Save the walk! Not sure location is still open. Tried to place event order online, through calls during business hours & by text. No response.

Had mild expectations but unfortunately it is not a good bakery. My wife and I ordered cafe au lait, an almond croissant and a cinnamon raisin. This was arguably the worst croissant I've ever had - it was not flaky and had a dough filling inside it. See picture. The cafe au lait was had a burnt taste. Would not recommend.
The establishment has parking outside and there's plenty of seating available inside with a small patio setup outside.

Was not impressed. The one positive is the free parking; however, I don’t need to go back. Service was ok but got one of the orders wrong. I get that happens but just adds to my disappointment. The environment is casual, with seating in and outside. We ordered an ice tea, a house brew (got an iced coffee) a butter croissant, a chocolate almond croissant, and a zatar croissant. Did not finish one of the croissants. They were cold and lacked any flavor.

Not the greatest cup of coffee and definitely not the friendliest people.

Quick paced ordering for delicious pastries, cakes, coffee and more. Limited parking, but street parking available in neighborhood streets. Very friendly staff, clean atmosphere. There has always been available seating during my visits.

Highly recommend the salmon toast.

A hidden gem. This place is great. The coffee and breakfast sandwiches are awesome. Prices are very reasonable considering it’s close to old town Alexandria. I bought a ham and Swiss croissant and an iced coffee, cost me $6 which is awesome because anywhere else I’m spending double.
