This recently opened bakehouse in McLean offers breakfast sandwiches and a variety of freshly baked goods, such as donuts, croissants, and cookies. They serve coffee and latte drinks in a spacious, clean, minimal setting with high ceilings, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Parking validation is available in the nearby garage, which is convenient. Although the music was loud initially, it quickly softened, adding to the relaxing breakfast environment. Located close to the McLean Metro station, they also offer lunch items, cocktails, and mocktails on weekends.
The overall food quality was acceptable, though it tended to be mild in seasoning and lacked some elements that might make dishes more flavorful. The smoked salmon breakfast sandwich included a few capers but did not feature other seasonings. The breakfast platter looked appealing but did not stand out or impress us. The pistachio bun was satisfactory but less sweet than expected, while the pumpkin spice donut was enjoyable with its cinnamon and pumpkin spice filling. Given that it is a bakehouse, we anticipated a higher standard of baked goods, and our experience with the treats was somewhat underwhelming. The coffee was also mild, with a watered-down quality and subtle flavor profile lacking a strong body. Overall, the offerings may appeal to those who prefer lighter seasoning, though they did not meet our personal preferences.

Surprisingly amazing dishes are the ones below I would never think to get the turkey pesto but I’m glad I asked still Employee there what my favorite was because it’s the star. I always get it for breakfast which I love that they make it available first thing in the morning and don’t limit to lunch only only downside I can think of is the 8 AM opening time since I work at seven ideally cafés open at 6 AM.

We visited Sunday Morning Bakery last Sunday, and it was packed! It was hard to find a seat, but luckily, a super kind lady gave up her table for my friend and me (huge thanks to her — she was so nice! ).
For the pastries, we loved the croissant the most. We also tried the matcha croissant — the filling was delicious, not too sweet, and paired perfectly with the crispy, flaky layers. That’s a solid 10/10 from us! The tuna croissant salad was also amazing — another 10/10. If you’re a croissant fan, this is definitely the place to check out.
The strawberry jelly donut wasn’t really our taste. We liked the filling, but the donut texture wasn’t quite what we prefer.
As for the drinks, we were a bit disappointed. If we could suggest something — we’d love if the latte wasn’t pre-mixed. We prefer seeing that beautiful milk and espresso layer.
The staff looked super busy and working really hard, but we hope they can get a bit more help — especially for cleaning and customer service.

TL;DR: cute cafe space with yummy pastries
Stopped by here on a Tuesday afternoon, and it was nice and quiet while having several full tables. It ended up filling up quickly around 4:30PM.
They have an extensive menu or drinks, breakfast/lunch food, and a case full of baked goods.
FOOD/DRINK:
~Gingerbread latte (3/5): was a solid latte but I didn’t taste much gingerbread flavor. The little gingerbread person cookie then gave with it was a nice treat though
~Mushroom Tart (4.5/5): the pastry is so flaky and flavorful. Lamination was on point. The mushroom filling was earthy and flavorful.
~Hazelnut Croissant (3.9/5): Highly recommend eating it there. Took it togo, and the flakiness fell apart. Or put it in the air fryer/convection for a few minutes to crisp is back up. Filling has good Nutella flavor
~Sea salt chocolate chunk cookie (4.5/5): didn’t take a picture, but if you like thinner and chewier cookies, this thing was exactly that. If you don’t like that type of cookie, then this isn’t for you. That little punch of sea salt you get adds a nice punch at the end.
Overall, I would definitely come back for a meal and/or coffee date.

Really cute coffee shop! They’re going to get great foot traffic from the apartment buildings around and Mitre across the street.
The prices are pretty reasonable. The place is minimal and pretty. It gets very noisy. The acoustics make everything echo, so please note it’s not good for working. I was on a work call and they could hear everything. This spot is good to grab a coffee/pastry solo or with a friend, not a good work spot. I do think they need the coffee menu near the register. They didn’t have what I wanted and I had to keep moving to look at the menu again.
The avocado toast was really fresh and delicious. My coffee was solid. My friend really liked the breakfast sandwich, was her second time getting it! And I did get a pumpkin donut to go which I heard is amazing! Excited to try when I get home.
Overall really solid place!

I’m so glad to have Sunday Morning Bakehouse downstairs. It’s absolutely wonderful. The pastries like the Green Tea Matcha Croissant and the Raspberry Cream Tart are fantastic and staff is always friendly. I do wish they didn’t run out of my favorites so quickly and that they opened a bit earlier in the day but still all in out fantastic!

Glad to see they’ve opened a Sunday Morning in NoVa. This location is spacious and provides more seating than the one in Northern Bethesda!
All day menu items can get pricey, especially when you get the add-ons, but the food was tasty.
Avocado Toast – Sourdough was thick and had a slight crunch. What I really enjoyed was the combo of the olive oil, mashed avocado and sea salt. Simple in execution, but provided good flavor and balanced out with the fried egg.
Breakfast Sandwich – Pillowy brioche with a slight zing from the gochujang. Eggs were soft and bacon provided the necessary saltiness to this sandwich. Feel like it could do with a crunch factor like a crispy hash brown to round out the dish.
Cinnamon Roll – This is why I come here early on the weekends. Have it warmed in the cafe or at home and you’ll cut into a cloud-like dough that provides that melts in your mouth and offers the sweetness you expect from a cinnamon roll. Don’t know if they only make a small batch, but there is a limit to how many you can buy.

I stopped by this coffee shop for breakfast and had a good experience overall. The atmosphere was cozy, the food was decent, and the service was acceptable. That said, it didn’t quite match the hype I’d heard. It was enjoyable, but nothing that really stood out. Still a pleasant spot if you’re nearby.

2nd review: We came back for a weekend breakfast. The breakfast plate and the turkey pesto sandwich are both delicious, and the service is also great & timely. However, the utensils are not particularly clean in general, so I’ll keep the 4 stars rating for now as of Dec 2025.
1st review: We came here on Sunday afternoon and bought six pastries (e.g., almond croissant, matcha croissant, apple croissant, banana bread with chocolate chips, coffee cake?!). The pastries were all pretty good. The staff was a bit slow (they took a while to put a stamp on the box & assemble the box…) I believe they will get much more efficient after the store opens for a while. Would love to come back and check it out soon!

Such a lovely place for a sip or a quick bite.
The bakery is located on the first floor of a new office/ apartment building with no signs outside (yet).
They have a great selection of croissants, cookies, doughnuts and sandwiches.
The selection of hot drinks is interesting including a long list of hot and cold coffee options, Japanese teas with milk and hot chocolate.
I enjoyed an almond croissant that was crispy and had just the right amount of almond filling.
We visited on a Sunday morning and the clientele was very family friendly.
If you are an introvert and enjoy your quiet place, there is a single table for 2 on the way to the kitchen.
