50 Best Bakeries near Walker Mill

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Visited a second time after my first visit over a year ago when everything was out of stock.

A Redditor’s comment describing the Kouign amann bringing tears to their eyes was the pull. And it really is quite fantastic: flaky, soft layers, a crunchy top helped along by the crystallized sugar, instead of the usual syrupy finish I’ve found at other bakeries in the city. It’s not too sweet, and has a slight saltiness from the butter.

It’s a little smaller, more akin to a kouignette, and comes to around $5.80 with taxes, which is on the pricier side.“

“Great cakes and bread, everything was delicious!“

“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! 🎉👏“

“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 mushroom turnover and raspberry scone here are absolutely delicious! I also loved the chai. I want to come back and try the sandwiches and more of the pastries! I was really happy with the portions and prices, too. It's an adorable little shop with a couple of tables both inside and outside.“

“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!“

“Stopped in for a mocha breve. It was exceptionally good. I didn't have to ask for them to make is half sweet or anything. They use the perfect amount of chocolate. The half and half was steamed perfectly and not overdone. If I had known this coffee shop was here a year ago I would have come to is more. It's right beside Prose and Politics.

I also purchased the brown butter financiers which also were gluten free. They were delicious and even kid approved. Highly recommend them for coffee and pastries.

As far as seating, it's very minimalist. Not a place I'd want to come hang out. Maybe grab the coffee and find more comfortable seating outside. Otherwise, way above average coffee and pastries.“

“Randomly stumbled across this great restaurant with amazing food and service. You can tell this food is make with love and that’s what I like. If you’re getting breakfast I recommend getting the French toast platter, also if you don’t eat pork this is a great place that has turkey alternatives.“

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

“Their Little Devils are beloved by my family. We've been going here for years just to have them. I also have their Rasberry Chocolate Cake for my birthday almost every year“

“delicious-quick-friendly!“

“Iverson Cookies IS The Great Cookie! In fact the greatest cookie! It’s one of the best I’ve ever had. Every cookie is perfectly balanced between crunchiness and chewiness. It’s truly the best of both worlds and a one of a kind cookie. The prices are fair and it’s impossible to just eat ONE! The flavor and texture is always consistent and never disappoints. Great customer service and cookies are even greater!“

“This place was amazing! Thank you to Aster (the owner family) and the chef for this amazing recommendation and preparation. Right amount of taste, protein, and calories!
Tibs kinche (beef with cracked wheat)

Also gave me great recommendations for opportunities and connections!

Can’t wait to come back when I visit again!“

“Last Saturday morning, my husband and I jumped in the car at 6:35 AM and drove to the Catania Bakery at 1404 North Capitol Street, NW in DC. We'd just found out his grandfather had worked there when he registered for the WWII draft in 1942 (he was a 60 year old Sicilian baker at the time). We are both half Sicilian American and know what real Sicilian American baked goods taste like, .

Anyway, I looked them up on the internet when we found the draft regis. card and fully expected to find zip. To my amazement the bakery is still there and still family owned, and still using the same recipe to make the bread. They switched to selling wholesale to restaurants and stores several decades ago, but are still open to the general public from 7:30 AM to noon on Saturdays. So, we hightailed it down there.

The owner personally sells the baked goods at a counter from the turn of the 1900's at the front of the old bakery. We bought a big sample of goodies to try them out -
- 4 big loaves of Italian bread (which my mom said was the same taste and texture as the bread made by her Sicilian grandfather in his bakery in Corona, NY from the 1920's to the 1950's)
- 1 loaf of Sicilian Easter bread (seasonal)
- 9 five-inch long, par-baked sfogliatelle (you finish baking them at home for 30 minutes in a 350F oven)
- and 6 bags of cookies (each bag contained about 20-24 good sized cookies). 1 bag each of anise almond biscotti, pignola cookies, pistachio cookies, coconut macaroons, anise cookies with anise icing, lemon cookies with lemon icing

I'm thrilled to report that everything was incredibly delicious. The Real Deal. Unbelievable. My 91 year old 1st generation Sicilian American mom, who is the ultimate judge on whether Sicilian baked goods are legit, gave them her stamp of approval, which is so rare it's ridiculous. We're definitely going back, a lot. At that hour of the morning on a Sat. the trip to the bakery took just 25 minutes or less. We parked right on the side street, tho we could have aslo parked right in front on N. Capitol St. Parking was no problem. At 7:30 there wasn't a line, so we got in right away. The storefront and the inside of the bakery are old and careworn, but the baked goods are perfection. You can't even find the real thing on Long Island anymore. The Sicilian bakeries up there have closed, sold to new owners, or cheaped out - they all use cheap ingredients, but NOT THIS PLACE. It's still family owned, flavors are pure, the bread crusty on the outside and soft on the inside, and the pastries don't leave an oil slick on the roof of your mouth.

If you want to experience real Sicilian baked goods the way they used to be made by the first 2 generations who to came to America, then take a trip down there and get ready to be amazed.“

“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.“

“Micah is very talented and a pleasure to talk/work with. Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I was looking for a spot to chill, enjoy coffee, and get some work done on my laptop. Thankfully, I stumbled upon this place. The walnut, chocolate chip cookie was fire 🔥🍪, the orange blossom latte was on point, and the music selection fit the vibe perfectly. Dennis kindly welcomed me from behind the counter as a first time visitor/guest and made me feel welcomed & shared great recommendations.“

“Me encantan desde años mis favoritos“

“Delicious cookies. The Dubai chocolate cookie is outstanding!“

“The Pound Cakes are known for their rich, buttery flavor, moist texture, and perfectly balanced sweetness—delivering that classic, comforting taste with every bite. Whether you’re indulging in a signature favorite like the beloved 7-Up pound cake or exploring new flavor creations, every cake is baked with premium ingredients and a commitment to quality you can taste. What sets Joella’s pound cakes apart is the love poured into each one. From mixing to baking to presentation, every detail matters. These cakes aren’t just made—they’re thoughtfully created to bring people together, spark joy, and turn everyday moments into something special.“

“Clements did our wedding cake 44 years ago, and cakes since then for our children's graduations. Two years ago they did our daughter's wedding cake as well as cannoli and apple pie. And now they will do a cake for our daughter's baby shower. The best in town! Nick and Genine V.“

“It’s a wonderful experience! The food, drink, and dessert are all prefect. Moreover, there is a great thing I must need to share: Although I fall down suddenly in the store, which is basically my own fault, the manager comes to kindly check if I’m okay super quickly. Additionally, he professionally asked if I need any help and offer some towel and some bread to comfort me. That’s the kindest and most professional manager I’ve ever met in America!“

“I had a great experience at this breakfast coffee shop. From the moment I walked in, the customer service stood out. The staff genuinely cares about making sure you have a good experience, and they take the time to listen to your order and make it just right.

What I really appreciated was how personal the service felt. If you’re not sure what to order, they’re more than happy to give suggestions and help you find something you’ll love. You can tell they take pride in the quality of their food and coffee, and it shows in the final product.

The atmosphere is welcoming, the service is thoughtful, and the food and coffee are excellent. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to come back again and again. Highly recommend stopping by if you want a great breakfast and a team that truly cares about their customers.“

“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....“

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

“Blown away by the quality of the pastries at this bakery. I was looking to make a quick stop before going to my in laws, so I went there and bought pastries, I was expecting a high bill and boom for 8 pastries I paid about $9 ! Let me tell you how shocked I was! I thought it was a prank or a joke.

Its super affordable , staff was nice and helpful. The only downside is that a box is $3 which is a lot . But i truly enjoyed the pastries with my family.

Seems like one can order birthday cakes there too. They accept payment by phones too . Parking is great since it’s in a shopping center. My favorite pastries was a kind of big donut sandwich with custard in the middle.“

“I’ve been here a few times and it’s always been a pleasure. The outstanding pastries keep my sweet tooth pleased and this young man jaemin i believe he’s the barista is always a great person to chat with while i’m getting snacks. This is definitely a must try for anyone in the area.“

“I just love the vibe of the store“

“Gluten free cake. Friendly staff.“
