Location: Best Buns Bread Company, 4010 Campbell Ave Arlington, VA
I love the atmosphere of Shirlington and part of that is due to cute places like Best Buns. It's where I go to buy monkey bread to give to friends when I'm a dinner guest and the home of great dog biscuits. However, what Best Buns is really known for are its cupcakes. Now, they aren't super fancy cupcakes - quite the contrary - but they are good-basic-cupcakes.
Known for large cupcakes, but not unique flavors you have the choice of: chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter, ganache, cream cheese, or coconut frosting. And other varieties such as: red velvet, carrot cake with cream cheese frosting or vanilla cupcakes with chocolate or vanilla frosting.

The Triple Lemon was divine which is a must for lemon lovers. It tasted like I was biting into a sweet lemon. The chocolate cupcake with toffee frosting was super dense, like an uber thick chocolate cake, but the icing was quite light (made me think of Heath). Please note that side street and garage parking are plentiful. Enjoy!
