Baristas here are trained well and the seasonal drinks a sure bet. Simply order from the menu and receive satisfaction!
Beth KMay 5, 2022A true hidden gem for a modern board game fan. Its got all the essential board games, chill vibes, food and wine/beer.
Theresa RoldanApril 3, 2016Really good vanilla latte....but don't get it if you're in a rush! Muffins were great too
- The Roasting Co moved to the Gulch. This location is Bongo East now. Check in at Bongo East from now on to stay hip!
- This place has the best staff and food. Thankful for that! Have a radio bomb if you're a vegetarian.
Logan PottsFebruary 25, 2010Enjoy the atmosphere, take off your headphones, talk to a stranger when you get a refill, enjoy the hum of the roaster, at Bongo Java we want to create an experience based on community & great coffee.
Bring a paper, relax and enjoy the music and brew. Use any pretense to check out artwork in restroom.- This location is no longer the Roasting Co! They moved to the Gulch. Check in on Foursquare to Bongo East!
Jesse BriggsApril 8, 2018Play all the games. They even have s game master who will tell you how to play.
We stop here every time we're in town. Eastside Bomb every time.
Radio bomb everything bagel with sun dried tomato pesto no cream cheese please!
- I'm a fan of the Iced Americano. Great in the Nashville summer.
The fall pumpkin latte with real pumpkin syrup is AH-mazing!
- Try a BLT Bomb on a cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese. It's freaking delicious.
Iced soy mocha. Cream cheese bagel with salmon. My favorite.
Jennifer sNovember 21, 2013The chai is VERY mild. Almost no flavor at all. Kind of disappointing. I'll have to try something better next time.
Slowest wifi in all of Nashville, but the coffee's good.
Warm and fuzzy with a ceral killer will hold you for hours
- Officially the slowest wifi in the Western world. Bring your own or work elsewhere.
- Bob PJuly 29, 2012Not very impressed...the tables are crappy. Drinks are expensive...usually loud. Not a place to go and relax.

"Best legit coffee shop in Nashville. Skilled baristas know what they are doing and it shows. Awesome atmosphere and building as well. Just don't expect to get your coffee with syrups or anything."
