Mobile roots
Bertha introduced Kava Works as a friendly, walk-up kava bar with a clear point of view: keep it relaxed, helpful, and easy to try.

Kava Works started with Bertha, a retired parcel delivery truck turned mobile kava bar. Today, that same welcoming spirit lives in two lounges built for kava, conversation, events, games, and alcohol-free nights out.
The first Kava Works bar was not built to feel fancy. It was built to make kava feel approachable: order at the window, ask questions, pull up a chair, and settle into the kind of community that grows one conversation at a time.
That mobile beginning still shapes the lounges today. Guests can try a first shell, find a favorite soda or tea, meet friends, play games, hear music, and enjoy a night out without alcohol being the center of the room.
Bertha, the original mobile kava barThe story is simple: make kava less intimidating, keep the room social, and give Colorado Springs a place to gather without defaulting to a traditional bar.
