This is a really bright and airy place, a really cute place to get beverages. They have free Wi-Fi for customers, plenty of workspace, it reminds me of an old school coffee shop. They also have Kava, Kratom, all locally roasted coffee. There’s a super beautiful wall that’s just plants! Employees are super laid-back, and really fun to hang out with.

WOW. This is my new favorite Kava House in all of Tampa. This place is a minimalist’s dream and it invites you in. There is plenty of seating and they have an expansive menu that includes kombucha, kava, coffee, teas, and kratom. It’s a walk away from all of the apartments in the Ybor area and there is plenty of street parking if you’re just visiting. There is WiFi and the restrooms are immaculate. I will be coming back!!!

This place is not veteran friendly, extremely disrespectful. I am a disabled veteran with a handicap license plate at the back of my car and was cursed at and told to move my car several times and was threatened of getting towed because I didn't have a normal civilian handicap sign and was told to never come back for parking in the handicap spot so that a workers friend could park there. After I said that I had no problem moving my car willingly with no problem at all for the sake of being nice and understanding, even though i legally didn't have to, I was rushed and disrespected and told by Scarleth a second time immediately after to leave and to never come back and cursed at, even after being calm and respectful. I wasn't even given the time to move my car. Margaret, another worker there did not even care to look at my license plate to confirm that I was indeed disabled and told me that I was not disabled and had no right to park in the spot. As a U.S Army veteran who served in Afghanistan and received disabilities from my service, I have never been so humiliated, discriminated against and disrespected at an establishment. This whole situation was escalated solely by the workers. I even had the cops called on me. A person who qualifies for a disabled parking permit under this section may be issued an international wheelchair user symbol license plate under s. 320.0843 in lieu of the disabled parking permit; or, if the person qualifies for a "DV" license plate under s. 320.084, such a license plate may be issued to him or her in lieu of a disabled parking permit. And yes I have filed a complaint to the ADA

Nice cool non alcohol option to hang out at in Ybor. We love all the GR locations!

Bright, Airy Kava bar in Ybor City, Tampa. Clean. Seasonal drinks and food options. Very tasty protein cookies! Front door always open. Pleasant atmosphere. Cute cat wanders in and out the front door. Chickens run free outside protected by the city.

This is a Great place. It was my first time and I really liked it. Stressed out, you need to try the Kava! I didn’t catch the name of the young lady that waited on me, but she was fantastic, Great service... you don’t get that kind of service every where. Very relaxing place. Be sure to give them a try.

Love this kava bar the vibe is great and Morgan is very friendly.

The atmosphere is always great when I come here. Every first Sunday is open mic poetry, which is where you’ll here awesome poets. 10/10 recommend!

Love this place! The staff were fantastic and super knowledgeable when we needed help choosing our drinks. The vibes were amazing! Will definitely return soon.

The “manager” was soo rude and shouldn’t work in customer service. I walk up to order and say hi as I walk in and she completely ignores me as she looks on the terminal for something, then scrolls on her phone, then walks away to do something else. All the other staff were super nice and helpful though!! The kratom and kava were great and this is a really nice spot to come and read or do some work

A favorite spot for many locals, this place serves as a coffee shop vibe and also a social house with absolutely no alcohol which makes it perfect for all age groups. Trivia night is very fun. I recommend going on Wednesday. The staff is very good at explaining what Kava and Kratom are for people who have never had those beverages and don’t know the benefits, and they have a wide array of other beverage options as well. They don’t have a food menu, but they have a few different baked goods and it is so close by to so many restaurants in Ybor that it is easy to pick something up to go at another place.

Very cool location! Usually a relaxed environment, though sometimes hard to find a seat inside at busy times. The front door is always open but I’ve never had any issues with temperature or bugs inside. I wish they had a larger menu of coffee cocktails that I could try like they do for kava and kratom. I like trying staff cocktails and I feel that’s also an easy way for people to figure out a regular specialty coffee order they like. I’m not much of a kava person myself so I can’t comment on that. I do like kratom but I don’t like their particular kratom brew. That said, there are plenty of regulars I see enjoying the kava and kratom on what seems like a daily basis so some people surely love it. They also have a variety of interesting local baked goods, including vegan options. Bottom line: Grassroots is worth checking out. You might your new regular spot, as many others have!

I've been to many kava bars in the Tampa Bay Area and this is the best one by far! The atmosphere is super chill and the vibes are always on point. The staff is phenomenal, very friendly and won't leave you waiting! The kava is smooth and always cold! Tea is a great strength, always consistent. If you're in the Ybor area do yourself a favor and stop by for a drink and unwind. Oh! And if you need to work remotely, they have tons of outlets and solid wifi 🛜 !!

Absolutely LOVE the vibe, friendliness, and style in this place! Playing with the resident kitty🐈was also a plus! I tried a few different drinks here and all of them were delicious! The white Kratom gave me a nice balanced energy and mood boost! I even bought some for home use. I’ll definitely be back!✌🏼

I love the alternative options they have! They specialize in natural herbal medicine & coffee! What a GREAT idea! The staff is very knowledgeable. I had the Kava shot and the espresso with cbd.

What a nice atmosphere for early morning coffee (or two). They also have an interesting Kava drink - just ask for it - it is designed to give you an overall good feeling and in my opinion, light buzz 🐝 Tingling and numbness on the tongue 👅 is reported by many, including myself 😃

Stopped by from St Pete Beach to Orlando. The young lady in the front was super helpful and informative on all the drinks. The vibe inside is open and welcoming. I can see myself getting alot of studying or work done here. I wished I lived close by, I would be a regular!

I got introduced to this location by a friend, and while I don't frequent it as much as some of the regulars, I try to stop in when I can because their drinks from their kratom cocktails to their coffee are exceptional. The atmosphere and decor is very chill and relaxing, and there are weekly events on most days. Bula!

I’ve been to all the GR locations but this one has me in a chokehold. Great place to work from, music is always top tier and the tea of the day is usually a great option if you don’t know what to pick. Although they offer kava and kratom primarily, they offer so much more. Also, Taj is my favorite.

Really welcoming coffee & kava cafe. Beautiful spaces to work or play boardgames or chill and talk with friends. Absolutely impeccably clean. Staff gracious and genuine. 100% recommended.
