The 5 Best Bakeries In Annandale 2024

"Shilla is an Annandale OG. This bakery has been around since 1999, and despite the rise of new competitors, its loyal customers keep coming back for pan-Asian treats like mini bam manju, twist donuts, and green tea chiffon cakes. Every regular has their favorite pastry, and that includes us—we never leave without a mochi donut. They’re the best thing on the menu: fluffy, stuffed with sweet milk cream, and so deliciously sweet that even traffic on I-395 doesn’t seem so bad after a bite. The space itself is pretty small, so stick to takeout. You'll want a little treat after navigating the endless sea of brake lights on the way home, anyway." - omnia saed
