Project Mate Bar

What a great little place. Always a warm welcoming face there when I come in to get my tea. I run out for a quick lunch break from work and swing by and grab some tea and a quick chat with whomever is working. Love this place

What a welcoming and homey place to enjoy Mate! Jonathan makes you feel right at home and is very knowledgable about Yerba Mate. Both the iced and hot mate are so tasty in different ways and make you feel energized, balanced, and more peaceful. Its a great place to meet a friend and relax for a while. They have some very nice and unique products they sell as well, such as bombillas, gourds, color therapy glasses, jewelry, clothing, crystals, and of course a great selection of Yerba Mate. I definitely recommend you stop here and try it out!
You’ll feel great!

What a fabulous find! Someone had told me about this great store and I was shocked that I pass it daily while going to the bank. Located in a small strip mall, unassuming but once you walk into this fabulous place you will be glad you did. Very laid back, people of all kinds sipping their delicious Yerba Mate’s. Quick little history for those who do not know what this is all about. Yerba mate is a tree native to the rainforests of South America. A member of the holly family, the tree produces leaves and stems that have long been used to make tea in Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina. Consumed as a beverage, yerba mate tea (often simply called «yerba mate») is also used in traditional medicine to treat various health problems.
There are many health benefits to this special tea and it is so good.
They have a small bar area with a few stools, chairs, and couches to sit and relax. Jonathan is one of the owners and what a great guy. He will explain everything and anything to you and he knows his stuff, very knowledgeable and super cool and friendly. He gave me a sample of one of the blends that was smoky and so good. The shop has crystals, books, painting’s, altar boxes that are made locally, that are gorgeous and so creative with Buddha designs, crystals and bright colors. Sage, incense, and so many other great items.
He has many different gourds to choose from as well as some gorgeous crystal stoned Bombilla’s. Great place to visit if you are looking for a nice gift for someone. Jonathan will help you with it all and you will walk out happy to have found such a great store. I look so forward to visiting often to get me some delicious mate’s and fun other items.
Wonderful place with excellent energy!

So happy to have found this place and these folks! Went in on Black Friday, met one of the cofounders who was very, very nice and gave us a free mate for my partner! Lots of cool stuff to look at around the store. I will definitely be back for more, and to hang out for a bit, and definitely switching to their mate! Excellent customer service, excellent mate, wonderful experience.

Came here on a whim due to its proximity to my doc’s clinic. I was intrigued since I’ve never heard of yerba mate before and thought «why not» since you get a free one when checking in. It’s located within a small complex so it’d be easy to miss if you’re not actively looking for it. Upon walking in, I was graciously greeted and given a short description of what mate is. The area is very intimate and homey in a way with a generous selection of gourds and agate, in addition to other trinkets. The concept is really interesting and I felt bad leaving with just the free drink. They let me try the «original» and the «flavored» mate so I could get a feel for how it tastes. The original was like a smokey green tea, while the flavored one was more on par with a regular berry tea; it’s definitely an acquired taste. I wish they had more flavors on hand, but I guess it’s more of a merchandise place for you to make your own mate at home. Overall, if you’re a newbie to mate like me, this is a great place to start out at given the free one you get and the helpful staff.

Wonderful place! Yerba Mate has numerous health benefits. I love this place… lovely ambiance and a friendly owner.
I got an iced tea with ginger and berry; it was absolutely delicious.
Slightly smoky, delectable and refreshing. Shop has other other items for sale too (jewelry, books etc.). Definitely visit this place next time you visit Delray.

Visiting from out of town my wife and I love visiting local tea and cafes! Ventured in today and was greeted by Jonathan whom was very friendly and let us try a few samples out. Would definitely visit again!

The tea is great but the people are even better. They do everything to accommodate you to make sure your tea experience is beyond pleasant. First time I had ever had agave as a sweetener. I truly appreciated this time shop.

Great place to relax, meet new friends and get your daily caffeine fix. Great art and locally made goods available for purchase. Jonathan makes you feel right at home and will gladly explain what makes mate such a great coffee alternative.

The best hidden gem in Delray! Stop drinking coffee and go here immediately!!! Friendly, inviting and a relaxing environment. Not to mention Yerba Mate is good for you.

What a great place! If you’re a mate lover, you’ll defiantly want to check out Project Mate Bar… excellent tea, cool vibe and local artwork! Check it out!

If you have not been yet. Its worth the visit. Its a real eccentric place with Mate, art, gifts, clothing. Twice a day I stop in and get a Mate and if not my fear of addiction I would be there 3 times a day.

The mate tea tastes very nice, a great substitute for coffee! The store owner was very inviting and we will definitely be visiting again soon.

Great tea! The blends are also delicious and refreshing! The owners are very knowledgable about their product! Definitely will be visiting again
