Reviews for Café Rumi in Castro Valley, CA
This place is really one of my fav little, cozy, yummy spots. The strawberry smoothie and Mediterranean chicken salad are... absolutely delicious!!! So is their breakfast sandwich, which you can get up to 1pm. ???? Also the lady who runs it most of thetime, not the owner but her employee, is sooooooooo sweet, and has the best customer service!!! Def a must try, and try againand again and again! ???? Read more
By far the best neighborhood cafe I?ve ever had. Pink Chi is a must. Iced or cold are both amazing. Saffron chicken platter,... also amazing. So flavorful, it?s my favorite dish there. We stop by almost weekly, either a pink chi with a bagel and creamcheese after visiting the dog park. Or random lunches when I get to work from home. You won?t regret stopping by and orderinganything they have on the menu. Read more
A gem of Castro Valley, with a wonderful combination of excellent drinks and food. Great for anyone looking for a neighborhood... cafe, or wanting a light but fulfilling meal in the morning. If you get the gyro I do recommend grabbing some extra napkinsbefore you chow down--you Will spill. Gyro plate if you want a less delicious mess. Enjoy the atmosphere! Read more
Such a unique little coffee shop! They do a great job of serving coffee and foods that people in the U.S. would want/like while... also offering several Turkish options. It was so fun to be able to try new flavors and stuff not normally found in a coffeeshop! It's not always easy to make a coffee shop unique like that. Read more
What can I NOT say about this cafe! It gives me Central Perk (from Friends) vibe with a twist! The staff is extremely friendly... the food and drinks are delicious and unique. Looking for a local, friendly cafe to cowork? Cafe Rumi is your place! Wifi isavailable upon request and the overall vibes are chill. My favs - Belgian waffle with banana. Don?t leave without getting thepink chai ???? it?s a must! Read more
Totally unexpected surprise! Went there out of curiosity because I remember reading poetry from Rumi back in college. I got the... Rumi egg sandwich which came on a pita with this amazing garlic pepper aïoli and the egg was so fluffy and delightful! It hasgyro/shawarma meat and the overall combination just made my taste buds sing. I definitely needed the calories for biking throughthe canyon over to San Ramon. Breakfast of champions! Read more
Support small businesses!! Cafe Rumi was a great find after a work call. I had a great gyros sandwich (always a favorite), a... cool strawberry smoothie but the best thing was a pudding they've introduced. It was incredible! A rose water flavored creamwith sliced almonds and little noodles (!) which was just fantastic. Subtlety sweet and creamy with the different textures wasjust awesome. These ladies earned a solid 5 stars from me! Read more
What a sweet cafe! Got the pink chai which was made perfectly as well as a breakfast sandwich. A great little halal spot in the... suburbs of San Francisco. Also great spot to stop at if you?re driving south. I would definitely love to try the gyro sandwichas it looked delicious! Read more
