Alexandria Pastry Shop & Cafe   

Great pastries, muffins, and reasonably priced gourmet meals have been a given for years. This is not some corporate chain plopping down in the middle of our community. The Alexandria Pastry shop has always proven to be an involved partner and benefactor of this city while consistently shunning any spotlight on their achievements. As just one classic example of their quiet commitment to excellence, you should know the Alexandria Pastry Shop catered a quality game day meal from set-up to clan-up, at no charge, for the entire T. C. William Varsity Football team prior to every game in 2005 & 2006. Do the math...twenty games...over sixty young men per sitting...male adolescent appetites......that's impressive. Great cities are created by concerned and compassionate neighbors. Next time you go get a coffee, muffin, or cake think about the difference you can make by simply choosing where to spend your hard earned dollars. Those dollars just may immediately impact your own community and quality of life. . Choose involved proprietors and make a difference today!

I was very impressed by the helpful and quick staff even though the bakery was quite busy. The mango buttercream cake was absolutely delicious and so fresh! I am definately going to come back again and again!

If you want small readymade takeout pastries..they're not bad..BUT DO NOT ORDER A CAKE HERE, YOU WILL BE MIGHTY DISAPPOINTED! I ordered a 1/4 sheet strawberry shortcake for a Baby Welcome party, and was highly disappointed and aghast by the lack of decor on the cake..What kind of strawberry shortcake doesnt have strawberry decor on top?!! I could have done a better job on the decorating..they need to get out of the cake business! The service is very aloof and unwelcoming also.. I haven't been to alot of bakeries in the area, but I'll know not to go here again!! I'll give this place another 1-2 yrs, and I think they'll fold..
