Great place to unwind after work and not be pressured to have a beer. Service was great, the owner even checked on us to make sure everything was good. I had the Siren and will be back for more.

Ohana Kava Bar is truly a gem in downtown Colorado Springs. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the staff is always friendly, and the drinks are both unique and delicious. I love how easy it is to connect with other bar-goers here—the community vibe is unlike anything else downtown. The patio is one of my favorite spots to relax, and it’s so refreshing to have a place that offers an alternative to the typical alcohol scene. Every visit has been fantastic, and I always leave feeling better than when I walked in. We’re lucky to have a spot like Ohana Kava Bar in the heart of downtown. It’s not just a bar, it’s a community hub where people can gather, enjoy great drinks, and be part of something special.

I’ve been going to Ohana for quite sometime now and in my opinion Alex is the best kavatender ever! Alex is so joyful to be around and makes everyone laugh! She is attentive to everyone and if you have questions her explanations are easy to understand. Alex is also the tea and kava guru, coming up with the best flavors to mix with kava along with the loose leaf teas if you want to mix those as well! Her recommendations do not disappoint and I ended up drinking some wonderful tea and some good tasting kava!

Such a kind soul who always has a smile on her face. If you get to have either of these as your kava tender, count yourself lucky ♥️

Aiden was awesome! As is the rest of the staff. Been coming here on repeat for years and I just can’t get enough. Stormy, Emerson and all the other staff along with the atmosphere they offer are beyond compare. If you’re a young hippy, open minded individual, just looking to get some work done, or trying to venture out of the usual dive bar scene this is your place! Very inclusive, very trendy, and a good example of what Colorado Springs has to offer. Cheers, and thank you for the vibes.

We’re in town for the week and found Ohana totally by accident and were so glad we did. The staff was so friendly and helpful with recommendations and questions. We’ve had kava at home, but being in a kava bar with other like minded people was an experience I won’t forget! Definitely check this place out!

best kava bar in colorado springs, best kava in colorado, downtown kava bar

A vibrant downtown space for connection, creativity, and community.

Ohana Kava Bar Downtown is a vibrant, alcohol-free lounge in the heart of Colorado Springs, serving premium kava, botanical teas, and a variety of 18+ and 21+ plant-based drinks. With a full stage for open mics, live music, comedy nights, and community events, our downtown spot brings the energy while staying true to the chill, inclusive vibe Ohana is known for. Both Ohana locations proudly claimed the Best Kava Bar 2025 title in The Gazette’s Best of the Springs in both its inaugural year (2025) and again in 2026. We’re open daily from 11 AM to 11 PM (midnight on Fri & Sat).

Experience the Downtown Kava Scene at Ohana

Step off the busy streets and into a space that feels both vibrant and grounding. Here, the lighting sets the mood, the music hums low, and the rhythm of conversation carries through the room. This is your creative sanctuary, your post-show hangout, your downtown hideaway for meaningful connection.

At our Downtown Colorado Springs location, Ohana blends kava culture with the city’s artistic pulse. From live music and open mic nights to art shows and stand-up comedy, the space flows with expression and energy. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a familiar face, you’re always part of the Ohana.

No alcohol. No pressure. Just plant-powered drinks, good people, and a space that feels alive.

Welcome to the kava bar experience, reimagined.

Ohana's Not Your Average Kava Bar

In downtown Colorado Springs, there’s no shortage of places to grab a drink... but Ohana Kava Bar at 112 E Boulder St. offers something more meaningful than the latest trend. Just blocks from Colorado College, the Fine Arts Center, and the city’s core creative district, this location sits at the intersection of culture, connection, and calm.

Ohana Downtown carries the legacy of one of the first kava bars in Colorado and among the earliest in the U.S. That experience shows up in every pour and every event, blending thousands of years of tradition with a modern, mindful vibe that fits the rhythm of the city.

This isn’t just a place to drink kava - it’s a place to belong. With a full stage for live music, open mics, comedy, and community nights, Ohana creates space for people to slow down, show up, and share something real. It’s alcohol-free by design, and intentionally inclusive for those looking for an alternative to the typical bar scene.

What is Kava?

Kava, often called the “Pacific Elixir,” is a calming, non-alcoholic drink made from the root of the Piper methysticum plant. For more than 3,000 years, communities across the South Pacific have shared kava to relax, connect, and foster a grounded, social mindset.

At Ohana Downtown, we honor that tradition while bringing a modern twist to the experience. Kava is still prepared the classic way, by kneading the ground root into cold water, but it’s also available in formats like ready-to-drink cans, concentrates, and tinctures. Every option starts with noble kava, a variety known for its smooth taste and balanced, feel-good effects.

Whether you're sipping from a shell at the bar or exploring new ways to enjoy kava in your wellness routine, our Downtown location is your place to unwind, connect, and be part of a deeper culture rooted in community.

What Does Kava Feel Like?

Most people feel calm, relaxed, and more socially open after drinking kava, all while staying clear-headed and present. It’s not a “high” or a “buzz.” We think of it more like a steady chill that settles in gradually. At Ohana Downtown, we encourage new drinkers to take it slow and allow time for the effects to build.

You’ll typically start to feel kava within 10 to 20 minutes, and the relaxed state can last for a couple of hours. The shift is subtle, tension fades, conversation flows more easily, and your body feels grounded. Unlike alcohol, kava won’t cloud your judgment or leave you with a hangover the next day.

Kava Safety, Dosage, and Overdoing It

Kava is considered safe for most adults when used responsibly, especially when made from traditional noble varieties. These have been consumed in the South Pacific for generations and are known for producing a smooth, balanced experience. But like anything, moderation matters, and kava isn’t the right fit for everyone.

If you have a medical condition, take prescription medications, are pregnant or nursing, or have questions about how kava might affect you, it’s best to check in with a qualified healthcare provider before drinking.

Taking too much can lead to discomfort. Most people who overdo it just end up feeling groggy or glued to the couch, wishing they had stopped a shell or two earlier.

The safest way to enjoy kava is to start slow, give it time to take effect, and pay attention to how your body feels. Never mix kava with alcohol, sedatives, or anything that impacts the liver or central nervous system.

Kava Legality in The US

Kava is legal across the United States and can be sold, purchased, and consumed in all 50 states. At Ohana Downtown, we serve kava to guests 18 and older, while some of our other botanical drinks are reserved for those 21 and up based on their specific regulations.

Kava is classified as a dietary supplement, not a controlled substance, and it's become a popular alcohol-free option in lounges, cafés, and wellness spaces nationwide.

If you're traveling, you can typically bring kava with you within the U.S. without any problems. For international trips, it's best to check local customs rules just to be safe.
