Join the team at Kavahana: a non-alcoholic kava nectar bar and Hawaiian coffee shop!
If you love making yummy drinks that make people smile and enjoy connecting with new people every day, you’ll be the perfect fit for our team!
Kavahana is more than just another coffee shop, and more than a bar. We're a bit of both! Offering island-inspired tingly drinks and a great space where people come to relax, socialize, and try kava nectar, a drink with over 3,000 years of history in the Pacific Islands.
At Kavahana, we host exciting events, serve craft non-alcoholic cocktails, and create a great experience for our customers. We’re looking for friendly & energetic barista-bartenders who are passionate about hospitality, love talking to people, and enjoy educating people about cool topics (like kava nectar!)
