This place is my safe haven when I want to take a day trip outside of the city. Hailing from Brooklyn, I purposely make the two hour trip to see my friends here and have even introduced the spot to people who have never been here before. Nothing but love for this place!!!

What a wonderful little place with such a great vibe and energy. They have anything and everything for herbal enthusiasts. Great snacks to grab (All vegan!!) and an insane amount of varieties of drinks. Hands down my favorite place to kick back and enjoy a non alcoholic beverage.

This place is my sanctuary. The kava and kratom drinks are off the charts. Fruity but never too sweet. The kava-ristas are personable, friendly and smart. And the people who come for the vibe and just hang out are like a second family. All walks of life. All different. But all loving and sociable. Bobby, the owner, has created a Mecca for many. Keep it up Roots!!!

As previous kava and kratom drinkers from Florida this made me happy finding this place and it’s so fun to come here you will never know who you will meet and it’s a home away from home love the drinks and the employees are so nice. BULA!

The workers are always very kind and welcoming whenever anyone walks in. They do a great job explaining how kava and kratom works and all the drinks are delicious. A great place to just hang out and enjoy the atmosphere or even get some school work done.

Super welcoming and service is fabulous! My smoothie was absolutely delicious and the vibes are amazing !!
It's one of those niche places that's just too niche. I get what they're selling but making a whole cafe around it? I went here with a date after dinner for shytes and giggles. Didn't know what Kava was but figured we'd try it. We'll be prepared to spend $11 for a dog bowl of cold muddy water that takes seconds to drink and makes your mouth numb for a few minutes. Congrats. You did everything.

I've been to this place twice, once for a study session with a classmate and the second time with a close friend who I felt like he NEEDED to check this place out. Honestly everything from the environment and the service it was all amazing. Im definitely coming back again. -My first order was the matcha late kava -Second was the captain crunch.
Both orders were phenomenal. Anyways I'll be dropping by again next time I'm in port jeff!!

Overall, my crew and I had a wonderful vibe in the back as we played with the instruments and vintage games. It’s unfortunate that this experience was not like my very first experience with a beautiful, lovely lady who made the best drink I’ve ever had that I ordered for on that day. Very unfortunate that the mail employee that was there was very very very very very, very bad at making or duplicating the drink that I had initially had there. He stated that the cava was fresh and that’s what led to the murky color. Pretty much the same drink, and the consensus was the same, the drink was not good at all. Are we sure that this young Cat, who seemed very confused and insinuated that we stole a drink, like make that make sense. He seemed like he was on Quaaludes or something. Alternatively, the customer that was sitting there the last time I had gone, there was there again and he seemed pretty cool. It’s my understanding that this establishment was designed for everyone to kick back. Have fun and vibe out, the gentleman literally came to the back and told us to keep it down after I requested that he changed the headbanging heavy metal that he was playing. We do apologize for lighting the incense, but of course it went along with the vibe so no harm no foul. The gentleman seemed like he had a lot of anxiety issues and had a very hard time listening to us. Have fun in the back , he said it was a bit too much, I felt like it was perfect given the type of establishment that this is. Someone should let him know where he works, and what the true vibe is there because he killed it for my entire party, and we walked out after that. And if the business owner is reading this, he should really reconsider keeping him on board and bring back the other lady who was kind, humble, good vibes and knew how to make a drink

Weird experience here.
Came in with 7 of my family members on a Wednesday late afternoon to celebrate a reunion after many years. From the start, we were made to feel very strange. First, one of us ordered 3 kava/kratom drinks and another of us ordered her own separately: 4 drinks. The barista insists he made 5 and one was not paid for. It’s a small place, you can clearly see there are only 4 cups between the group of us at that point. When we counted out the amount of cups to confirm, the barista said “I’ll just let it go” as if we were trying to get one over on him or as if he was giving something for free. Very strange and made us feel uncomfortable, but we went to the back room to play games. While back there we were cheers-ing out drinks and playing the tambourines that are left on pillows back there. The barista eventually came over to tell us we were “doing too much” (exact words) and being loud. We were the only ones there except for the barista and one other person on a laptop with headphones… and the tambourines were provided there… all in all super weird experience that left a terrible taste in our mouth despite the drinks and decor being great. Bummer. Wouldn’t return!
