The breakfast sandwiches are the best but I would call ahead so you don't have to wait for them. The fresh baked breads are delicious as well as the desserts and pastries .

Autty Crosby

Great place for random homemade breads , awesome breakfast sandwiches , and people watching

Aron Gold

Beloved breakfast sandwiches , though I find them too salty. Best (Starbucks brand) coffee in Shirlington, paired with a biscotti and al fresco dining is perfection!

Lauren Yesko

Breakfast sandwiches are amazing - but they only serve them until 10am on weekends bc they use carlyles kitchen. Also, during the weekday mornings, they open Carlyle for seating for bb customers.Love!

Type away to the smells of fresh bread being baked at this Arlington spot. Extra seating during morning hours is available in adjoining sister restaurant Carlyle . Read more

It's really all great, but top 3 picks are willingnoham breakfast sandwich , two raisin pecan bread and sticky bun . Service is outstanding and fast.

Joe Z

The best place in Shirlington for a quick, quality meal. The area is full of sit-down restaurants , but you can buy a sandwich here and eat it at their (short ) window countertop.

Got some muffins and a cookie ... even hours later, both were still fresh and tasted great!!! The waiting area at the bakery counter is kinda small, so they are relatively quick

The lunch box is a great value . A ridiculously good sandwich , bottle of water, a side of chips or pasta salad and a cookie . You can’t go wrong! Read more

Allison Kasic

So many good options here. The bacon cheddar scones might be my favorite.

Amanda McCormick

The Carlyle next door reserves some tables and booths for customers from Best Buns if you want somewhere to sit while you eat.

Maggie MacG

Such an awesome bakery . Try a lemon blueberry muffin for breakfast or a caprese sandwich for lunch .

Michael Proffitt

The Jen's Rising breakfast sandwich was delicious. Looking forward to trying their burger in the near future.

Mark Tegethoff

Cannot go wrong with the egg sandwiches at breakfast . My personal choice is the Rising Sun Croissantwich

Jason Runyan

The Willing Noham might be the best breakfast sandwich ever made. Do yourself a favor and get one right now.

Rachel P

Love all their different varieties of bread and their cookies are great too!

Reagan Barbosa

David's Drumroll & Jen's Croissant were both tasty breakfast sandwiches . Willing-No-Ham was too salty. Wasn't impressed with their loaves of bread ; Great Harvest has much better specialty breads .

W Frankenstein

Chicken salad sandwich is fantastic. Really. If the bread on any of the sandwiches is too soft, they will make your sandwich on a bread of your choice. The baguette is fan

Sarah Skarda

Best sticky buns ever! I also love the chicken salad sandwich with watercress ....delish! ????

Cyrus M

Ozzie's ham and salami sandwich , lobster bisque , and the chocolate expresso cookie are all AMAZING!

Sophie Y.

Their cupcakes are heavenly too. Call ahead and they can reserve for you before they run out, especially on the weekends!

Stephen White

Breakfast sandwiches are spectacular!

Erin Rath

Long line , but the food is worth the wait. Croissant sandwich was nice and greasy and flavorful. A bit disappointed they serve Starbucks rather than a local roast.

Laura S

Chocolate cupcake w/ coconut frosting is best cupcake in DC area! Chicken salad sandwich & apple monkey bread also amazing. You pretty much can't go wrong here.

Dan Rapela

There's a reason the line is so long on weekend mornings. It's worth the wait. Try the Rene's Egg & Cheese breakfast sandwich .

Thuy-Linh Nguyen

Apple monkey bread was amazing. Mango chicken salad was also very satisfying.

John Welch

I asked for whole wheat bagel . Got home, cut it open.....not whole wheat . Helper that morning seems aloof as did the other helpers

Eddie Salce

The breakfast sandwiches are the best I’ve had.

jennifer moss kincaid

i love the mango chicken pecan salad soo much. cupcakes here are definitely bigger & better than the ones down the street at cakelove.

Athena

If there’s a line , wait! It’s so worth it!

David Willmore

The crab and corn chowder is delicious and filling

Alex K.

Outstanding breakfast sandwiches .

Denise Chaykun

The dog biscuits here are my dogs' favorites!

Matt Dicker

Forget DC Cupcakes , the cupcakes here are the best kept secret in the area.

Phoebe Michelle

The cupcakes are amazing! But they only make limited batches so buy them between 1030a-3p daily!

Dewana Mana

Fresh baked bread !!!!! & Starbucks coffee . Nuff said.

Reserve your reclining seat in advance. The new chairs take up a lot of space. Therefore, shows sell out more frequently and it can be hard to get several seats next to each once you arrive. - Jen S
