Bakeries near Mount Rainier

“Went there this past weekend and tried them for the first time!!! Was greeted soon as I walked in. A tough bag lady that was waiting for her order said I had to try the seafood Mac and cheese and she wasn’t wrong. 🔥🔥🔥🔥 The good brother running the store also let me try a few other sides. All were amazing so I had to choose but I wanted to try all of them. I got the vegan drumettes, with the vegan ribs, seafood Mac and cheese and the collard greens. All tasted AMAZING!!!! I also ordered the mint tea and the ginger tea. Amazing. This was the Newark, De location on Main Street. I’ll definitely be back. Thanks for hospitality and the great food.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Cookies are pretty decent, but their operation is slow as heck… don’t even think about going on a Saturday or Sunday or around any holiday if you hate lines and waiting. I mean this should be a cookie factory line, what are we doing!! I guess Georgetown cupcakes and other places in Georgetown have the same problem but still... They should also make the lemon cookie a permanent cookie! Their best cookie in my opinion, but it is seasonal.“

“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 .“

“Super adorable family-owned bakery -- they also have a great drink menu and sell some packaged Asian snacks and ice cream too. Everything I've ever ordered here has been delicious but some favorites include: their cream bun (which they fill with cream right when you order it so that it's as fresh as possible and doesn't make the bread soggy), their black sesame mochi bread, and red bean and mochi bread.“

“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).“

“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…“

“Great cakes and bread, everything was delicious!“

“I had an absolutely wonderful experience at DeeDee Delights! She was so friendly, welcoming, and helpful that I was nearly left speechless.

My brother and his wife are newlyweds who are soon welcoming their first child. With many family members far away, I wanted them to have the best gender reveal possible—and that meant a cake. I wasn’t sure what could be done on such short notice, but DeeDee made it happen! She gave me the most cute and beautiful cake for us to celebrate the upcoming arrival of our bundle of joy. She truly made our day :).“

“By far our FAVORITE cookies!! All the flavors we’ve tried are AMAZING!! They are huge, not super sweet, soft & delicious! Took them to our last tailgate and the college kids ate 8 monster cookies!! Loved them! They were a hit!!“

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

“I normally don't write reviews, but the red velvet cake with cheesecake frosting is DELICIOUS!!! Highly recommend 10/10 ,it was nice and moist and not super sweet like others!! The customer service was great. Will definitely be back!!“

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

“The best croissants I’ve ever had. They are very special and perfect to share with loved ones.“

“I loved my first time experiencing the original salt pretzel. They were warm upon pickup. I ate one in the car, and the other about an hour later. Deliciousness! May be trouble for me because it’s so close to home!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Berry blue was great to work with the cookies they made for my sons birthday were exactly what we wanted.“

“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“

“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!“

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

“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 .“

“Amazing bakery. All the cookies I had were super high quality even after I ate them a day later in the microwave. These cookies are very tall, with a warm soft center and crunchy exterior. I got the regular chocolate chip, which has a lot of chocolate chips. I also got the rocky road and Caramel coconut chocolate chip cookie which were both also great. High price but even higher quality and value. Highly recommend this place if you’re in the area.“

“We had a great lunch! Highly recommended! 😋😋😋“

“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!“

“Awesome service and food.“

“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 didn't know this cute little shop existed until needed a cake (quickly!) and saw the great reviews. Boy did they deliver!! With just 3 days notice, they made a beautiful cake that was delicious. I can't wait to try more things from this shop!“

“Wonderful job and our girls birthday party and was hit of the day! Thank you so much!“

“This is a wonderful hidden gem! Do not let the location dissuade you. Delicious and super fresh!!“

“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!“

“She makes very tasty, amazingly beautiful cakes. Try her. .... you will not be disappointed!“

“This place is top tier. I’ve been to many shops and non have the feel and vibe of this place. Galactic Sweets & Treats for the win. You gotta come in and see it to believe it. Trust me. Top quality buds, happy hour pricing and you can win prizes. They reward loyalty too y’all. Who else doing all this? I’ll wait…..“

“I’ve been buying my bread here since moving into the area and I’ve always had very positive interactions with staff. Their treats are very good, I recommend the polish apple slices and brownies and I’ve not had a sandwich there yet that I didn’t enjoy. Prices are extremely reasonable for the quality. Glad to have this in my backyard.“

“Absolutely amazing, tasty, and impressive! Not only would I order from them again — I keep trying to think of reasons to order again soon.

I found them online and placed a last-minute cake order for something a bit complicated, something other bakers had said they couldn’t do (or would need more time to pull off). I was very lucky they had a little extra time in their schedule before the weekend and agreed to take the order.
Since I had never used them before and it wasn’t a referral, I was a little nervous (I even almost bought backup cupcakes from Wegmans — I’m so glad I didn’t!). But when the cake arrived, I was so impressed. They did an even better job than I’d hoped — they really nailed Mimikyu! And the cake tasted great, too. The birthday guests were impressed, my kid was thrilled, and honestly? So was I.

I'm really glad I found them online.“

“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!“

“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!“
