What a treat! Thanks Glenn and amazing staff. I walked in looking for zen and they made me feel like I came home from war! So kind and their Mango Peach Kava Bowl, is so delicious and instant calm. In the back patio, Brian greeted me as he is preparing for Pride! Best place to come, for sure!! The atmosphere starts the calm for sure. Something for everyone. I will be back, for sure. Thanks again. 💛

Honestly, I am just not sure I totally “get it”. Wandered in here with a friend. It’s an atmosphere similar to a bar, everyone inside was socializing. It’s all very low key but everyone is drinking this. Kava, if you’ve never tried it, is a very acquired taste. The menu mentions the historical and cultural significance of this drink, which makes me wonder about this type of setting. In any case, you walk up to the bar and order directly. The drink is probably better flavored (we tried it in all its natural glory) but again, maybe it’s typically not consumed so casually. With just a couple of sips, my lips and throat were tingling. It was a fairly relaxing experience, but I’m not so sure it was for me.

I really love this place.My wife and I have been going here for a while now. When we got sober, we were looking for an alternative to be at a bar and drinking alcohol, and this fulfill all of that. We get a nice medicinal drink and are able to relax. Listen to some good music and talk to the incredible staff here. I hear they are even looking to start some karaoke, open mic nights, and even have a trivia night coming up.

This is a very artsy and unique place to relax and connect, I loved the artwork that was all around. I’ve never had Kava before its kinda like an earthy tea but it really helps you relax. You definitely can bring a sketchbook or paper to write it there is a creative atmosphere, also people play chess and are open to talk. It was a nice experience
