Ohana by the sea community cafe
8 Dexter Ln, Dover, NH
Crema's Take
“Founded by a former social worker, this Dover café is purposefully designed as a sanctuary where parents can linger over thoughtfully crafted coffee and pastries while kids explore a wonderland of play structures, sensory tables, and cozy nooks. The warm, community-focused atmosphere—complete with climbing slides, bean bag seats, and rotating activities—transforms it from a typical coffee shop into a gathering place where caregivers actually want to stay, making it equally perfect for a solo work session or a family adventure by the sea.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
