Mana Bar: Exotic Beverage Lounge

New to Kansas drive 35 extra minutes just to come down here at 5PM on a Sunday… just wanted to try some kava for the first time as this place caught my attention and thought it would be delightful. But they were closed. Update your website and say your going to be closed at 5 instead of 6. If your open till 6 then stay open till 6. Also update your phone number so people can call and ask it you guys are open instead of it saying “this line is disconnected.” Hopefully new people have a better experience.

I arrived at the store at 5PM with intention to buy a triple kava drink, I saw a sign on the front door that stated the store closes at 5:30, so I walked in to order. The man working (who I’ve had negative interactions with before) proceeded to tell me they weren’t serving anything as he was closing, which I understood. When I asked him about products, he either gave me short, snippy responses, or completely ignored me. Finally, he just told me to leave as he was “busy closing”. I work in the service industry and am used to staying open a little later in order to meet customer needs if they’re reasonable. I’ve came here for the last 6 years as a customer whenever I pass through Lawrence and have told my friends about this place. I will not be stopping by again and will discourage people I know from coming. I usually have overall good experiences with Mana Bar, today was extremely disappointing.

Went in to try their Matcha and they said they couldn’t make any bc the store was closing permanently here soon. Sad. The lady seemed very nice.

Don’t waste your time!
Walked in. No one there. I’m new to the game so I had some questions. One the owners was really stand offish (he was the only worker there) and very unhelpful. Didn’t want to answer my question. However, he did give me a free sample. They have loose leaf tea, kava and Kratom. BUT, IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOURE LOOKING FOR THEY WILL NOT HELP YOU.

I have only bought tea from this joint to take home and brew. Probably the best place to get some loose leaf tea in LFK. Has gaiwans and tons of other tea accessories! Excellent staff! Pretty cozy joint.

Need to check this place out! It’s a hidden gem, super nice place that is relaxing to hang out and get some work done and get a tea or kombucha or kava fizz. I highly recommend the kava fizz there my favorite!

I think this is the best coffee I’ve had in my life

We love the smell of mana bar - it’s a chill great environment -

A great place to try different flavors of tea. The chi tea I had was fabulous. Everyone was very patient and helpful while I was deciding on flavors for a tea loving friend.
