Allspice Catering & Café takes up a large but surprisingly out-of-the-way storefront on the ground floor of a large Rosslyn office park, so its café caters mostly to those who already know about it including those who work in the same office building.

Those in the know can enjoy an extensive lunch and breakfast menu of wraps, eggs, entrée salads, sandwiches, soups, chilis and desserts, and sit on concrete picnic tables scattered throughout a modest but quiet garden to enjoy their food. Customers can also request after-hours catering from a menu which includes bagels, quiches, salads, sandwich trays, chicken and steak entrées, desserts and a range of vegetarian options. If you're interested, take a close look, the cafe is not easily visible from the street.
