“We’ve seen Panorama’s treats at our local weekend farmers market in Fairfax and have enjoyed everything we’ve tried so far. The setup is always excellent, the team is always nice, and the treats are always delicious! We are looking forward to trying their sourdough loaf next.“

“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 .“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“Best service, coffee and croissant in town 🥐“

“Sweet Dreams created fantastic delicious cupcakes for my daughter’s baby shower. All the guests complimented on how creative and tasty the cupcakes were. They were very moist and melted in your mouth. I let Karissa create the cupcakes in my color theme and she did a variation of icings and cakes. They were a huge success. I will certainly order cupcakes through Sweet dreams again..“

I appreciate the friendly staff and there willingness to help me. Beautiful job !!!5 star service!!! Thank you Tiffany’s Bakery Melvina Pearson and Family“

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

“This cute bakery has incredible baked goods. I had the spinach feta turnover and a slice of carrot cake. The turnover was stuffed with filling, and the pastry was flaky. The carrot cake was the best I've ever had. The cake was moist and well-spiced, and the cream cheese frosting was light and so delicious. The service was wonderful, too. I will be back!“

“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.“

“Located inside the Ronald Reagan building so you need to go through security to get there. Delicious cookies and ice cream that was perfect after a day at the National Children's Museum. This place is far more appropriate for kids tastes than offerings at the National Children's Museum next door.“

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

“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.

“My husband loved your gluten free Bundt cake!! It's hard finding a gluten free baked dessert that's any good, but you guys nailed it! Will definitely be stopping by each time we are in the area!“

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

“Came here for coffee and breakfast. I ordered bacon and eggs, wife ordered a croissant sandwich. Hers was better than mine. The small hash brown patties came soggy and almost undercooked. The eggs were fried nicely. The toast was supposed to be sourdough, but it was more like a thick cut of white bread and under toasted, probably because it's so thick. Bacon was nice. I had a cappuccino and it was acceptable, but not good enough to finish. This is a really clean, nice, professional coffee shop with a lot of working professionals stopping by. Good atmosphere and a solid go to spot.“

“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!“

“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.“

“This was the best coffee we had in DC. The drip coffee was solid, the vanilla latte and mocha were also excellent. Great staff and the owner was very nice. Best coffee in DC!“

“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 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“

“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.“

“Very nice little cafe with excellent coffee and food. The breakfast sandwich hit the spot, hot and freshly made with scrambled eggs, cheddar, spinach and soft, not too heavy ciabatta bread. The staff were super friendly, and as an animal lover I was happy to see Chez Lily is dog friendly too. I saw a cute little pug come in while I was there.“

“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!“

“The flavor and presentation of chai matched the service and atmosphere: beyond expectations. This is a cozy spot with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The barista crafted a chai to suit my preferences (it's an inhouse blend!) I didn't get any nibbles but they looked delicious.“

“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.“

“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“

“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!“

“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....“

“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!“

“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!“

“They have a gluten free bagel that was pretty good! Not a big fluffy bagel but thr flavor was good. I asked if it was toasted on the same spot as the normal bagels and she told me it's toasted in a bag. The chai was alright, a little sweet for my taste.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free bagel“

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