It's very bright and vibrant. There's a ton of room and tables for people to grab a drink and hang out. It gives a very cozy feeling with the pillows on the long bench and little couch. There's two ordering stations that you can order your drinks from. There's not a lot of interaction with you and the barista. Actually, the gal that was working didn't really talk to us. She had a guest that she was giving her attention to. They were chatting it up the whole time we were ordering and while our drinks were made. There was a gentleman that clocked in and he helped me for a bit. He helped me start a new drink card. This would have been a 5 star review if the gal would have just paid a little more attention to us. For drinks I got the pomelo lemon tea with lychee jelly. My daughter grabbed the strawberry slushy with lychee jelly as well. The tea was delightful! You can taste the citrus in the tea. It was perfectly sweetened with a good amount of jellies on the bottom. There's also pieces of citrus peel. It added a nice element to my drink. The strawberry slushy was perfectly blended. It was thick and icy. It came with the cutest lid! My tea was fantastic and the venue is really cute! I look forward to trying other tea if I'm ever in the area again.

Normally a protein shake Jain tastes super artificial and you can't actually taste what it is supposed to be. This one, I tasted everything but the waffle. Well, in my mind I was supposed to have pieces of waffle cone in it. Probably wasn't supped to. Still was super awesome. Not too much PB, not too much banana. Just perfect. The owners were super nice also. I did feel judged by their dog, but he was freaking adorable. Super friendly. I'd check this place out again.

I was in the area so I decided to stop in and grab an afternoon drink. It was later in the day so it was pretty chill. It was just a couple and myself. I really wanted to try their black sesame latte. It sounded kind of fun to try! But unfortunately it was not available. So after go over their drink menu again, I decided on the saffron tea. My tea came out in a pretty cup with a dainty spoon. I have never had saffron tea before so I didn't know what to expect. It tasted earthy. It was rich in golden color. I did add some honey to it and it was a nice addition to it. I can see myself appreciating this tea that much more if it was colder outside. I enjoyed the venue for a bit and grab a to go cup to take the rest with me. It was nice coming in and grabbing my tea. It was also great supporting a locally woman owned business. I will have to definitely come back and try their highly spoken about dumplings and that black sesame latte.

But pretty amazing to pick up croissants and other amazing butter filled creations to take away. I think it is important to understand what this place is, and what it isn't. It is: a rare spot in Boise to buy artisan pastries made with care, and the best ingredients money can buy. It is NOT: a place to find "good value", a good place for kids (especially special needs or rambunctious children) or a place to come if you're good with Costco level baked goods.

A few friends and I stopped in for some kava and shared a couple of kombuchas too--they've got plenty of options on tap.

If you're looking for a relaxed spot to catch up with friends or maybe meet some new people, definitely check out Karuna Kava.

It was a casual place, and the woman at the bar explained all there was to know about Kava, including that my taste expectations shouldn't be too high, as it's a very "earthy" flavor. I would say it's a bit more than earthy. It's strong-flavored, but the affects hit me within minutes!! My tongue went numb and a wave of relaxation washed over me....reminiscent of Xanax, lol. We had to wait it out a little bit before driving home, especially me...I felt very sleepy after drinking the whole cup. It's definitely very relaxing, but not a drink that you would crave. It's kind of something you have to do quickly to get to the relaxing part. Don't try and sip it...just drink it down and suck on the pineapple. That's the best way to do it. We bought four containers of the stuff to take home with us, because we thought it would help us sleep better at night, and it definitely is, but I wouldn't do it too close to bedtime or you'll have to wake up to pee. All in all, interesting experience, for sure. Before this, I had not known much about Kava, so it was definitely worth doing. Will likely be back!

I don't think the falafel was even homemade. They looked and tasted frozen. I was very disappointed in the meal. It looks pretty, but had no flavor. Also, parking. There is absolutely no parking.
