I haven't been here in years but I LOVE this spot. Do they still sell kava? Hope to visit soon.

It's a cool place with a fun atmosphere and very friendly staff. The only place in Pittsburgh that serves kava as far as I know. The only unfortunate thing is that the kava they serve is super weak (but still expensive) so you can barely feel any effects, even with the triple shot.

Fave spot in Bloomfield! I live close-by and am so grateful to have a great study/community space. The service is wonderful, I asked for an iced drink to be made hot and they were so kind about it!

First time stopping in even though I’ve driven by it thousands of times. Very cute inside with mosaic and stone. I ordered some variation of a green iced tea and it was delicious and was made very fast. It was a beautiful day and the windows and door were open and the sun was shining in. Cute place

I’m not sure where to start as the experience was horrible. The guy took my girlfriend’s order and totally ignored me up to saying the total without asking I wanted anything. Never asked how we were, like man what a life you must live to be that miserable.Now for the drinks, YUCK! They were so nasty. I’m not huge into sweetener, but if all the drinks are unsweetened that should be noted. The green tea was unbearably strong (again no sweetener) and it was definitely steeped too long. The kava was super strong and might not be for everyone. I am so disappointed with the entire experience as we have heard nothing but good things.I will note that honey in a hot tea on a cold day would probably be nice, but as far as iced drinks and customer service, they are not existent. Kava again is going to be person by person, it’s a cool menu choice.Based on my overall experience and how rude the guy was, I certainly won’t be returning and could never recommend this. 0/5!

Okay, so if you did not know Pu'er tea could be considered 'one of the many' champagne's of tea ... and Bantha's Ancient Pheonix Puer Tea gets it right! The team there is knowledgable and will answer your questions about it (caffine, reuse, etc) ... Its delicious, robust, flavorful, bold and so much more, a must try!
This is "my perspective" shared FYC (For Your Consideration): I needed two cup holders and waited 15 minutes after pour before drinking ... ITS HOT and the tea leaves are HUGE ... they hold heat, I'd wait before consuming (this includes sipping but hey it's your mouth and tongue) ... ENJOY!! After consuming, remove from tea bag. I used a scrap piece of raw cowhide (a.k.a leather) as there will be residual moisture. I rotated between open air and a mason jar until dry and stored in same mason jar for re-use (I plan to re-use half with less water FYI). Enjoy and Drink Responsibly ... ITS HOT!!!

Cozy little tea shop with a huge variety to select from. Both the kava and kratom were delicious and they sell powered forms if you wish to make it at home! Bartender was extremely nice and easy to talk to (her piercings were gorgeous), a very pleasant experience compared to the fast pace of most shops. The decor inside has a relaxed atmosphere that perfectly complements the vibe of the place.

This place has the most amazing selection of tea blends. I also love it for a laptop working spot! Plenty of outlets and seating.

Went here on a whim, it was fantastic! Friendly staff and cute architecture. The theme is Star Wars lite, but still super cool. Good community support too with art and karaoke nights. Their tea was very good and would go again!
