Hear from our valued guests
We had dinner here and loved it. The atmosphere and decor was so nice. I love the brick arches, lights and NYC paintings. The meatball sandwich on Ciabatta was great. The chicken parm was good. The best was the special creamy garlic sauce Pasta with chicken and sundried tomato entrée. We will be back!
Roam Cafe was a great first experience and definitely worth a visit. The food was excellent, and they offer solid gluten free and vegetarian options, which is always a plus. …
