Fine Sweet Shoppe is the bakery inside historic Eastern Market on Capitol Hill. They sell cakes, cookies, ice cream, coffee, sandwiches and so many other items. It's easy to get overwhelmed, but here's what I recommend: 1) Ice cream- it doesn't compare to nearby Jeni's, Captain Cookie or Moorenko's, but for the price and portion, it's perfect for kids. My toddler loves their strawberry ice cream. 2) Cakes- their chocolate cake is pretty good! 3) Tollhouse chocolate chip cookies- they are small, but a good snack. If you can avoid it, don't order their chocolate croissant. Truly, it's the worst I've had in the city.
I hate giving a bad review but, Yuck! Everything is too greasy. Muffins had a tough texture and yet were sticky. I threw away a brownie after 1 bite. The brownie had too much salt and texture was similar to the muffin. I didn't buy rugelach because they looked like candy instead of pastry. I gave one extra star for a very decent quiche crust. What happened to this place - did ownership change?
I got some cupcakes for my wife’s birthday here. They looked good, but we’re SO dry. Will not be back.
really love their chocolate croissants. love that the bakery has more of a no frills energy than most DC bakeries
The pastries are huge and super cute looking but everything was so dry and greasy! Honestly a let down. We got brownies and chocolate croissants.
