Yes. Rumi Café serves single-origin East African coffee, with beans from Ethiopia, Kenya and Rwanda normally on the bar. They are sourced directly from smallholder farms, with no middlemen, and every lot is cupped and graded before it reaches the counter. The specific lots rotate as fresh harvests arrive, so ask which Kenyan lot is pouring on the day you visit.

For a balanced first cup, start with a cappuccino. It lets you taste the espresso while soft, textured milk rounds the edges. If you prefer black coffee, ask which East African filter coffee is tasting best that day. Tell the barista whether you enjoy chocolatey, fruity, bold or gentle flavours, and they will help you choose confidently.

A flat white combines espresso with finely textured steamed milk. It is smooth and creamy, usually with less milk than a latte, so the coffee remains more noticeable. The milk has a thin, velvety microfoam rather than a large cap of airy foam. It is a good choice when you want sweetness and comfort without losing the espresso’s character.

Kenyan coffee is often bright, juicy, aromatic and full of character. “Strong” depends more on how a coffee is brewed and the coffee-to-water ratio than its country of origin. Tell your barista what you enjoy and they can guide you.

Both begin with espresso and steamed milk, but their balance and texture differ. A latte contains more milk, giving it a gentler coffee flavour and a silky finish. A cappuccino is more compact, with a stronger espresso presence and a fuller layer of foam. Choose a latte for something mellow or a cappuccino for a bolder, airier cup.

Absolutely. Espresso, Americano and filter coffee are all served without milk by default, allowing the origin and roast flavours to stand clearly on their own. Browse our drinks page or ask the barista for a recommendation based on whether you prefer a cup that tastes light, bold, chocolatey or fruit-forward. They can also explain the day’s available beans.

Yes. Rumi Café serves breakfast every day from 8:00 AM.

Pair breakfast with East African specialty coffee, Kenyan tea, juice or another handcrafted drink. Full dishes and prices are on the menu.

A buttery croissant or lightly sweet pastry pairs beautifully with cappuccino. Crisp, flaky layers complement the drink’s creamy milk texture without covering the espresso, while a gently sweet cake can soften a darker roast. Ask the team what is fresh that day and describe whether you prefer something rich, fruity or not too sweet for a more personal pairing.
