Haven Wine & Cheese

Specialty wine and cheese shop on Santa Cruz Avenue with curated bottles, artisan cheese selections, charcuterie, and knowledgeable staff in the heart of downtown Menlo Park.

Haven Wine + Cheese sits in the Willows neighborhood of Menlo Park, started by two friends who live locally and described on its site as female- and POC-owned. Plates include bruleed goat cheese with country bread and raspberry-thyme jam, a tinned fish board with country bread, butter and salt, a farm-to-table Caesar salad, house-made pickles and a matcha cream cheese mousse. Cheese and charcuterie boards, sandwiches and soups round out the food, with a sommelier-led wine club, charcuterie classes and winemaker talks.
