YAVA Kitchen and Brewhouse Introduces Limited Founder's Club as It Prepares for Early 2026 Opening
YAVA Kitchen and Brewhouse, the highly anticipated new restaurant and brewery opening in the Westshore development of Cumming in early 2026, has launched its Founder’s Club to invite neighbors to join the growing community behind the new restaurant and brewery. Inspired by YAVA’s mission to be “rooted in community and grounded in craft,” the Founder’s Club invites neighbors, families and friends to become part of the story before doors officially open. Limited to just 100 memberships, the program is designed to keep the experience personal, meaningful and rooted in genuine connection.
The Founder’s Club offers exclusive perks, including special tastings, early access invitations and ongoing member rewards. Membership also includes one of its most meaningful elements: a personalized name engraved on a stone in the patio firepit. Designed as a permanent tribute to the people who helped bring YAVA to life, the engraved stone ensures founding members will always be part of the space.
The program is an extension of YAVA’s goal to create a place where the community can gather for both everyday moments and memorable celebrations. Whether sitting down for a weeknight dinner, toasting a milestone or enjoying a cocktail with a neighbor, the Founder’s Club reinforces what will make YAVA special for Cumming residents.
“YAVA was imagined as a place where people feel connected and known,” said Blue Orbit Restaurant Consulting partner Michael Maxwell. “The Founder’s Club allows future guests to help build that sense of community from the beginning. By limiting the club to 100 members, we can ensure it remains a close-knit group that truly reflects the spirit of YAVA.”
With the holiday season approaching, the membership also offers a thoughtful gift idea for the food and beer lovers in the family. The combination of unique perks and a commemorative engraved stone in the patio firepit makes it a lasting, personal present for someone eager to be part of Cumming’s newest destination.
