I had cappuccino, and after I completed my Kalalau trail I had matcha and croissants with feta and spinach to celebrate. Delicious, warm welcoming atmosphere. Nice design, comfortable chairs out and patio outside.

Lovely little shop! Good coffee and great service. Grabbed a latte before paddle boarding the river and it made for a 10/10 morning.

Best coffee and matcha we had on the island! The Fruit Loops Matcha and Banana Bread Latte were amazing, and the ladies working there were so kind. Don’t miss this little gem!

This coffee spot was recommended to us by a local- so happy we were able to stop in! Such a cute vibe and great hospitality. We got one of their drinks that donated 20% of portions to a conservation organization for earth day. Will be back!!

Absolutely incredible. After a string of very average (and some not-so-great) coffee stops around the island, my wife and I finally found The Haven and it blew us away. This isn’t just the best coffee in Hanalei, or even on the North Shore. It’s some of the best coffee we’ve ever had, period. Smooth, rich, perfectly balanced… every cup was spot on. The staff couldn’t be nicer. They were genuinely warm, welcoming, and they gave excellent recommendations. You can tell they care about coffee. We also tried a scone and it was fantastic. If you’re a coffee lover, this place is absolutely worth the drive. Don’t miss it. Very, very good.

Don't miss this gem of a coffee shop while you're on the North side of Kauai. Iced latte with Macadamia nut syrup was so delish. They also have some baked goods. I recommend the carrot, pineapple, coconut muffin!
