If you love Ethiopian coffee then this place is for you! Yes there is free wi-fi but seating is limited. My shot was a touch short . My only gripe is that they served my espresso in a paper cup.

Casey

My new neighborhood coffee shop ! Great for coffee if you're in Hudson Heights, right by the adorable little triangle park on Cabrini.

Judy

This is my favorite neighborhood coffee shop ! Independent, local, small and family owned shop. Ethiopian coffee--hazelnut latte is my personal fave.

Sara ????⚔????

The feta and scallion scone is delish! The staff is really nice, despite being busy. Yummy coffee . Not much seating but the park is right nearby!

Casey

Great little coffee shop in my new neighborhood . Good coffee and I also had a yummy baked good with pecans .

Eric Nunez

Great coffee and friendly staff ! It can be tough to find a seat sometimes though, so be prepared to get something to go.

Ferananda Ibarra

Got the tip from a sophisticated coffee drinker. She says Buunni is the best she found in NY. Applause for their quality! I tried the etopian macchiato .

Tiffany Langston

Small and friendly . Best ice chai latte I've ever had.

Daniel Atwood

Great espresso and the only real cafe in the neighborhood (Starbucks doesn't count). Beware: wifi costs extra and there is very limited seating .

Alex Robertson

The staff did seem a bit cold, and it’s really expensive . Great iced latte tho, had a feeling it would problematize my thinking this place is wholly lame

Fantastic coffee place in the Heights with self roasted Ethiopian beans and even pour over coffee .

Susumu

Great chai latte ($3.25). Limited space, but they have free WiFi .

Lawrence Elchana Clingman

Love it here. Super friendly staff , great atmosphere. Get the chai tea latte !

Sammy Crawford

Staff is unnecessarily rude and snippy the last several times I've been in here. The coffee is amazing but I've started going to Starbucks more often because I'm treated like a valued customer there.

Jenn Wong

Good black coffee , tiny space, wifi available with a code you receive on your reciept. Quiet , clean .

Mariana L

Good coffee from Ethiopia, amazing cheddar scones , interesting cookies ...Neighborhood gem !

Adam Iannazzone

The coffee and pastries are good. It's a small place, but there are some benches outside too.

Staci Stevens

Buunni never turns on the AC , charges extra for everything but cream and milk , and the team is grumpy. Walk a little further to Kuro Kirin for better service, coffee and AC .

Isa Co

The coffee is delicious and for a refreshing snack try one of the People's Pops!

Karen L.

Love the Ethiopian coffee ! Cozy , comfortable ambiance.

Jonathan Lam

Olive oil cake is delicious and not too sweet

Matt F

Try the Bunna Special. A little slice of espresso heaven.

Mariana L

The cheddar scone is so flaky! Great cafe latte .

Levi Brandriss

They make espresso shots a bit short . If you want a bit more, order long

Alex Albert

Eh it’s a bit pricey for the teeny tiny chai latte I ordered. It was good but I swear it seemed like it was half a cup and I was done.

Lee Scharf

Fantastic espresso . Great vibes.

Susumu

No restroom , but there is one in a nearby park , Bennett Park .
