    Cappuccino

    A nice man named Nelson was such a pleasure. I really enjoyed this delicious cappuccino with pretty art he made for me. He was so informative on kava and kratom I can't wait to come back and hang. Thanks bk kava and your awesome team!

    Get ready to get calm. A small intimate space with cozy seating, beautiful art drawn on the walls, and kava drinks so tasty you'll wonder how they're still strong! For the uninitiated, Kava is usually very strong tasting and not very good- earthy and cloudy. Brooklyn Kava offers it straight, but the better option is one of the Kava cocktails. Get a double scoop ($10) and I highly recommend both the drinks I tried- the vegan eggnog and the lavender chai. Vegan eggnog is quite sweet but cinnamon-y and tastes nothing like real eggnog(thank god). The lavender chai is comforting while being fresh from the floral notes. Both can be made warm if you like. They have plenty of treats from Ovenly if you needs snacks with your Kava and Kratom drinks as well if you want a boost instead of a relaxant. Can't wait to come back!

    Swung by mid afternoon on a Saturday and sat at the bar hoping to be served, as there weren't many people inside, only myself and 2 others that were with me at the bar. So just my party of 3 sitting there waiting for them to initiate service, I've never been here before and i said that, the women behind the counter was far less than helpful, they were all smiles to patrons outside of the window getting their orders outside via the walk up window and ensuring they was happy, and understood what they were getting. I felt unwelcomed as neither of the two servers asked what can I get you? Are you familiar with what we have, do you know how it works, Or can i make a suggestion if you would like to try something... NONE of these services were extended to me or my other 2 guest! I finally stopped one of the short haired girls and asked for something off the menu and my order was taken in passing! SMH! I mean i sat here long enough through the BS why not order and write an honest review, I will never ever drop another penny in a jar for this establishment! RUDE RUDE RUDE I don't understand how you can blatantly be so rude to a respectful customer.

    A small cafe with character. Fun to seat and look at the walls. Music in civilized volume.

    Hey guys and gals, this question is directed toward the kratom people, as an individual who is constantly ordering different strains, how would you rate the quality of their kratom tea?

    I guess Kratom tea is not for everyone, as I threw up 40 mins after having mine!

    Friendly employees who are well informed that can tell all about their products if anyone never had Kava or kratom.

There's the main seating area and then two offshoot lounges, which aren't quite as cozy but offer different levels of quiet and ambience. I love all the random décor, antique signs, old arcade games as tables, a million lamps. It's like what nook is going for but you can actually sit down on a comfy couch most of the time. The guy working the counter has a lot of energy and clearly loves being there. The PB banana smoothie was yummy, very thick so could use a spoon. Mushroom toast was a bit pricey but you did get a lot of food for your money, the focaccia was crunchier than expected but all around a nice cafe bite. I just appreciate how this is such a gathering spot where you can watch bk life play out while working, it had a different energy from a lot of places in the area.

    Shucks I wanted to give this place five stars but it didn't start so well. The first barista who…read moretook my order was really great. I first ordered a chai latte and he said I could do two different syrups so I got the pumpkin and salted maple, though I was worried about it being too sugary so he suggested I could just do half a pump of each. He asked me what the name of the order would be and I said "Aida" (the phonetic spelling is ah-EE-dah). And then I heard the other barista say something along the lines of, "oh Aida, how about 'Aida' rather not be here", pretty rude if you ask me. And then I ordered the spicy nook sandwich. And when another server called my named to grab it she didn't even knowledge me when I tried to thank her and instead she talked to her coworker while I was right in front of her. The sandwich was really good, so was my chai tea. I really like the pumpkin and salt and maple syrups too. I did like all the options for seating although it was pretty packed. I'd say if you have a big party get there early. By 7pm the whole place was filled. There was a huge majong club that came in and took the whole back area, it was so crammed there were lines for the bathroom. Over all I had a good time. I really like the music too just know it gets very busy in there. The employees I would say were hit or miss. The ones that were great though I really liked. Just seem like the ones who didn't really give attention to customers or were kind of rude seemed like they didn't wanna be there.
