    First time here. It was a cold morning, so I stopped in for a hot beverage and something to eat. Food: For not being a coffee shop, they have an extensive menu of hot and cold beverages. I ordered a London Fog Tea Latte, with a little lavender and a little vanilla, in a mug. The barista did a nice job and gave the tea a good long steep. It had excellent flavor, and the temperature was right (about 140°F). It would have been even better with a bit more foam on top. For bakery items, they had a big pile of large cookies (cowboy?), but not much else. The food menu is a little sparse but has some good options for breakfast or lunch sandwiches. I ordered a Cubano sandwich, which turned out to be an excellent choice. It came out hot, with nicely grilled bread and savory meats inside. The roasted pork was especially tender and flavorful. It came with a small container of slaw, which was a little uninspiring. Service: The person who took my order and made my drink did a nice job. She took her time and did a good job with the drink. I appreciated that they delivered both the drink and the food to the table. She was a bit soft-spoken and a little hard to hear with the music playing. Efficient, but not especially outgoing. Atmosphere: The space has a bit of an industrial minimalist feel. High ceilings with the mechanicals in plain sight, along with colorful paint and design elements. Seating can accommodate groups of different sizes, though there aren't too many spots ideal for couples. The space can be a bit echoey, and the volume of the music could make conversation challenging at times. It's a nice spot for groups to hang out, and there was a larger table where people were working and collaborating. A decent spot for hanging out at lunch or later in the afternoon.

    The food options may not be various, but they are DELICIOUS. The Jerk chicken sandwich is a MUST HAVE! Great prices and very friendly staff. The space they have available for co-working or just drinking with friends and family is perfect!

    Very friendly service and a chill atmosphere. You would never know this is a newer building because it feels old and established. It has a 70s macrame vibe. Nice place to grab a spot and do some reading or writing. There are several tables set up in the European communal styles Sort of like an indoor Biergarten. By the way you can grab a beer or cocktail here too.

    I have driven by a few times and wanted to check it out - so when a friend suggested grabbing breakfast there, I was down. First of all, I did not expect to walk in to see a room with such high ceilings and great natural light! I also didn't realize they had a bar in addition to the cafe. So, yes, it's a cafe with coffee and beverages you'd expect. But it also has alcoholic beverages. The food menu is a bit brief, so it's not a hearty meal, but works as a light meal or snack. Seating inside has a few couches and several long picnic tables. They also have some outdoor seating in front of their entrance.

    Really awesome space with high ceilings and soo much natural light! They open early for coffee and breakfast and late for cocktails. This place is perfect for any vibe you're feeling whether it's just a quick run for coffee, a working space, or even a place to grab drinks after work. They recently just opened and are still getting into the grove of things but definitely come out and show your support! I've driven past this place so many times before I actually stopped in and I'm so happy we have this place in the area now.

    I love trying new cafes so when I heard about Haven I was excited to check it out. I ordered a matcha latte (I asked the employee if theirs was any good and she said yes) unfortunately it wasn't my favorite. I also got a breakfast sandwich on an English muffin and the yogurt parfait . I liked that there were different bread options depending on your vibe that day. I enjoyed my sandwich although both the food and drinks did take a while to come out. I wasn't a big fan of the parfait. Overall though this is a really cute place. I like that it's kind of day to night with the bar and the space has comfy couches and some long tables that would be great for working or communing.

    saw this place was open and been meaning to try it! the inside was soooo cute--loved how it was decorated and different kinds of seating, couches, big table, smaller tables or bar stools! they host karaoke and other events too inside which i thought was cool. as for the food, wasnt that impressed. i got a sandwich that had a bit more to it for a whopping $15 and it was just alright. ordered an iced london fog too and it was not strong at all, more watery if anything. the service itself was really nice, loved talked to the cashier Morgan, he's a nice dude. wouldnt be that motivated to come back but maybe for a night time event to try their drinks.

    First time here. It's a historic building on the south end of Bay View. A big old white building…read more(previously called the White House) with a small parking lot on the south side. We had reservations at 6:00 on a Saturday night. (It was cold, a little drizzly, and windy out.) The front entrance has several steep steps, and when you walk through, you are literally at the host station. They were going to seat us right behind the host station, but we knew it was going to be a problem as people went in and out. We asked to be seated a little farther from the door, and after a bit of discussion (it sounded like this was going to be a little issue), they were able to find a table for two in the parlor. So glad! Got settled in right away with menus and waters. Our server did a good job of getting us up to speed on the menu, the service, and the cocktails. They did a very good job throughout the evening (thanks, Roberto). We settled on the Window Seat (Beef Tallow and Rosemary Washed Vodka, crazy but true) and the Night Clubbing (with espresso-infused Campari). Both were very good choices. We decided that we wanted to start with three dishes and then regroup if we needed more. These included the Bok Choy Salad, Cumin and Cinnamon Braised Pork Shoulder, and Venison Tartare (Dijon Ice Cream?). The Bok Choy Salad was a real surprise, with the entire collection being so bright and flavorful. The dates had a meaty quality. The dressing with Nuoc Cham was savory with just a bit of heat. We both decided that we could have made an entire meal of that. The Pork Shoulder came next and was a good portion, with the meat tender and flavorful. The Quinoa Polenta was interesting, but I can't say that it was something I would seek out. I have had Beef Tartare before, but this was a first for Venison Tartare, so of course I just had to order it. What struck me first was that the entire thing (not just the Dijon Ice Cream) was very cold, almost frozen. I tried a couple of bites, and it was so cold that unless you let it sit in your mouth to thaw out, it was somewhat tasteless. I spread it around the plate to thaw out, and it was a big improvement. It's a good-sized portion, and even after loading up on the three pieces of bread, there was still plenty left (maybe a couple more pieces of bread?). There were a couple of desserts that we would have loved to try, but we were full and had a performance to attend. So we will have to wait until next time. Really enjoyed our first dinner. Loved the inventiveness of the menu. The staff all seem to really care about the business and the diners. With the placement of the front door and the draftiness of the dining room, we will likely book our next dinner when the weather turns warmer.

Here you'll find plenty of brews on tap, wines, and a solid line up of canned drinks/seltzers. Most notable though, their house cocktails. I opted for the cocorita and was definitely a fan! If you like coconut flavor and margs, then you're in for a treat with this one. So refreshing and even comes with shaved coconut on the side of the glass. If tequila isn't your thing, they've got ya covered with all the other concoctions -- from a sunshine martini to a Gillian's island rum mixer. And even if you prefer NA, there's drinks cleverly called "placebo effects" for ya! Love the sprawling bar, with plenty of seats, that's right in front of the big open doors letting the fresh air in. Friendly faces behind the bar too. Look forward to returning!

The service was completely lovely and the prices are pretty reasonable. Get to it!

The space is cozy and dim and well decorated. The staff are always kind. some are more helpful or informative than others. You can pair the cheeses with every drink on the menu or try pre-paired boards. You can also buy cheeses from the dairy and others, as well as assorted related products at a small retail section or cut fresh from the cheese case. Parking is on the street and can be a pain in this saturated area. The reason for the drop in stars? Prior visits got you more wines and more food to pair it with. This visit had prices steady but fewer wines, less cheese and $1 upcharge for some wafer crackers. I know the economy is not great right now, but this now seems like an expensive place to bring friends, not a reasonable day outing.

It'll turn you into a cheese connoisseur if you're not already one. I fell in love with Gouda cheese as soon as I took a bite. We tried a classic cheese flight board and red wine only flight to pair with the different types of cheese. They made it into a gluten free spread so we had four types of cheese in lieu of the seasoned dried meat and gluten free crackers. The place is inviting, has nice decorations, great for going on a date or a casual catch up with your bestie. The staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. They knew so much about wine and cheese, I would want a whole Documentary on cheese. You can also purchase cheese and other goodies to go! Come on Thursdays, they have a discount on cheese boards!
