Happy New Year, everyone!
We’re kicking off 2026 with some fun new offerings, a few returning favorites, and more reasons to make Haven part of your weekly routine. Here’s what’s coming up in January.
Last Hour Happy Hour
Starting today, January 20th, we’re introducing Last Hour Happy Hour every day during the final hour of business. Enjoy $1 off all beers & ciders, 20% off all BTG wine, select bites, including chef’s choice boards featuring one meat and one cheese, two meats and two cheeses and Haven bruschetta. Please note: Last Hour Happy Hour does not apply during special events (i.e., Trivia Night).
Hours: Sunday, Tuesday & Wednesday 7-8pm & Thursday, Friday & Saturday until 8- 9pm with drinks being served until 9:30pm
Early Table Pre-Fixe Menu
Launching January 21st. Join us on Wednesdays and Thursdays for Early Table, a relaxed early-evening, pre-fixe dining experience focused on great food and an easy start to your night. Available from 4:30 to 5:30 pm. No reservations needed. Details available on our menu.
Tinned Fish Tuesdays
Tuesdays are for tinned fish! Enjoy 10% off all dine-in tinned fish and tinned fish boards every Tuesday. A perfect excuse to try something new or revisit a favorite.
Valentine’s Day is Coming Soon!
Valentine’s and Galentine’s season is almost here! Whether you’re celebrating love, friendship, or just a great excuse to go out, Haven is a cozy place to gather with people you adore. Reservations are encouraged, so book early.
Trivia Night at Haven!
Trivia is returning to the Willows! Our first Trivia Night will be Wednesday, February 4th at 6pm, so dust off your team name and your competitive spirit! We’re putting a fresh spin on a crowd favorite. Reservations are encouraged to secure your spot, as space is limited. Teams can range in size from 2-6. We can only accommodate 2 teams of up to 6 people, so booking ahead is the best way to play.
A few things to know:
Two item minimum per person, food or drink
Winning team receives a $50 Haven gift certificate
Come early, grab a table, and get ready to play!
Blind Tasting & Our Next “Meet the Winemaker” Event
We’re working on a Blind Tasting Night and our next “Meet the Winemaker” event. Details will be coming soon. Keep an eye on our socials for dates and sign ups.
Live Music in Back on February 14th
Live music returns to Haven starting February 14th. We’ll be featuring live music on the patio during brunch on the last Saturday of each month, and we’re kicking it off alongside our February Wine Club Pick Up Party. After how much fun our last pick up was, we’re leaning all the way into the vibes. Think live music, weekend energy, and a relaxed, festive way to collect your wines. More details coming soon.
As always, thank you for supporting Haven by joining us for meals, events, and evenings shared with friends & family. We’re grateful for the opportunity to build something special within our community and can’t wait to spend another year with you.
Sincerely,
Sam, Lea & the Haven Team

Pouring at Haven: A Night with Mela Vino
Thursday, May 28, 2026
Haven is proud to partner with Mela Vino, a woman-owned, Black-owned boutique wine brand out of Napa, California, for an intimate evening of wine, food, and community. We’re bringing together an all-women lineup to make it happen; because when women create together, something genuinely magical unfolds.
We’ve created two ways to experience it.
THE CHEF’S RESERVE TASTING — $150
Doors open at 6:00 PM with a welcome pour (Tasting to start at 6:30pm) | Limited to 8 guests
This is Haven’s most exclusive experience to date. Eight seats at our bar top. Three Mela wines. Three chef-curated bites designed specifically around each pour, conceived and executed by guest pop-up Chef Coco Curry. Coco brings creativity, intention, and a perspective that is entirely her own. This is an intimate, guided tasting designed for those who seek something rare. And the night doesn’t end there — Chef’s Reserve guests are invited to continue the evening on the patio at the Wine & Bites Social following their seating.

THE CHEF’S RESERVE TASTING$150 | 6:30 PM | 8 seats
THE WINE & BITES SOCIAL — $75
Doors open at 7:15 PM with a welcome pour.
Join us for the social half of the evening, a relaxed, vibrant gathering where you can explore Mela’s full wine lineup at your own pace. Enjoy elevated boards, Haven bites, and good company in our back patio space. And setting the tone for the entire night: DJ Vaish Anna on the decks, bringing the energy, the warmth, and the vibe that makes a good evening feel like something more. Wine discovery the way it should be: unhurried, social, and alive.

THE WINE & BITES SOCIAL$75 | 7:15 PM | Limited
Both experiences celebrate Mela wines as the star of the evening. One is intimate and chef-led. The other is open and community-driven. Together, with Coco in the kitchen and Vaish Anna on the music, they make for one unforgettable night.
All attendees receive 30% off to-go wine purchases on the night of the event. And one lucky guest will walk away with a special giveaway. You’ll just have to show up to find out what it is.
Mela wines are the heart of the evening from start to finish. However you choose to experience it. The night is yours!
