About
Nestled on Kaua`i's North Shore and connected to the Wainiha Country Market, The Haven is a heartfelt creation by Emmalani, a lifelong island resident. Her vision was to establish more than just a coffee shop; she aimed to cultivate a space for authentic connection, reminiscent of a welcoming local home rather than a tourist stop. Here, the emphasis is on quality beverages, from coffee to Matcha and Chai, and fostering genuine interactions. You'll find that community is placed above all else, creating an atmosphere where lingering and conversation are encouraged. The Haven's commitment to the island shines through its practices. They prioritize sourcing premium ingredients from local farmers and small farms, ensuring every sip supports the community. Their food offerings, featuring fresh goodies from local bakers across Kaua`i, change daily, adding a delightful element of surprise. Emmalani herself is often behind the bar, embodying the warm, personal touch that defines this special spot. It's a place where "sipping easy" meets meaningful connection, deeply rooted in local values and a passion for quality.
