“This is a solid local community kava bar. They're open 24 hours, if you want late night or early morning. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about their products.
They have some standard pub foods to choose from, as well as locally made empanadas, which are fantastic. I'm not a vegan, but the vegan chorizo empanada is fantastic.
Late night, it's more like a night club, having outdoor evening music events at least once a week. They always have something going on every week.”

“Listen… Riptide Kava Bar is not just a bar, it’s a full-on sensory gang heist against your boring life. You walk in expecting to sip kava and maybe chill. Five seconds later, your soul is doing the electric slide with neon colors and cosmic vibes, and you’re asking yourself if you’ve entered a secret art museum run by friendly, caffeinated anarchists.
Let’s talk the art — the menu? The walls? Holy hell. The artwork here is criminally good. Each menu page looks like a tiny masterpiece hand-delivered by a caffeinated Van Gogh on a cosmic sugar rush. Bold lines, insane colors, psychedelic chaos — it tells you exactly what each drink is gonna do to your body before you even sip it. And the walls? Oh, the walls. They’re alive. Every mural, every painting, every splatter of color feels like someone dipped a rainbow in pure joy and told it to punch you in the soul. I’ve stared at these walls for minutes at a time, completely forgetting I came here for a drink.
And don’t even get me started on the staff. They’re hilarious, borderline psychic, and serve kava like it’s a sacred gangster ritual. The drinks? Potions. Every sip hits your body with the smooth precision of a ninja monk in designer sneakers. You leave chill as a monk but still ready to take over the world.
The crowd? Pure fun. Weird, wild, and unashamedly human — the kind of people who make you feel like being alive is the best prank ever.
To anyone complaining about minor stuff? Step aside. You clearly can’t handle the combination of mind-bendingly good kava, the dopest art you’ve ever seen in a bar, and the chillest, funniest vibes in Lake Worth.
Riptide Kava Bar is gangster, unhinged, fun as hell, and visually, artistically, spiritually unmatched. Five stars, zero regrets, and a high probability I’ll be back tomorrow just to bask in the art and sip bliss like a criminally happy monk. 🎨💥🍹🌊”

“A wide selection of drinks from kava to kratom regular teas to all types of special-teas. Some killer homemade empanadas with a vegan chorizo one that takes the cake in my eyes. They have events frequently and free tournaments that just require a purchase to enter with real prizes. Finally the atmosphere is so unique. From colorful clouds to welcome you in to an earthy chill spot on the back patio. All around one of the best kava bars available around. In an area drowning in them this one stands in a league of its own”
