27 Best Bakeries in Arlington

“Consistently delicious! Normally, I just go for the cookies, cronuts, and petit fours. This time we tried all things savory. We were invited to a German Christmas Market Themed party — very specific I know… Since it was a potluck, we decided to make currywurst. Heidelberg’s brats for the recipe were so good. We also grabbed their huge soft pretzel (yum) and their curry spread (double yum). Whether you go sweet or savory, you can’t go wrong. Love this bakery!“

“Overall good food. You can tell it’s a favorite for people because of the crowd. Service was very welcoming, with a very casual atmosphere. You can tell people go for the food. I’ve had Ethiopian food a couple of times and do believe their food is better. My wife got awaze tibs, while I got the special kitfo, a tar tar style dish. My wife’s was wonderful and I’m sure mine was good as well, but I know tar tar is not for me. Bottom line, if you’re interested in trying Ethiopian food, this would be a great experience.“

“Just found the place today. This is, without exaggeration or hyperbole, the best chicken pot pie I have ever had in my entire life. And THEN we had the Tart Cherry with flaky crust for dessert - if it’s not the best I’ve ever had, it’s in the top 3. WOW.“

“Awesome service and food.“

“Great location. Worth the price! Friendly staff! Delicious food and drinks. Clean and welcoming establishment.“

“I was in Arlington an hour early for an appointment and I was hungry. I walked into and Ma Sha Allah!!!!“

“Let's be clear. The bad reviews is because Karoline Leavitt ordered donuts from here on her birthday. That's it. That's really why they are leaving these reviews. This company is a small family & veteran owned business and the donuts are some of the best in town. Enjoy!“

“This is the best quality of cake I’ve ever had in Arlington! I bought some stuff today around 9:45 PM and I was wondering what happens to all the left over stuff and I looked on TooGoodToGo but didn’t find you guys. I wish you don’t through away the left over stuff and pay back some discount to the community! Some people need to try your best food but can’t afford it! If you please consider this!“

“This is one of my favorite bakeries in the area. I mean truth be told, I live in Bowie Maryland and travel to Arlington specifically for this bakery. If you live in the DMV, then you know how significant this is.

Excellent selection and the quality, taste are incredible.“

“Village Sweets did an amazing job on cupcakes and a large cookie kit for my daughter’s birthday. They were so fast with communication, even after I changed my mind a couple times. They were so accommodating! And everything was beautiful and delicious. The cookie kit was a huge hit! They even opened the shop early so I could pick everything up on time. Amazing. Would buy again! Would recommend to a friend!“

“Jackson who is the mgr. is why I'm giving a 5 star service. I ordered a slice of mocha cake &a slice of green tea cake. I discovered the girl didn't give me the green tea cake, instead a different cake. When I called about it Jackson was very gracious &accomodating &offered 2 green tea cakes at no charge. The cakes and pastries are fresh & delicious &I will continue to visit often.“

“The coffee is really delicious, and the pastries are too!
I ordered an iced latte with tiramisu syrup, and it was spectacular!
The croissant with a cookie [crookie] is an interesting combo, but pretty tasty. It's a bit sweet, so if you're not a huge fan of overly sweet things, I wouldn't recommend ordering it. I had to separate the cookie from the filled croissant because I think it was a bit too much for me (it was super good btw).
The service in general was good, and the outdoor benches are very nice
the air conditioner was too cold for me“

“Great service, friendly staff, deliciously flavorful food, reasonable prices. A great place for lunch. And a great place to watch the World Cup! Bucket of five beers for $25 and special price menu items just for the tournament 😋“

“Stumbled upon yesterday when I was picking up from Thai Select. I walked in and almost fell over with the beauty of this pastry/coffee shop. I only had time enough to purchase a S'mores cookie. OH MY WORD! I'll be BACK.“

“This is a cute coffee shop with a great assortment of pastries that look so good. The croissant was super flaky soft and tasted so good. My mocha with hazelnut syrup was sweet. Just how I like them. I don’t usually drink coffee and I’m from Washington state so they are usually strong over there and here it was less strong and had a real chocolate flavor with some chocolate bits at the bottom it tasted so real.“

“They have amazing treats, especially their icecream stuffed croissants 🥐 wow try one they are so soooooo good!!“

“Absolutely amazing! The strawberry mousse cheesecake from Pastries by Randolph was incredible. It was light, creamy, and full of fresh strawberry flavor, with the perfect balance of sweetness. The texture was smooth and the presentation was beautiful. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality dessert.“

“Friendly staff…good food and coffee!“

“On check in the place was really busy with busloads of kids also waiting for their rooms. At one point I asked the front desk staff if we would be on a floor with the teens as our last experience at a Marriott in the area was not good and I didn’t want a repeat of the same sort of experience. That couldn’t be guaranteed as the kids were pretty much located on every floor. Nothing against kids or teens at all, we had our own teenager and a baby with us. Front desk staff was apologetic for the delay in check in and gave us a discount on parking. We didn’t ask for it, but the gesture was greatly appreciated. The hotel was quiet and the only issue we found was that the breakfast area was quite busy due to lots of hungry teens in the morning, all of whom I should add were very polite and respectful. I would consider staying here again on future trips.“

“I keep teasing these guys to start making funnel cakes, I bet if this chain ever picked up doing funnel cakes The demand for their products would go through the roof, but no one wants to listen!!!!

FUNNEL CAKES FUNNEL CAKES WE WANT FUNNEL CAKES!!!!!!!!!!“

“I think this is an acquired taste for sure! Just because I don’t personally think the cookies are worth $3.50-$4 doesn’t mean others won’t! I’m giving 4 stars because I think the cookies are definitely overpriced. 🍪 The staff are kind, the place is clean, and the ambiance is great. I think this type of business could flourish if they locked in a better cookie dough quality vs what tastes like a mass produced one!“

“Wow!! They just opened up in the Fashion Centre at Pentagon City. I got one fresh out of the oven, hot but not too hot dripping with frosting. What a great treat!“

“I have been eating these bagels for years and no other bagels can compare with them.“

“I was pleasantly surprised how amazing these cookies are ..you do have to wait a bit at first seemed confusing to get to since there’s no vivid sign up top. We got the classic and the cookies were hot and ready so take a little bit of time maybe less than five minutes for them to cool but so good and worth it.“

“The best Saltenas in the area! We have tried all 13 Bolivian restaurants in the general area and this Pan American bakery is the best in flavor- not too spicy, not too sweet.
The grande cheese Empanadas are wonderful (especially if you stuff them with chicken salad when you get home- a totally southern American add to these South American delicacies!)
Creators of one of my all-time favorite sandwiches!!! Yes- their simpler house chicken sandwich- the seasoned Saltena meat on a bun with all the fixins’ makes an amazing meal!
In summer the cinnamon ice cream is delicious and the cakes, pastries and soups are always great.“

“Very friendly staff & an excellent sandwich! It was my first visit, I would highly recommend it.“

“I’ve been to this cafe so many times and I always get excited to try their new items. Everything they add to the menu has a new taste to it that you can’t find it anywhere else. The spinach and corn shakshuka was incredible. Everything is always perfect. I love this place!“
