Brunch is serious business in Augusta and after one visit to The Brunch House of Augusta I…read morecompletely understand why this place stays packed. While in town for the weekend my husband and I wanted brunch somewhere unique to Augusta instead of another chain restaurant, and after scrolling Yelp and seeing all the glowing reviews we decided to give this Black owned, family operated spot a try. I noticed online that you can make a reservation for a $20 fee that gets deducted from your check. At first I was a little surprised, but after seeing how busy this place is, it makes total sense. We decided to roll the dice without a reservation anyway. When we arrived on a Saturday morning there were already several people waiting outside. There isn't really an indoor waiting area, so the hospitable hostess took my name and phone number and kindly asked us to wait outside. Later I noticed the sign explaining the process. She quoted us a 40-minute wait, but thankfully we were seated in about half that time. Inside, the restaurant is quaint and cozy with a classic diner feel complete with counter seating and booths. The ambiance is casual and welcoming. If you have a larger party, there are a couple of outdoor tables that appear to accommodate around six people, but personally I think this spot is best enjoyed with a smaller group. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and kept everything moving smoothly despite the busy brunch crowd. My husband ordered the chicken and waffles while I went with the Garden City breakfast bowl loaded with veggies and home fries plus a salmon croquette on the side. Every single thing tasted homemade and full of flavor. This is what Southern comfort food is supposed to taste like. My husband said the chicken was seasoned well and fried perfectly, and the waffle paired with it beautifully. My breakfast bowl reminded me of the kind of breakfast my grandma used to make, comforting, flavorful, and cooked with care. Portion sizes were just right,  enough to leave satisfied without feeling miserable afterward. Prices were also very reasonable for the quality of food and service we received. Stellar customer service, delicious food, and a welcoming atmosphere. If I ever find myself back in Augusta, this will absolutely be one of my repeat stops.

We made a reservation and paid the $20 deposit to hold our spot. We were so excited to have a…read morenice place to meet our son for breakfast while he was in town. We arrived a few minutes before our reservation time and was told sorry there has been a mixup we don't have any tables. It will be 20 minutes. We could not wait as our son had an appointment that morning. So they told us we could sit outside at a folding table and get our drinks and place our order and they would sit us when the table was open. We said ok. After getting very hot and bitten over and over with gnats we walked up to hostess stand to see when our table would open. She was calling in a party to be seated. I asked why are they being seated when you told us next open table since we had a paid for reservation. She said ooops that was an error. She said but another table will Open in 5 minutes or so. We were so uncomfortable in the heat and gnats that we asked for a refund of our deposit. It seems as if The place is very mismanaged. The coffee is light brown water. To say we were disappointed is an understatement.

Just like my time in the military, I am driven to arrive places early. It was Sunday and I elected to sit outside to avoid the churchy folks inside.

Our server was a great girl. She knew we were gonna sit there for a while amd catch up. And she knew that we wouldn't really have a very big ticket. I knew it too, and i'm a big tipper. I absolutely love sitting outside just having my coffee and and catching up with my sister. She'll be seventy this year, but she sure doesn't look or act like it. The menu at this place has something for everyone.

The first guy was complaining he was waiting already 30 mins for his 830 pickup order. I was told my order just came thru because I chose 9. Uh, 9 is the pickup not when I expected them to get the order. 40 mins later I came back and nobody acknowledged me for 10 mins. I asked someone and they said it still wasn't ready. Then someone a minute later asked me what I was waiting on and it was indeed ready and the first person just didn't check because I saw it there the whole time in the back counter. Ordered the waffle sandwich and it had zero taste and 2 strips of bacon that were severely undercooked. My daughter got the Classic with home fries and they were soggy, and the toaste wasn't toasted at all. My wife got the creme brulee French toast and was telling me it tasted like lemon. Yep, she bit into several lemon seeds as they didn't even take care not to get them in the food. Never again.

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.
