My wife and I came in, and the calm cafe ambience was cozy. We received the drinks really quickly after ordering. They were very good, and have tons of variety. I got the Banana's Foster and the taste was amazing. Unfortunately we spilt a drink on accident, but they made us a new one free of charge. Awesome experience and would come back on a late night for sure. read more

Reno Roots Kava Bar - Ordering area with menu - Bubble Tea Near Me - Reno, Nevada

My friends and I came here yesterday and were quickly greeted by our server, Eric. The atmosphere is cozy and there is inside and outside seating available. We chose to sit at their backyard patio. Eric gave us recommendations on the menu for kava. I appreciate that the drinks can be adjusted for sweetness. I ordered the kava chai (whole milk) and the Tahoe sunrise which came with complimentary biscoff cookies. We also tried traditional bowl of kava, which has a very earthy taste. The kava chai and Tahoe sunrise were delicious and refreshing. Kava has an analgesic (soothing/calming) effect throughout the body. I felt the effect not long after drinking the kava chai. We enjoyed our time here, the cozy atmosphere, great service and refreshing drinks contributed to a wonderful time. read more

First- Eric who served us is AWESOME! It was my first time trying kava, and he was super patient and knowledgeable. I had a cool experience with kava and others that came into the kava bar made it even better. There were kids playing games, adults just hanging out. It is so cozy in there. I was chilly and they even had blankets and pillows to get cozy. We stayed 3.5 hours without even noticing it! I will be back. Also, it being right besides insomnia cookies was pretty awesome also! read more

Reno Roots Kava Bar - Kava was so good I drank it all before I took a picture - Bubble Tea Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Went to insomnia cookies and we couldn't resist checking out a cup of tea or two. The four of us sat down all trying different teas that were served by the wonderful owners and served in cute French presses. We all had unique cups. Tea is delicious and loved my little butter cookies that came with it. It's cozy and there are fun games to play while there. Loved the bathroom chandelier and the bunny poop sign. Gotta see it to laugh. I will be going back. It's a great late night stop without the alcohol but they've got Kava. read more

Reno Roots Kava Bar - Bubble Tea Near Me - Reno, Nevada

This is my favorite place to get a drink and sit on my computer. It's such a vibe in here, it's small but makes it feel very comfy. The owner is extremely nice and very passionate about kava which I love. The workers are always friendly and recommending drinks if you are new. They have board games, WiFi and they have bingo nights. They are open late and have a comfy couch to sit on and read, write or some some homework. I absolutely love this spot, it's one of my favorite places in Reno! You have to check it out, people also tend to go to insomnia cookies which is right next door. Great to come and be social and have non alcoholic beverages with a lounge vibe! read more

If you're looking for a new feel, this is the spot. Thank you so much to the owner who is so knowledgeable in the roots he's serving to the Reno community. I felt so comfortable in his recommendations. Reno has needed a non-alcoholic lounge that serves KAVA. They also have boba and other teas. My friends and I had such an amazing night at Reno Roots Kava Bar! You feel the peaceful vibes as soon as you walk in. Dim. Cool. Chill. Sexy even. They have card games of all sorts. We sank into the couch & got lost in an intense card game.... and it got real deep, real fast. I think I found my new favorite spot. +patio +near UNR +wifi +sit at bar +comfy couch indoors +small/cozy read more

Visited Reno Roots while looking for a Kava Bar. I use to visit one in Northern California when I lived there and found a few options that helped me with relaxation. I dropped in a few weeks ago and tried one of their mixed drinks and picked up a few items to take home. The drink was very heavy on the Kava flavor, making it a little hard to drink. I also picked up a pack of Kava candy. They are strong on the kava taste as well but also didnt really help with relaxation. The staff there are super friendly and helpful. Not sure why the kava here did'nt effect me as well as the kava I tried in CA. If you like the taste of Kava, give this place a try. They have cool outside games and the inside is fun with sofa style seating. read more

It's always nice to try new places and discover places locally in Reno. I didn't know what kava was so i asked the barista/cashier. I was told "it's kava." lol, well what is kava? Then I was told it is a stimulant made from tea leaves and the tone kind of implied it wasn't your "normal" tea that was kid/baby friendly. I was honestly not interested in this esp because I was here with babies, so I just ordered a couple of their boba drinks. Highly don't recommend their boba. Boba wasn't chewy and had no flavor or sweetness, milk tea flavors were very light/water down tasting. Other than that, the place is cute. A few table board games and a couple outdoor activities. read more

This is by far my favorite boba place in Reno. Starting with the location, it's in the perfect spot by the university and is very walkable. Parking can sometimes be sparse so be aware of that. When you walk in, you are immediately greeted with friendly tea tenders and a very comfortable environment. They are also very dog friendly and always give some treats to my pup! My dog gets more excited to get boba than I do sometimes!! They have games and movies playing and everyone is so friendly! Their boba selection is very large and they have crafted some pre-made combos as well as a build-it-yourself option. If you're wanting to get something different they have options of Kava and Kratom. The staff is very knowledgeable about the two teas and have plenty of recommendations if you're trying it for the first time. Beware that both types of teas can affect people differently and may make you too impaired to drive for a little bit. There was one time where I got boba that was undercooked and I voiced that. When I came in next time, I got a free tea with perfectly made boba. This is not a common occurrence but can happen every once in a while. I'd like to add that their rewards system is great -you get 1 point/$1 and can redeem any free drink after 50 points. They have daily specials and deals that are great to save some money. They also put on fun events fairly frequently and are very active on their instagram page @renorootskavabar to let customers know what's coming up! read more

Reno Roots Kava Bar - Bubble Tea Near Me - Reno, Nevada

I'm a huge fan of natural remedies and I've had 2 near death experiences from prescriptions drugs, which I very literally think are straight from the Devil and Hell, but Mother Nature is a Healer and offers us perfect solutions that don't F~CK with our Bodies plus the EVIL side Effects, which is what took almost took me out the 2x, so I love Kava, but never had I been able to find in Reno nor enjoy something that actually works, they have premade (the City of Reno is BACKWARDS AF and won't let him brew his own batch) Kava, either straight from the bottle (watch your tummy, I had some ginger on hand so I was okay) or into water to mix up, my favorite, is the Kava in the can, if you are 1st timer, split it or if you want to truly FEEL IT, drink it ALL Yourself! Let's all pray and bless the City of the Reno "Health Dept", will relax and come to the Modern World (it's legal to brew/server everywhere but here), where they let the owners brew their own, as it comes out to a perfect 100 mg Kava lactones or within a reasonable % of that amount, which for most people is a perfect amount. Brewed Kava tastes amazing, it's taste like Mother Earth with a Spicy, a little tongue numbing, then it goes straight to the muscles and CALMS them Down, and you Thought Hawaii, didn't have AN AMAZING SECRET, While they ARE SO RELAXED? This amazing plant is come from the South Pacific islands (HI) is enjoyed as a cultural sacred drink, as important as Water! All Kava does is relax your body like alcohol, but keeps your mind alert, so you can see the City of Reno Health Department, only wants people drunk (and gambling) and is okay with the risks of those people driving and putting others at harm! Why have and allow a Sober Alternative, that doesn't make any sense, right? If you know anyone at City of Reno Health Dept, please speak up, this is exactly what Reno needs a true Non Alcoholic Bar that makes you feel Good like Alcohol. Lastly, unlike prescriptions meds, they call muscle relaxers, they don't actually relax your muscles naturally they go after your Inner Ear, which then when that's affected (my last one took out inner ear for weeks, I couldn't lift my head off the pillow nor even go to the bathroom, I was bed ridden, LITERALLY, due to my inner ear being completely destroyed 1 "SUPPOSED, """LEGAL""" Muscle Relaxer (Flexural if you are wondering) So if you are looking for a different way to Feel GOOD, stop by and Enjoy it while it lasts, since they cannot make their own brew, who knows if they will be able to survive long term (I thought Reno was supposed to be Small Business Friendly?). read more

Love Kava I'm used to getting Kava at Melo Melo in Santa Cruz Cali which appears to be a much fresher and potent quality

The sense of community at this place feels like a 90's coffee shop, or Java jungle in it's best days if you're a Reno native. Everyone knows everyone, or introduces themselves right away. The owners have done an amazing job of fostering an environment where everyone feels free to speak, & knows they're safe to disagree. The kava sticks are stronger than you think; the tea's are all great. If you like new ideas & interesting people check it out. read more
