Plant-Based Ethiopian Catering in NYC
All 5 boroughs and beyond.
Bunna Cafe brings our colorful, flavorful Ethiopian beyaynetu feast to offices, parties, weddings, productions and private events throughout NYC. As NYC's original plant-based Ethiopian restaurant, we've been sharing Ethiopian food and hospitality since 2011. We offer drop-off catering throughout the New York metropolitan area, as well as full-service event catering with food service, bar packages, musical entertainment, and of course, the Ethiopian Coffee Ceremony.
This is one of our office favorites- very flavorful! Both Ethiopian food connoisseurs and first-timers really enjoyed the meal. We have multiple meat eaters, yet they raved about the food even though it is vegan.
I recommend it highly. The food was fantastic, delicious and hot. The person who brought it was respectful, professional and knowledgeable. It made everyone happy especially me. I would definitely use them again and tell others to check them out as well.
