How to get there
Drive along Umgeni Road and turn left between Crazy Cars and Torino Motors into Station Drive. Khuluma is situated right next to Torino Motors. Remember Station Drive is a Crescent - there is another entrance to the road a little earlier - skip that one.
Umgeni Road
The entrance
On the right side of the store are a number of small shops selling various items much like the entrance to James Coffee in San Diego. Adds considerable interest to the location
No shortage of seating - in several configurations - take your pick in accordance with your desired level of privacy. On one side is a container for plants which appears to be a work in progress.
Who's preparing your coffee?
Assani Dieu trained and worked in Counter Culture in Florida Road before joining Khuluma as Manager and Head Barista. He enthusiastically demonstrated his skills in making a flat white with some decent latte art.

The House Speciality - Vietnamese Coffee
Contains condensed milk, milk, ice and espresso. This coffee was recommended to me by a regular. Too sweet for my liking as I have my coffee without sugar but well presented in a generous size glass.
