Review Bongo East - Nashville

Jay Bakenhaus

I took a friend of mine to grab a coffee there and catch up with each other. It was my first time there, but she had been there quite a few times. The men's bathroom, as the video shows, is worth the price of admission 🤣. Plenty of colors 😁. I love all the board games and the laid back environment. We will definitely be stopping by again in the near future 🙏

A really nice place to meet and have coffee and play board games. They have a really good collection, and are one of the uncommon board game cafes that actually sell board games. We ended up visiting the cafe multiple times while I was in Tennessee and I really enjoyed the place.

This is probably my favorite coffee shop in Nashville, and I've never even played games here. The seasonal drinks are just so good and the staff is really nice. I also love that they're open later because it's hard to find good coffee after 6pm.

Great causal place for a coffee to go or spending hours playing board games. Good food, too. It can be crowded so service isn't guaranteed to be quick but the coffee's with the wait.

Went for an afternoon coffee. We got two cortados. Mine was a little burnt, but my husband's was perfect. We browsed the games but couldn't decide on one. There were so, so many. When we plan to stay a while, well definitely pick a game.

Great place to relax with friends and play games. The wifi is not great. The breakfast burrito 🌯 is delicious! I've never been disappointed by the drinks they offer. They have tea, coffee, and beer/wine. Their monthly specials are creative beverages that are delicious.

This is afeel good place where the coffee is just the best. Don't ask me about the food. It's okay. The best thing Bongo East does is make kicking Java. The atmosphere is loads of fun. They draw a fine crowd.

Great place to drink a nice cup of coffee, they have great variety, and food they have is delicious, I wish they have even more options in the menu, what they have is good! But when you become a regular, you start wanting to try new things 😊. They do that to their coffee menu, is seasonal. But fir the food would be good to have the same seasonal extras. Great place and service is always good, as everything in East nashville the parking is the only problem, there is a couple of pay parking lots close or walk a couple streets for free park on the street.

I love this coffee shop. It's in my favorite area of Nashville -- 5 Points. Great walking area with bars and restaurants and shops, especially during the warmer months. The staff is awesome, helpful and nice. I always get a dirty chai and the garden veg bagel (literally amazing I've tried to make it at home and it's just not as good). But what makes this place even more amazing is all the GAMES! It's such a great spot to come on a date or with the kids. I've brought my son in often over the years, he gets his hot chocolate or apple cider and a doughnut or pastry, and we play board games. It's an awesome place to try out a few new games. They can be expensive to purchase, so I love finding a new game here and testing it out. They also have a nice selection for sale. I've also been on dates here -- they have a nice selection of local beers and wine and some great menu selections. They also host game nights, so it's an all-around awesome local community feel. Much love to the people at Bongo East/Game Point!

Covid update - total transformation in customer experience. Well thought out walk up order window and online ordering ahead. Mural in bathroom is totally amazing.

Cool idea to sell board games in a coffee shop! Definitely a different vibe, in a cool way. A lot of the time nice coffee shops can feel sort of pretentious but these guys weren’t at all. Super rad spot with good coffee and good service 🤙🏼

East Nashville has a lot of coffee options and all are pretty good, but there's something about Bongo East. The bathroom art is killer and parking all around. You'll love the little park next door and the wifi signal is terrific. Parking available all along the street.

Creative caffeinated drinks, board games, and sweets! My SO and our friends love this cafe and can spend hours there playing different games. I have also enjoyed every drink I've ever ordered.
