I stumbled upon this place last week, and I am glad I did. Hasija, the owner, is absolutely adorable! I couldn't stay the first time and was sad I couldn't. I got the spinach burek, so good and the matcha latte. So I returned. This time, I had the carrot cream soup and hot caffeine latte. My friend got the chicken and potatoes, let me tell you. Food was bomb!!!

The food was absolutely delicious especially Bosnian Handmade Boreks — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish we tried was a hit! The ambiance is cozy yet stylish, making it perfect for a relaxed meal or a casual get-together. What really stood out was the customer service. The staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive without being overbearing. They truly made us feel at home. Highly recommend this spot if you're in the area — we’ll definitely be coming back!

Absolutely amazing! Everything about this café is perfect — the atmosphere, the drinks, the food — but what truly makes it special is the owner. She is incredibly kind and welcoming, and her warmth adds such a personal touch to the experience. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area! <3333

What a jewel of a place “Rumors Cafe” is. The food is delicious. I especially love the Creamy Mushroom Soup served on Tuesdays. Service is efficient with the staff being friendly and positive. The decor has been updated from the previous owner. It is bright & clean with comfortable seating areas.
