Mike is a one of a kind awesome relic to have here in Augusta.

They have a lot more than books too, saw guitars, toys, puzzles, and there's also a buy back section as well to help incentivize you to come back. Was definitely fun to walk through. Expect to pay regular full price for the books, but they have a lot of unusual items (ex. I saw Britney Spears Monopoly Game). There are random 'mystery boxes' for example you can get 50 cds/dvds if you are a gambler or just curious to see what you end up with. The store itself looks like it just popped up in the middle of a giant empty parking lot, so there's no shortage of parking spots.

I've gotten few Lego sets here and just about every one of the portrait ones. I come around every few days and there's always a new set that's usually hard to find in stores like Walmart or Target. Picked up the sunflower set this time and it was priced the same as what you'd pay on Amazon. Was fortunate to get the only one they had and looking forward to building it! This location also has a Starbucks located in the back, so you can sip on some drinks & snacks while reading. If you're a Pokemon Go player, there are multiple gyms and poke stops so I also like to chill and play the game at Starbucks.

Thankfully we saw them next to the Mexican restaurant downtown (El paso) we dined in for lunch. The timing on that! We didn't know they moved. We went on record store day. Which is always on Black Friday. This location is much bigger and has more vinyl and products. They now have used VHS, CD's, vinyl players, and more! In the back is where they will have live bands every so often. Everything is categorized by genres which is easy to find and organized. We ended up getting RSD Ghost album, some used and new vinyl. I also made a new friend. Their pet dog Otis which he chilled with me on the couch. This is the best record store in Augusta and I highly recommend you check them out.

Vinyls (of course), CD's, DVD's, video games and classic consoles, shirts, posters, and even a stage for live bands. The staff are all friendly and welcoming, especially their dog Otis, who mainly chills on the couch waiting for a leg to lay his cute little head on. The prices on everything are very reasonable too. My lady and I stopped by on Black Friday Record Store Day and scored some great vinyls. We were stoked to see Colemine Records, a Loveland, OH company, represented in the store too. This is definitely a great record store!

Such a great bookstore! Great selection and staff was super friendly. Highly recommend.read more

The Book Tavern had that wonderful afternoon hum today, the kind that tells you a bookstore isn't…read morejust surviving but actually thriving. It was busy in the best possible way: people drifting between shelves with purpose, a small line forming at the register, and an author set up at a front table signing books while chatting with readers. Moments like that feel like a quiet victory for local culture, a reminder that #LocalBooks still matter and that Augusta shows up for them. I lingered longer than I meant to because the browsing here pulls you in. The front tables were stacked with new releases and staff picks, and the red dot discount display added that little spark of treasure‑hunt energy. The range of subjects is part of what makes the place feel so alive. Politics and gender identity sit alongside fiction and romance, sci fi and fantasy, table games, cookbooks, and a genuinely thoughtful section on Augusta history. It's the kind of curation that reflects a community rather than a trend algorithm. And of course, there's the upstairs. It's one of the shop's best features. Quieter, a little more contemplative, with shelves that reward slow wandering. A busy bookstore on a weekend afternoon is a small civic joy. The Book Tavern manages to feel both rooted and evolving, a place where Augusta's literary life gathers itself and keeps going. [Review 212 of 2026 - 913 in Georgia - 25401 overall]

If you decide to cancel it at any time (you have to call a number and talk to someone that way), it takes a long time to convince the customer service rep to stop pitching sales/offers/buts at you. The woman I talked to spoke incredibly fast and ended each bit with an "okay?" so that if I hadn't been paying attention, an automatic reply could have ended up with me right back where I started, plus a few new "perks". I haven't had so much trouble convincing someone to cancel my membership since AOL.
