Little Cakes With Big Attitude

One of my favorite places to go in Alexandria. Whether it's for morning coffee, or a quiet place to meet someone to discuss business, you will be greeted by a friendly staff and an inviting environment. The coffee and cupcakes are delightful.

Kind of pricey for what you get, but that cost does go into supporting a cool small business. Good place to bring the family and grab a treat. I highly recommend the cupcake shakes - they plop a cupcake of your choice in the blender with a traditional shake. It's really phenomenal. They also have lots of specialty cakes/desserts during certain times of the year, like Mardi Gras.

Unfortunately, like a ton of stuff in Alexandria, this place is closed on Sunday...I will never understand that aspect of life in this town.

I love going in this place especially when my favorite cupcake is flavor of the week (cookies n' cream or wedding cake). Their prices are a little up there but they are so worth it!! As long as they're open..... I'll FOREVER go there to splurge on myself!!

Umm, absolutely amazing staff. Thank you for going above and beyond to handle our delivery (and actually knew the people we were delivering to and that they were vegan to include something for them). Thank you so much!

They serve the most delicious, super moist cupcakes in the most amazing flavors! They also offer a variety of coffee drinks in hot or cold options. Delicious!!!

This is such a great little place to get a sweet treat and treat your little ones too. I LOVE their frozen chai! It is beyond delicious! They also have a good homemade pop tart. My kiddos love the triple chocolate and plain jane. I like that there is a variety of more than just cupcakes, just in case you are in the mood for something else. But I'm always wanting a frozen chai!

Great place. The prices were very affordable even for keto options. The staff was super nice and helpful and went out of their way to make sure we were tended to properly and left happy.

It's a cupcake place. If I have a hankering for a small piece of cake I'll stop by here. It's definitely on the more expensive side. This is probably the most I've paid for a cupcake. I sure do like that Wedding Cake cupcake though. But I just go once every blue moon as a treat.

A friend gave me a gift card from Little Cakes for my birthday, so I treated her to ice cream there. It was very good and the atmosphere was very nice. I'll come back again on special occasions.

The cupcakes are tasty but overpriced. Half the cupcakes are usually overcooked. If you buy 11 cupcakes you get one free. Thats what they tell you anyway. But they all have to b in the same box. The manager who might have also been the owner claims that the reason for this is because the boxes they use cost her $1.35.
After explaining that no one there has ever told us that and we shop there weekly for parties, for work, for family etc. The manager refused to honor what her staff has been doing for quite a while. The boxes they use at this shop do not seal or help keep cupcakes fresh at all and the inserts hey use in the boxes do little in the way of keeping cupcakes from falling over. The manager was very clear that she had no desire to compromise and certainly made no effort to give a regular customer who spends a lot of money there any reason to spend another dollar of our hard earned money there again. When you consider the amount that each cupcake cost then figure in that usually 1 out of 2 or on a good day 2 out 3 cupcakes are overcooked along with the manager`s overall poor peopke skills, Little Cakes With Big Attitude will only continue to do the volume of buisness they do because there isnt much in the way of competition. YET ANYWAY.
