Good food, good company, great vibes.

Chopshaven began with a simple idea: that a plate of food should feel like a hug from home. What started as a love for the bold, comforting flavors of West African cooking has grown into a gathering place here in Saint John — a spot where jollof rice, egusi, and freshly steamed moi moi arrive at your table the way they’re meant to: hot, generous, and made with care.

Every dish on our menu is rooted in tradition, but built for the moment you’re in. Whether you’re stopping in after work, gathering the family for Sunday dinner, or ordering ahead for a night in, we want the first bite to remind you why good food is worth slowing down for.

Chopshaven isn’t just about the menu — it’s about the room. Warm light, familiar music, and the kind of hospitality that makes strangers feel like regulars. Pull up a seat. You’re always welcome at our table.
