About us.

At Perch’d and Buna, we believe great coffee and food should feel like a daily ritual worth savoring.

Born from a love of community, craftsmanship, and quality, both cafés are united by a simple vision: to create welcoming spaces where people can pause, connect, and enjoy thoughtful hospitality. Whether you’re perched on a stool with a single-origin espresso or sharing brunch with friends over house-made pastries and vibrant seasonal dishes, our team is here to make every visit feel special.

Perch’d is your go-to local nook — a calm and cozy hideaway with a focus on expertly crafted coffee and curated comfort food. It’s the kind of place where time slows down and the details matter.

Buna, named after the traditional Ethiopian word for coffee, is where bold flavors and a vibrant café culture collide. It’s a lively and warm venue inspired by the origins of coffee and designed to celebrate community, conversation, and creativity.

Together, Perch’d and Buna bring you two unique café experiences with the same dedication to quality, inclusivity, and the joy of a really good brew.

Together, they’ve created more than just cafés — they’ve built community hubs, creative outlets, and places where connection thrives.
