How we made this list. The places come from OpenStreetMap records with an Ashburn address, the data behind our local directory, checked against each place’s own website on Oct. 19, 2026. We added places from the Virginia Department of Health’s restaurant inspection records and the One Loudoun directory, and kept a place only where its own site gives an Ashburn address or a second official source shows it open. Ashburn is not a city, so “Ashburn” here means an Ashburn mailing address. We left out Duck Donuts in Broadlands, whose health permit is listed as closed, and bubble tea shops. The list is alphabetical. It is not a ranking or a recommendation, and nobody paid to be on it. Run one of these places? Write to us to correct your entry.
