  Cafe Rumba is the most unexpectedly delicious food I've tried in Bham! I typically don't like anything spicy, but I think that Peruvian food is so yummy that I can take the heat. I usually get the Butifarra with Papas, but everything on their menu is bursting with flavor and texture. I only gave the atmosphere 3 stars because it's a pretty small and cramped dining area. But if you are able to find a seat there, they are usually playing good music and it's fun to be able to watch everyone make the food! 🩷

  One of that better sandwiches that you can enjoy in Bellingham. I’ve noticed that service has been off both times. Employees won’t notice that there are people waiting to order and they’ll be talking in the back. This has happened both times, but the food quality still makes it worth coming here.

  This spot was highly recommended in public forums and we decided to have lunch here on a Sunday afternoon. They also have a sister restaurant right beside selling coffee and other quick snacks. There was a line but it moved fast. We got the fried yucas and choripollo sandwich. The yucas were mindblowing - absolutely delicious, I have not had such texture in a fried dish before. The spice mix sprinkled on it and the sauce was delightful. The chorizo and chicken sandwich was smashing - the chimichurri sauce in it was so tasty we couldn’t believe how good it was. I’m glad we found this place on our visit.

  The Butifarra Royale was one of the best sandwiches I've ever eaten and huge, so I ate the other half the next day. I got it with the salad which was fine, but I'll probably try the yuca or the choclo next time. I accidentally came very close to closing time, but I was able to sit outside at a picnic table that was tied down. I am definitely going to be back for the Thursday special prices. Don't skip this place. The food is better than the pictures suggest and it has a bohemian cafe vibe.

  My beautiful and talented sister who lived in Bellingham suggested I go here. I always trust her food recommendations . She never answers my texts or calls unless it’s food related for some reason. Yes we love each other. I ended up getting the pollo sandwich and Tuesday it’s buy 1 get one free , so I thought why not. I got a side of potatoes with one of them. From the moment of the first bite with the perfect bread and sauce, I wished the sandwich never ended . It was so good. The only feeling I had in a long time even similar to that was actually the night before when Bad Bunny was announced as the performer of the Super Bowl. He’s awesome just like the sandwich I had. Next time I’m in Bellingham , I will try another sandwich and I can’t wait !
