A unique location, but very inviting and homey!…read more I came here years ago when I lived here, and since I'm visiting the area, I decided to drop by! I ordered their seasonal drink, the purple oasis, and was surprised by how well the flavors worked together! I also ordered a bacon egg and cheese bagel sammie, which was decent, but filling :) before leaving, I picked up some beans and a sticker to take home. I highly recommend for your next study session or catch-up with friends!

There are coffee shops designed to make you feel comfortable, and then there are places that simply…read moreare. Buona Caffe is the latter. Sitting along busy Central Avenue, it's actually pretty easy to pass right by if you aren't looking for it. From the outside, it looks like what it is -- an old Augusta bungalow that found a second life as a neighborhood coffeehouse. Walk inside, though, and something happens. Everything slows down. The rooms are small. The furniture doesn't necessarily match. The chairs look like thousands of people have already found their favorite position in them. There's a porch, little tables tucked into different spaces, and none of it feels staged or designed to manufacture some trendy "coffeehouse aesthetic." In fact, I noticed something while sitting here: I don't see electrical outlets conveniently positioned at every table. I don't see a sea of laptops. Instead, I hear locals talking about doctor appointments, seeing the grandkids this weekend, and how ridiculously hot Augusta has been. People are simply here. I came in expecting to grab a coffee and leave. I have places to go and things to do today. But I sat down. Then I started looking around. Then I realized I didn't really want to leave. At some point they had probably been calling my drink for several minutes and I hadn't even noticed. And then I ordered a second coffee. That might be the best review I can give Buona Caffe. The coffee itself is absolutely on point. The staff knows what they're serving, makes thoughtful recommendations and genuinely seems to care about getting it right. But what makes this place special is everything surrounding the cup. It almost feels like they don't completely realize what they have here -- or maybe they do and simply have no desire to make it anything more than what it already is. As this part of Augusta continues to grow, with new homes and businesses coming into the area, I hope places like Buona Caffe remain exactly as they are. Sometimes you need a place between where you've been and wherever you have to go next. Somewhere neutral where you can sit down, let a little time pass, decompress and breathe before heading back out onto Central Avenue. Buona Caffe is that place.

I went in for coffee, but ended up trying the blackberry tea (because I'm a sucker for blackberry…read morestuff) and a croissant. The food was good and reasonably priced. Service was friendly, The cafe is nice and quiet. It's a comfortable place to hang out. I'll visit again.

I guess I'm not a "real" connoisseur of coffee because it was ok. Not horrible but not "I gotta…read morecome back tomorrow" either. I could not taste the flavor that I asked for and there was no recommendation or suggestion of remaking it. I felt like "get what you get and don't pitch a fit!" Instead of making it "right". AND I like hot drinks to to be HOT, not lukewarm...I feel like I have to consume it quicker when it's just lukewarm as opposed to being HOT, I can savor it longer. Just my thoughts.

This might've been a bad day that we came in and I'd be willing to give it another shot…read more Firstly, we came in and were seated at a table that had all sorts of wine on it (looked like a prep table). I will say it was slightly busy when we came in but our server took about 25 min to get our drinks in. It took over an hour to get our order (4 people). In between that time our server did not check in on us at all and didn't apologize about the wait. Several people that came in after us got our food before us. 2 out of the 4 things we got were not hot at all. On top of that 3 of our items came out at the same time and the 4th came 20 min later. Additionally, we had a baby with us who was getting fussy since we had been there for over 2 hours. When the waitress came with the check, we told her that the food was very late and cold. We asked for some of our entrees to be taken off. She never apologized but took 15% off as well as beverages. Disappointing experience for such a highly reviewed place.

We both ordered coffees. They use Monin syrup here and dairy free milk options included coconut which I was super excited for! I ordered a s'mores latte and it was yummy.

I got the TCB delight iced with whole milk and the hash brown focaccia. Both were around $8 which may seem like a lot, but I say you get your moneys worth. The TCB delight was so flavorful and sweet enough where it's not too sweet. The hash brown focaccia... I have no words. There's breakfast sausage, hashbrown, eggs, cheese... breakfast loaf!! It can feed 2 people. It was so cheesy, a little salty, but perfect breakfast in a loaf of focaccia. The service was nice too! It did get busy around 10am, so it may be harder to find seating inside. It also does get loud and I did see some families there with their kids which is completely fine. If you want quiet, I'd say go earlier in the day when they open. Overall, great food and drinks, amazing service, and definitely recommend!!

That's when I knew that we were going to be lifetime customers. It's super inviting, and very kid/family friendly. My daughter loved running around and looking at all of the cool stuff that is placed in the shop for sale from some of the local small businesses. There is a little coloring station set up in the shop, and that also caught my daughters attention (she loves to color). On top of all of that, she LOVES Miss Jennifer! This is not your average tea shop. Are you are looking for a place to hang out, decompress, full of laughs, very nice people, and a place to also bring your little ones? THIS IS IT! On top of being a great place to relax and hang out for all ages, Jennifer also gives you tons of options for teas, shakes, and coffees! Every single one I have tried has been delicious! These are low calorie and sugar free, so there is no feeling bad for consumption of anything later! For comparison, her shakes are 20 Oz and have less calories than a tall standard Starbucks Frappuccino. The teas will give you that extra kick in the pants that you may need to get through the day. I don't live in the area locally (from out of state), but I have family that lives in the area and visit fairly often. I bought some DIY take home teas for when I am back home. They have not disappointed! I haven't even mentioned the best part yet. She also has a drink menu for kids! It's unique because all of the drinks are named either after a popular kids movie or character! The drinks are also sugar free and caffeine free. My daughter loves them! You really can't go wrong with anything! When we go in, she knows where we are and knows that she is about to get a nice little treat (and it's also nice knowing that she won't get crazy from drinking the drinks due to them being sugar free and caffeine free). She gets really happy too when she sees Miss Jennifer! I'm telling you, if you haven't been yet and are in the Augusta area, GO! Take the whole family! If you want the full experience, I highly recommend hanging out for a bit so that you can take it all in. You won't find anything like this (or even close to as awesome) in the Augusta, Evans, Martinez, or Grovetown area! Warning: it is highly likely that you will be hooked after your first visit.
