Smallish venue, which created an experience that felt personal, but also made it a touch warm inside. Poor Emily looked to be feeling it by the end of the set. NIght Club did a great job and I'm glad I made the drive up from Cincy.

It's a little early in the year to start making my list of top shows, but this one is definitely on the list. Bryce Avary is an incredible performer and such a genuine human being ❤️

Even after over 30 years of being a band, Mustard Plug came with such high energy, enthusiasm and fun. Every tune they played kept the dance floor jumping with smiles all around for the whole set. Super uplifting show!

I loved it! Joe Pug is a “down to earth” kinda guy, involves his audience, loves to tell his stories and just a good person! My first time to see him live and first time at The Rumba Cafe. My Family loved his music!

This was THE most amazing intimate concert I’ve attended. His connection with the crowd/fans along with his musical talent vocaly and instrumental is breathtaking. I will gladly attend another John Splithoff concert at this venue or another. 👏🏾👍🏾🔥

I had never been to the venue before and I was impressed with the size and the compact of the stage,bar and floor....A++ to the venue and as for the concert it was just as amazing and absolutely would drive the 3 hours each way to see Geordie Kieffer ever time his tour comes back to Columbus Ohio so couldn't ask for a better time than what I had last night

Nice venue, a little small but worked out perfectly for the crowd size. Shallow Side put on a great performance, and they were very interactive with their fans. It was sad that there were no T-Shirts to purchase, but they can't control inventory or deliveries. The other two acts were very good as well...but Shallow Side put on the best "show". It was well put together. AGS sang a song, talked, sang a song, talked, etc. Ovtlier was the opening act, and they were good, but only got to sing a few songs. I would go back to the venue, and will DEFINITELY see Shallow Side again.

Patrick is the real deal. What a talented writer, guitar player, singer & fantastic entertainer. Can’t believe he hasn’t gone to the big leagues, such a treasure. We love him and his band you can so see that they really enjoy putting out great shows for us to enjoy.

The Dollyrots are always great! Fun punk/pop music. Kelly and Luis are great people who take time with the fans after the show. The Von Tramps were also great! Great evening!!

The show was great!!!! Loved everything about it. Was nice to see the Dollyrots after the show greeting & meeting with the fans, really made the night special. Also loved the two groups that play before the Dollyrots. The Rat Motel & The Von Tramps were really good too. Loved the Rumba Cafe, nice small place so you were able to enjoy the show and not from way up in the nosebleed section. The crowd was great too, friendly & just there to have a good time. And that was what it was, a good time. Can't wait for next year.

My wife and a I enjoyed both the original music of Dead Original and the Nirvana covers by Smells like Nirvana. We can no longer see Nirvana unfortunately so this was the next closest thing!

They seemed kind of bored, or going through the motions (other than the drummer!!), but the overall performance itself was great. I’ve loved these guys for decades and wasn’t disappointed, being able to meet them was great too. They were really nice, friendly, and accommodating. These dudes deserve more, so maybe that’s why they seemed so calm and subdued (the venue was tiny, crowded, and very poorly ran)—but the performance was professional and nearly flawless.

This is my 3rd time seeing The Unlikely Candidates at this venue, and it has yet to be disappointing. I always have a blast, and with the venue being so small, the show is so much more personable.

The WEATHERS brought the rain as a giant waterfall fell from the ceiling and interrupted the concert. They were true professionals and soldiered on with a mini acoustic set before order was restored. It's a night that will not soon be forgotten by anyone!

Animal Sun is full of the most authentically talented people I've seen in a long time. They are also the sweetest boys who are very appreciative of the opportunities they get

Mike's performances are always amazing. My problem was all the drunk douchebags pushing in front of me and spilling drinks on me. Also, the cackling woman that kept mocking reggae and Mike Love's dialect.

Amazing show at the Rumba Cafe by one of my new favorite Country artists Jack Klatt. Beautiful forlorn ballads catchy pop tunes and wow a cover of Neil Young’s Unknown Legend. New album is on Yep Roc ‘it ain’t the same.’

Sweet Spirit did not disappoint. They are amazing to see live, especially in a venue the size of Rumba Café. Brilliant performance, high energy, fantastic songs. Also members of the band were very friendly hanging out before and after the show. Another night to remember. See this band!

It was great. Love these smaller venues. 2nd time I’ve seen Horton Heat. Barn burners they are. Never heard of the shack Shakers till now and glad I have. They’re really good too. Totally glad I went to this show. Had a fantastic time.
