In 2002, a friend handed me an article about the first Kava Bar to open in my hometown in Florida. Curious, I decided to visit the location one evening, and my life changed forever. I was instantly enamored by the kava drink and the sense of connection it fostered. The atmosphere was unlike anything I had experienced before—relaxing, uplifting, and full of camaraderie. It became a regular part of my life, and soon I found myself wondering: why wasn’t this experience available on a larger scale?
Years later, after moving to Colorado Springs and working tirelessly as an Emergency Room nurse, I realized that my dream wasn’t in the hospital. It was creating a place where people could connect, relax, and build community over a cup of kava. With hard work and a small business loan, we opened our doors on Friday, November 13, 2015.
Since then, Ohana Kava Bar has grown to include a second location, and we’re thrilled to share our vision with more people every day. We aspire to continue growing—not just here in Colorado Springs but across the world—so more people can experience the magic of kava and Ohana.
When you step into Ohana Kava Bar, you’re not just entering a business—you’re entering a family.
“Ohana” is the Hawaiian word for family, and at our bar, it’s more than a name—it’s our guiding principle. Family means no one is left behind, and that’s exactly the feeling we aim to create. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a loyal regular, you’re welcomed as part of the Ohana community.
