Grassroots Kava House

Went with a couple friends and didn't know what to get so we got the Kava Experience. For $15 we got three different drinks: traditional, s'mores, and the Kava Mule. Definitely a cool experience I would recommend it! Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Very relaxed atmosphere with was nice.

I’ve come to this location a few times, and every time I’m reminded not to come back. Almost every experience I have with the kava - tenders here they are super rude. Especially tonight, my friend had gone up to the bar to ask for the wifi password and with an attitude he gave it, they’re bothered by everything. He didn’t even give me the correct drink I asked for and I felt uncomfortable to ask for the right one. I’ve been going to kava bars consistently for years, and I enjoy the drinks here, unfortunately it’s not somewhere I want to spend my money anymore, nor should anyone else.

It was very clean and I loved the atmosphere. This was my first time being here and I ordered a double ohana kava with cream, and when the tender handed it to me it literally looked like just cream. I could taste the kava at least, but it was very weak.

20/10. Highly recommend this establishment. This eclectic kava bar is definitely one of a kind. The staff is very knowledgeable of their products and always have given me the best service. They have something for everyone here... coffee, teas, kombucha, CBD drinks, vegan COOKIES CREAM PIES😍, and the absolute best Kava in town!! I've been coming here for 4 years and never once had a negative experience. Give em a try!

Great place to work that isn’t packed. Wish there were some more substantial tables for the “comfier” seating in the workspace upstairs but if you score a seat at the table or bar it’s easy to work all day without feeling intrusive or that someone is waiting for your spot. Their tea is amazing as well.

Being a newbie on the Kava scene, a friend introduced me to this place upon my very first visit to Florida. Cool spot with a mixed crowd and great staff. They were super friendly and informative about their drinks. Cool modern atmosphere. Livelier downstairs by bar, but if looking for a quiet, noise-free zone, try the upstairs and/or its balcony overlooking Central Ave (there's a separate entrance in the back). They even grow their own herbs and sell local pastries (delicious -- must try!). If you're not into Kava or the other botanical drinks they offer, they do serve coffee, as well. Enjoyed their espresso. St. Pete is a magical town! My stay was enhanced by my visit here. Loved it and will definitely return for my next visit.

I went there two weeks ago on a Saturday afternoon and got the 40 winks iced tea. It was very tasty. I went back the next Saturday morning and got the ginger peach tea which was excellent also! The atmosphere and the music is chill and the staff are friendly. A great place to hang out or get carry out during these mask wearing times.

The spot is really neat as far as location and ambiance but the staff seem to be a little stand off-ish and not very helpful and informative. You have to know exactly what you want and the menu and syrups when you go to order otherwise it’s hit or miss. I’m sure because of the novelty of enthnobotanical teas that many customers are naive and have a lot of questions and they probably just get annoyed by that.

For a Kava bar, I was surprised with how rude the customer service was. Asked a few questions about kava and the guy acted like I just ran over his dog.

Ordered an orange creamsicle and I felt like I had tasted the collected sins of the entirety of human history.

Hands down, worst kava bar I've ever been to. Nice decorations though.

Pretty cool building, got a neat upstairs section with a balcony and some cool homemade furniture, good for hanging out.
Service and products were very subpar. It wasnt particularly busy but it felt awkward and difficult trying to get the bartender's attention, and the drinks were pretty disappointing to be honest.
Maybe if I came on a different night with someone else working, the experience would have been better.
