Best coffee I've had since arriving to the island. I moved from Seattle Washington and was getting distraught on if I'd ever find good coffee in Honolulu. Then, I found the curb! If you love good coffee and good service, stop on by!
I just visited this place today and I want to go back! A fun, cozy atmosphere with a great display of coffee brewing equipment laid out for all to see. And this isn't some push button robot machinery, too. The Baristas practice an art form that you can't just get at any espresso shop. This is coffee brewed to perfection. And you can taste the difference. I also love the assortment of whole beans that they sell here. If you are looking to try some great coffee, whether it is single origin coffee beans or blends carefully selected and roasted by some great "micro roasters", this is the place to go. The Curb is definitely leading the way for the craft coffee scene in Oahu. And it's about time for Hawaii!
This is one of our favorite cafes on the island. There is a small parking lot around back which might be full but street parking should be okay too. There's usually been a line out the back door when coming here even on weekdays.
Egggggcellent espresso and tea! They also have specialty and seasonal drinks like pandan matcha and spiced lattes. Got the twilight zone with oatmilk and an iced pandan latte. Both were 🫶🌺🫰. Their cookies and food are really unique and yummy too with fresh ingredients. They got rid of their strawberry matcha cookie from a few years back though which is quite sad.
Good co-working and hangout space but there is no wifi.
Really good coffee from various small-business, speciality coffee roasters. Even the decaf (americano) is fragrant and tastes good. Almost got a second cup… Some tea & matcha drinks complement the thoughtful coffee drink selection.
Never got food here, but I’ve seen people eating things that come from the tiny kitchen.
Bring a jacket, as it’s always frigid cold in here !
On weekend evenings, the wine bar is outstanding. Small growers who care about what goes into their wines. Delicious. I love it.
Found this spot online through an Eater article. Fantastic location. Easy to find and parking was close enough. I found their cafe inviting and easy to find what I needed. I ordered an espresso which was an “Onyx” coffee blend for espresso. The guy taking the order was nice but seemed very blah. Like not super inviting. Idk. It was 7:15 am. Otherwise the place was great.
If you’re a mainlander used to the Portland, SF, type coffees this is your spot. They even carry bags from all over. Very very good roaster options for brewing you stuff at home.
I also ordered their Brioche toast. I haven’t the slightest what was on it but I was in love. Damn it was good.
Really happy we came in here. Service was friendly and quick. Drinks were sooo good: Excellent batch brew and the matcha drink with the orange whipped cream was clever and delicious.
Pastries were good and the black garlic cream cheese toast was excellent!
Pretty popular spot, I was able to find street parking not too far away and didn’t have to wait too long. Service was great, staff is friendly and the iced mocha I got was pretty good.
My favorite coffee shop in Honolulu! Kinda don’t want to share this, but hey the line is always there anyway! Ive come with friends and solo and found it to be the best spot to recharge oneself! That’s if you can avoid the young dudes making Latté art (2-stars on their skills), but all the women are boss here!
Long line but worth it. I arrived at 715 and the line was out the door (a good indication that it’s worth it). The queue is short inside (the counter is close to the door, so it looks longer than it is). They sell wine, chocolate, and coffee beans but I was too overwhelmed not to hold up the line or lose my place to check those out on the wall.
The service was amazing. I panicked and told the cashier what I normally get other places and she recommended a pandan latte with Mac nut milk iced. I also grabbed a banana bread too. Both were so good, I was so grateful when I tried them both. Great order and definitely will go back. FYI there is also no WiFi (if you were looking to work in there coffee shop style).
Frequently visit this coffee shop. Honestly one of the best coffee shops I've ever been to.
A very fresh take on a modern coffee shop. Good vibe, not overly homely to the extent of any messiness or anything. Just very clean and sleek but still a very casual and comfortable vibe.
I love following their social media to see what new yummy recipes they're experimenting with (when it comes to food + drink). (Love when they bring stroopwaffle latte! Also- I'm surprised they got rid of the slushy coffee drinks! I so looked forward to seeing what flavors they were doing with those and I was under the impression they were a big hit.)
The staff is always wonderful, friendly, and funny- you can tell they enjoy their jobs and working together, which is one of my favorite aspects of this restaurant.
Often good seating, always find parking.
My favorite coffee spot on the island. My husband and I drive from Ewa to come here most weekends. Their homemade vanilla syrup is delicious for their lattes.
Very fun vibe, in a clean and modern coffee shop. Got the George with oat milk and the cold brew, and found the cold brew to be spectacular! The guy taking the order was very friendly and gave some good suggestions for things to check out while in the area.
