50 Best Bakeries near Glenarden

“Love it and love her. Susan created a beautiful Black Carpet Affair themed cake for my 40th birthday. If you know how birthdays go, sometimes you miss out on things at your own party! After the event, everyone raved about how delicious the cake was! She will definitely continue to be my go to!“

“The Bundt cakes were amazing for my daughter’s wedding. The variety was amazing. Thank you so much!“

“It was my first time going to this place , the staff can try to be more welcoming and pleaseant and help they clients to order , I had to take my mask off to speak and let them know what i wanted and as i was ordering I felt like i was being rushed to order , the food was tasting but tge owner needs to change the way the food is charged , I was charge for each separate item this is not a place where you order yourself a complete meal for a full charge , the food was delicious but I would not go back and another turn off in the bakery area they had flies around the sweet bread .“

“Great cakes and bread, everything was delicious!“

“Adorable little bakery tucked into an alleyway in Union Market. They're in the middle of the alley and impossible to spot (unless, as there often is, there's a line out the door), so it can feel a little sketchy to walk aimlessly through a random alleyway, but Bread Alley makes the walk super cute with a lovely string of arrows pointing you to their gorgeous black brick and wooden storefront.

They don't have a full-time cashier, so if you get to Bread Alley during one of their off-peak hours, you have to knock or ring the bell and wait for one of their bakers to come open the door for you. Once they do, you'll be welcomed into a cozy little shopping area with just a cash register, small pastry case (which just includes a few exemplary pastries -- the rest are in the back), and a wall of various types of bread. I didn't end up grabbing one of their breads, but I'll definitely have to make my way back for them; the harissa black sesame sourdough looked incredibly enticing, but I just, unfortunately, didn't have a need for a full loaf of bread at the time. However, I was in the mood for a sweet treat and decided to get a classic pain au chocolat. They don't have an indoor seating space, given their relatively barebones front-end, so I just ate my croissant as I walked home. It was a beautiful croissant, with a gorgeous lamination inside and nice glossy finish. It was a smidge too doughy for my taste, as I generally prefer really light and airy croissants, but it was still delicious.“

“the breakfast sliders are yummy and the sticky pretzel with chocolate inside is good not real sweet but just right❤️“

“I went to purchase a birthday cake for my daughter and I noticed how delicious the cookies looked. I also read on all the reviews how amazing their cookies are especially the snicker doodle. Alejandra who was simply a sweetheart, helped make suggestions/recommendations and she was so pleasant and helpful. I was so impressed with the customer service and the quality of the baked goods. I give them a 5 star if not 10! They are all very sweet and the cake and cookies are just amazing. I was very a very happy customer!“

“Such good macarons. The texture was just right and the flavor are so tasty. The strawberry reminded me if fresh strawberry ice cream. My wife loved the gingerbread and pumpkin spice. Will be ordering again!“

“The moment you step in, you’re immediately hit with the smell of fresh goods! Such a wide variety of nostalgic Hispanic treats like conchas and tres leches. Bread is fantastic and is amazing fresh. Definitely recommend to those in the area ❤️“

“We consider ourselves conesures of cupcakes. Traveled the US and abroad tasting cupcakes. These were the very worst. Customer service is terrible. Sprinkles, Georgetown, and Heaven Sent Cupcakery Cupcakes exceeds these by leaps and bounds and they all have EXCELLECT Customer service. Oh and their cupcakes are half the price. Sugar Vault is true to its name. The frosting like many have complained has no flavor and measures about a third of a cup in ratio to the cupcake and is unbarerably sweet. The cupcake lacked moisture and was a bit dense. The red velvet did not have a red velvet flavor. Oh and you can't go in to see what you are buying. This is the only bakery that will not allow you to enter even in small numbers rotating thru. Buyer beware...price far exceeds the value. $7 cupcakes, $16 cinnamon roll (haven't yet tried the cinnamon roll). Bought 2 red velvet cupcakes taste tested one and threw the frosting and other cupcake out.“

“There are some hard-working and talented ladies behind that window of beautiful deliciousness. And it shows! Everything was phenomenal. 100% worth the wait in the weekend rush, too! I had the chorizo, the rosemary-fig tart, and the peach-sesame kouign-amann. Life-changing. Every bite. After a bite of their kouign-amann, I threw away the (more expensive) quiche/pastry I'd grabbed from Eastern Market and replaced them with Souk's. Serious upgrade.“

“She's great for all of your needs when it comes to cooking“

“Ordered a three-tiered chocolate cake for my parents’ 30th anniversary party for 100 people - it was worth every penny! It was just the right level of rich, sweet, and smooth. The texture was perfect and it tased delicious. So many of our guests complimented the cake and asked where we bought it from. I’ll definitely buy from this location again!“

“My Cake Theory is a slice of dessert heaven tucked away in the heart of the city. From the moment you step in, you're greeted with the sweet aroma of freshly baked cakes and a quirky, Instagram-worthy ambiance. The cake is pure magic. It's like a warm hug in dessert form, oozing with gooey goodness that’ll leave you smiling for days.
But wait, it’s not just about the cakes-everything here is an edible masterpiece. Whether it's their artisanal pastries or the frothy caramel latte, each bite feels like a celebration. My Cake Theory is the spot to be.

“Bakery is excellent- the selection is huge - the breads soft and delicious. We come for the Tortas on Saturday mornings and they are always a treat. Service has been consistently fast and friendly. So glad they came to Bowie!“

“Timmy is just the best! I have ordered from him for years. Just recently I needed the best key lime pie and I got the best key lime pie!“

“Man oh man where do I begin. I'm a New Yorker but I spend some weekends in DC. I've had plenty of Call Your Mother bagels. I enjoy Bagels Etc. But Pop's just does it right. The scrambled eggs are fluffy and plentiful. The bacon is perfectly cooked and generously stacked. The pesto cream cheese is a delicious and unique add to any savory sandwich. The brown sugar cinnamon cream cheese (?) turns a plain bagel into a decadent mid-day treat. The bagels are a little less dense than a New York bagel, but still thicker than a Cali bagel. I could just go on and on but I went to this place with no expectations and left completely floored. I'm on a bus back to New York right now and I am thinking about how I will actually really miss their bacon egg and cheese with pesto. Anyways come here, spend money here, buy their merch, leave a tip, and have a great rest of your day.“

“We were visiting the National Harbor from Raleigh Nc and we paid them a visit. Hands down highy recommend. Customer service,appearance,Taste are all amazing. I was told you ship we will definitely be placing another order. If you have tried them go quickly.“

“Outstanding customer service. And to tell you the truth, would you believe? This place has been in business for over 30 years. Still looks the same. You remember when Doctor petcenter was downstairs? And our dogs would escape and run all over the place. Great place Worth every penny!!“

“This little shop is mighty, and its owner Catherine is so lovely! GBBO fans will be delighted that, yes, THIS is the place where you can find a cherry bakewell (#IYKYK). Be sure to ask if there are any savory offerings in the back - I recently had a terrific mushroom and spinach tart that convinces me that I should just buy whatever savory offering is on deck.I can't wait till afternoon tea service is available. I'll definitely be there.“

“My grandson and I go every weekend that we can to pick out a few treats. We know how wonderful their cakes are and luckily we had an excuse that it was my grandsons birthday so we were able to purchase one of their magnificent cakes. And we look forward to my upcoming birthday when we will get another one! The absolutely best cakes in town“

“This bakery is located in the historic Eastern market on Capitol Hill, Washington, DC. My favorite thing is the molasses ginger cookie, with no icing and I like them gooey in the middle. I asked for them that way and I get them that way. Their snickerdoodles are also good and they have a nice selection of breads. Not everything is baked on premise. The owner and the other workers are all very nice people.

Parking: They are very busy on the weekends. The whole market and parking gets more difficult but come on Tuesday through Friday and you'll have your pic of parking spaces. Everything is almost everything is metered.

Kid-friendliness: What's not? Kid friendly about a bakery

Wheelchair accessibility: There are accessible parking spaces“

“Amazing service. 10/10. Communication was very easy & the quality of the bread was so authentic. I will be returning anytime I am in the DC area. Thank you so much!“

“Just stopped in after a lot of morning walking. The service was perfect And friendly but the ice cream sandwich was amazing. I will absolutely be back and highly recommend them!“

“Friendly & amazing customer service, and delicious food and drinks. Thank you!“

“Great service. I ran in to get last-minute cupcakes (18), all they had, and the cupcakes had little character rings on them. They removed them and added a little icing, perfect! The prices are great as well and the cupcakes were delicious. I will be back!“

“(Translated by Google) The drink was good I ordered a dragon fruit mango frost but the straw or the straw was made of cardboard and when you drink it it does not rise(Original)La bebida estuvo bien pedí un dragónfruit mango frost pero el popote o la straw era de cartón y cuando le tomas no sube“

“Great bread most of all, but also, the support that I felt during this current government furlough. Thank you very much, Lyon! :)“

“Y’all, when I say everything is perfect everything is perfect 👌🏾 let me start by saying customer service is wonderful when I first walked in, I was greeted by a young man, he took my order and read me back everything I told him I wanted! I had got the two whitening dinner meal for me and my brother. I got the Fried whitening with double Mac and my brother got the bake beans with the casserole. When I say the fish was so delicious it was well seasoned and the Mac was delicious as well very cheesy it don’t taste like the Mac & cheese out of the box there somebody of these restaurants keep giving us.“

“We visited the Park Avenue location, and service was amazing. Lattes were the best!“

“Very friendly place.Go all the way down the road to the 2nd entrance. You'll see a fence and the parking lot to the left. There is some parking by the side of the building for maybe 2-3 trucks and some along the fence. Kind of tight parking lot. Park and ring door bell at shipping receiving door, if no one answers then call the number they'll tell you what door to back into once they open the garage doors. Back in with doors open. Someone will come out to give you seal and paperwork“
