50 Best Coffee Shops near Bon Air

“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!“

“Great xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxcccxxxxxxxxxxxxx“

“Today, I ate here with my dad for the very first time! The food was delicious, and the people who work there are very, VERY friendly! They're also very welcoming to anyone who comes in! I truly hope to come back here very soon! I told the guy working there that I was going to give them a five star review, and he was very grateful!“

“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!“

“Went to Surrounding Counties today for the first time, tried one of the turkey Bacon, egg and cheese Kolaches it was wonderful! The Cinnamon bun was really good also! They also went to the farmers market and were making goodies from what they found there…5 Stars!“

“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.“

“Wonderful, friendly people. I visit this area often for my small business and have found my new favorite coffee spot in this small business. The coffee is delicious as well as the muffins. Definitely recommend everyone stopping by and grabbing a cup.“

“I am from out of town, but spend a few weeks a year in RVA. This is by far the best coffee that I've found in the area, and one of my favorite coffee shops in the country. They expertly pull every shot with attention to detail and care. The drip is also delicious and always fresh. They don't have lots of syrups and flavors (only vanilla) but that is because the coffee speaks for itself and isn't need of added flavoring. If you love coffee, Paix is a place you must check out when in RVA.“

“Someone showed me this spot freshman year and whenever I crave boba when I'm back in the city, trust that I'll come here. T.T Lounge has been here for more than 20 years and it makes a lot of sense because the owner is honest and hardworking.

He cooks the boba the old fashioned way- so it's not precooked and hard like other chains. And the banana milk tea has actual fresh mashed banana in it and not some cheap flavored syrup. This isn't some trendy, hype shop, it's a long running community staple that I hope to see other students continue support for years to come ❤️“

“My new spot to drop in for a cup, and to pick up a special bag for home. Relaxed atmosphere and nothing beats the smell of fresh coffee.“

“Good coffee, good food, cool vibe!“

“Great local coffee house with tasty food options. I’m always in the mood for all-day breakfast items when I’m on a work trip, so I tried the pork sausage, egg and cheese on sourdough toast, and a delicious latte. Food and coffee were outstanding. It’s obvious the staff puts care in the prep of every sandwich. The toast was toasted perfectly with the right amount of crunch, eggs were lightly seasoned with pepper before whisking, and the cheese was nice and “melty”. Get your order “for here” , and Chill to the beats of new and old school jams while you enjoy this little local gem.“

“This cafe feels like the type of place where you can sit alone without feeling awkward. I came in around 4 PM with headphones and a book, and nobody bothered me even though I stayed quite a while. The hazelnut latte was smooth and not burnt tasting like some coffee shops nearby. I also liked that they kept the music at a normal volume. The only small issue was one chair near my table being shaky, but a staff member swapped it out after noticing me adjusting it repeatedly. Thoughtful service overall.“

“This is the best coffee shop in Richmond, hands down. I've been living in Richmond for a year now, and this place has meant a lot to me. Everyone is so friendly and nice, has been very kind when I am having tough days. Also the best coffee, and great music playing!“

“Excellent coffee and pastries! Stop by and enjoy the great atmoshere.“

“This place is fantastic, we came here after a date night for a sweet treat and coffee and ended up with an assortment of things. Every thing they make is absolutely delicious, with complex yet delicate flavors.
The place also has very comfortable seating and great atmosphere, it's a great place to slow down and enjoy the food.
I highly recommend their coconut cake, they make it themselves and has this absolutely amazing texture with a syrup that makes it gooey and chewy in the best way possible.
Their Turkish delights and coffee are also a must have. I will definitely be back.“

“My favorite coffee spot in Richmond ☕️“

“Loved it!! Had not been there in years-will definitely be back!!“

“The food here is always so delicious! The chopped cheese is my absolute favorite. The owner is such a nice gentleman, very polite and respectful. This is my favorite spot to take all my friends!“

“Small shop with a Rustic vibe with really good coffee and bagels. This is not the coffee shop to try to work in. The brown sugar cardamom latte is really good and have the perfect cardamom flavor that isn't overpowering. Really good service. I like that there is a free library outside and they have free community meals for people who needs it.“

“Guys. I thought I loved crossroads before. Then I tried their home made pop tart pastry? And I experienced a new level of limerance. This lil shop is crushing it. From their expansive selection of freshly baked pastries, delicious and perfectly pulled espresso shots and what I can only assume (will soon verify) is a scrumptious breakfast, they haven't disappointed me once. The barista was friendly and efficient, the girl who took my order was helpful, friendly, sweet and just happy to be there, saw her dancing around a bit, SO cute 🥰 This feels like an awesome place to be around, come check it out!!!

Beautiful little shop, friendly baristas and delicious Thai coffee! Perfect amount of foam and tender sweetness balanced by rich, bold espresso. Definitely making this my summer spot 💚“

“Adorable bakery, lovely location in Church Hill! I’m so happy they’ve had the resilience to get up and running again since the fire. The pastries are unique, varied, and delicious with a fantastic texture to each. I certainly recommend ordering two days ahead if you know your plans!“

“Delightful staff (they really care about the kitties and the coffee).Delicious drinks. The cutest ambiance and adorable merch !“

“I was helped by a barista named Bri who was so sweet and engaging in conversation. My drink came out delicious and I believe there were people in training who made sample drinks for some of us in the lobby for us to practice. Double berry matcha was pretty good gotta say. Thank you to everyone and the nice gentleman who made my drink too. Super friendly“

“Best espresso I’ve had in the U.S. ⭐️
Sandwiches are very tasty 😋
My wife had a matcha lemonade and was really good.
Service is friendly and efficient
We sat outdoors but indoors is very nice too, good music.“

“Ice cream was so creamy. It was probably the best ice cream I’ve ever had.“

“This is a great coffee shop, very local Vibe with great drinks at a reasonable price.
There are lots of extras like some fun books, a very nice selection of simple syrups and stickers for sale. Side note the restroom was clean and well stocked.“

“I love this location so much, the drinks are always a 10/10 but a few of the employees are not up to the 7brew customer service standard. I understand a card reader not working but you don’t need to have a bad attitude about it infront of the customer“

“We love their commitment to great food, their spirit of innovation, and the many gluten-free options they offer!“

“An amazing place of worship 🛐 people are very friendly and welcoming 💗“

“Went today for the first time and got a chicken salad wrap! Greg was super friendly and quick, and the chicken salad was very good!!

Will be back in the future!

(P.S the building looks like a corporate office in the outside but don’t let that confuse you)“

“I stopped by on my way to work and was not disappointed. The service was friendly and quick. I had a pain au chocolate and an iced coffee today. I do recommend it and next time I’ll sit outdoors and work on some stuff.“

“I bought some Dark as Dark from the grocery store! My wife likes dark roast! She usually uses a creamer. I drink mine black! This has to be the smoothest dark roast I have ever tried! I usually end up with a bitter aftertaste with the dark roasts I have tried so far. Not with this. We bought a grinder thinking that may be the problem but even with fresh beans lots of dark roasts still give that bitter aftertaste. This is tasty all the way through! I’ll be buying this from now on and I like the fact that we will be supporting a Va business as well. We will have to try out one of your locations in Richmond some time!“

“Tara makes my day every time I go through the Drive Thru! Remembering my car or our last conversation. She is very thoughtful and the entire staff has the best energy! Is this what I’ve been missing by not visiting them before? So glad I started frequenting the Forest Hill Starbucks! ☕️“

“What's not to love about Stir Crazy? It's the ideal coffee shop. Nice, friendly neighborhood sort of place on MacArthur, very popular with all ages and for good reasons. The best thing about the place is the staff, they are just the greatest, every single one of them. I can't say enough good things about them. I'm a retired old fogey and I go there a lot; I am very comfortable there.“

“Amazing place. Ben, the barista, was amazing. He made the best lattes. He had everything down to a science.“

“Italian coffee and Espresso machines with experience and professionalism, commercial and for home, traditional and super automatic.“

“My favorite coffee spot in Richmond ☕️“

“We held our after-Cotillion party at Coco + Hazel. Our group of a dozen 12 year old girls loved the AMAZING ice cream creations and the super fun and funky atmosphere perfect for lots of group selfies! Such a fun spot!“

“I’m close to 70 years old and have tried many coffee roasters. This is the place I come to every time my supply runs low. I have tried about 10 different beans from this roaster. I keep coming back to Colombian because if it’s chocolatey, complex flavor. I usually combine it with a small amount of Sumatra bean to give it a little more smoky spice flavor.I don’t use a fancy machine to produce coffee. In fact, I gave my espresso machine to my son. For the past two years, I’ve used the, “clever dripper.“ The combination of Carytown coffee beans, and the clever dripper is heaven on earth. Lori and Annie know what they are doing. Once you try these beans, you won’t go anywhere else.“

“Visited twice this weekend Friday and Sunday afternoon for tea ☕️ each time the staff were so friendly and helpful. I’ve always loved this location and people. My favorite location for the past 18-20 years thank you all so much.“

“I love this location so much. All of the opening baristas are super nice and friendly, and they work fast, too. I’m usually here right after I get off a night shift and need something to keep me awake on the drive home, and the nice baristas are just the cherry on top.“

“Excellent cocktails, oysters, atmosphere, and service!! Great spot for a date night.“

“Friendly service and great coffee“
