Caffeine Haven or Caffeine Heaven?? One in the same I say…read more.. My first cronut experience (not my last), a Hot Toffee Crunch Cold Brew Latte that hits like no other, and a Cranberry Delight Refresher that lives up to its name! This combo made for one happy customer, let me tell you! Caffeine Haven is such a cute spot. You walk in and you can immediately tell you've just stepped into a warm, welcoming environment! They've managed to develop this really lovely and authentic community feel. Plus the decor is just too sweet. A bookshelf in the corner with some children's toys/games, little kiddie tables (too cute), and plenty of seating for the grownups too :) This place is really for everyone! Not only are the staff super friendly, but you know they know what they're doing as soon as you sip one of their brilliantly crafted beverages. The latte was my favorite. My friend ordered for us so I had no clue it was made with almond milk (I'm a whole milk girl.) But you know what, I didn't mind. It was out of this world good! Didn't overdo it with the cinnamon, it was just this perfectly sweetened and spiced warm goodness. As for the Cranberry Refresher, this was absolute perfection. Sweet and just slightly tart. Even as the ice melted, the flavor did not get diluted which is not usually the case with these types of drinks. Finally, the cronut...hello to my new friend. How I've never tried one until now I have no clue, but if they're all as good as Cafe Havens, damn... It was chewy, buttery, with that cinnamon sugar. Yum and yum, the perfect side to the delectable latte! Whether you're picking up or you decide to stay a while, you won't be disappointed! It doesn't hurt that it's only 3minutes away from a new local gem, Dollar Donuts! I highly recommend checking them both out! You won't be disappointed :)

Along Route 9 in Lakewood Township, you will find a cozy cafe. I have been wanting to come there…read moreever since discovering it on Yelp. Brand: 5/5 From the sign to the wooden logo to the solid font, Kava Coffee House maintains a cozy aesthetic as a cafe in Lakewood. It is formally certified as a kosher eatery by the Kashrus Council of Lakewood, NJ. You will also find the wood theme plays out in the interior as well, with wooden panels and the wooden signs. Website: 5/5 The opening page offers you a glimpse into the classy design, from the images to the cool color scheme to the overall theme. I did like the interactive pages of the online menu. Kava powers the website through Order2, which has an advanced online ordering system. It also takes you to the basic description of the business, which discusses the cozy atmosphere and the extensive food selection. Wait Time: 5/5 I experienced no issues or delays with my order. Indeed, the establishment uses the name basis when announcing the order. Ambiance: 4/5 I did like the smooth jazz playing over the radio and the authentic fireplace at the center of the establishment, warming it during the winter. The wood panels on the floors and the walls evoke the cozy vibe of a cafe. Around noon, the establishment can get noisy and cluttered, though it did not prove cumbersome compared to the rickety table. I did not have any issue with the seats nor the space within the medium-sized dining area. Drink: 5/5 I ordered the Kava Supreme Frappuccino, which is their signature frappuccino, consisting of cookies & cream, caramel, peanut butter, blended with coffee, and ice cream, topped with whip cream, drizzle, and cookie crumble. It definitely has a sweet taste, but it did not overwhelm me, despite having so many ingredients. The caramel and the coffee did give it the spicy aftertaste. The ice cream did give it a smooth texture without making the frappuccino tedious to drink. Service: 5/5 I did not experience any issue with the staff. They did have patience with me when I blanked out on my order and had to return to the menu to remember what I wanted. Worth The Money?: 3/5 The Kava Supreme Frappuccino encapsulated the brand succinctly within a signature drink. The way the website uses interactive pages manages to introduce anyone to the menu items, including a section dedicated to their specialty dishes, in such a way unique to the establishment. The wait time it took to make the Kava Supreme Frappuccino matched the quality, and it did not feel tedious with nothing about the ambiance interfering my experience. The staff put a lot of effort into their dishes, and the specialty drinks are no exception. Based on my first impressions, I will say that Kava Coffee House managed to get me in a good mood with its fireplace and the smooth music. That good mood stayed with me throughout the time I enjoyed the Kava Supreme Frappuccino. The website reflects the ambiance of the business with its overall design. While the staff cooking in the background can be tedious if you sit too close to the kitchen, the noise did not burden me. Would I say that the price was worth it? I will say that I would have gotten a drink like the Kava Supreme Frappuccino to cost the same regardless of the cafe, however the other menu items did prove beyond my personal budget. Considering the maintenance of the website design and the fireplace, I will say that the ambiance and website do justify the high prices, but only a little. Rating: 5/5 Stars Between four or five stars, I ultimately chose five stars, because the experience going to Kava Coffee House made their signature drink worth it. Its taste stayed with me throughout the day. A lot of care has been put on Kava Coffee House and I have hope that it will continue to serve Lakewood Township. Recommend To... Anyone who is looking for a quick coffee without buying any additional snacks.

We typically look for a specialty drink sign or display, which they didn't have. Figured we'd keep it basic and get an iced latte with a flavored syrup.

Before coming, we reached out to ask if we could bring our dog, but we're told not to hang out only if it is a to go order. We did notice a guest was sitting inside with her dog on her lap, so that was confusing. This didn't hit the mark for us, but I know people have different preferences.

The ambiance was great. I would say this is a great coffee shop for coffee dates with your friends, partner, and even for studying. This coffee shop is spacious. Since I am not from around the area, I did find it a tab bit difficult to find the business. My sister and I had drove past it and had to go around and come back to the area to find it. And when we walked in we weren't sure if the door we walked in through was for customers to use to walk in. I noticed there were wall outlets so you can charge your laptop or cellphone. I love this fact that they had outlets readily accessible to the coffee shop patrons.10/10 coffee shop recommendation.

Move over Dunkin!! Lou is serving up some serious Donuts over here...and they're literally a $1!!!…read more First off, the place itself is super cute. Not too much seating, but you've got a couple tables where you can settle for a bit! The wall art is out of this world (literally)...loving the outerspace theme!! Then, your eyes travel over to the good stuff....donuts of all varieties! You've got the basics at $1, and then some signature donuts at $3. There's literally a Donut for everyone!! Let's talk details: - Size: They def appear smaller than your typical Donut, but they don't have the Donut hole, so in reality, you're getting a decent helping for $1 - Variety: You've got the basics (boston creme, jelly, glazed...), but then there's blueberry with lemon filling, coconunt with lemon filling, cereal topped, vanilla oreo...). - Taste & Texture: Dude, I'm not kidding. These were some of the best donuts I've had. The texture is soft, with a slight chew. You can literally see the air pockets when you tear it apart. We tried the vanilla oreo, strawberry vanilla filled, blueberry lemon filled, and powdered Jelly). Each had a lovely flavor! You can stop at one...but then you'll be craving more not even an hour later. - Shelf life: We all know how donuts can go stale from certain establishments (yet we still go back ;) ). Not these guys. They are truly baked fresh each. I practiced some serious self constraint and tested them over three days (I couldn't wait any longer(. The donuts held up through day 3, no lie. Now, here's the thing...you hear $1 donuts, you think this is gonna be a hit or miss, but you don't feel bad cause it's just a dollar so you're not breaking the bank. Then you bite into one of these bad boys and you're like damn...that's a dollar donut??!! That was my experience and I think it will be yours as well! If you haven't done so yet, stop by dollar donuts soon. I promise you will not be disappointed :) P.S. Thank you Lou for an exceptional experience. I still can't believe you literally went in the back to powder some Jelly donuts when you were out of them. That kind of service is absolutely above and beyond!! Loved hearing your family's story, and truly wishing you much success!

Some tables, chairs, simple decor, coffee, and the star THE DONUTS. The shop closed at 5, but they still had a good selection of donuts to choose from.

OMG, the donuts were soft and yummy we almost ate all of the 12 donuts! BEST PART IS THEY ARE ONLY $1!!!!!!!! Like what?!!!!! Definitely a must go, and we shall be back to try the other flavors!!!!
