Bakeries near Oxon Hill

“Since relocating from NYC, I wasn't able to find any Sweet Potatoe Pies in the DMV that could measure up to the Pies I would purchase from Whimpies, a family owned bakery in Harlem (nolonger in business).
That is, until I stumbled upon "Uncle Paul's Pies" two years ago.
Can I say "Scrumptious". Definitely a customer for life....“

“I contacted Ms Raven the day before due to my original stylist getting sick. She not only accommodated me but she slayed my locs, did not double book me, and I was in and out as planned! My hair was beautiful for my birthday party and I received sooo many compliments!“

“Real nice place, grabbed a cuppa coffee and a pastry. Delicious. One thing I noticed about the Washington DC area is people were either super friendly and super nice or…. not so much. Unfortunately, at this location the people were not so friendly. But coffee was good and pastry was excellent!“

“I didn't know where to have a breakfast and I found this place, it seemed hidden and it has a homely atmosphere. The food is delicious and bread is good and fresh. I love this place !“

“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.“
