Bongo Java

Your basic good coffee shop! It has what you need and is always busy with students! Great place to work or study!

Very clean, functional, pleasant space, with good service, and good quality coffee. Gotta say though, I have some serious nostalgia for the older, pre-renovations funkiness, heterogeneity and grime. I miss the days when this Bongo Java was the handout space for misfits, goths, and hippies, whereas it is now the prime establishment for well dressed Belmont students and profs. The atmosphere has changed. Probably good for business, but not for ambiance. RIP old Bongo Java. RIP Nun-Bun. RIP old funky Belmont Blvd.

Very good latte. Got ours to go so didn't have a chance to enjoy the atmosphere. Patio looked really nice. Barista was very friendly and provided quick service.

Great breakfast foods and coffee. Outdoor dining. All ages of folks except children. Belmont University across the street.

I was a frequent flyer at Bongo Javas back in the late 90s and never once had a bad experience. Despite so many economical changes since then, I was delighted to tears to see that the quality of service, food, coffees, teas, and atmosphere hasn't diminished at ALL! Many, many happy memories there. Love you, Bongo, always have and always will! Please never change - you set the bar for real coffee shops, and not even a Mind Eraser can take that away!
