Amazing bread and customer service always! They always have fresh bread when I go! The ladies there already know us and they're nice!

Castro's Bakery is located in the Potomac Festival shopping mall, and they have another location in Falls Church. This Latin bakery offers various specialty cakes, cupcakes, and pastries. We were looking through their window to see if we could items in their bakery case, and one friendly staff member, who was cleaning up shop, encouraged us to come in to take our time to see if there is anything we would like to get. So sweet! We picked up a few pastries and were on our way! I'd love to try their fresh fruit cakes on the next visit! Great service, and plenty of parking in the shared lot! +friendly service +located in the Potomac Festival shopping mall +plenty of parking in shared lot read more

My review is particularly for the tres leches cake. I tried out a slice before buying the cake. The slice on its own is so delicious and soaked in milky goodness. Which led me to buy their whole tres leches cake. After eating the cake, I realized that the cake wasn't soaked in the milk mixture very well... It felt dry in most parts. Didn't feel like the same as the sliced version at all. Please soak the cake well otherwise it's useless to call it "tres leches" cake when the milk mixture is near to non existent. Giving three stars because staff is really nice and helpful but I don't think I'll be returning as I'm looking for a bakery that makes the best tres leches cake. read more

Went inside for a last-minute order of cakes. The ones available were tres leches and a fruitcake, which I ended up getting one of each along with a designs. They took my order and had me in-and-out within 20 minutes. I definitely would order again (ahead of time) read more

I ordered a tres leches cake & it came on a cafeteria TRAY. Absolutely ridiculous & ugly. Very upset. I do not recommend. read more

Purchased a millefeuille cake (pastel de milhojas in Spanish) for about $110, received nothing but stomach aches and complaints from the guests. This pastry is not supposed to have anywhere near this much crème and have this few puffy layers, because as the name implies, it's supposed to have 1,000 layers of the puff pastry, which is divided into 3 main layers each with a crème in between. As seen in the pictures, the crème was about 70% of the cake (when it shouldn't be more than 40% of the cake). You're welcome to google this cake/ pastry and compare it yourselves, but I can't believe I spent over $100 to purchase straight vanilla crème. Save your money and time and find a different bakery. read more

Overall I loved the cake. I did make a few changes to the cake like make it round and smaller and leave some details out. I think overall they did pretty good with the color! This is a 3 Leches cake and it tasted amazing. All of my guest enjoyed the cake and asked where I bought it! The strawberries are a bit odd shaped but they make a great attempt to make them. The side of the cake was a bit harder to design considering the type of cake it was and the size. They did really well replicating my reference! The service was pretty fast including the pick up. read more

I went in on a Thursday to place an order for a cake for Saturday. They said they could do it but the heart shape spiked the price up to $120 so i was expecting to get the cake I wanted. They set the pickup time to be 5:30pm on Saturday. I get there on time and I ended up having to wait 30 minutes for them to finish it up. The cake did not look as high quality as I expected. The pink was not vibrant enough. It did not come with any sprinkles. We ended up buying some pearls from the grocery store to put on the cake and make it look better. I just feel like I was overcharged for what I got. read more

I was looking for a last minute birthday cake for a birthday party being held the following day. I stopped by Castro's and they mentioned they did not have a tres leches cake decorated in the size I was requesting, however within an hour, they were able to personalize a cake for about 18 guests. The cake was a hit at the birthday party! Catro's is my go to spot for delicious cakes. read more

I have been ordering cakes from Castro's since they started in their home in Falls Church. I was so disappointed this weekend when I received my cake. I have never had an issue with them. The decoration on the cake were done upside down. The fact that they specifically charged me an additional 17 for decorating it is so upsetting since they didn't do it correctly. I didn't even ask for their toys, I had my own. Very disappointing read more

The cake was really depressing for the price I though it will be different but they need to hired someone with more experience and practice

Let me start with saying my family has been a customer for over 20 years now. It is no longer the same service or even as close as worth the money it use to be. Si usted está buscando que le hagan un pastel con experiencia este no es el lugar , yo misma hago pasteles y a mi no me van a vacilar. Tienen a cualquiera atrás haciendo diceños rápidos sin experiencia deja los lados del border diferente en cada lado del pastel no se mira parejo para nada pagamos $40 EXTRA por una imagen que ni la pusieron bien. Cuando no estregaron el pastel decía "HAPP 5th birthday" le faltaba hasta la "Y". No estamos para nada satisfechos con lo que cobran y salen dando. Ponen fotos bonitas aquí en la página pero a uno le entregan lo que se les da la gana no lo que se le enseña. Si van a tener pastelería que tengan gente que saben lo que están haciendo atrás para eso pago uno no para que usen el pedido como expirimento de gente que va aprendiendo. Mejor pidan en bjs or Costco read more

I'm filing a bbb complaint against this establishment and will report illegal accounting. I was not properly reimbursed after I was quoted the wrong price and paid. read more

Absolutely amazing cake. I got so many compliments at my mother in law's birthday party. It was very last minute but I was able to purchase a cake here for 40 people and it was Delicious. Normally cake is always left over at parties but there was not a single crumb left. I will definitely purchase from here again. read more

As far as bread, cakes and baked goods , they are the best in the DMV. For some reason Yelp has this place as closed Sundays. Sunday hours are 9am- 12pm. I have not tried their food because they are a bakery and not a restaurant so I'm scared to try it. It's like having tacos at a salvadorean owned restaurant. read more

Great experience. I was charged with buying the cake for my manager's birthday, and this place was suggested to me by a co-worker that had been to the Seven Corners (right?) location. I ordered a tres leches for 10 people, and asked for it to be sprayed purple and trimmed out in white. It came out so pretty! And WOW was it delicious. We were all very pleased. The bakery itself is pristine. A very strikingly clean place run by friendly people. Highly recommend. I know I'll be going back to try the fruit tarts and pan dulce very soon! read more

My wife and I came into this place after handling some business next door, I was really craving for Salvadoran food. It was around 1:30 pm and the place was in total disarray, most tables were dirty and the floor was too. I really wanted to love this place so we still ventured out and ordered our food. The cashier took our order and give us a number to place on the table while the food was prepared. Lunch for 2 people (Carne Guisada and grilled chicken), plus one small coffee, two pineapple pastelitos and two horchata drink was $43.45, I could not believe it, but still wanted to give it the benefit of the doubt and awaited for my food, but when it finally came, nothing to be thrilled about, the food was served on small styrofoam plates with cheap plastic utensils, the Latin flavour was not present at all, it was a total disappointment. I will advise other Yelpers to stay away from this place, until the management starts showing appraciation for it's patrons. You cannot charge exorbitant prices to your clients and be cheap when delivering your products, it just does not work like that. read more

GO! GO! GO!!! If you love cakes with fruit filling, You MUST visit this bakery. This year, instead of getting a cake for my husband's birthday, we went in and everyone ordered a slice of cake. EVERYTHING was great. We got Mrs. Castro's new Oreo cake, the chocolate ganache, the Tres Leche, and the fruit cake...as well as a few other baked goods/cookies. I LOVED the Tres Leche as well, but no one else seemed to agree.I think it's cause they've never had it before. They thought it was ok. We thought the clear winner of all the cakes was the cake filled with fruit. I've been thinking about that piece of cake A LOT! How much did we like that fruit filled cake? Well, my daughter's 1st birthday is about a month away. Before stepping in here, we were planning on visiting different bakeries to find *THE BEST TASTING CAKE* for it. I'm not looking for a lavish three tier cake or even a princess type looking cake...just a GOOD memorable tasting cake for a memorable milestone. We found it. AT CASTROS...and...on our first try. Whew~ No need to go to bakery after bakery... =) =( *we have mixed feelings about that* They have a lot of other baked goods besides cakes. The store doesn't feel so welcoming...but O.M.G. when you bite into their cake filled with fruit. It'll leave you with an Amelia Bedelia effect...you'll bite into it and nothing else will matter. The cakes...5 stars Everything else isn't 5 stars, so We'll just say that I'm a fan! =) read more

Clean, tasty products and friendly servers, I will go back for more pineapple treats.

My complaint with Castro's bakery is hygiene. They're all super nice. But they don't change gloves . They touch money, credit cards , cans, and everything in between and never changed gloves. I will follow up with the Heath dept as this unacceptable. Please someone teach these people cross contamination. read more

Everything was excellent, the pastries where all good, the service was kind and helpful and the place was clean! Cant ask for more then that! Will be back! read more

We love this bakery. The pastries were awesome. Thank you so much. Good for kids too.

I have been going to Castro bakery for more than a year now, love everything, the staff are friendly. And i completely understand during this time everything is crazy . However, it will be very helpful is the time in the website match to the paper that is at the door, or least keep the paper at the door the same for each week or weekend. Today we were told the bakery was already closed but doors were not locked, not until I mentioned why the door was not locked and the website stated it was open until 6, someone decided to locked the door, leaving customers who also went by what the website says open until 6 on Saturday's .! read more

Overpriced and horrible service!!!! I would it give 0 starts if it was possible. Ordered a cake over a week in advanced and when i went to pick it up it wasn't ready, I waited at least 40 minutes for it. Won't ever buy anything here again. read more

After reading the reviews, I decided to check out the place. Got 2 strawberry pastel de frutas and 1 tres leche cake. The fruit cake was moist, fresh and not too sweet with bits of peaches and cream as filling . Tres leche cake was also moist and not too sweet. I don't like the frosting on tres leche cake, but my cat loved it (cat took the plastic cake container and ran away before I reacted). read more

I order three leches cake.very good not so sweet just perfect.. Call ahead of time for big cakes.they sell sweet bread as well other food.
