Michael FernandezJune 7, 2015If 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.
My new neighborhood coffee shop! Great for coffee if you're in Hudson Heights, right by the adorable little triangle park on Cabrini.- This is my favorite neighborhood coffee shop! Independent, local, small and family owned shop. Ethiopian coffee--hazelnut latte is my personal fave.
Great coffee and friendly staff! It can be tough to find a seat sometimes though, so be prepared to get something to go.
Sara 🌈⚔🍾October 2, 2014The 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!
Ferananda IbarraNovember 17, 2012Got 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.
Alex RobertsonDecember 8, 2022The 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
Daniel AtwoodJune 8, 2014Great espresso and the only real cafe in the neighborhood (Starbucks doesn't count). Beware: wifi costs extra and there is very limited seating.- Great little coffee shop in my new neighborhood. Good coffee and I also had a yummy baked good with pecans.

Fantastic coffee place in the Heights with self roasted Ethiopian beans and even pour over coffee.
Lawrence Elchana ClingmanAugust 8, 2014Love it here. Super friendly staff, great atmosphere. Get the chai tea latte!
Staci StevensJune 10, 2019Buunni 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.
Jenn WongAugust 7, 2014Good black coffee, tiny space, wifi available with a code you receive on your reciept. Quiet, clean.
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.
Isa CoAugust 30, 2015The coffee is delicious and for a refreshing snack try one of the People's Pops!
Mariana LOctober 21, 2012Good coffee from Ethiopia, amazing cheddar scones, interesting cookies...Neighborhood gem!
Adam IannazzoneAugust 6, 2014The coffee and pastries are good. It's a small place, but there are some benches outside too.
Alex AlbertSeptember 15, 2020Eh 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.
Levi BrandrissAugust 10, 2013They make espresso shots a bit short. If you want a bit more, order long
