I don’t know if it was management issue or overworked bakers. I placed the order for child’s 1st birthday cake, discussed the design over the email ( with pictures). Got charged, dropped the topper. Called to confirm order, only to find out that baker “forgot” to put order when we went to pick up the cake. Unprofessional in my opinion.
The manager did provide “some” cake, but party was delayed by over an hour. Amphora made our wedding cake. They even made cake for my older child’s first birthday, but with recent experience don’t think I’ll be trusting them with an important order again!!

Maria at Amphora helped me design my dream cake for my wedding and she delivered! She was so helpful through the whole process and went above and beyond for us. From the start when we did our wedding cake tasting, everyone was kind and professional. Our cake was absolutely delicious and so beautiful. I highly recommend Amphora for any type of cake!!

I ordered the candy cane mocha. Drink was great but it seemed more like a regular mocha, no peppermint at all. Atmosphere was great and service was good, a little chaotic but they got the job done. If in town again id give them another shot.

The bakery items themselves are great, but, I've been here twice and both times the employees have been quite rude or irritated if I ask a question about a bakery item

I've ordered cakes from here several times for events ranging from weddings to birthday parties. They always turn out well, and guests always comment how good they are! I highly recommend this bakery to everyone.

Person working the counter. Seemed a little bothered to be helping someone. Even though the place was empty at 1pm. Napoleon was fantastic. So were the Strawberry Shortcake and the Carrot cake. The cupcakes were just ok. A little dry.

We visited because it was highly rated in an article about pie. We ordered a pie, lemon tart, berry cake, 2 cupcakes, and a cookie. The cupcake frosting was terrible (0 of 5 people liked it), everything else was just ok. The lady behind the counter was unnecessarily stressed and unfriendly.

They did an absolutely fantastic job on my retirement cake. The custom space design was a hit during the reception. The cake was sooo delicious. Thank goodness I still have some leftover.

This was my first time visiting Amphora Bakery, and my interaction with Maria, the owner, was very pleasant. She is both professional and kind. The atmosphere of the bakery is cozy, and I was impressed by their selection of cakes, which is not commonly found in most bakeries. Amphora Bakery is definitely a gem in the Herndon area. Since my visit, whenever someone in my circle mentions needing a bakery or cake, I always recommend they check out Amphora Bakery.
Something has changed with the recipes. We purchased blondies, magic bars and hamantaschen and they all lacked in sugar. Also the blondies used to be very light like cake. Very disappointed because this was our go to Bakery…

I used to go to Amphora, Herndon for Lemon Meringue pies. They were great. Something changed (not sure, Chef?, reciper??) but they were not good anymore. I’ve tried a couple times since, but same thing. It has been awhile, so I’m going to go back and try again. But if the pie isn’t wonderful like it used to be, then I hope to find someplace else. The desserts look fantastic, but the taste has been very disappointing.

I visited this location for coffee and to have some retreats. Unfortunately, my experience was negatively impacted by the woman at the counter, who was not welcoming and displayed a disrespectful attitude. This left me and my family feeling very uncomfortable.

This bakery made our daughter’s birthday so easy and special. My daughter wanted a rainbow unicorn theme. They did AMAZING on the cake. Our guests were raving on how good it tasted. I’ve seen others reviews of dry cake but I strongly disagree. Our cake was rich, moist, and a great balance of flavors. Don’t mind the front of the cake I bumped the cake getting it out of the box hence why it’s smudged on the front.
Always a pleasure to shop there.
