Bula Deviant Family!

After a long journey of preparation, Deviant Kava has finally opened our doors in Parkville, Missouri, at 405 Main Street - Located just 15 minutes from Downtown Kansas City.

This is your guide to what Deviant Kava is, who we’re for, and what you’ll find when you visit.

What Is Deviant Kava?

Deviant Kava is a booze-free “third space,” designed for people who want something beyond the typical coffee shop or bar. Social spaces everywhere are shifting away from alcohol, and we’re part of that movement.

Picture the creative energy of a coffee shop or co-working spot (think Soho House vibes, not cubicles) blended with the easy social atmosphere of your neighborhood bar. Whether you’re looking to work, read, relax, or connect with friends, you’ll find a spot here.

Inside, you’ll find moody lighting, warm wood accents, and a mix of bar seating, cozy chairs, and big tables perfect for working on your laptop or catching up with friends.

We purpose-built this space for comfort and connection: remote workers escaping the home office, students needing a study break, creatives brainstorming ideas, and anyone exploring a sober-curious lifestyle. Deviant Kava is for people who want great drinks and conversation without the hangover.

What Drinks Can You Get at Deviant Kava?

Our menu is built to offer a range of alcohol-free options, from kava and kratom beverages to specialty coffee and wellness drinks. Here’s what you’ll find:
