Tiny Kombucha focused restaurant in The Grove with a variety (8) of unique flavors of Kombucha, and you can try multiple in a "kombucha flight". -Flavors are constantly changing. -Have a bunch of different size options for Kombucha, and you can get a big growler to go as well. Have a full menu of vegan dishes also. Seating is very limited and cramped. There are only 4 two person tables inside, and around 3-4 tables outside. I went for lunch with my friend, and we both had coupons for a free flight of 4 different Kombuchas with a food purchase. We decided to get all 8 of the different Kombucha's to share. I really enjoyed almost all of the Kombuchas. Although I thought that the Kombuchas were great, I was not impressed by the food. I understand that it is all organic and whatnot, but I am not a really crunchy-granola person and I was not impressed. The portions were tiny and, quite frankly, I did not think the food was that good. Weird hours (11-9, F-M)

3 Kimchi sample

Confluence Kombucha has been on my list of places to try for a long time and I finally got to experience it! It is in a popular area with a lot to do so I could see myself coming here to pick up some kombucha then having a nice walk on a sunny day. What I ordered: we split the kombucha flight. There is no way I could remember all of the flavors, but I loved the pineapple and turmeric! (Maybe it didn't have turmeric. I can't remember. It was definitely the pineapple one though!) We were only slightly hungry so we ordered the sample of 3 different types of kimchi. The last time I had tried kimchi I was 10 and I hated it so I decided to give it another try. Well, I still hate it. But that's not their fault! If you like kimchi, I'm sure it's good here! The place is very small and I'm sure it fills up on some nights! We were talking to who I assume is the owner. He is super energetic about what he does! You can tell he cares about the quality of the restaurant. I will be back for some more pineapple kombucha!

A++++ Maybe the best vegetarian food I've had at a restaurant. Inventive dishes with delicious ingredients. I'm so happy we decided to give Confluence Kombucha a try. We ordered scrapple, mushroom, and a kimbap taco. All three were ridiculous. I'm not even sure I can pick a favorite. We also got the 8 pours flight of kombuchas. We loved all of them except the artichoke leaf one - very bitter. The chaga was my favorite. Very good. As an added bonus, the sous chef (Dominic, I believe) was delightful. We spent the better part of nearly two hours chatting with him and anther local guy. What a great food and community experience.

Kale salad AMAZING
Laura H.

The ambience here is warm and friendly. I love how you can order flights of kombucha... since I couldn't decide I just asked the waiter to surprise me! The salad there was beyond delicious (I think it was the kale salad) The kimchi tacos were fun and delicious The blackened tempeh was good but you need to have the taste for it (my mom was not a fan)

Hanna was a gem. She greeted me with a warm smile, explained the menu in detail where I had questions and continued great service throughout my dining time. The space exudes nature, peace & prana. I wish I could pack the little space up and place it untouched in my own living quarters. Wood, metals, colored glass, greenery, patterned fabrics...I loved just sitting there. Onward to the experience... Hanna brought out water and it was green so I asked, umm what kind of water is this?" It was Coconut Geranium water & very refreshing might I add. Next out came my Kombucha. Flight: Asian Pear Chaga, Chicory & Cacao Concord Grape Sarsaparilla & Mace Foti & Eucalyptus I'd love to pick a favorite but honestly they were all delicious. If your dining with a partner of suggest a flight of 8; this way you'll get to each of the tea specials for a nominal $10. Food: Coconut curry with brown stick rice, butternut squash, grilled eggplant,coconut chips & flowers to garnish. If you think it sounds beautiful just take a gander at the photo! This was a very filling, flavorful dish. I planned to try the tacos on my next visit but I'm not sure I want to deviate from the curry (like ever in life). I'm a fan of all things fresh, refreshing & revitalizing. Kombucha has captured my heart...I'm a fan. ~Christy

Dips, crackers, and kombucha flight.
Anna L.

I came here for the first time on their one year anniversary party, so I think it was a bit crazier than expected. Aside from that, the staff was doing their absolute best to make sure everyone was happy, so I give them five stars in the service department. The restaurant it cozy inside and specializes in a rotating, mostly vegetarian menu that will not make you miss meat. We split a flight of kombucha and a plate of dips. They dips and crackers were incredibly hearty and filling - I ended up taking some dips home! Overall it was good and fun to try some new and different flavors, but the price is a bit prohibitive to making me a regular.

Overall: i won't ever go out of my way to go here Ambience: It's a small place, seats 10ish inside , but we chose to sit outside. So to a first timer, this place may seem busy. But 20 people eating-in at a time is not really that busy. The chef here is very nice and friendly, and so is the staff. Everyone is very knowledgeable on the food served here. Menu: Skip the appetizers, except for the mushroom dish and the radish with fake cheese. The 18-sampler is the most overrated thing on the platter, IF you're eating dinner here. Almost every flavor is a repeat. We had their dinners, and here's whatI think - everything tastes delicious except it is missing a base or staple meal. Also, all dinner items are samplers - goes great on a pizza but trying to fill your appetite with it is hard. Service: This was ok. Staff is nice and knowledgeable. Price: Just right. We had most of the menu and it was $25 per person. We are a second dinner after though.

Kombucha flight.
Aaron B.

6/5 if I could. Truly a kombucha mecca. So many amazing and unique flavors. We did a flight of 8 kombuchas. Great prices. And the service was unbeatable. The staff was well versed on what was in each and his thoughts behind the concept development. He even showed us his herb garden in the back! I'd go back tomorrow if I could. One of a kind experience right in the heart of STL.

Lacey C.

What a unique experience and an even more flavorful meal! Honestly, the best Kombucha I have ever had! They had a variety of flavors, that all had a different purpose and the staff were able to explain the benefits of each! I sampled a few flavors before deciding which ones I wanted! I ordered the avocado toast, coconut curry and Kimchi! I cannot wait to go back, I am sure if I was not 3 hours away, I would have already been back a few times!

Kristin N.

What a cool spot! I went with a friend on a Friday night for kombucha flights. I was super impressed with our server's knowledge of all the different flavor profiles of the kombucha including the medicinal properties. Our flights were very reasonably priced and came in really cute eclectic glasses. My favorite is the prickly pear kombucha. There is limited seating inside but feels cozy. I can't wait to return for another flight and to try out some of their food items.

Mandi L.

Great service. Great atmosphere. Great bucha and food. The got a flight of kombucha. 4 types for $6. Highly recommend. Choose your fav and take home a pint. I also enjoyed the nut and bread. All food is made in house.

I'll be honest- I was insanely skeptical. When told we were having dinner at an all vegan, all vegetarian, gastropub, I rolled my eyes and resigned myself to doing something truly millennial (note: I'm a millennial) But holy moley guys... I'm a very solid meat eater, but right now I'm so incredibly full and happy and I feel GOOD. The menu is... adventurous. I didn't know 60% of the words on the menu. Turns out, I didn't need to. I got the squash, my husband the curry soup. Our friends got a random assortment of oddities too. Each one was delicious in a unique way. This is what an experimental gastropub should be and it's awesome. And adventurous! Trying new things that you can't pronounce deserves extra credit. The place is adorable and cozy. The chef prepares all the meals behind a small counter and is available to answer questions from us noobs. They make or grow everything in house. Their staples are pickled veggies and fruits and they have their own fermentation room you can check out from the hallway. If you've never had Kombucha fix it now. I have gastropariesis and this stuff is it's own medicine. Also it's delicious! Think apple cider vinegar but tasty and carbonated. Have a flight of Kombucha to sample and you won't be sorry. It's a very hard sell to get meat eaters into a vegan restaurant. An even harder one to get them to return. We will be back.

What a gem! This is an intimate space that serves a variety of fantastic kombuchas, small plates and healthy meal options. Love the vibe, enjoyed the service and felt warmth and love in the space.

It was more than just a few minutes before a server came over. We ordered cocktails and then got serious about choosing our meals. We eventually decided and placed our orders. We got pretzel bites and cheese to start and it was fine. Then our food came out! I think most of us got burgers. I know someone got the fried chicken sandwich and said it was good. The smash burgers were good. About half of the fries were good and the rest were overcooked. The cocktails were good! Our service could have been a little better. Our server was somewhat efficient. She wasn't overly friendly or attentive. Maybe they were short staffed but I don't know. I just know that service was lacking. There are many things to look at on the walls! If you're into taxidermy, you'll love looking at We'll probably end up back there sometime.

I've never had a dish that wasn't outstanding. I love that there seem to be new things on the menu when I go there, and everything is well marked with allergen info. The workers seem happy to be there, and the customers are too! On Saturday afternoon they offer a tour of their hydroponic gardens, and I can't recommend it enough. Its a short tour, but it is incredible to see how they grow almost all of their greens on-site. Carve out time to visit Neon Greens as soon as you can - its worth the trip!

I recently stopped by after an appointment in STL. It was right at lunch time and it was also, opening day for the Cardinals. So when I entered, the line to order was already long. To my surprise, the one lady taking orders, moved that line quickly. So I give her major kudos. When it was turn to order, I was ready. I went with a Double and swapped out the American Cheese for Pepper Jack. For my side, I tried their Salt&Pepper Onion Rings. After ordering, I took my number stick and took a seat at the bar. Once seated, the bartender welcomed me and I ordered a draft beer. I barely had completed my Wordle and my burger basket was being slid in front of me. Before taking my first bite, I admired the crisp edges and actually ran my finger around them. My first bite was heaven. It proved to me that all a good smash burger needs is; ketchup, mustard, onion and pickles. The Onion Rings were made in house and the simple seasoning of Salt & Pepper made them a winner. While dining at the bar, I learned a new trick. If you're going to be sitting at the bar to enjoy your smash burger, you can order it from the bartender. That's right, no standing in line to order, you can go straight to the bar. Great staff. They all hustle and provide friendly and professional service.

Despite that, the other tables seemed to receive constant attention while our waitress disappeared for long stretches of time. We were initially seated in the side room with a large industrial fan blowing so hard that it was moving the menus off the table. We waited for the waitress to return so we could request a different table, but she never came back, so we moved ourselves to another empty table away from the fan. She seemed unhappy about the move and told us we might have to relocate again because they were expecting a busy day. Honestly, the restaurant was empty, and we would have been finished long before any rush started -- which we were. I asked for ketchup with my burger, and it didn't arrive until after I had already finished eating. Overall, the service was very poor. Unfortunately, the food was also extremely salty -- and we're people who normally enjoy salt. I had the Farmhouse Burger with Brussels sprouts and mac and cheese, while my wife ordered the steak and fries cooked medium well. The steak came out medium rare, and both her fries and my burger and Brussels sprouts were overly salted. The one bright spot was the mac and cheese, which we took to go. My daughter tried some and said it was the best she'd ever had. To top it off, our bill came to an even $100 with tip, and all we had were waters and the items mentioned above. We had been wanting to try Retreat for quite a while, so this experience was very disappointing. Between the poor service and underwhelming food, we probably won't be coming back.

I'd say it's definitely a "sharing" spot, which I love, perfect for a group of friends, but also great for solo entrées since the portions work either way.
