Nice little gathering place in downtown Renton. I ordered right away, so I expected quick service, but it was over 10 minutes before I got my mocha. They had to do a couple of mobile orders before mine and others and also had to redo an order. By the time I finally got my coffee, those mobile orders were still waiting at the counter. read more

I ordered an latte and easily found a seat. There were not many food options. The interior and energy of the cafe location was amazing. I was able to find street parking near the cafe. Reasons for Rating: +1 Excellent location and parking +0.5 Food taste really good +1 Customer service +1 Interior/atmosphere +0.5 Would return/recommend others read more

Went for lunch coffee and ordered a cold brew. It was the worst, watered down cold brew that Ive ever had. Color was nowhere close to black. Also, why have an establishment with no visible wall menu? Inconvenient to only have a single menu at the counter at the front of the line. read more

Inviting and friendly. Lots of places to sit. I like to meet friends here often and bring friends to come try their coffees.

Really enjoyed the Elite event yesterday! What a cool spot and a great location in downtown Renton! The staff was SUPER helpful and I really liked the cool Ethiopian vibes in the shop. And it was a huge space! Very modern, but the back wall and videos showing the menu, and roasting of the beans was great! Coffee was very tasty, I loved the unique flavor of the Ethiopian coffee. I would like to check out their other location too. Very cool and special experience! read more

Fun little find in downtown Renton. The construction makes it a little difficult to find parking but it's worth the hassle. We enjoyed the chai latte and the seasonal pumpkin latte. The staff were very friendly and helpful in picking out drinks. Their pastries and sandwiches looked delicious but we were heading to lunch so didn't grab one. We will next time! read more

Living in Renton, I have been here a few times. Today was my first time since COVID. I was sad their inside wasn't open for sitting, but happy they had chairs and tables outside. It's a nice large space. When dine in is allowed, there are usually a lot of places to sit. Have a variety of coffee and teas. They also have some pastries and light meals. I ordered the sprinkle cookie with my salted caramel pumpkin latte. I love that they do coffee art! When it's not COVID, they used to serve their coffee in actual mugs if you were going to sit and stay a while. They are also dog friendly, as long as they are leashed and fairly well behaved. The only thing that stinks right now is driving in downtown Renton right now is awful due to the construction. There is street parking if you can find it or a parking garage if you don't mind walking (it's not far of a walk) I would like to attend for the coffee ceremony sometime. Sounds interesting! read more

As someone who is not originally from Seattle and who already has a issue with so many things such as food spots and culturally watered down everything in Seattle. In my humble but uncomfortable truth of opinion and from a different lens and perspective. I go to this coffee spot often and it seems to be a cool little place and the setup. No doubt.And to not tear this place down.But this place from what I understand is supposedly "Black owned" or classified as black owned.I feel that it's not the black owned how many of us may expect it to be.In fact there's not much about it that is black owned. And it i notice how in this renton location that I go to.Its seems to be of course a black owned watered down coffee spot. With the typical co-opted "LGBTQ" flag hanging on the wall of course.Theres a black American news paper that they offer customers to read that none of those kinds of people that patronize the place even pays attention to.It has a pretty loud atmosphere,while most of the people that work there are nice but you have the typical awkward No culture,no hospitality baristas Like most coffee places in "Seattle" of course.Overall a Kool place but not a favorite. read more

This is a really cool place to buy coffee! They roast their coffee inside this store, so you know the coffee is going to be fresh. I ordered an 8 oz. latte and I could definitely taste the quality of the coffee beans and milk. This might be a personal preference, but I thought that the latte tasted a little too earthy for my liking, but I'm really excited to come back and try some of the other drinks. I also bought a bag of coffee beans and it came with a free bag (which surprised me because I expected to be charged for it). The lobby is really spacious, with a lot of places to hang out/work/study. The lobby is a little on the chillier side, so definitely bring a sweater if you're coming. There is also ample street parking. When I first walked in, I was confused because I thought there would be a menu on a board somewhere, but turns out it's on the counter. Luckily, there wasn't a rush so I took my time to order, but I can definitely see how this might hold up a line. Overall, I enjoyed my experience here, and I'm excited to try out other drinks. read more

They do not know how to make an iced drink! You will be paying for overpriced watered down coffee! I got an iced americano. The ice was already melted when they handed me the drink. It's like they used hot water and threw ice in there. The taste was so light I made a separate order of a shot of espresso. It's +$4 If you want an extra shot by the way! Second drink was the iced ube latte. It tasted like straight up milk. Overall drinks are mid. Not worth the price, there are plenty of other good coffee shops in the area. The cafe is cute and very opened. A good place to hang out with friends read more

Tuesday February 11, 2025 , There was only two breakfast sandwiches options as it was 120pm. I chose the " Impossible sandwich" . They told me it takes 8 minutes, nice rest room. Minutes later , it was ready toasted took one bite ... but bread shell too hard to continue with Impossible sandwich. Told them my teeth can't bite that as I am senior age above (65yo). Requested my money back , she gave me an option for softer bread redo. Thanks but no. Will still go there in future.. probably hours earlier as they have more of a selections. read more

Came here on Veteran's Day so they closed earlier than usual... Boon Boona has a very open feeling ambiance - large and airy for something that is located in downtown Renton and their staff is nice. The appeal of Boon Boona ends there for me. Unfortunately, my Chai latte was not that hot nor was it that tasty. I also got my child a hot chocolate and she did not enjoy it either. Prices are average boutique coffee shop prices, but is an average drink, it is a bit overpriced. I would go here for a catch up session, but everything else is just unfortunately very average. Nothing really stood out for me to want to go back. read more

Boon Boona is a LARGE coffee shop in downtown Renton. Can't wait to revisit after COVID - would love to sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee. This coffee shop has a homey / community feel and the staff was super friendly. Dropped by for the first time this morning and had the Berbere Mocha (this is seasonal) and loved it. It contains a different few spices and chili pepper. Definitely has a wake me up kicker - coffee version of a Bloody Mary :) The coffee shop has a decent size menu and food options as well (really like how they have their seasonal flavors - currently serving pumpkin spice if you're into that). In regards to COVId - I really respect the workers for wearing gloves and using serving utensils to hand me cup lids and cup plugs and having me put them on myself so they don't have to touch my lid. Overall - really cool spot. The only downside to getting to the coffee shop may be the parking situation but that's outside of the coffee shops control. I would recommend a visit if you're looking for good coffee and getting away from coffee chains. read more

I came here for the Rose Cardamom Latte and was not disappointed! My latte wasn't too sweet and the foam ratio was excellent. Surprisingly large inside with plenty of room to space out tables. After Covid started, I really learned to appreciate open spaces. The industrial style interior is still cozy, the baristas were friendly, and I didn't have to wait long for my order. Great coffee place if you want a break from the chain stores plus you'd be supporting local! read more

Boon Boona is one of those local chains that is worth the hype. They have excellent coffee - the flavors are deep, and they're crafted drinks are always well done. I don't believe their pastries are in house (I've had Lowrider cookies there, which are also a great choice), but if they're not, they've chosen a good outsource company. The everything croissant was delicious. read more

This coffee shop is located in downtown Renton. There is no parking lot but there is street parking all around the area. I ordered the orange cream drink which is one of their summer drinks. They had the same drink last year too and I was able to try it here. It contains orange San Pellegrino, vanilla, and cream. It was like an orange slushy and it was really refreshing and perfect for a summer day. I didn't sit down inside but I was able to see that this place is humungous! There is a ton of space which makes it great for sitting down and do some work. My friend told me that Boon Boona is her favorite coffee shop to sit in and I'd love to be able to go in next time I'm in the area! read more

We moved from the Renton area during the pandemic, so I was excited to visit Boon Boona on a recent trip back to the area. The atmosphere was as amazing as I'd remembered. Diverse groups of people talking and laughing and sipping their drinks of choice. The ambiance was still warm and welcoming. The art on the walls bright and beautiful. I was also happy to find that staff were still friendly and the exact right amount of quirky. While the coffee was a bit stronger in flavor than I remembered (not quite enough mocha flavor to bring the balance I usually enjoy), I still drank it quite happily. This is just a really unique, hospitable, community space. read more

Okay...that almond milk latte was way too good. Shockingly delicious and just perfect. The espresso itself had a perfect roast flavor, nor burnt. The layer of foam on top was delicious too and the almond milk was delicious. I loved it. I tried their cookies and loved the salted one, not sure of the name. Big bright windows, lots of tables to sit at, bright lighting. Good spot for meetings and study space read more

Solid, great coffee in the perfect downtown Renton spot. I often get Boon Boona on the way to driving down to Portland or if I pick someone up at the airport. They have your standard coffee and then sometimes have seasonal specials with a little flair if you're daring. Employees are nice and there's enough seats to hang out with your drink. It's right next to a cute plant store you can check out, too. read more

I am not cool enough for this place. I've given Boon Boona several tries when my go to spot down the street is closed and I have noticed a few consistencies. The design and ambience are great. I love the commitment to local art and artists and the overall look is very cool. I can't think of a better looking coffee shop. However, If you don't look the way the staff wants you to, they treat you differently and act like they barely have time to ring you up. This is odd considering they seem to be all for inclusion. I do not understand what happens when they make iced drinks. I have no interest in damaging a locally owned business, but if you are the owner or manager and reading this, please take a look at whatever process is being used for iced drinks. The drink is so watered down it's as if warm water is being used and this is not a one off, this is consistent. The one I got today was so uncomfortably luke-warm, I tossed it after a couple sips. The place seems to have overall good reviews, so maybe it's just me, but I really don't feel like I'm imagining all this. If I am so be it, but if anything I'm saying here is consistent with other's reviews I hope whoever is in charge will consider our words. read more

Another local favorite for the win!! I have been loving this new coffee shop in Renton and there is so much variety of items to choose from and even some pastries and ice creams!

What an awesome addition to downtown Renton! I've been wanting to check out this space for a long time and I finally had the opportunity when I was meeting up with the Yelp Seattle Eastside Community Intern, Sean! Not only is this place beautiful, it's huge. There is tons of space for people to come work, study, or meet up with friends. On top of that, you can tell that the owners of this place really care about the experience customers have here. Everything just seems very intentional. I went with the Ganache Mocha, as it was something I'd never seen on another menu before. The barista was friendly and got my order out quickly. The coffee was delicious! Very smooth, light on flavor, and overall perfect. Highly recommend checking this space out, even if you're just going to grab a drink to go! read more

I drove all the way to Renton on my lunch break to support this black owned coffeeshop and I'm so glad I did! I got the laurel latte, which has a nice herbal and slightly bitter taste; I liked it although my husband did not. He got their pumpkin spiced latte, which was tasty. Their sandwich selection is quite limited and I would recommend the chicken pesto over the turkey since it has more flavor. I brought a bag of their decaf coffee beans; brewed me a cup pourover style and man was it smooooth! The staff are taking a lot of precautions during COVID which is great to see. Only takeout and there was only one person working at the time, so please be patient with the staff. read more

This was an amazing Ethiopian coffee shop in the Seattle metropolitan area. I absolutely loved it. I've been to Ethiopia and the quality of the beans at this place matches the origin it represents. Fun environment great merch and incredible coffee. The nitro is naturally sweet and does not need anything added to it. Highly recommend to stop by and get a Coffee and some merch. Boon Boona means Coffee, Coffee in two Ethiopian dialects. read more

This is a very cute coffee place. I would've never known about this if it wasn't for YELP. I got a iced brown sugar Americano with a toffee cookie and I was not disappointed. The cookie was the GOAT! There's lots of room to sit but you do need to show your vaccine card. It appears that they do have their own roasting area inside as well. It looks like they normally have lots of breakfast sandwiches but by the time I got there at about noon they were all sold out. I will have to go back to try more. It's a little off the beaten path but definitely worth it. If the 50% off beverage is what's driving you to go to this coffee place don't bother. It's an old coupon and you have to buy a pound of coffee to get it. read more

Came back here again to meet up with my friend for coffee. They are allowing limited indoor dining now, yay! Make sure you have your vaccine card available. The workers there were very friendly. I decided to try the winter special menu and got the hojicha latte. It wasn't sweet at all, just how I like my latte. It was such a nice day out enjoying coffee with great company. Looking forward to enjoying more coffee days inside a nice atmosphere. read more

Boon Boona is a fantastic locally owned coffee shop that boasts a huge, open space -- perfect for bringing the community together! This place is great for both coffee and pastry/lunch. They have a lot of different items in the case - all of which look *amazing* as well as a menu with a lot of tasty breakfast and lunch items. Service has always been friendly and I like the experience provided by the employees. The first time I walked in I asked about what milk alternatives they had and the answer was simply "all of them!" I have yet to actually test this out (perhaps I should!!), but they have my favourite (oat milk) and that's all I really need to know. The space here is huge and there's plenty of room for a larger group while also keeping a personal space area even at the busiest times. As an added bonus, they offer coffee ceremonies where you can learn abut the different coffees and get a really unique experience! Add in the fact they sell Henry and you've got the perfect coffee shop! read more

Fun, open and spacious coffee shop in DT Renton available for their coffee, pastries, studying/working and more. I'm not a huge coffee drinker but my lunch date is and wanted to try their coffee just in case we make this a regular spot. The floor plan is huge, the layout is quite big compared to what it looks like on the outside. We ordered at the front, the girls that day didn't seem too happy or friendly. Felt a little rushed by the stares, didn't know what to order since it was our first time. They only had one menu up front, I suggest checking yelp or know what you want before you go in they might be bothered. We ordered a hot coffee, iced matcha latte, chocolate croissant and vegetarian tofu sandwich. Per my friend, coffee was okay, but wouldn't drive here for it. The tofu Sandwich was great! Definitely a great vegetarian item on their menu. The iced matcha latte was BOMB--I'm not sure why I got it in a plastic cup? We dined in so I thought I would get a glass or something but nope, a straight clear plastic cup. I figure for over $5 and having a meal I wouldn't feel like I was drinking out of a solo cup. The chocolate croissant was also good, tastes just like any other nothing special. Would like to visit again and try different things, I want to like this place since my new favorite plant shop is next door. Hopefully next visit the experience is better. read more

I didn't know that Renton has such a cute, historic downtown district. I had to go to the DMV to deliver a check in-person and decided to walk around a few blocks and check it out. I happened upon Boon Boona Coffee and spontaneously decided to stop in. I love local coffee shops. I really loved the overall vibe of Boon Boona. From the beautiful wooden mosaic art above the coffee bar, to the enthusiastic baristas and my coffee was fantastic. If you are near downtown Renton I would recommend stopping in. read more

More WA coffee sips! My girlfriend recommended I try this place out (and I do my best to support local businesses while I'm visiting) and I love! Wish there was indoor seating and with glassware, but it's okay, I understand. Warm and friendly service. There is construction right outside on the main street and only a handful of tables for outdoor seating--I was able to sit for an hour to enjoy. Reasonable pricing , and I just stuck with plain latte but I loved it! read more

So glad to have had an excuse to finally check this place out. Came for a Mike's Shave Ice pop up this morning. Came about an hour and half early to check out Boon Boona and grab a latte. Love all the alternative milk options. Hemp isn't carried by enough places and it's my go to but I went with an oat milk latte to see how the latte art is. Not everyone can do great art with hemp so if I'm visiting a place for the first time I'll go with oat if they have it. Love all the natural lighting from the large windows up front. Great open space with lots of options for seating including exterior tables. So glad to see a great shop like this in Renton. You can tell it's a neighborhood favorite. Lot's of regulars seem to be wandering in and out. Look forward to visiting again when I'm in the area. read more
