This is the local sandwich shop/cafe for all of us that work in the area. They serve breakfast and lunch. I strongly recommend if you want a good sandwich because it's the only spot in Rosslyn that has a solid sandwich. My colleagues and I have been here many many times. It's not winning any food awards. However, the sandwiches are made fresh, tastes great, and priced just right. Strongly recommend if you work in the area or just visiting.

Favorite spot for office days!! Great walking location for those working in Rosslyn. The coffee never disappoints, they add coffee ice cubes to the iced coffee; I always look forward to it! Sandwiches and salads are reasonably priced and very fresh. Good service too. 10/10 so happy this cafe is around!

Great sandwiches served quickly and reasonably priced especially considering the area. They carve meat and the ingredients were fresh. Well worth the walk from the Microsoft building.

AHRA is a small cafe located in a slightly confusing location. AHRA is inside of what appears to be a normal business building, with no signage on the outside; however, when if you can locate the building you can't miss AHRA once you walk in. The restaurant has limited seating, but there is additional seating in the public areas of the building. Ordering and checkout is quick and easy, you can be in and out in 2 minutes so long as you don't order a specialty sandwich. Most sandwiches automatically come with lettuce, tomato, and mayo so if you don't want those you have to specifically ask for that. The sandwiches are $8 and are an adequate meal. I got a brisket sandwich with the aforementioned lettuce, tomato, and mayo, as well as honey mustard. I was a bit skeptical of ordering brisket, seeing as the rest of their menu didn't have BBQ on it, but my skepticism quickly faded as I tried my sandwich. The brisket is very tender, and pulled apart easily aside from one fatty portion at the end of my sandwich. The brisket was a little dry and could have used some more sauce, but I couldn't find a list of their sauces anywhere. If they had a sweet BBQ sauce, that would perfectly compliment the brisket. I would recommend AHRA to anyone looking for a local, quick place to grab their lunch and go. I will definitely be returning!

Great food. I had breakfast and the service was friendly, good amount for the price, tasted good, and good walk-in location. No real parking but you are in DC, parking is terrible for everyone. Now, the Chia Tea tasted like a powder mix but oh well, the breakfast food made up for it. Note, there is a Compass Coffee right down across the street around the corner. So get a coffee, come get some food, and then chill at the tables and chair in the grill and relax.

I recently visited Ahra café for breakfast and had a great experience. The food was inexpensive and the menu offered a wide variety of options. I ordered a sandwich and a burger. Both were delicious and freshly prepared. They were also reasonably priced. The staff at the café were friendly and the overall atmosphere was pleasant. I would definitely recommend this café for a cheap and tasty breakfast.

Quick service if you are on rush. I liked caprese more than grilled chicken
Food was okayish. Very bready sandwich and turkey was kinda dry. Coffee was also just plainish drip coffee.

This is a hidden gem if you are looking to grab a quick bite for lunch. They have excellent sandwiches - Reuben and Brisket being my favorite. They also serve a fantastic Bibimbap bowl. And did I mention that they are super affordable? :)
