Anastasiya Algarme, one of the founders of DMV-area pizza chain Pupatella, will soon launch a new venture. Little Falls Café will serve sweet crepes, savory buckwheat galettes, and locally produced ciders.
The new cafe will occupy 106 Little Falls St. in Falls Church, a picturesque red house adorned with gingerbread trim. The building dates back to 1860, according to property records.
No official menu has been released thus far, but the restaurant will have an emphasis on seasonal, local fare. “We will have a seasonal menu and will use as many locally produced items as possible, given our proximity to the best farmers market in the area,” Algarme said.
Little Falls Café is anticipated to open in the spring, though no official date has been announced.
Pupatella’s Neapolitan pizza is a staple in the NoVA area. It was the winner of the pizza category in the 2024 Best of NoVA list, and the international 50 Best Pizza guide listed it among the best pizza chains in the world.
Pupatella currently has eight locations in Virginia, two in DC, and one coming soon in Maryland.
