Food Scene

This is a fun little restaurant just off of the Riverwalk. The food is good, but the cakes are outstanding! But be warned: one piece can easily serve several people - they're huge!

A smaller menu, but enough options to satisfy most tastes. The space and the offerings definitely fall within the category of Hipster. They serve my favorite La Colombe coffee.

This is foodie food which is reflected in the prices. Lots of farm-to-table fare. There aren't any vegetarian entrees on the menu, but the salads are fantastic.

You'll start to worry you're lost when you drive through the residential neighborhood and condominiums, but keep trusting your GPS because Rae's is a hidden gem! Great seafood, with a variety of Carribean dishes on the menu. There's a good amount of indoor and deck seating, but this place is popular with locals, so large groups should arrive early.

This place gets busy, so it's best to make reservations. They offer a full bar including some creative cocktails, a fantastic selection of cheeses and charcuterie, and some really great entrees (I recommend the risotto).

We moved to Augusta from Gainesville, Florida, where there was a Publix on nearly every corner. So we were thrilled to find one here! They offer a wide selection, and their BOGO sales can't be beat!

Fresh Market has a great deli section of prepared foods you can pop in the mini fridge or heat up in the microwave. But my favorite thing is the olive bar.

This is a family-friendly trampoline park for kids and adults. There is also a good amount of seating on the sidelines for parents who don't want to risk injury or embarrassment (like me).
