Love this place. Small venue, you can see the band from just about anywhere. Nice outdoor patio area and the bathrooms are always clean. They regularly book amazing bands.

Cancelled the Malinda show but won’t refund tickets. Called 20 times, emailed 3 times. Total scammers.

I came here for a show and I'm pleased to say it was a great experience. I came from Pittsburgh so I was unfamiliar with the neighborhood. Was uncertain about the parking situation but I got lucky with free street parking about a block away.

It's asking about the food quality but I don't know if they served food for the shows?

The venue inside is very small and for the show I was at it was very tight inside. Upon coming in the merch tables were immediately to the left. I came in a little late and ended up in the back.

There was a little patio in the back up s few stairs. People escaped out there to smoke or catch a breather.

The sound for the show was good and I would come here again. The people at the show were also super nice.

Parking: Parallel parking on the street.

Wheelchair accessibility: Bathrooms did not seem accessible but the main venue was

Rumba Cafe was a nice place for a rock show.
From the sounds person to the bartenders, the staff was all great. It is a chill atmosphere considering the dive bar vibe. I would return.

Following up on the review below: they did ultimately contact me stating they had been having issues with their phone, and they were able to accommodate my request to transfer my tickets to a friend.

Over the last several weeks have tried to call the venue a number of times and submitting a question through their contact is page because i have tickets for pick-up at will call, but can’t make the show. I would like to give them to a friend and would like to know if it is possible and how. Voicemail box is ALWAYS full, and they haven’t replied to any of my submissions.

No food venue but drinks are fair priced for what they are and they ALWAYS have good music talent flowing through.

Always a great time. The venue brings good bands in from across the country. A giant dog played a great set. So glad I was able to catch them. Check them out.

The owner of this bar also owns Celebrity Etc. He owes back pay to me, as well as many other people who worked shows for him. Save your tome and money. Pay people, Tim!!!
