Buunni Coffee - Pinehurst

"Buunni Coffee, located on Pinehurst Avenue, is so adorable! I recently came to visit to grab an afternoon coffee and stayed to do some work on my laptop. The staff are really kind & efficient, my vanilla latte came out quickly and tasted delicious! The store patrons I ran into were really nice as well - we all did some shuffling at the one large table they have inside so everyone who came in groups could sit by one another. For a small shop, the place is pretty accommodating for people to be able to work inside while having their coffee + bite to eat. My only complaint is that it can get a little chilly inside when it's cold out because a rush of icy air busts in each time someone opens the door to enter/exit. Just something to be aware of when you come visit, particularly if you plan to stay & enjoy your coffee. I'm sure during the warmer months, the breeze is welcome. Regardless of this tiny con, this place is 100% worth a visit with all of the pros in mind. :-) Quickly, on a final note: if the cold air is something you're worried about during the winter months, they also have a little covered patio out front, which I believe is heated! There is a cute book exchange located out front as well. Enjoy!"

"Our favorite local coffee that has a married couple as the owners. They are those rare people with hearts of gold trying to improve their community. The coffee is phenomenal- the Sidamo is my favorite and even when we moved away, we get it auto delivered from their website."

"Lovely coffee shop in Hudson Heights. The first sip I took from my latte really hit the spot and it was one of the more memorable coffees I have had in a while. Im not sure if they bake their own good or if they get it from somewhere else, but the pastry that I also got was delicious. Plenty of seating inside as there is a big sprawling table near the entrance but there’s also seating outside in one of those street-side sheds that we now see everywhere. Look forward to going back for another cup when I’m back in the neighborhood."

"A neighborhood institution! Locally owned coffee shop that ethically sources beans from small farms. The coffee is excellent, there is also always a great selection of tea. My winter favorite is the chai latte, there are often seasonal special drinks. On site you can also purchase sweet and savory baked goods as well as sandwiches and salads. There are often gluten free options available. A great selection of coffee you can take home, they will also ground the coffee on site if you need. Not a lot of seating inside, but more tables in the outdoor shelter. For a real treat get your coffee to go and enjoy it at Fort Tryon Park!"

"Came here on an early Saturday afternoon and enjoyed an Ethiopian macchiato as well as a coconut chai that was iced. They have a nice outdoor seating area with about 3 to 4 tables where you can relax and enjoy your drinks. The Ethiopian macchiato was very strong and a bit sweet, with a little bit of nice coffee art on the top with the foam. I loved the iced coconut Chai, as it was a lot creamier and more coconutty than I expected. It was lightly spiced and quite sweet. I would definitely love to come back and try their other coffee drinks and even purchase some of their beans. I love that they partner directly with Ethiopian coffee farmers, as it’s obviously closer to the source!"
