Our story
A place built for belonging.
About The Ashlar Cafe
The Ashlar Cafe is a family-owned, veteran-led coffeehouse, ice cream shop, and gathering place at 619 Broad Street in Augusta, Georgia. We are creating a welcoming third place between home and work—somewhere students, families, professionals, artists, and visitors can feel at home.
Our Mission
We exist to help people gather, connect, and build community over exceptional coffee, handcrafted food, sweet treats, and memorable experiences.
Downtown Augusta’s Living Room
From quiet morning coffee and afternoon work sessions to book clubs, open mics, board games, local art, and private gatherings, The Ashlar Cafe is designed for the many ways our neighbors come together.
Thoughtful Hospitality
Owner Heather Vaught and Operations Manager Noah Vaught bring experienced, people-first leadership to every part of the cafe. Their promise is simple: a genuine welcome, thoughtful service, and a place worth returning to.
