Krave

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.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings.

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.
Extremely friendly service! The bartender took the time to explain each and every drink on the menu and gave us free samples of both Kratom and Kava. The vibe felt beachy almost with an easygoing and laidback atmosphere. I had a great time trying Kava here, would highly…
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…
