    Yuca cheese bites, sandwiches, smoothie
    Avni S.

    Awesome local Ecuadorian coffee shop located right off Central Ave. Great patio seating for enjoying a coffee in the warm weather. We ordered 3 different sandwiches (all able to be modified for vegetarian/vegan tastes), coffee, and a smoothie. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, as it was our first time here. The coffee was freshly brewed, and served hot. The smoothie was equally great, a unique blend of bananas, coffee, and other ingredients. I especially liked the bread used for the sandwiches. The yuca cheese bites are a must try if you enjoy cheese bread! Will definitely be back, a great spot to sit outside and enjoy the atmosphere.

    A very busy location and the food is fantastic! Super cozy vibes and the workers do great. One thing to note is that this place is pricey for a cafe, but the Detroit Style Pizza we got (Sangolqui) tasted so good, it came with a sauce and some chili flakes with oregano and it definitely boosted flavor. A wonderful location good for a lil cozy date too!

    QUALITY experience for any coffee connoisseur My husband were in town visiting family and stopped in thinking we would grab a latte and head out and ended up sitting down for almost 2 hours!! We sipped on cashew milk lattes with house made syrups and enjoyed flatbreads and sandwiches that were DELICIOUS. The bread was to die for! We needed up purchasing a house syrup - Strawberry Rose! The staff was extremely friendly, too! Leslie took such good care of us!! We sat outside and it was the most gorgeous day and perfect atmosphere to catch up with family and try new things!

    I stopped in before my yoga class. I've been a member at Space yoga for about a year now and couldn't believe that I had not been to this coffee shop that's right next-door. I wasn't much in the mood for coffee so I ordered a smoothie. At the bargain price of $10, really enjoyed this smoothie. I experienced great service during my visit. I'm looking forward to another visit for a coffee and breakfast.

    What an adorable little cafe! The staff was beyond sweet. As I sat and watched them interact with customers and make coffee....everything they did was done with such care and intention. Even the lady in the kitchen preparing food. You don't see that often. You can tell they take pride in what they do. The bagel was clearly made in house yum! Coffee was unique so I tried something a little different and was pleasantly impressed.

    This is definitely a new vibe for Augusta, a cafe that promises the taste of Ecuador and offers a distinctive selection and quality to match. While I am not much of a coffee person, I thought it worthwhile to sample the pastries, and received a detailed introduction to their various options. In addition, I always appreciate when a coffee place does put reputable effort into their non-coffee options, and the tea here was an impressively fresh-brewed show. Not a large amount of tea, but they managed to extract an enormous amount of cinnamon flavor into it. Their pastries were based on a yeasty bread (no corn here, unlike many South American restaurants), and the sandwich I got was a tomato basil kind of thing with a massive and very filling amount of fresh, rich cheese hidden amongst an otherwise delicate baguette. The overall quality was certainly well worth coming back for more.

    The best coffee experience in Augusta. Lovely atmosphere, kind-hearted and knowledgeable staff. Try the panela syrup with your coffee.

    I ordered a Cotopaxi and loved that they are making everything from scratch! Ecuadorian coffee syrup, and cashew milk, all taste very clean. I cannot wait to taste their homemade bread on my next visit! Would just love free WiFi

    Hazelnut spread filled gusanitos
    Melanie S.

    It's been a while since I've visited this business (mostly the hours don't work with my schedule) but they are the friendliess business. I came twice in one day about 2 hours apart. They even remembered my name on my 2nd visit I was impressed. The menu is definitely different and theres a lot I've never heard of but they really spend time explaining the items. The first visit I got the ambato. Probably my new favorite drink. I loved the strawberry rose flavors together. The gusanito is a yeast roll filled with sweet filling (they had hazelnut and a cookie butter filling....I opted for the hazelnut one)....so delicious! My second visit I got the cafe con Leche iced. I asked for suggestion for the milk option and sweetner and was suggested cashew milk and panela. It was creamy and just the right amount of sweetness. I also got the bombas....mine was turkey and gouda...it was warmed so when I got it it was warm and crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside with melty cheese. It came with mustard that was the perfect pairing (and I don't even like mustard). Highly recommend thr bomba....it's an elevated turkey and cheese. If you don't want to miss out on an item I would suggest going early. They are focused on not wasting so they only make a certain amount.

    Pour over with simple syrup side
    Jesse G.

    Refreshingly creative and thoughtful. Lots of variation in kinds of coffee and flavors. I got a pour over which was served accompanied by a caramelized simple syrup and extra pour in a scientific beaker. How cool is that! In store made bagels. Creative bomba sandwich - you have to see it to believe it. And staff that explains all their amazing creative concoctions. Come try this place if you're in Augusta..a must do!

    Sandwich Menu

    2nd time here and it did not disappoint! I ordered Cotopaxi hot coffee and a sandwich Sierra. Great service, upbeat and relaxing place.

    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.
