    Couldnt wait...

    Rumi Coffee is the kind of place where you come in for a coffee and end up wanting to try half the menu. We got the kunafa, sumac chicken sandwich, Adeni chai, and orange blossom latte. The Adeni chai was probably my favorite of the drinks... warm, spiced, and really satisfying. The orange blossom latte was good too, but the kunafa was the standout for me. Sweet, crisp, rich, and a great way to finish the meal. The sumac chicken sandwich was solid, with a nice tang from the sumac. The inside environment feels warm and inviting, which makes it an easy place to sit down and hang out for a while. Overall, a really good experience with the kunafa and Adeni chai being the things I'd come back for.

    A Yemeni coffee shop that just opened near Alluvial and Fresno in the spot where the jewelry store used to be. Very cute vibe inside with table and a cute couch area. Lots of yummy treats, including baklava, in their case, but today I tried the cardamom latte. I was told it wasn't sweet, but to me it was a little too sweet, so if I ordered that again I would ask for it less sweet. We were enjoying our coffee there, and they usually give a real cup if asked for, but we didn't get one today. My friend ordered a hot matcha, and she said it was very good. I noticed they have sandwiches on their menu as well as a few other things that sounded good for another time. Since it's a newly opened place, there was a line to order, but it was fairly quick service to receive our coffees.

    Rumí Coffee serves up both amazing drinks and delicious food, in a lovely setting and with exceptional service! We visited today, during their soft opening weekend (Saturday-late morning) and though there was a steady stream of customers, the staff remained very friendly and attentive! Each dessert was a perfect balance of sweetness and flavor and went well with our Cardamon and Golden Date lattes. The decor and seating invites you to linger and relax. We especially appreciated that the acoustics was well managed and though busy, we were able to hear our conversation, something that is often lacking at other busy coffee shops. Both seating and parking is plentiful. Well done Rumí, we look forward to becoming regulars!

    Rumi Coffee is located on Alluvial/Fresno in the same space as Dumpling U. The vibe is honestly just makes you happy when you walk in - light, fresh, airy, with tons of natural light coming in, and you can tell every detail was thought out. From the lighting to the seating in the back corner, there's literally not a bad seat in the place. It feels welcoming, whether you're meeting someone or just want a good spot to study. I was immediately greeted when I walked in and there were 7-8 people working (including the owners), and everyone was friendly and patient while I asked all my menu questions. We were really excited to see date syrup on the menu because you don't see that at many coffee shops. We ordered the Golden Date Latte (hot with oat milk) and the Date Cold Brew, and both were so good. Side note - The "Golden" is just part of the name another ingredient. The coffee itself is smooth, not bitter, with a little nutty flavor, and the date syrup adds just enough sweetness without being too much. I already know the date latte is going to be a regular for me and for many others. We also tried the cashew finger, and it was delicious. We didn't want anything super sweet, and this was perfect. Just a nice, semi-sweet little pick-me-up. And for $1.50, it was an easy YES. It's right across the street from Kaiser, and I can already tell this is going to be a go-to for healthcare workers grabbing coffee before a shift. I saw a few nurses and a doctor come in while we were there during the soft opening. Definitely check it out now while it's still a little quieter, because once people catch on, this place is going to be packed.

    I really like the decor at Rumi Coffee, it's cute, modern, and has a lively atmosphere. It's definitely a nice place to meet up with friends and socialize, but I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for a quiet place to study.I ordered the matcha latte, but it wasn't sweet at all. I asked for some extra syrup, but it was still not sweet enough, so I ended up having to ask for quite a bit more. The coffee also tasted very strong for my preference. If you enjoy strong coffee, you'll probably like it here. One thing that disappointed me was the wait time. We waited around 10-15 minutes for our drinks even though the place wasn't busy. The staff seemed to be occupied with other things, and we eventually had to ask about our drinks. That was when they started making them.

    I'd been waiting for them to open so was excited to see their post about their first soft opening day. The interior is very spacious and redecorated with plenty of seating, booths and light fixtures. There is a counter with lots of options for pastries and cold desserts. The staff was very friendly and she patiently explained the various options as well as gave recommendations. I ordered the honey cake, baklava, chocolate baklava and an iced matcha latte. All the sweets were very delicious. The baklava was amazing and the chocolate one might be the best baklava I've ever had. The drink took a while but it was nice to see them make it fresh. However, the matcha wasn't quite sweet enough for me and was a little bland with too much ice. I did appreciate all the cute packaging they had with their logos on the boxes, bags and napkins.

    The golden date latte with date cold foam is sooo good. I love it! Their matchas are kinda lacking tbh. Wasn't a fan of the rose cold brew too (very bitter and not sweet) but I think their lattes are good! I also got the sumac chicken on focaccia and that soooo yum!! I really enjoyed it. The avocado toast was solid. I've had a few of their desserts, all which were pretty good. Service is great, workers are really nice. Inside so cute and a vibe. Lots of seating

    Inside! Tasty!!

    8/4/26 Getting dinner for later lunch & a drink to enjoy now!! Arrived!! Greeted right upon walking in. They have a bunch of DELICIOUS drinks, bakery & lunches foods to choose from! Small wait in line. The worker is GREAT! Highly recommended the Matcha. I ordered the Rose Matcha with oat milk, the Sumac Chicken Sandwich and their Highly Recommended Tiramisu for dinner. Paid for it, given #3 and sat at a table for it to be ready. Shortly later, #3 called & Matcha was ready. Wow DELICIOUS Matcha! Perfect sweetness! Not too much! Sumac Chicken on Focaccia Sandwich brought to me shortly later with thanks! Lunchtime!! Really DELICIOUS, FLAVORFUL Sumac Chicken on Focaccia Sandwich. Fresh bread & lettuce too! GREAT!

    Sumac chicken sandwich on sourdough (normally comes on focaccia)

    Was so excited to enjoy the soft opening of this place after watching it be curated over the last several weeks! This space is BEAUTIFUL, with gorgeous wood accents and curated decor, lots of seating and stunning materials. It's truly lovely. They have a nice selection of baklava and similar sweets and I really loved these little honeyed pistachio squares! The matcha was great - good quality and not too sweet. We tried the rose matcha and golden date matcha, and both were fantastic! We also got the sumac chicken sandwich, and although it was supposed to come on focaccia bread, they ran out so we enjoyed it on sourdough, which was so tasty! They should offer you a choice of bread so you can enjoy it in sourdough whenever you want! The service was so friendly and everyone was, willing to help make your experience positive. I am so excited to keep coming back to this spot!

    It was a lovely cafe. Bright, spacious and with plenty of seating. It seems to be popular on Sunday mornings because the line was to the door and then some. So I'm glad they're getting their business! As for drinks, we were recommended the golden date latte. It was delicious! And I love the taste of their espresso! Sometimes you'll go to local cafés and the espresso taste a little watery or bitter. This one was just right! We also tried their chocolate baklava roll and one of their fingers I can't remember which flavor. Both were amazing as well! I would totally recommend going here if you're looking to try a new local café. There was a nook seating, plenty of tables and chairs for parties of smaller or larger sizes. I saw people just catching up and people doing homework so the ambience is great for that. And parking was a little packed, but we were able to find a spot.

    Wow! What a great new locally-owned place for a coffee break. Friendly staff. Beautiful decor. And a bright atmosphere! The fresh-baked pastries were the perfect addition to my hot and creamy coffee. There's plenty of room to relax on upholstered bench seating, woodsy chairs and large windows with natural light. Their food menu is limited, but Im sure more tasty things are on the way. My only recommendation...a little music to fill the room to add some mood. Outside of that minor detail, Rumi is the perfect new "in between" place.

    The pastries
    Miranda V.

    Went on a Saturday afternoon, it was pretty busy probably in line for 15 minutes. Ordered a few pasties and got the date cream cold brew. The cold brew was pretty bitter and had to add some creamer when I got home. But highly recommend the pastries. The chocolate baklava is delicious! The atmosphere was cozy and relax. Would be a great study spot if you can find a table.

    First time visiting the place for a work meeting and I'm already scheduled to come back with girlfriends. The coffee was perfect and so was my avocado toast and basboosa. The ambiance is so alive and welcoming. Kind attentive staff.
