Alexandria Food Tours

A book titled Classic Restaurants of Alexandria by Hope Nelson rests on a beige windowsill next to a window, with part of a building reflected in the glass.
A street scene at dusk shows cars parked along the curb, two people standing near a brick building with large lit windows, and a lamppost illuminating the sidewalk next to a stone wall.

From seaport pubs to international cuisine, Alexandria’s culinary history runs deep. George Washington danced in the ballroom of Gadsby’s Tavern, an Old Town landmark. Chadwicks has survived fire and flood in its home on the Potomac waterfront. The storefront of legendary Shuman’s Bakery may be closed, but the latest generation continues to serve its famous jelly cake to loyal locals.
