Pastry Xpo Cafe

Pastry Xpo has an excellent selection of delicious desserts/pastries. The location is directly across from the Target parking garage in the Mosaic district, so very easy to park and walk over. The space is very clean and welcoming. There are tables for seating inside. We were greeted by staff behind the counter as soon as we walked in. I knew I wanted an eclair and a latte, but was blown away by the sheer number of pastries, cakes and cookies. They even have several varieties of eclairs. We decided to get a Boston cream eclair, Nutella eclair and dubai chocolate truffle along with a pair of lattes (pistachio and regular). Everything was really tasty and the portion size was perfect. The Boston cream eclair reminded me of a similar pastry from my favorite bakery growing up as a kid in Maine. Great core memory unlocked on my birthday. Pistachio latte was perfect. The staff were all friendly and patient while we tried to choose from so many delightful desserts. We will definitely be back. Thank you for a great experience!

We came here to get some pastries because it was my husband's birthday. We were very impressed!!! The fast attentive service by the employees was 5 stars!!! The place was busy but everything was flowing fast and we were never waiting for any of our food. Very nice variety of pastries, cookies, cakes and coffee. Small let down because they don't have doughnuts and kids love donuts. The coffee was very good that I didn't even need to add sugar. They serve the pastries in ceramic plates if you choose to eat in. A definite must to warmly enjoy your food. I will definitely make this place my regular spot when I'm in the area.

We visited this place to have coffee and dessert and I was very surprised, this place looks small and not elegant at all, but what do you think? They have such a variety of desserts that you can't decide. The coffee is delicious, wow, an intense, delicious flavor and smell. I enjoyed it a lot with that dessert, what can I say, I had my little paradise with that coffee and dessert 🤣🤣. The service is excellent, the place is small and clean, nothing elegant, but you can have such a nice moment, highly recommended!

Needed a cake for a retirement party. After searching a few places, I landed on Pastry Xpo Cafe. After looking at the online reviews we took a chance on placing an order. We were able to place an online order within 24 hours of when we needed the cake. The store followed up with us to ensure the order, and confirm pick up dates/time. Upon arrival, I was able quickly locate free public parking. Arrived at the store, and was blown away by the wide selection of cakes, pies, pastries. The item we ordered was moist, flavorful and truly worth every single penny we paid for this cake. If you’re in need of a cake, sweet treat please give Pastry Xpo a chance. Enjoy!

The store was full of customers because it was popular. I went there for the first time and it was delicious! I think I'll visit again. But It was hard to sit and eat because it was noisy.

absolutely insane variety of desserts, almost couldn't choose, wanted to try them all. i went with alexandria, cherry ricotta, and tiramisu. cherry ricotta was my ultimate favorite, the flavor of tart cherry melts in your mouth.

Pastry Xpo Cafe is a gem! I tried the pistachio date cookie with a latte and it was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is warm and inviting and the staff are friendly and welcoming. Great location, amazing treats, and a wonderful experience from start to finish.

Although it was a bit pricy (3 cakes, 1 sandwich, 1 drink for $50) it was worth it. Passed by this once and was thinking about it since. Super glad I got to come in today because as soon as I walked in I was blown away. There are so many different desserts and pastries, I was happy to see the different pastries that included pistachio since that’s trending right now! I saw people getting lunch, getting coffee and chatting, studying, etc. I will definitely come again to try their ‘White Forest’ cake!

This place is so cute! Such a nice spot,next time I'll plan so I have time to sit and enjoy a coffee. The server was very helpful and helped me find exactly what I needed. I was in search of gluten free and vegan treats as a thankyou for some friends. And they were sooo tasty. I got a 6 pack of the chocolate pastries for my gluten free friend and a pastacio tart for my vegan friend will definitely be back! I forgot to take pic! I'll do better next time!

I love their cakes and muffins! Their "Alexandria" cake is so so good, as well as the white forest cake that is super moist and delicate with a delicious, airy, and not-too-sweet cream. I didn't care for the random bits of fruit cocktail baked into the sponge and I wish the white chocolate flavor was stronger, but I still enjoyed it. Their muffins are some of the best muffins I've ever had - moist, cake-like, and flavorful. I'd pass on the chocolate croissant - it was hard, not flaky, and the filling was bitter. Nonetheless, I'm excited to try their other beautiful desserts!

I've been going to XPO for several years now, and after the last two, I had to finally leave a review. This place is such a gem! The decor gives off a Parisian vibe--charming, cozy, and perfect for catching up with a friend or enjoying a quiet moment with coffee and a pastry. Speaking of pastries, they're amazing. I'm a big fan of their eclairs, mango coconut cheesecake, fruit tarts--you really can't go wrong. They also serve great coffee with a solid variety of options. I usually go for an Americano, but their specialty drinks like the Queen Bee, pistachio latte, and tiramisu coffee are definitely worth trying. Bonus: if you have a high caffeine tolerance like me, this place is perfect--the drinks are strong and satisfying. A lovely little spot tucked away in Mosaic. Highly recommend!

Cute pastry shop. They have a display case with several types of pastries and cakes and they also serve speciality drinks as well. I got the pistachio latte which was good- a little strong on the espresso. And the blueberry apple tart which was nice. Service was good and it wasn't super busy on a Saturday afternoon. There is a decent amount of seating inside. Both items came out to $16

Great Italian pastry and coffee shop right in the Mosaic area. Friendly and familial staff. There is a decent amount of seating which makes it a good place to sit and chat while you have your coffee. Prices are a little on the high side - I paid $6 for a croissant which is more than many other spots nearby.

[November 2024] A friend of mine has been raving about this place. We were in the area celebrating her birthday and stopped by after dinner. We got there right before closing so I took my cupcake to go. The next day, I tried a lick of icing (good) and a bite of the cupcake (decent -- my husband ate the rest, so I assume it was fine.) I prefer a more moist cupcake and this wasn't it. Perhaps it was already a day old. Not sure, but I'd give it another try if I'm ever back in the area. __ I eat. @f.hux I thrift. @DCthriftish

Ventured here after picking up my juices from Pressed. A cute little coffee pastry shop hidden down a side street within the Mosaic District. I love this shopping center- so many options. This coffee shop was clean, and full of yummy treats in the pastry case. I wanted to try everything but settled for a coffee and Almond Croissant. My coffee was delicious...not too sweet! Tasted more coffee flavor with just a hint of pistachio. As for my croissant- I'll have to update my review after I actually try it. lol after I make my way to the gym. The cashier was welcoming and friendly. Very patient with me and my indecisiveness. I will definitely come back here for a coffee fix if I'm ever in the area. From cookie, cupcakes to macaroons or even a whole cake- this place offers an excellent variety of tasty treats! Can't wait to venture back for a cheat treat! Happy Yelping!

Surveying the Mosaic District yielded this pastry cafe, which had an impressive spread. I wasn't all about the drinks, but I struggled to limit myself to two pastries. I exceeded that limit to add some hummus and pita chips, which are not pastries but were of high quality. I'll have more hummus than chips, but that lemony-flavored goodness with fresh chickpeas on top will be fine with something else. My German chocolate cake was high on coconut and the chocolate hazelnut dome quite nutty. Both were rich, neither was excessively sweet. The price was quite high, but clearly the quality was as well.

We came here on a chilly, rainy day. This has been our go-to spot after lunch/dinner at mosaic. The staff was very friendly and patient when we were ordering. Since everything is behind the counter (unlike my other go-to bakeries), it's harder to decide what I want!! This time, everything I ordered was different from what I usually order from here. I went a little nuts and ordered the pistachio latte with oat milk, a slice of carrot cake and a crème brûlée...my favorite dessert. I think it's safe to say this is when my love for pistachio lattes started....it was just a dreamy drink. The carrot cake was good...it was a switch from the cupcakes I usually get from here. The crème brûlée was good as well, not the best I've ever had. Would I return? Of course, when I'm in the area!!!

We ordered a Vanilla Grand Marnier Buche de Noel for Christmas dinner this year. It looked gorgeous and we were excited to give it a try. It was a little on the expensive side, $64.00 approx, but we've had good things from there in the past and we were looking forward to it. It was completely inedible, after one bite we simply threw I in the trash, such disappointment from a wonderful bakery. I just let it go and forgot about it. Today I was reminded about it so I gave the bakery a call. I have never been responded to with such hostility. The owner was rude condescending, that's not how to treat your customers.

After 4 years since my original review, they did not improve at all. However, they are very conveniently located, I still go there occasionally. 1. Service: 2 stars at best. If service and having positive interaction is important for you to enjoy a cake or a tart, this place is NOT for you. They are terrible, always rushing despite no one else behind me, mean in tone and body language is obvious to let you know that they are not happy to have me. I hate this place for that. 2. Bakery items: 4 stars. There is literally nothing I hadn't tried before. - Peach and blueberry tart: very good - eclairs: hit and miss. sometimes good and sometimes terrible. I think it is because they sell the previous day items and it gets sour over time and if you happen to buy that time, you get screwed. - opera cake: decent 3. Tea selection is limited and not the best kind. All in all, it is a coin toss every time to come here, you may get a nicer item or you may get an old item and hate it here. It all depends on your luck. No consistency.

Pastry Xpo is a French-Lebanese dessert shop that specializes in a variety of unique and diverse desserts in the Mosaic District. You pick your pastries and they are packaged by a cashier behind the cases. There are plenty of tables to dine in the shop or it's a great place for take out. The desserts are packaged well and there's a plethora of options to please a wide range of palates. The white forest cake and Alexandria were decadent and not too sweet. My parents - who aren't fans of desserts - enjoyed them. The tiramisu was a bit dry because of the cocoa powder but was a good size and had a nice coffee flavor. The desserts were a bit expensive but they photograph well and the ambiance inside of the shop makes for a good experience. I'd go back to try a few more options.

Pastry Xpo is my mango tart and Chocolate Sea Salt w/ Caramel filling and icing Cupcake, Go-To craving desert bakery and Cafe. I used to study here and I've ate here since they opened years ago. I shop at Target in Mosaic District and on my way out or whenever aim nearby and have money and sweet tooth cravings, I walk right in here at Pastry Xpo. They have a loyalty membership, but I don't know if they have points rewarding system anymore?? Wi-Fi here is FREE ; so is the 15 minute maximum parallel two parking spaces, but are very limited and usually occupied. The tarts are divine and the entire order to take glass display Buffett counter has so many choices. I've tried their truffle it's amazing as well! I like the seating dine-in space and layout. It's spacious, but not enough space to bring my kids City Jogger strollers through. If they added a rich chocolate and coffee and cappuccino cake layer here to order I'd probably be here once or twice a week. They're one of the best bakeries here in Falls Church/ Merrifield Fairfax NoVA parameters.

Recently got some cupcakes and coffee from pastry xpo and was not disappointed. The coffee was delicious and fresh. The cupcakes were moist and flavorful. Decor of the cupcakes was cute which added a great flare to the delicious cupcake! Didn't have the chance to try some of the other dessert options but definitely want to go back to get some more treats. Parking available in the mosaic area as well as a few street parking options right in front if youre lucky.

I have been coming to Pastry Xpo for years with mom. It's our favorite place to get cupcakes! The favors are so good. The cake is so fluffy and moist and the frosting is not too sweet or buttery, but perfect! I love to get the Sea Salt Caramel cupcake, Red Velvet, and Strawberry! I like how Pastry Xpo has so many flavors, something for everyone! Not only do they have cupcakes, but they also have many other pastries that look so good! Inside of Pastry Xpo is a modern style cafe that has many tables. Service is quick and the employees are friendly. Love this place!

I've been coming to Pastry Xpo for years and it stays consistent with the quality of pastries as well as great customer service! I always love grabbing an eclair and a fruit tart as my go-tos. Sometimes I try a new cupcake and they are always so good! There always seems to be enough seating every time I come here too even if there are many customers. I guess they are taking things to go mostly. Overall highly recommend!

Come here often as this is our to go to favorite place for desserts and tea/coffee! The service crew always polite and helpful. The lights could use a little dimming, but otherwise the seating arrangement is good.

The pumpkin tart was delicious, and the crème brûlée was good. It was a cute spot for a coffee date.

Coconut Mango Cheesecake at Pastry Xpo Café in Mosaic District is a tropical dream. The white chocolate cheesecake base melts in your mouth, topped with tangy red currant, mango mousse, and a passion fruit glaze--pure artistry. The Lebanese owner is a master of desserts, crafting each treat to perfection. Warm ambiance and top-tier service make every visit feel special. A must-try that delights from first bite to last!

Awesome bakery in Mosaic. We stopped by in the afternoon after walking around the area just to take a look but the baked goods looked so good that we had to order something to try. We took forever to decide but the staff was super helpful with recommendations and helping us navigate around our allergies. We ended up getting the pistachio croissant and it was delicious. Super flaky and buttery with a delicious pistachio filling. Will definitely be back

Great pastry shop with full-sized cakes, cake slices and pastries, cupcakes, sandwiches, coffee, tea, and more. Staff are friendly as well.

Amazing pastry shop. On a recent business trip, I stopped by and purchased a "Lord Baltimore" and an Anise cookie. There was so much I wanted to try! Friendly and quick service. I visited in the evening and they still had a good selection available to choose from. Would definitely go back. I live nowhere near this place but I'll be craving that Lord Baltimore until I can get back!

When you walk in you see cute cafe tables, there's quaint music playing, and glass windows with all sorts of beautiful desserts. Their fresh pastries are always amazing! You just have to get there early before they sell out. My absolute favorite is the Nutella twist. Their lattes and coffee are also quite good. During our first visit, they forgot one coffee and gave us a hot latte instead of an iced, which we requested. However, ever since that first visit they've gotten the orders correct. My boyfriend and I love their tiramisu specialty drink. It's sort of meant to be like an espresso milkshake. Many people seem to expect it to be maybe an iced blended coffee and are surprised by the texture given the lady fingers, but keep in mind it's more of a dessert milkshake type of drink. I wish they offered it in a much bigger size, I'd gladly pay more for a bigger cup! One day I'll definitely want to try their breakfast meals like the shakshuka or get hummus to take home. Otherwise, we are happy customers of Pastry Xpo!

I really can't imagine how I didn't finish my review about Pastry Xpo! This place gained and earned my trust in between a large selection of pastry shops! A fierce competition ! And even that it's 25-30 minutes away from me they still won my number one choice for pastry and specifically for Gifts! Whenever I visit someone, and the choice is for taking a dessert or something sweet then the winner is PASTRY XPO !!! In fact that's not the only way you can enjoy them at all! It's a very nice cafe at the heart of Mosiac ! One of a kind place that you can go just to enjoy a nice dessert with coffee! Hungry? Oh they got you as well! With very delicious menu! Not just with savory pastries like ham & Swiss pastry but with also sandwiches, salads , soups and dishes! I'm trying the Ratatouille today! Mmmmm , it's wonderful! Now let's talk OPTIONS & VARIETIES!! * Full Cakes? Available !! But every pastry shop has that! But not as delicious! * Gateaux ?? That's what I think that makes them UNIQUE! No pastry shop in the whole area has that amount of Gateaux and if they do, not as tasty not even close in quality and creativity!! * Kids Cake Pops? More yummy and valuable than the Starbucks one! * Cup Cakes?? Well! The ones you have been eating before everywhere isn't actually CupCake! These ones are actually the CupCake!!! Enjoy! Now let's talk CUSTOMER SERVICE! which as we all know can take any business up in the sky or put it down to deep s.... No need to say that on a dessert review lol ! You know what I mean! The customer service here actually take your way high up beyond the sky! People who treat you with smile! Understand your needs! Know what a gift should look like! They don't get surprised and shocked by special request and instead they listen proactively, ask questions , explain what they can do and what they can't and why? And finally they escalate to manager or owner to make sure of their final answer and give you hope! I say that because I had multiple requests for events and occasions and I was always happy ! If the owner is there , Ms Samar then you're very lucky! You will know why when you meet her! :) .... Very nice lady! Her character is in engraved in her business and that's why I love this place because this place is as wonderful and generous as her! The Cafe itself is nice and it's very nice place to meet friends and family! They use illy coffee and they make wonderful Espresso drinks hot or iced! Try the Tiramisu for a wonderful unique iced drink! Or the nitro cold brew! Go give it a try and as usual ( if you're a follower ;) ) and don't forget to .... Pray for me ;)

Pastry Xpo has the best Cup cakes and pastry in town. Their food is good as well. Kitchen is open till 3:00 pm . Service is really good also. It's a cozy place which gets really crowded ; they should enforce time limit on how long people can occupy the tables. Majority of people come and get one thing and stay for hours using WiFi. The store is losing business because of these people. Lots of people come in and want to sit but there is no room.

The raspberry chocolate cake is so good!! One note, I wish there was a bit more raspberry... but I am a huge raspberry fan so maybe that's just me.

I went back for the pistachio cake (Alexandria) for my dad's birthday. I planned to take to Nj and the guy talked me through options of pickup refrigeration, freezing, storing, etc. he was super nice in the phone and gave great tips. When I picked up the cake, I picked up 3 cupcakes for a small dinner party that evening. I had just purchase a fancy Christmas serving plate and cupcakes would show it off. Rocky road cupcake: Amazing!!!! it looked so innocent like a chocolate cupcake with white icing. Nooooo it was a burst of flavor! The peanut flavor came through a as well as the marshmallow. Dulce de Leche cupcake: Also good. Creamy and crunchy combo was nice. Cake part was good. Loved the big dollop of dulce de le he in the middle. Eggnog cupcake: Very good but more ordinary. Would definitely get cupcakes here again and try new flavors.

I was immediately greeted by a man with a smile and welcome in. He was so friendly and personable. The inside is very welcoming and cozy. The pastry cases are amazing and the desserts are decadent. I also got an iced vanilla oatmilk latte and it was delicious. This is my first time here and I will definitely be back!

This place has a very cozy and relaxing atmosphere. The display of assorted of pastries, cupcakes, macarons, and cake slices as well as whole cakes were overwhelming. I wanted to try everything but I only made 3 selections. The tiramisu was very good. The apple turnover was delicious and love the buttery crust. It would be better if it was heated and served with ice cream. The Alexandria was a little too sweet but still tasty. They also served assorted beverages as well. The staff was friendly and helpful. Go check it out.

This was my first visit. It's a cute little place; very clean and plenty of seating. I ordered a turkey pesto sandwich with potato chips. It was good but not worth $15. It was quite small with not much turkey (mostly bread) and just a sprinkling of broken chips on the side. I also had a chocolate chip pistachio cookie. It was also good but not worth $5. The workers are not very friendly and rarely smiled.

Stumbled upon this bakery in the Mosaic District, and found a lot of great pastries. The lady was not that friendly and was scolding the other employee a little too loud. Nonetheless, we were happy with the selection of food we got for $30- fruit tart, pistachio éclair, macaroon, and chai latte. Happy Eats

I will make any and every excuse to swing by Pastry Xpo. From the cupcakes to all the pastries - super yum! Just gazing at the glass display cases can make anyone's day just that much better. I don't think we have had a bad dessert here yet and often leave with a box of spares for home. The tables are a comfortable place to chat with friends and enjoy a sweet treat. One of our favorite places!

All the desserts and goodies displayed all look sooo good. My friend and I shared a cheesecake with raspberry and cherry and something else, and it definitely looked better than it tasted. The flavor was a bit artificial and was very strong unlike what we expected for a cheesecake and there just not enough cheesecake. I think the other stuff looked good, and I'd be willing to come back to try them all. I love the chairs and cafe vibes. It was so comfy.

Outstanding/delicious soujouk sandwich, and super apple/almond pastry. Plus robust cappuccino, and great service. Yay!

We had great lattes and wonderful Napoleon and scone. It was a great place to hangout, and enjoy the caffeine.

Incredible pastry shop in the heart of the Mosaic District! The owners are extremely kind and friendly, and the coffee and pastries were absolutely delightful. The store is clean with a peaceful vibe. Highly recommend Pastry Xpo -- Make sure you get the zatar croissant!

Came here on a weekend afternoon to pick up some pastries, there are so many to choose from! A wide variety of cupcakes, cake slices, tarts, pastries, everything. I ended up getting: - two slices of tiramisu: really awesome strong coffee flavor but the cream was heavy as I'm pretty sure it wasn't made with mascarpone, which is what the cream is supposed to be made of - pear chocolate espresso tart: never seen this combination on a tart before and thus was intrigued. It's a tad sweet but the flavor is good, the combination of pear and chocolate espresso is awesome. - brookie (cookie combined with brownie): super moist, light, tasty! Not overly sweet which I appreciate. - fruit tart: such a pile of fruit on it, as there were strawberries, pineapple, kiwi, blueberries, blackberry, raspberry. The custard was just okay and the crust was good and sturdy. My only gripe is that everything is super pricey here. The brookie was $4.50 pre-tax, and everything else was about $7 pre-tax. The 5 pastries above came out to be about $34 post-tax which is a lot!

They were so easy to work with! I filled out the online form for a cake order and they called me back the next day. It is simple to pick up and pay at pickup. The tiramisu cake is delicious, and they wrote a message nicely on a piece of chocolate as requested. My only comment is that the rum and cream were a little unequally distributed; some slices were soaked and others were dry, some slices had a lot of cream around the edge and some had a normal amount. I will be coming back! I am really looking forward to trying some of their cakes.

This past Sunday we visited 4 Sisters at Mosaic in Merryfield and after lunch wanted some dessert so after walking around the outdoor fair, visited Pastry XPO for some delicious fresh pastries, tea, coffee and a latte. Normally packed, it was quiet so we were able to get our orders in before the 3 pm cutoff (staff shortage). Great service and we had an enjoyable family visit.

Pastry galore with lots of decadent sweet treats - try the Chocolate Pear tart! While the Expresso Truffle Souffle was oozing with rich molten ganache, the pear tart was more balanced as the fruit paired well with the decadent chocolate and shortbread crust. Most of the pastries are made daily, some are fresher than others. It can be a bit overwhelming to choose! The portions are small but big enough to share with someone - but not enough for a group.

I am in awe of the selection. Loved walking in and being bombarded with yumminess. The rose water cupcake had just the right amount of rose water and the frosting was seriously delicious. The white chocolate butterfly was super cute as well. The chocolate sable, on the other hand, was meh. Dry AF. I pulled the bottom off and just ate the top with the middle crème and it was passable. I may return.

I went in a couple weeks ago on a Thursday afternoon. There weren't that many customers (maybe about 2 other parties) so I wouldn't worry about a crowd during covid. Unfortunately due to covid there's no dine-in option but you can always order takeout -- which we did. We ordered two eclairs I think one was Boston cream and the other Nutella, and some macaroons. The two workers there were friendly and prompt (though their voices were very similar and with masks on, I couldn't tell who was speaking haha) and the pastries were fine as well! I think for the portion/size of the pastries it's a bit overpriced but they taste good so I guess it's worth a try! I do wanna come back to try their cakes but probably won't be getting more pastries next time I visit! Overall a good experience though! :-)

Pastry Xpo is one of the best in NOVA. They serve European style pastries that are not overly sweet. If I only rate their bakery products and various pastries, I would give them 5 stars. My complaint is about the price of their breakfast items. I haven't ordered their omelette breakfast sandwich for a while. I know it's expensive and last time I ordered, it cost more than $10. Today I was shocked to see my bill for an omelette breakfast sandwich come to more than $16. The sandwich was not that special and didn't even have the mushroom and peppers as shown on the menu. I understand mosaic is a pricy area but $16 for an omelette breakfast sandwich is just too much. Won't come here again for food except for their pastries.

They told us three times in 5 minutes that they were about to close (aka skiddadle people!) - the 3rd time it was to say we are now CLOSED while we were seated and then just turned off part of the lights. There were still a few people in there. Maybe give the warning earlier??! I got the message the first time thanks and was totally wrapping up. I get it, you wanna get out of there and be done as an employee but that was really unnecessary. Also makes you think that staff wont clean anything when closing if they are verbally shoving everyone out, and just leave the place themselves right after.

In a quiet corner of Mosaic, Pastry Xpo is a Middle Eastern / French bakery with a large assortment of delicious pastries, great espresso drinks, and ample comfortable seating. Linger over a cappuccino and sweet while you engage in quiet conversation or check your emails at this urban oasis.

A small patisserie in the Mosaic district,and I have visited it a few times in the past year to satisfy my sweet cravings. Quite a lot of varieties and I have always ordered carry out as I definitely can't finish one pastry in a single go. Black Forest and the trio chocolate terrine are a couple of our favourites. One star less for the pricing which is higher even for the Mosaic district standards.

I have gotten cupcakes for Mother's Day and Father's Day from here for years and other birthdays! They are great, however, they really recently hiked their prices up to 5-6 dollars a cupcake which is the reason for the four stars.
