Artsy bakery & coffeehouse with big cupcakes & espresso
"Georgetown’s locals-favorite coffee shop and bakery dishes out colossal cupcakes, among other baked goods. Widely known as one of the very best cupcake spots in the city, the bakers at Baked & Wired swirl fresh strawberries into the strawberry cupcake and top the cinnamon-laced, Texas sheetcake cupcake with rich chocolate pecan frosting while it is still warm. The lines can get long, but kind service and the view of the glass dome-covered confections lined up on the Carrera marble bar help. A Baked Joint, its sister cafe, has been open for ten years and serves plenty of pastries, famous biscuits, goat cheese-studded foccacia, and loaded breakfast sandwiches in Mount Vernon Triangle as well." - Tierney Plumb
"Next up in Georgetown is a stop by this beloved bakery that’s been around since 2001. While Martell stocked up on sweets inside, Rosenthal mingles with a group of ladies out front and bonds over the fact one is from Brooklyn and he’s from Queens. Martell comes out with a lemon ginger cookie, the s’mores-like OMG bar, and of course, a cupcake. “I’m not a cupcake person, but these were so moist and delicious,” says Rosenthal." - Tierney Plumb
"Baked & Wired makes the biggest cupcakes in Georgetown. The best? Maybe not. While the classic DC shop has some pretty cool ideas (the lemon blueberry Smurfette sounds great on paper), the flavors don’t show up as boldly—or at all in certain cupcakes like the carrot cake. Still, the bakery and cafe is a nice place to sneak off to, grab a coffee, and read a book along the patio by the C&O Canal—if you’re free during the day, because they’re only open from 9am-4pm during the week, and 6pm on Saturdays." - Tristiaña Hinton
"Georgetown Cupcake may have the diehard reality TV fans, but Baked & Wired serves some of the best and biggest cupcakes around. There’s also a counter full of other baked goods as well as espresso, tea, and coffee. Pickup and delivery is available through online ordering." - Tierney Plumb, Missy Frederick, Eater Staff
"Represented by Teresa Velazquez, who won Pastry Chef or Baker of the Year, Baked and Wired / A Baked Joint was recognized for its pastry and baking excellence." - Tierney Plumb
