History

Established in 1988.

Amphora Bakery was originally created to provide freshly baked bread, cakes and pastries for Amphora Restaurant in Vienna. Indeed, between 1977 and 1988, the bakery was located within the restaurant.

Soon the demand for Amphora’s bakery products was so great that the Bilidas and Cholakis Families decided in 1988 to expand the bakery to a separate retail store located in Vienna adjacent to the Amphora Restaurant.

By 2003 it became apparent that a larger bakery was necessary to satisfy the ever increasing demand for Amphora’s baked goods. The search began for a unique space to house not only the needed larger production and baking facility but also a retail café. That search ended with a warehouse space located in Herndon that has now been transformed into a luxurious bakery and café with a state of the art kitchen visible from both the main retail floor but also a 900 foot mezzanine.
