For those looking for new places to try out, there are several new locations coming to or already open in and around Fresno.
New options for coffee, fruit juices, desserts and breakfast lead the way as both new and familiar brands find fresh places to launch from.
Already Open
Rumi Coffee
Rumi Coffee had its soft opening the weekend of July 31.
The restaurant, at 7406 N. Fresno St. in Fresno, serves pastries, coffee, tea, matcha and prepared food. During the soft opening weekend, lines often stretched to the door.

The cafe opens at 6:30 a.m. and closes at 9 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays, staying open until 11 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. The prepared food options stop at 4 p.m.

The international corner store at 4546 E. Tulare Ave. has been under construction since at least last December. It replaced El Dorado Carniceria y Taqueria, and like the former inhabitants, has a meat counter with fresh cuts available.
Del Monte also features a prepared food section, as well as an assortment of international snacks and drinks. As much as customers can find familiar brands of tortillas and household goods, they can also turn into the next aisle and find imported flavors of Lay’s chips, soda and other snacks.
Angel Sweets & Desserts

The location opened in the mall’s food court in July. It offers juice blends, boba, milk tea, mangonadas and refreshers, as well as açaí bowls and customizable Korean-style corn dogs.
Tony’s Fresh Juice Bar
Tony’s Fresh Market in Kerman added a new juice bar inside the building.
The juice bar, which opened Aug. 12, is offering both food and pressed juice. On the menu, people can expect protein shakes, salad and protein bowls, overnight oats, açaí bowls and other options.
