Honolulu Coffee

Checked out this coffee place on the island while coffee hopping and found it ok, average wise cafe. Location wise it's right next to the White colored Westin Resort hotel. It's located right by the building and their signage/board isn't that great, it's a small circular one, we found it hard to locate. Got the Hawaiian Latte which is nut flavored as its a mix of coconut and macadamia nuts flavor, it was new kinda taste and maybe would have been better for Iced? I got it hot and it was too sweet for my taste. My partner got the same with Iced and he liked it. There are Hawaiian souvenirs like candles, books and bags over the Cafe for visitors. Watched people, sky and enjoyed my cuppa this morning, my time-lapse video says it all, doesn't it? 😄

Really enjoyed the Hawaiian latte; a coconut and macadamia nut flavoured latte. I found it’s quite unique (as someone who isn’t from Hawaii) although many cafes will offer a similar rendition of these flavours. I think the merchandise for sale is also cute, albeit overpriced. Seating is not many, but I guess most people do walk around on the street rather than sit inside.

Waited 2 years to get back here to get that Hawaiian latte! Did not disappoint. Was a bit saddened when one of the workers accused me of stealing an acai bowl. I tried to explain to him that I had no idea what he was talking about but he didn't seem to be persuaded. It became a semi public spectacle and not how I envisioned my long- awaited Hawaiian latte experience to be. Also ordered acai bowl, overnight oats, croissant, green tea, oat bar... love this place barring that peculiar encounter. UPDATE: spoke with supervisor couple hours later. She recalled the incident, apologized, gave me a few drink tokens. Supervisor handled it nicely. I then went to their nearby Sheraton location and had a disappointing experience. Please see my review for that location also left on the same day

The açaí bowl here leaves much to be desired. Not a smooth melty bend, more of a thick icy blend… if you know what I mean. The matcha latte with oat milk I ordered was good as was the croissant. It’s a cute coffee shop that also has a nice retail section. It is expensive but everything in Honolulu is. $32 quick breaky.

Very good overall, just extremely long wait given it’s location. Found everything to be good, got the chocolate croissant, iced Hawaiian latte, açaí bowl and a cold brew. I think the cold brew was the better option of the two. Very charming and bright interior, just a bit difficult to fully enjoy and take it all in with how busy it is.

It is a good coffee spot. They have tasty coffee and great croissants that they can warm up. Croissants are delicious. And they have an açaí bowl that does not have a banana in its base (that was a challenge to find one as I am allergic to bananas). They always have a line outside, and they always have a weird order of giving drinks and food. You will get your croissant in a min after ordering it, but you will get your drinks in 15-20 min.. and you sit there and think, what’s happening to my drink. If you need to sit somewhere and do some work, it is a good place. They have some nice windows where you can just sit with your laptop and sip your coffee. Overall it is a great place, with great coffee and beyond-delicious croissants. What else do you need at 9 am? :)
