The cage was very cozy and located in a nice place. The staff was very helpful with recommendations and friendly. The food was on the more expensive side, but it was simply delicious. We really liked our focaccia sandwiches. The scone was fresh and really tasty.

Such a nice cafe, staff are super attentive/friendly and all the pastries/food items look amazing. We had the hot cross cinnamon bun, and feta spinach pastry which were amazing. Only thing that was weird was how much more expensive the iced coffees were considering they’re easier to make.

Kuna Coffee and Bakery is hands down my new favorite spot! The coffee is rich, smooth, and clearly crafted with care—and don’t even get me started on the pastries. Every bite tastes homemade, fresh, and full of flavor. You can tell they take pride in quality here. But what really made my experience unforgettable was the incredible service from this stunning young lady Grace. She was warm, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about the menu. Grace took the time to walk me through the options and made a perfect recommendation that I absolutely loved. Her energy and kindness made the whole visit feel like I was catching up with an old friend. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by Kuna—and make sure to say hi to Grace. She’s a rockstar and the cherry on top of this already amazing place!
