I have really enjoyed my experience at Muddy Lotus. I have been to many kava bars in the past few years but this one has really shown an appreciation for the culture, the kavatender was very educated. I will for sure be back to the amazing vibes here.
Muddy Lotus is has a very chill, and laid back environment inside. The people are very nice. The kratom is brewed very good and so is the kava. The kava tender Dillon is awesome to talk with, and is very knowledgeable on the products available. If you're down to try something new, visit Muddy Lotus Tea!!
Muddy Lotus has a great vibe. There is a great assortment of drinks to choose from with something for everyone. The crowd is diverse and it is a great place to meet up with friends or make new ones. So glad it's here!
I went for the Drum Circle and left with a cup of Queen Bee Kava. The Drum Circle was laid back and friendly and I will definitely be going back to Drum again. The Kava Tea is, I think, an acquired taste. I enjoyed the additions that made the Queen Bee sweet, however, the straight up brew was too bitter and earthy for my tastes. The barista was a wonderful guy who let me do a little taste test and gave me a bit of education on Kava. All-in-all, a delightful way to spend an evening in Ocala.
This Dude ! Dillon is so knowledgeable! Whipped me up a jammers Tea! The spot is off the chain! What a killer vibe & the ambiance is so Zen! Loved my first time!
My first time coming here and trying Kava! The space was beautiful and relaxing with lots of cool art, Dillon was super knowledgeable and kind, and the whole place felt very clean. There are plenty of places to sit without feeling crowded too! The kava flavors were interesting and fun and everyone who came in was so nice and friendly. You can feel that the staff is happy and the owners take pride in what they do/provide. My only complaint (not worth taking a star off because maybe I just missed something) is the pricing. When I looked at the board, the price seemed very reasonable ($13 ish) but when I got my check, we paid almost $80 for 4 drinks. Maybe I’m missing something? I’m not mad, just confused. I don’t know how much kava usually costs but the prices posted seemed fair if you’re coming here for the first time, just make sure you ask how much each thing is so you aren’t surprised at the end. Overall, really love it here. Will definitely be back but as more of an occasional treat. Edit after comment: I think my husband rounded up when telling me how much we spent. All of the drinks were priced correctly (I got a drink with some syrups in it and I just didn’t realize that was extra) and I told him to tip well since the service was so fabulous. No complaints here :)
Dillon St. John made sure Muddy Lotus became one of my favorite Kava spots I've been to. Amazing brews
Excelent service, this is an absolutely cool and beautiful kava bar vibe. Thanks to kavatender Dillan. Good kava options, delicious kratom on tap,coffee and friendly people around.
When looking for your inner peace, check out Muddy Lotus Tea Kava Bar; btw i had the large latte, that fired up my zen.
Great atmosphere ✔ Friendly staff and guests ✔ Delicious Kava, kombucha, and more ✔ Some friends who I haven't seen in a LONG time recommended meeting up here to chill. It was my first time and the bartender was friendly and gave samples to help me decide. Kava was delicious. We brought a card game and found a spot in the back to chill and play and staff was super helpful. Had a great time and will definitely be back!
Simply the best in every regard. Awesome atmosphere and excellent owners who engage with customers and treat their employees great. This is a textbook example of how to run a successful business!! Support them!!
Cool place. Decent people. Terrible over-priced kratom tea. Tastes like chemicals or cleaner. Edit for owner's reply. We have been to multiple other kratom "bars" in FL with Lizard Juice always being best AND cheapest. You're right it was absolutely a mistake buying ourselves an extra tea each for the following day but you are welcome for the business. Even if it is certainly the last time after seeing the pretentious passive aggresive remarks on the reviews.
Space is cool, kavarista's know their stuff, owners are actively around, fire shows on some night.
I come here with a few buddies every now and then and we chill and enjoy ourselves, the staff is really friendly and you can have fun with your friends
Very relaxing atmosphere. Barkeep is a good dude. Nice place to relax.
I loved everything about this place. The atmosphere was so relaxed. Staff was attentive and patient, super knowledgeable too! Made us feel at home. I had a PMS shot, delicious! And a pineapple-mango kava, then finishes my night with a mocha, all delicious! Already planning the next visit.
The atmosphere here is one that makes you want to stay all day long, the staff is super friendly, and they're signature drinks are OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!
Always a wonderful atmosphere and beautiful people to go with the amazing one of a kind drinks!
This Kava bar sends their minions from their kava bar to intimidate patrons at other kava bars. The owners are strategically nice to people.
