Kava Bar Near Davie, Florida

Getting Here from Davie

The easiest route from Davie is I-595 East to US-1, then south to SW 3rd Avenue in downtown Fort Lauderdale. From the Nova Southeastern campus area, you can also take University Drive south to I-595.

Why Davie Locals Choose PoorHouse

Davie has no kava bar within its city limits. The closest option is PoorHouse Kava in downtown Fort Lauderdale, and many Davie residents have made it a regular stop. The college crowd from Nova Southeastern and Broward College often comes in for flavored K-Tea builds with juice bases and boosts, while more experienced kava drinkers tend to order straight traditional pours.

PoorHouse sits inside the original Poor House dive bar, which means the atmosphere shifts throughout the night. From 2 PM to about 10 PM, the vibe is calm and lounge-like — a good setting for studying, catching up with friends, or trying kava for the first time. After 10 PM, the live music starts and the energy picks up with bands rotating through jazz, rock, punk, blues, indie, and hip hop.

What to Order

Kava pours come in three sizes: 3oz ($3), 7oz ($6), and 16oz ($13) — significantly cheaper than most Broward County competitors that charge $16 to $18 for comparable drinks. The full menu includes traditional kava shells, kratom tea, custom K-Tea builds with your choice of juice or milk base, flavor shots, and functional boosts. Gallon orders are available for pickup or delivery to Davie and surrounding areas.

If you have never tried kava before, the bartenders are used to walking first-timers through the options. Coming during the calmer afternoon hours between 2 PM and 6 PM is a great way to explore the menu without the late-night energy.
