“Went here for the first time today and I fell in love. I highly recommend“

“Excellent food and the best chai!“

“I will start with this, I love Rose Ave.

I came in today at 10am and was deciding on a drink I wasn’t sure I would like because it might be too sweet. The cashier was genuinely kind and reassuring, and told me that if I didn’t like it, I could always change it. That made me feel comfortable trying something new.

Unfortunately, the drink did end up being too sweet for me, so I went back to the barista to ask if I could switch it to something else. The response I got was honestly kind of a bummer. She sighed loudly, exchanged dirty looks with another barista. She also tried to convince me the other drink would be even sweeter, which wasn’t even true. It made me feel embarrassed for asking, especially after being told it would be okay to change it.

She wouldn’t even look at me when I went back to pick it up and tell her thank you….

I still love this place and will continue to come back, but this experience was a big reminder that customer service matters just as much.“

“I love this place! The food is phenomenal! I can’t get over the tempeh burger!!!“

“No other bakery like Seylou. We travel in to the city every weekend to eat here. The staff is so kind and feels like an extension of our family. They’ve taken my child behind the scenes and shown him how grains are killed and bread is baked. I could not ask for a better community and diet staple.“

“Love love love Levain!

The cookies are always so delicious, it is so hard to not order all at the same time.
I often take the classic two-chip chocolate cookies, but I’ve also tried the oatmeal raisin, the chocolate walnut, and the caramel coconut chocolate ones.

They’re all absolutely delicious, and depending on my mood I’ll get different ones.

They have seasonal cookies too, lately it is the carrot cookie. Can’t wait to test it! I’ve also tried the gluten free chocolate walnut cookie, and it is also worth the hype.

The staff is pretty quick, it’s not particularly a seating cafe but it’s a nice little snack at the end of the day :)“

“Besides delicious pastries, the best part of Boulangerie Christophe is the staff! Super friendly and kind to everyone who walks through the door. The gourmet sandwiches are a huge hit for my 15-year-old son too.“

“We’ve always loved Baked & Wired’s goods, and we knew they would make the perfect cake for our wedding day. Of course, they delivered. Baked & Wired was very easy to work with and the cake was just right! Our guests loved it, and we can’t wait to eat the last slice on our one year anniversary!“

“Amazing experience. The food was clean, warm, incredibly delicious, and perfectly seasoned—everything was cooked just right. Hands down the best Ethiopian food I’ve ever had.

The service was outstanding: professional, kind, generous, and extremely attentive. I didn’t have to ask for anything—they anticipated every need. They truly went above and beyond and even gave me more food than I ordered. Highly recommend!“

“A chill little bakery with fantastic pastries, cookies and croissants, as well as quality coffee. Also ordered a cake for my husband's birthday and it was a major hit!“

“Highly recommended! Very delicious food, excellent service, and absolutely great place.“

“Any rating below a 5 is an outright joke. Best biscuit and gravy I’ve had by a mile. The biscuit and bacon sandwich is beyond amazing. I saw a review saying the bacon is to thick, are you nuts???? Keep that opinion to yourself because the thickens is perfect!!! Who sees thick bacon and says it’s too much? Weirdos that’s who.10 stars minimum“

“I love to try the best bakeries around the world and Bread Alley’s quality is definitely world class.

The harissa sourdough with black sesame crust was one of the best sourdoughs I’ve had in the US. Same for the almond croissant - insanely crunchy, buttery, not too sweet, with an almost custard like almond paste (devoured before we took a photo).“

“I ordered this cake for my wife’s 35th birthday and it absolutely exceeded every expectation! 🎂✨ The craftsmanship is incredible every detail is flawless, from the elegant monogram design inspired by Louis Vuitton to the adorable mini handbag and bow on top. It looked exactly like the photo, which is rare these days, and honestly looked even more stunning in person.

Not only was it a showstopper visually, but it tasted amazing as well. The quality, attention to detail, and overall presentation made it the perfect centerpiece for such a special celebration.

If you’re looking for a cake that will truly impress, this is it. Highly recommend DeeDee’s Delights professional, talented, and clearly passionate about their work. I’ll definitely be ordering again! 🎉👏“

“The cookies are so fresh and full of flavor. Also am a big fan of the coffee.“

“I can't believe that I have lived here for nearly 20 years, walked past this place many times, and just discovered it several weeks ago. WOW! The pastries and, cakes, muffins and croissants are excellent. Their homemade jams are wonderful. Their breads, quite yummy! I love their iced coffee , which has s a very subtle taste of cocoa. And, I am a very picky coffee snob. Service is sometimes a little chaotic, but the staff is super friendly. Weekend mornings are insanely busy- a reflection of how good they are. Amazing, spacious outdoor seating! LOVE this place.“

“Ummmmm, amazing cookies!!! Tried them for the first time, and was shockingly surprised! Will def. be buying some online, since I’m located in Ohio.“

“Not sure if they are under new ownership or changed their recipes but they have consistently had the freshest, tangiest sourdough loaves. Got one today and they were unable to slice it in store and it’s very dry and doesn’t have the usual sourdough texture. Bummer if this is indeed the new fresh baguette…“

“Awesome cookies and the staff rocks 🤘“

“Very beautiful area. The quiche was the best I’ve ever had! Very cozy place.“

“Really love their pastry and croissant. Cappuccinos are wonderfully made each morning. Frassier white chocolate cake is my favorite. Also tried the new grilled cheese for brunch - excellent.“

“I am thrilled to share my experience with Tango Pastry, a true gem in the world of pastries and delicious treats!

“Awesome pastries, bread and other baked goods. Very creative seasonal menu that uses fruit and veggies at the peak of their flavor. Love love love it!“

“The cinnamon rolls are so amazing. Tasted like the real (gluten) thing. I’m very picky with cinnamon rolls and I read other reviews so the expectation was high, but it exceeded my expectations. I was so happy to see the large menu and so many options“

“This place was an absolute gem during our week-long stay in DC. We visited it a whopping five times! We had such a great time, especially when we made a funny joke about breakfast for the next morning. 😂 Because we had already eaten it .“

“If you're looking for bakery perfection this is the place! Yum Yum order today.“

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

“Great time, our first time here. Definitely recommended. the pumpkins look great. Fun family day. Nice market.“

“Maman is hands down the best coffee shop in the entire DMV area! Their special coffee flavors are absolutely amazing, offering a unique experience with every sip. The pastries and cookies are equally incredible, fresh, and delicious every single time. The environment is cozy and welcoming, with beautifully decorated interiors that make you feel right at home. Whether you're there to work, relax, or catch up with friends, Maman's ambiance creates the perfect setting. I highly recommend stopping by—you won’t be disappointed!“

“Delicious food and coffee! Bakery items amazing! Cute area inside and outside!“

“Wonderful selection of bread and pastries! Absolutely worth a visit.“

“I went here for a last minute birthday cake run. They have a round cake and sheet cake available. My expectation was minimum due to the cake being a window cake, but I couldn't be any more wrong. The cake was delicious! The icing wasn't too sweet. The celebrant and guests loved it. The service was also very pleasant. Highly recommended!“

“These cupcakes are amazing. I strongly recommend. The flourless is delicious!“

“I wish I can give wholly sweet bake shop more than 5 stars. Seda, the owner and baker is beyond amazing and talented. We hired her for our daughter's Quinceañera to make a 3 tier cake and dessert table. She took time to listen to our vision and made it happened. It was absolutely beautiful and delicious. Highly recommended, I can't wait for our next event to work with her. Thank you so much Seda!!“

“I have been coming here for a couple of years and I'm always pleased with my experience. Good prices, great deals and friendly staff make shopping a here a pleasant trip everytime. I'd recommend this store to anyone who's interested in the above.“

“Súper delicia 😋 ☕️🍪🧁 muy higiénico ambiente agradable y amablemente atendido“

“Best hispanic bakery in the DMV
Order a Torta Cubana, it's literally enough for for 2. And a turkey ham Torta. Also pan dulce section is very big with a wide variety of pan dulce.
They have the bakery section and the restaurant section, service was fantastic but the lady in the restaurant is amazing, great customer service skills.“

“Went for the first time today - we got Whea-ite and Spinach Feta (that I couldn’t not take a loaf of after trying). I grabbed the last loaf of it and the place was busy, but service was fast and friendly! We’ll definitely be back!“

“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!“

“Rolling Sloane did an amazing job on my daughter’s mermaid birthday cake!! She did a beautiful purple, pink and blue glitter frosting with adorable sugar cookie shells around the side and a mermaid tail sugar cookie for the top. It was exactly what my daughter wanted! On top of that, the cake was so good and we all fought over the last piece! Highly recommend a cake from Rolling Sloane!“

“The atmosphere and service were great! Also nestled in a cute part of town. I think I would have loved if this place had a bathroom. There are so many drink options and you have the ability to sit-in and enjoy your treats/ drink, but without a bathroom, it’s difficult to give this place a 5 star review. I also wish the gf items would have been clearly separated like the vegan ones were. I felt like I had to struggle to find the items they had since it didn’t match the menu online. But super grateful they had something gf to offer. I’d love a gf biscuit/ scone to add to what you already offer + more macron flavors.“
