Anyone craving something genuinely fresh and made-to-order should find their way here—this is where you go when you want a baker who still cares about getting it right.

11412 Washington Plaza W

bakery
777 6th St, NW
Someone working through their morning emails needs a corner table here, where the pastries are actual sustenance and the coffee keeps showing up without asking. Good for the person who treats breakfast like a real meal.
