Tucked into the Heart of Bishop Arts
Nestled on W Davis Street in the heart of one of Dallas’s most walkable neighborhoods, the kava bar Bishop Arts location was built for evenings that don’t need to rush. Whether you’re stopping in before dinner nearby, catching up with friends, or just looking for a quiet corner and a good drink – this is your spot.
Inside, the space feels warm and intimate, with booth seating and a softly lit bar that invites you to settle in. There’s also a private event room for up to 40 guests and a covered patio that’s easily one of the best places to sit along W Davis. It’s the kind of space that feels familiar the moment you see it – relaxed, welcoming, and easy to spend time in, just like in the kava bar Bishop Arts photos.
No alcohol. No judgment. Just a genuinely good night.
Take your time – whether you’re exploring the kava bar Bishop Arts menu or trying something new for the first time.

What We Serve
Drink Different Feel Better
Our menu is built around plant-based ingredients and intentional preparation. Each drink is simple, thoughtful, and made to fit naturally into the moment.
Rooted Relaxation
Kava
Earthy, traditional kava served in a Shell. A grounded experience that sits at the center of what we do. Available classic or blended, depending on your preference.
Plant-Powered Focus
Elixirs
Botanical blends crafted for different moods and moments. From light fruit-forward combinations to more layered herbal profiles, each drink is made fresh and intentional.
Smooth Energy
Coffee & Matcha
Sourced from Lemma Coffee Roasters. A clean, steady lift without heaviness. Our signature teal latte – matcha, oat milk, and honey is a guest favorite.
Herbal Balance
Teas
Simple, grounding herbal infusions. Seasonal selections rotate regularly based on availability and freshness. Ask your host what’s currently being served.
North Dallas Exclusive
The Bishop Bloom
Our Bishop Arts signature – kava infused with hibiscus and rose water, shaken with cold-pressed tart cherry, a float of butterfly pea flower, and a finishing touch of cardamom honey. Elegant, floral, and unlike anything on our core menu. Made for the neighborhood it was born in.
