Everyone vapes inside. Not kid friendly or really lung friendly for anyone. Sad that SC smoking legislation loophole allows indoor vaping.
The Kava Konnection is by far one of the best shop/business i have ever been to. The atmosphere could not be cozier, with warm lighting and comfy couches in the back (my fav spot) and delicious teas and drinks. However, the PEOPLE are the best part, the employees, and even the other guests/customers themselves always say hello and goodbye to me, and have sparked casual conversation with me that make me feel so welcome. Definitely a new regular spot for me!!
Very tasty, fast and friendly service!
Friendly/helpful folks with great kava.
Just moved to Greenville from Charleston and so glad I found this spot! It's a super-chill vibe, friendly staff and crowd. The herbal drinks and teas taste great, and there are also lots of affordable snacks (and homemade muffins) if you get hungry. The wifi is super-fast too. I come here a few days a week, sip some tea, and get some work done. They also have a ton of board games, chess, books, and even a guitar, so it's an awesome spot to bring friends or go on a fun date.
What a great place to hang out. The Kava and Kratom are top notch with great flavors. The people here are great to just start up a random chat with. Ask for Ashley to make you the greatest concoction, she's the best.
Great atmosphere with friendly people.
They don't have much on the menu as far as food but their drinks, service, atmosphere is what is desired in the ideal cozy café. Met some great folks just hanging out there. It's tucked away and is undoubtedly a secret gem of the Greenville area.
Chill place. My best friend and I felt welcome. I'll definitely be hitting up this place more often.
For my first drink, I ordered a Mint Hot Chocolate with almond milk. Delicious, taste like hot chocolate with a hint of mint. I don't know if it's me or the beverage but work and the world outside this bar just faded from thought. Wanting to stick to hot drinks so I ordered cider for my second beverage. I started drinking the cider and sink more into a state of relaxation I haven't experienced in a while. This is not the most relaxed I've ever been but this is good. I find this level of tranquility hard to achieve with just a two day weekend. I left after ordering another cider to go. Then I returned the next day for another hot chocolate.
Fantastic example of what nu-nightlife can be. A kava/kratom bar with plenty of free games to play, an inviting and relaxed kinda opium den theme, and an owner who knows your name.
By far a best kept secret for Greenville. Eclectic diverse and very chill crowd . Always love the vibe in this place. Gabriel and family make everyone part of their family❤️
Over priced and a 30 minute wait for hot chocolate to go. Left off my whip cream and syrup on all of my orders that i was asked if i wanted.
Wonderful atmosphere. First time here and never had kava. Will definitely be back.
This was my first time trying kava and kratom, and i can most certainly say I will come back here. The staff was extremely welcoming and informative! They let me have a sample before I ordered anything, which I greatly appreciated. The drinks tasted great, especially their kava hot chocolate and kratom green apple tea. I had to buy a bag of kava myself after coming here, thank you so much for the awesome experience!!
Best place to make new friends and have a chill night out without regrets .
Staff was on point. Got a few things. The kava with coconut milk and cinnamon tasted exactly like a horchata. Definitely recommend this place if in the Greenville area.
Tried Kava for the first time yesterday. They were very welcoming and informative (we had stumbled in parched and looking for a cold alcohol free beverage). The initial free taste was amazing. We relaxed and were chatting up a storm. Highly recommend if you want to have a deep conversation, play a game (with the free games provided) or just hang out in an alcohol free atmosphere.
Took my wife here for a date. Relaxing atmosphere, games easily accessible, seating arrangements designed for conversation. The kava tender was knowledgeable and friendly. The kava was good and really put us both in a great mood. A perfect date. Would recommend. I recommend you open a tab, I didn't and I kept coming back for more.
*Update* I want to thank the co-owner for the follow-up and sending the package out ASAP. I greatly appreciate it. I have Trigeminal Neuralgia and Small Fiber Neuropathy; upon doing research Kava was listed as an alternative for the pain. I followed the instructions, warmed it as a tea, and added honey. It has an earthy taste, and it does calm my facial nerve pain, especially when I'm working in the garden; heat is not my friend. Thank you again. * I purchased their Kava from the website. I'm local, but due to health challenges/medication, I’m unable to drive. Delivery was the best option for me. I anticipated a tracking number within a week. That didn't happen. I reached out twice with zero response. If I would have received a response, even one stating they're running behind on shipments, I would have waited. Unfortunately, I requested a refund from Pay Pal, it was granted, so I did receive my money back. I'm sad because I love supporting local small businesses.
