Nubia Cafe
1785 W Lincoln Ave, Anaheim, CA
Crema's Take
“Nubia Cafe is a bustling Mediterranean and Egyptian spot in Anaheim that's earned its loyal following with authentic dishes like lamb shank and hummus that keep people coming back. The energy here is electric—expect a packed house filled with people enjoying both the food and smooth hookah, though you'll want to arrive early or embrace the crowd. It's the kind of independent cafe that's built its reputation over years by delivering genuine flavors and a warm atmosphere that captures the heart of Mediterranean dining.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu. Open late.

If you know, you know!! Nubia Cafe is one of those spots that’s been around forever for a reason. We came here around 7pm and the place was already packed, inside and out. There’s a constant buzz of people catching up, music playing softly in the background, and lots and lots of…
