WPA Bakery
3414 Semmes Ave, Richmond, VA
Crema's Take
“Tucked into a charming old Richmond building with original tin ceilings, WPA Bakery is a neighborhood gem equally beloved for its exceptional scratch-made pastries and surprisingly stellar egg sandwiches made with real, properly cooked eggs. The talented team behind the counter—led by David and Jennifer—brings genuine warmth to every interaction, whether you're grabbing a quick coffee and muffin or settling in with a slice of their renowned pie, and they're just as passionate about custom cakes for life's big moments as they are about your Tuesday morning breakfast.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, quick-grab. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
