"I stopped by this kava bar today and unfortunately didn’t have a great experience. I used to come here pretty often when Jake was the bartender because the service was friendly and he actually took the time to show me the drinks they offered. This visit felt very different. When I walked in, the bartender was giving someone a massage and seemed annoyed when I asked for a menu. I told him I wanted a kratom drink and asked what flavors they had, but he didn’t show me a menu or explain anything. He just said he had flavors and made something on his own. The drink ended up tasting dirt and plain, and he never asked me what flavor I wanted. It honestly felt like he was rushing so he could get back to what he was doing. He mentioned he was having a bad day, but that doesn’t justify giving bad service or attitude. I didn’t feel comfortable staying or arguing over a drink, so I just left. Honestly, usually after work I stopped by differents kava bar to try their drinks and chill for a little bit before heading home to get some rest after work but if I had known the experience was going to be like this, I would’ve kept driving to another kava bar. I don't recommend this bar"

"The Retreat is a beautiful, intimate space with a friendly and welcoming staff. The kava is delicious and the atmosphere is perfect for a relaxing evening with friends or family. I highly recommend this bar to anyone looking for a unique and enjoyable experience. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about kava, and they were more than happy to answer any questions I had. The kava itself is made in house from scratch, and I felt a noticeable difference in my mood after drinking it in comparison to other bars. I would definitely recommend The Retreat to anyone looking for a unique and enjoyable experience."

"This is like Ritz Carleton of kava and kratom bars in Boca Raton/ Pompano Beach. They have happy hour, flavored teas, chill music that isn’t too loud and it feels more female friendly than some other places I’ve been. Happy hour is M-F 8am-10am and 5-8pm, Wednesday happy hour all day, and Saturday and 2pm. They have affordable bar food empanadas, cookings and protein bars. My partner and I love coming here for jam night, to play scrabble and for the relaxing vibes. Mocktails too for the sober curious crowd too :)"

"My endless search for the perfect evening hangout is officially over. I’ve called off the search party and told my friends to stop suggesting new places. Why? Because The Retreat is it. Let's talk beverages. The tea is so consistently on point, it's a minor miracle in a cup. But the Kava shots? A stroke of pure genius, especially the flavored ones. It’s like a mini-vacation for your brain that you can drink. Forget wasting another evening scrolling through your phone on the couch; just point your car toward The Retreat and let your worries be gently escorted off the premises. With a calendar of activities and events that are actually interesting, you’re sure to find your niche at this hidden gem. A huge part of the magic here is the staff. Patrick and the team operate on a level of genuine friendliness that’s all too rare. They have this incredible knack for making you feel like a cherished regular, even on your first visit. Huge thanks to the whole crew at The Retreat Kava Lounge for creating a place that always feels like coming home."

"Favorite place! The atmosphere is nice, with a classy yet cozy vibe. They have coloring books, board games, couches, etc. There’s weekly trivia and jam nights. The drinks are great. Great place to either come chill with your friends or get some work done (my favorite place to do school work/ study)."
