Crema's Take

This isn't your typical coffee shop—it's a beloved kava bar where the real specialty is community and conversation. Regulars rave about the quality kava and kratom tea alongside the genuinely warm staff and owner, with folks consistently mentioning how the laid-back lounge vibe sparks the kind of stimulating philosophical discussions that keep them coming back. It's the rare spot where you'll find locals lingering for hours, making friends at the bar, and feeling like you've found your people.

I love this kava bar. I moved up from Florida which is covered in kava bars, so I was looking for a place to make me feel at home like I did at my favorite kava bar in Florida, Krave gives me the same vibes. I absolutely love this place, the bartenders are absolutely amazing as are the other customers!! Absolutely amazing.

Go for the kava and stay for the conversation. The regulars are the best/most fun. Friendly owner with great managers and bartenders. Never had a bad time. The blond guy that plays computer games in the corner is the friendliest person I have ever met...he seems like the kind of person where nothing aggravates him.

Awesome staff! Great Kava and Ketum (Kratom) tea! I've met soooooo many wonderful people here too. They have a large lounge area in the back if you are distancing. It's a super chill atmosphere for anyone...just see for yourself.

Good atmosphere, friendly staff, only bar of its kind in the area. Always stimulating, philosophical discussion waiting/being had about any of life's conditions. Their drinks, while seemingly pricey, offer a different perspective on what social drinking is- their drinks stimulate the mind instead of numb it. I've been coming here for a couple years now, since they've opened, and it's always been a pleasant experience.
