About Luna Café

Luna Cafe is a small, deliberate breakfast room on Calle 50 in Bella Vista, on the ground floor of The Gray building, just to the right of the gray entrance. The room is raw concrete and a long counter built from perforated terracotta brick, lit by a single paper lantern over a communal wood table - a place designed for lingering, not grabbing and going.

The kitchen leans on artisan bread and careful coffee. The plate it is known for is an everything-bagel piled with cured salmon, cream cheese, pickled red onion and microgreens; alongside it come matcha, protein smoothies and milk-based specials like a pink beetroot latte with leaf art. Coffee is specialty-grade, pulled and poured with intent rather than rushed.

Come for a slow breakfast or a mid-morning coffee - the bakes and toasts sell out early, so earlier is better. Luna is closed Tuesdays, opens at 8 the rest of the week, and there is usually a resident dachshund waiting by the glass door.

Signature

The cured-salmon everything-bagel

Luna’s everything-bagel comes piled with silky cured salmon, cream cheese, pickled red onion and a tangle of microgreens - the plate the room is known for, best with a matcha or a filter coffee alongside.

What's good

Distilled from public mentions, no ratings

  • The cured-salmon everything-bagel is the plate regulars come back for.
  • A short bakery counter does real work - bagels, toasts and pastries that sell out early.
  • Calm, unhurried room that suits a slow breakfast rather than a quick takeaway.
