About Dharma Kava Lounge

Noble kava and coffee in Largo

Dharma Kava Lounge is all about noble kava, mixed into recipes the shop calls its own. The business says it first opened on November 3, 2014. It describes itself as the first kava bar in Largo.

Kava is only the start these days. The shop lists botanical teas, kombucha and locally roasted espresso on its menu. It also mentions seasonal drinks that rotate through.

The coffee side got an upgrade recently. Its website names a vintage La Pavoni machine with three groups, brought over from Italy. The beans are roasted locally, usually medium or dark, the shop says.

The room itself is a big part of the draw. The business describes a roomy lounge with two bars, a stage and free multi-gigabit Wi-Fi. It pitches the place as a third spot between home and work, somewhere to study, game, meet friends or just unwind.

Before you head to Dharma Kava Lounge

The hours are tight. Dharma opens at 10 am and closes at 2 pm, the same span every day of the week.

Google reviewers give it 4.6 stars across 431 reviews.

Never had kava before? The shop says its team is trained on the whole menu and happy to steer a first-timer toward something they will like. It also says staff take custom drink requests, so ask if you have a twist in mind.

If you want a laptop session, show up near opening. With a 2 pm close even on Saturdays and Sundays, this is a morning and lunch stop, not an afternoon hangout.
