Many Chantilly area residents might be surprised to find this somewhat hidden gem of a bakery near the intersection of Route 50 at Lee Road.

But Firehook Bakery is no surprise to its loyal customers who have been enjoying the products from the Chantilly location for about four years now.

Its location is just a bit off the beaten path, but close the where most area residents are likely to be driving by, at least sometime during the week.

Turn on to Lee Road from Route 50, and then turn right again when you get to Flint Lee Road.  Drive along Flint Lee for a minute and you will see Firehook on the left at 14701.

The first Firehook started in Old Town Alexandria in 1993.  Since then its success has given rise to numerous locations throughout the area.  If you give their wonderful breads and other delights a try, you will understand why.  They make very good stuff!  The selection of "real" breads is especially impressive.

But then Firehook has also gotten rave reviews for their sweet products...pastries, custom cakes, cookies, sweet tarts etc.

Pierre Abushacra, one of the founders, was explaining the emphasis on authenticity in the style of the many breads crafted by Firehook.  I think "crafted" is the right word.  These are breads made with a tradition and a lot of pride.  Pierre also mentioned that Firehook has ongoing specials that are now part of the regular product offerings.  These specials are not day-old or "second quality" products.   The idea is to offer real value at competitive prices, especially given the realities of the current economy, and the consumer preference for value along with quality.
