Roggenart European Bakery, Bistro & Cafe

Ballston’s Cafe Boom Continues With the Arrival of Pastry Sensation Roggenart | Eater DC

"I noticed Roggenart European Bakery, Bistro and Café is crossing state lines with a new Ballston storefront at 4401 Wilson Boulevard in Arlington. Open daily 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., it specializes in coffees, buttery breakfast sandwiches, omelets, oven-baked melts, and cast-iron sandwiches; daily delights include gooey gruyere croissants built with bacon and fluffy Danishes stuffed with sweet cheese. Roggenart — whose name means “the art of rye” in German — operates four locations across Baltimore and Howard Counties, comes from Serbian-born owner Nemanja Popov, and seven years after opening is expanding closer to D.C. and is currently in hiring mode." - Tierney Plumb
