    Used to be stellar sandwiches! Absolutely fantastic. But they have recently changed the recipes and it leaves something to be desired. The chicken is now covered in a stifling amount of cumin. The shoestring potatoes are gone from the sandwiches! It feels like measured have been taken to cheapen the sandwiches and it tastes that way too. But they certainly haven’t gotten any less expensive for the consumer. I would be so overjoyed if they’d go back to their original recipe. Also, restaurant seems dirtier than I recall it being in the last decade. The surfaces more sticky. The windows more condensated with humidity.

    Just delicious. We were in Bellingham for the day and wanted something different for lunch. We got just that at the hip small Peruvian sandwich joint. Pictured is the #7, a chicken and chorizo sandwich with sandwich veggies and a side of shatteringly crisp yucca fries. The huge sandwich was delicious, I could only eat 1/2, the fries and remaining 1/2 will be dinner. Great friendly staff were fun folks. Everything coming out of the kitchen looked fantastic, especially the platter of fish tacos. I'll be back sooner than later. Rumba alone would be worth the 80 minute drive.

    I went to Cafe Rumba while I was in Bellingham for an appointment. I ordered the oreo cheesecake. It was absolutely AMAZING!! The woman I ordered from was equally amazing and attentive. I can't wait to go back when im in the area again. I will absolutely stop by every time I get the chance, what an amazing find! 100% recommended.
