WE ARE MORE THAN KAVA

Welcome to SquareRüt Kava Bar, the ultimate destination for a modern kava experience. Since 2011, we’ve been on a mission to make kava as accessible and beloved as coffee, bringing the ancient traditions of the South Pacific into the heart of Austin, Texas. Think of us as the Starbucks of kava—a place where you can savor the calming, uplifting effects of this remarkable root while enjoying a welcoming, community-focused atmosphere.

Whether you’re seeking a moment of relaxation, a space to connect with friends, or an alternative to your daily caffeine fix, SquareRüt offers a unique vibe that’s as inspiring as the drinks we serve.

Scott and Tracy discovered kava in 2008 and knew they had to bring it to Texas.

Whether it’s your first visit or your hundredth, we’ll make sure you feel right at home.
