The cakes here are so good, I wouldn't get my cakes anywhere else. Fan favorite for sure! Their communication could be a tad better though. I've ordered from them twice and both times they would sometimes not respond, or the order would be slightly wrong. They fixed it every time, just something they could work on. More...

Amphora Bakery provided a gorgeous, classic cake for a wedding that our studio photographed a few weeks ago! Everyone praised the cake - from the beautiful decorating job, to the delicious taste of the cake inside. They provided a different flavor for each tier and all three looked great! More...

Generally it’s a nice place with good products. Today was so-so. We had Luke warm coffee, a soggy Napoleon and an almond croissant with hardly any filling at all. Additionally, the young lady waiting on us seemed very perturbed that we were bothering her with our order. More...

We were very happy with our 3-tiered wedding cake! We went into the Bakery a few months prior for a tasting and chose the exact cake we wanted. The wedding assistant was very helpful in explaining our options to us and coordinating the order. The cake was both beautiful AND delicious! More...

It’s really nice that this place has some seating to enjoy their deserts. Tried German chocolate cake, cookie with raspberry and a piece of baklava. There is pricing on anything except the drinks. All of the deserts and pastries are way too sweet. Taste is ok, just ok. Cakes look really nice! More...

My go-to spot for my daughter's birthday treats. Well worth it. I usually get a selection of their cake pops and my daughters and their friends usually love them. Solid place with nice people.

This is our favorite bakery in the local area. They have an amazing selection of scrumptious goodies. One of the best we've had is the chocolate pie. Absolutely divine.

We worked with Maria over at Amphora Bakery and she was amazing! She was very patient and professional when trying to design my wedding cake. She had very creative ideas and I was so happy with the final product. The cake tasting was the hardest part....they were all amazing!!!! More...

True artistry, both in aesthetics, and taste. Ordered a six pies, and 75 cookies for a work event. All awesome. One pie, their pie of the month, a cranberry cream something or other was one of the most amazing things I’ve ever tasted. Highly recommend.

Cute place! I saw a party upstairs making gingerbread houses, so it seems like this place allows large parties. The store had such beautiful cakes on display, and the whole place smelt so good it made my mouth water. The ham and cheese croissant used real cheddar cheese and was super buttery and flaky. I also tried the shortbread sugar cookie and the large apricot jam cookie. While both tasted good, and the apricot jam cookie had a nice interior, it seemed like both were baked a little too long (dry or slightly burnt on the outside). More...

I'm attaching a picture of our wedding cake, which was absolutely perfect! A lot of people came up to me and said that most wedding cakes they've had have not been very tasty, but our cake was not only beautiful but absolutely delicious! The design and texture and taste were simply phenomenal. Their customer service is fabulous and responses to my emails and phone calls were quick! Thank you Amphora Bakery for making our cake and our wedding vey special! More...

Amphora's did an excellent job on my husband’s groom’s cake for our wedding. Thanks to the wonders of Pinterest we had a lot of fun ideas for his cake, which when speaking to bakers in our search were unattainable or would be extremely expensive to make. We were getting disheartened and were ready to simply not have a groom’s cake-when we met with Amphora's. They were wonderful to work with. We showed them a picture of what we wanted and they were able to create an exact replica at a price we could afford. They even made the slight modifications we requested to make it our own. My husband got to have his grooms cake thanks to Amphora's! His cake was made to resemble a baseball base with a baseball glove on it and a ball in the glove. It turned out perfect. I would recommend them for any creative cake design needs! More...

I was beyond pleased with both the wedding cake and the grooms cake!! Both Maria Cholakis and Katie Metzbower were so wonderful and easy to work with from the cake tasting until right up wedding day. I was very back and forth when it came to the amount of additional sheet cake I wanted as well as the final design for the grooms cake and they were always so accommodating and flexible with my requests to make sure I was completely happy with the final result...which I was! Our wedding cake was STUNNING and tasted amazing and grooms cake was exactly how I wanted it to be for my husband and he loved it! Thank you, Amphora - we are excited to work with them again in the future! More...

We ordered our wedding cake here and it was spectacular. Flavorful, moist, beautiful ... perfection! A couple years later, we got an anniversary cake (smaller version of our wedding cake), and it was just as spectacular. Their staff was professional, helped me through not knowing any useful cake terminology, and generally pleasant to deal with. I'd highly recommend these folks for wedding cakes! More...

Amphora Bakery is a true gem. It is a treat to visit and admire the artistry that goes into the cookies, cakes, and sundry delights. When I arrived to pick up my cookie order, they were in the process of boxing them up. Instead of just leaving me waiting - which would be fine because it is enjoyable to watch the action in their kitchen - they offered me a cup of coffee and made sure I was comfortable. My order was ready in a minute and it was an act of willpower to not immediately enjoy one of our cookies with my complimentary coffee. I look forward to returning for the seasonal cookies in the weeks ahead! More...

Megan picked out two cupcakes, one chocolate, one vanilla, with this extraordinary frosting, for our wedding anniversary. I wish I had a picture ....we looked like we had just eaten the most amazing cupcake in the world with the frosting on our happy faces! Not only does Amphora have the best sweet treats in the metro DC area, they have this amazing space in Reston with fantastic music (real jazz, not the elevator variety) and cool chairs and tables for working or meeting with buddies. Love you guys. More...

The bakery is beautiful, clean, and creative with their designs. They accommodated us with a vegan cake! The bakery is nestled among other shops in the Herndon area. I thought it was small but once inside it is a two-story brick bakery with lovely chandeliers, quaint atmosphere for having a bite of lunch, and a loft where one can watch the bakers. I am very impressed with the bakery and their professional touch. The cakes are a slight bit pricey but for a special occasion it was doable. I recommend this bakery!? More...

Always love your displays of cakes in Herndon, pastries & more. Hard part is choosing what to have. Napoleons are yummy. Yesterday I was surprised & delighted with the Chinese New Year sugar cookies that came out of the kitchen. Erica's artistry & calligraphy was impressive hence I bought a set of the CNY cookies. They were delicious! More...

Our cake was delicious! The bakery was easy to work with and provided a free tasting. We chose a vanilla lemon buttercream cake, 2 tiers, with a simple mint green fondant ribbon. It was delivered on time and it was beautiful!! The bakery also provided items for the "All American Dessert Bar" (we used Amphora Catering for our dinner as well). Everything from cookies and brownies to chocolate dipped rice and personal pies. SO GOOD!! More...

Just had my daughters 8th birthday at the bakery today and the girls all loved it. They had so much fun decorating chefs hats, cupcakes and sugar cookies. My daughter was so excited to help with the baker to decorate her own birthday cake and our host was awesome. Brandon who is in charge of the parties was so easy to work with, very helpful and answered all my questions very fast. More...

Sorry it took me so long to write a review. I absolutely loved this place! They did our wedding cake a couple years ago and were so accommodating considering I had a very detailed pinterest post I was going off of and every time I look at our wedding pictures, I still love it. I also really do not like cake in general and we made two tiers raspberry preserves and one marble with chocolate buttercream. I actually loved the raspberry layers and was happy I could enjoy my own wedding cake! :) More...
