The desserts from here were delicious. Very close to the Peruvian taste.

As an avid consumer of most Peruvian food, and having had more than my fair share of disappointing places, I was intrigued when I found out about Tambor Cafe, a sister property to the more senior, and well established Panca Peruvian restaurant, located a couple of doors down in the same small shopping center, in the beach city of Oceanside, CA.

My newest favorite. The sister cafe to South Oceanside's Panca Restaurant this is the perfect spot for a light lunch or coffee and dessert. Three different tortas are offered ( this is like a deep dish quiche). The goat cheese and pesto is light and fluffy and the Swiss chard offering looks amazing. Cappuccino was very good, the coffee robust add flavorful. Family owned. Charming, great decor and attention to detail. Obviously the owners are artist as well is great chefs. They can make mini desserts for your next event or house party. I highly recommend stopping in.

Amazing coffee!!! Had the special tres leches latte and the quality was definitely there even beyond my expectations... Surprisingly the sweets and sandwiches were also really tasty, all made from scratch and tasted like from my beloved country Períº!

Cute little cafe with some seriously great food. We went in around lunch and had the place to ourselves with most people taking orders to go. Had one of the best lattes I can remember, thanks to their house made chancaca. The pollo empanada made me want to buy one of every type they had. Will be back soon especially when they get those dessert empanadas going! In the meantime that passion fruit mousse will do! Super friendly service and some funny and helpful staff make it even easier to commit to returning. See you soon.

Stoped to repair my cellphone and walked over with my wife and taste the tamales/ pesto and criollo, delicious also the empanadas carne and ham with cheese... really flavorful, great service
Everything is made from scratch. With some unique and very delicious selections it was just what I was looking for! Perfect for a quick bite without the typical restaurant fare.

I, literally, stopped in here on a whim. It was a Sunday morning; before 9:30am and I really had no expectations from this cafe.
