Exploring Arlington? Here's a Local Spot Worth Visiting

Great food is one of the best ways to experience a new neighborhood.

Whether you're new to Arlington, moving into a nearby apartment or dorm, visiting Washington, D.C., or simply spending the day exploring Columbia Pike, finding a great local place to eat is always part of the adventure.

At Mpanadas, we believe good food should be simple, satisfying, and made to share. Our menu features handcrafted empanadas, specialty coffee, refreshing seasonal drinks, and sweet treats—all made to fit into your day, whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or taking a well-deserved break.

Not sure where to start? Try one of our signature empanadas, pair it with a handcrafted drink, and finish with a sweet treat. Or better yet, bring a friend and sample a few different flavors together.

One of the things we love most is welcoming first-time visitors who quickly become regulars. Whether you're here for a quick stop or making Mpanadas part of your weekly routine, we're happy to have you.

If you're exploring Arlington or spending time along Columbia Pike, we'd love to welcome you.
