roll is nothing special. Plus: 1) They don't list their prices in the store. You just are charged what you're charged 2) If you want your pastry warmed, it's a whole song and dance

Nice place with unique pastries. Recommend to try. The till service was lacking attention and could be more switched on.
The food was great. I'm not a huge bread eater. In fact I usually go for meals that don't center around bread but I decided to stop off because I kept hearing about Seylou from some of my friends. I'm glad I did. First, the food is great. You can just taste the quality of all the ingredients.
The service was wonderful as well. The staff is just so friendly. When you come in, they treat you as if you belong there. I also happened to run into some old friends I hadn't seen in a while which was a pleasant surprise.
We sat outside and the atmosphere was wonderful.
I would recommend going if you want something high quality.

Hands down my favorite bakery in DC. Hyperlocal, fresh, quality pastries that are delicious and actually feel nutritious. The drinks are amazing too. The owners and staff are lovely and always welcoming. <3

Best bakery in the Washington Metro area.

Owner or boss takes a lot of time to listen and communicate with customers on a personal level.
If you want to feel welcomed and to build a friendly relationship with a local shop. This is a good place to start
