The Rumman Collective – The Best Artspace in Amman

Avatar

Smack Dab in the middle of Jabal Amman you can find a 100% underrated/Hidden treasure  – a beautifully restored building surrounded by lush fig and pomegranate trees, and some of the best cafe drinks you’ll find in Amman.

If you haven’t guessed yet, we are talking about Rumman Collective

So there’s two options when it comes to seating, inside the restaurant – which is absolutely amazing with the cultural pieces & handmade selection of the cutest little figurines – or choose the terrace, where you’ll feel a out-of-body experience (ok, maybe not that amazing) surrounded by flowers, predominantly purple as that’s the color palette for the whole restaurant, which really adds character. We really recommend it if it’s not too busy.

There is a small shop adjacent to the restaurant that you should check out as well, it showcases a selection of unique local handmade products, all made by Jordanian seamstress, Tetas basically. From intricately crafted cultural pieces to charming plant holders, each item is something you need in your living room (or at least that’s what I tell myself).

What sets this place apart is its commitment to making a difference.

As a non-profit shop, they sell art from causes they support. Whether you’re looking for a cozy corner to enjoy a drink, a vibrant bar scene, or a peaceful spot to admire local art, this place has it all.

While you may be tempted to bring your laptop along..Just don’t maybe – this is a place where screens take a backseat to the immersive experience of savoring good company, delicious food, and the vibrant ambiance. But rest assured, you won’t miss your screen for a moment in this captivating oasis.

So, if you find yourself in Amman, make sure to pay a visit to this hidden gem. Whether you’re a local looking for a new favorite spot or a traveler seeking an authentic taste of Jordanian hospitality, this place is a must-visit destination.
