43 Best Cafes near Bon Air

“I highly recommend Front Porch for those who are gluten free. I am extremely sensitive and I had no issues. The GF bread was normal size! The Reuben was yummy, the potato salad was delicious and creamy, and the pound cake was so so good!!“

“How can something be so beautiful and so yummy at the same time?! I absolutely love Perk for their coffee drinks, gluten free bagels sandwiches, their staff is the best… you def gotta check em out!“

“I just visited this cafe today and I had a great time! I haven't played many board games since childhood Monopoly battles to the death, but today I learned to play two I had never heard of. The staff were friendly, personable, and knowledgeable, able to suggest games and show us how to play. You can order from a modest selection of food and drinks (including alcohol), but it's really about the games. What a brilliant idea!“

“Front counter staff is friendly and quick and if you've been there, you've likely met the owner, Olaf. He takes great care of his guests. The place is super clean with tons of seating. Clearly, everyone has found out about it because it's busier every time I go—and I almost always run into someone I know. But there's still plenty of seating. High-quality coffee and food, great atmosphere, and you're supporting a local small business.“

“This was my favorite food in Richmond for breakfast/lunch. The people are friendly and patient with questions. The space is warm and inviting, but room for quiet work or reading too. And OMG! the food. I ordered it 3x in 5 days, including some to take home. Don’t miss this gem!“

“Best place in RVA for Breakfast“

This is my fourth time participating with Kip's Southern style hospitality , every time including Mother's Day, has been memorable and I will return with my family and friends soon. God bless Kip and her attentive staff 💓🙏🏼😘“

“My best friend and I scheduled an afternoon tea to celebrate our friendship The Queen’s Library Tea Room was perfectly perfect. The service, food and tea were all amazing. This is a must do in Richmond! We will be back!“

“Awesome dive bar. We went to get a quick dinner. Waitress was amazing and very friendly. Food was great. Grilled tuna sandwich was big and plenty of fries. BLT sandwich was worth the money and potatoe salad was very good. Would go back for sure“

“My favorite is the salmon Paninis! The environment is relaxing, and calm.“

“And great mimosas! Also a nice patio to enjoy the day.“

“Best BLT I’ve ever had staff is super friendly and service was quick and amazing 10/10“

“A little on the pricey side but food was so good, its like I cooked it myself. I was very surprised and happy about that. Usually going out to eat isn't as good as home-cooked meals. Staff was very friendly and even though its not sanitary in my opinion, they have a sitting area with a bunch of children's books and toys for little ones. They even printed out holiday themed menus for children with coloring page on the back. We plan on coming here again.“

“The back patio is amazebeans!“

“Went to grab coffee waited about 15 min for coffee and had to leave it was super slow and lost money .. truly just thought it would be a much quicker experience have never had this issue before but hopefully things will improve“

“Great food, awesome staff.“

“I had the Atlantic omelette and I was so impressed. It truly had lump crab and lobster in the omelette some omelettes when you deal with seafood are skimpy with the crab and lobster, but hands-down Lulu was one of the best and their omelette was truly well done sometimes omelettes are not cooked all the way through. It was just an amazing experience for me, I was thoroughly impressed. I will be coming back lol 😂 I saw 👀 the chicken and red velvet waffles!“

“I enjoyed a Make Your Own breakfast burrito and iced coffee.“

“Delicious! It was a surprise to find the cafe located in a business office park, but it is a perfect spot for local businesses and people who live close by. Chicken salad sandwich was amazing & breakfast muffin with bacon and egg so good time for cake :)“

“We went to Amuse to celebrate our wedding anniversary and Amuse made the evening so very special. Every staff member who spoke to us wished us a happy anniversary.Our server presented us wish specially printed menus that read “Happy Anniversary” as the heading. Our server was the best! So lovely and attentive and very careful and thoughtful about being sure my wife's nut allergy was noted. She even arranged a special nut-free sauce for her entree. We will be returning for more special occasions.“

“Food is always great, and Walt and Rob really care about their customers. The crockpot soups in the winter are to DIE FOR!“

“Whenever I’m in town. I visit here. Love their bagels and vegan options.“

“Best chicken sandwich I ever ate I'm my life..Like the location and atmosphere..Loved the Nehi soda and other drinks they have without having the nanotechnology inside the drinks..Expect to see me as a regular because food was delicious 😋“

“I do not recommend. I want to shop small but this place is not it. Very slow service.“

“Took my German client to this amazing restaurant and she was blissful! I’ve been many times and try to share this phenomenal dining experience with others whenever possible. High quality ingredients, all dishes are made to order and fresh and hot and delicious, generous portions and the bread is to die for! The server was delightful and so was the gentleman running the front. I can’t say enough good things! Go, enjoy!“

“The owner is so sweet! She and her husband are so friendly and nice. Come for the food and for the conversations ^^ she makes great drinks! They have delicious ice cream flavors and a great way to get out of the sun - come check it out!

Also check out these fruit arrangements! So beautiful - she does it all by herself. Ask about these packages!

Also, look at these ice cream flavors - cinnamon churro and cotton candy! You gotta check it out.“

“Absolutely friendly and wonderful staff, great food, and we witnessed a moment of humanity and kindness from a staff member I assume is the manager toward a woman who came in after us that nearly made me cry. The food is great and that’s reason enough to go back, but their mission of community support and visible and heartfelt recognition of the humanity of others in our community will have us going back again and again. Cannot wait to return! 15/10.“

“Great, year-round market!“

“What an amazing place and people! Yesterday was our first time going there and we were blown away by the experience. We received a delicious hot meal, fellowship and groceries. Thank you guys so much!“

“Yum! Their Blanchard coffee selection is yummy. I've only tried 3 drinks, so I'm still choosing a favorite. From the pastry side, great options--muffins are tasty and the sweet potato biscuits are definitely on point. Finally, the ability to eat a panini outside in a courtyard...priceless.“

“Clean, fast cashiers, and everthing you need, plus more“

“Tier 7 provided their private chef services for my birthday this year and I HIGHLY recommend them! The food was delicious, the peach cobbler was melt-in-your-mouth good! The decor was beautiful (I was zero help setting the theme). I really appreciate how easy it was to plan with them. We set the menu in one phone call and Tierra and Team took it from there. The result was an amazing experience! Thank you again!“

“First time eating at First Watch and it was a great lunch.“

“We ordered the Dutch Aunt and Croque Provençal and they were delicious. The potato salad was not to my liking because I’m not a fan of capers and onions in it. However the other people in our party loved it. The restaurant is extremely small so the service was slow. That was to be expected so we just enjoyed each others company while waiting.“

“I love this Café! Everything is so fresh and sold a price.“

“I recently organized a couple of catering orders from The Smoky Mug, and it was an exceptional experience, largely thanks to Dan’s superb accommodations and friendliness. The catering itself exceeded expectations. I highly recommend The Smoky Mug for their top notch BBQ, and kudos to Dan for making our events a resounding success!“

“I was visit my parents and walked through our neighborhood to get some local coffee and breakfast on a Sunday morning. While I couldn’t sit/order inside because of the dogs, the barista was more than accommodating to take my order from their outdoor seating and bring me my food and drink. I don’t think it was on the menu but I ordered and espresso soda (espresso, club soda, vanilla syrup) and the barista was once again very accommodating and made it no problem. It was super good! I also ordered an egg and cheese on an English muffin which was delicious. Seemed like white cheddar and a soft fried egg. Would highly recommend this local place! I also appreciated how early they were open on a Sunday morning. I paid about $11 before tipping.“

“I stopped here to avoid the ubiquitous Starbucks in the area. It did not disappoint. I had an iced tea and a wonderful coffee cake muffin. The menu has a full array of sandwiches and such as well. It's easy to find inside the office building. I will definitely return.“
