    Our best daily go-to for coffee, matcha, and chai a little walk from Westin Nanea. Fun Bad Ass Coffee logo too for t-shirts and souvenirs. Always friendly service and fast lines. Thanks to barista Karen!

    I went here after seeing the Google reviews.. they really had a long line up to get coffee. Unfortunately they use the coffee beans that are not Hawaiian or the beans that are not 100% grown in hawaii.. I understand that the beans are very expensive but overall the coffee tasted okay.. not the best in Maui Overall the coffee shop itself looks amazing with the antique decor all around

    Great T Shirts and other swag

    Warning - can be a long line at times, but worth the wait. On this trip I had an iced macaroon latte (coconut and vanilla) and I had it with oat milk. So delicious. They also have a great selection of T Shirts and other branded swag, plus you can but the roasted beans. Has a surfer vibe to the place.

    Short walk from KShores. Really good coffee and lots of overpriced swag. Stuff was cool but we can for the coffee. Had med roast and light roast mac vanilla for hot. Good but discovered the ice coffee was great. Came back a few times. Sometimes line was long, other times we were second back. Just depends...but a good go for a cup.

    Today was my first time stopping into this local coffee shop. I've been wanting to grab a coffee here since I found out about them on Instagram. The man working was super friendly. And it seemed like they get familiar with their regulars. So it was very inviting seeing how he interacted with other customer espically regulars! The coffee tastes like strong Kona coffee. I got an iced vanilla latte and it was the best one I had my entire trip. I get coffee daily while on vacation and they delivered plus once we ordered he was fast. I'll definitely be popping back in when I'm in the area next and have already made my family try you.

    Love the coffee here! We have a local one back home! I thought I'd try this one to see if it was different! It was not! It was equally as good as the one back home! Service was alright but it was quick. Also just FYI, there is no food menu. Not sure if this is a new policy as I had seen a review from May where they had a food menu. This bad ass coffee doesn't have one present day. Vibe is mellow and chill, but it's definitely in and out as they don't have many seats inside.

    Cute coffee shop with a little store inside. I got the slushy like coffee drink since it was warm out and it was good but too sweet. My fiancée got the black coffee and said it was above average. Service was counter service but friendly.

    I love coming to this location. The employees are always welcoming and friendly. They have so many options of drinks to choose from. Take your time going through the menu so you get what you like. There is a beautiful park across the street with beach access and bathrooms. I saw a turtle wave hello as it swam by.

    I loved this company back in the 90's, probably because of the name alone, so when I saw it here in Lahaina, I had to come check it out. What surprised me the most was how much I liked the coffee. On top of that, the people running the place were so nice and friendly, it just adds to it. We bought a pound of dark roast to take home and we'll probably stop here on the way to the airport for a wake up coffee, but we'll make a point of coming here when we visit Maui from here on out.

    Conveniently located inside Whalers Village, this is a must-visit whenever you're in Maui. I've…read morebeen here multiple times, and you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. If you're looking for a refreshing breakfast or snack after the beach, their açaí bowls are some of the best on the island. We tried two different bowls, and both were beautifully presented and loaded with fresh fruit. The açaí was perfectly blended and topped with sweet papaya, raspberries, toasted coconut, and a creamy scoop of frozen yogurt. The other bowl was topped with fresh bananas, strawberries, and blueberries, little bit of honey to add some sweetness, making it light and refreshing. Everything was made fresh, the portions were generous, and the presentation was appreciated--even decorated with fresh orchid flowers. One of the best parts is that you can customize your bowl exactly how you like it. They also offer flavorful coffee drinks that pair perfectly with breakfast. It's a walk-up counter where you order first, and there's plenty of indoor seating to relax and enjoy your meal. The staff was friendly, and the service was quick. We look forward to coming back every time we visit Maui!

The coffee also came out very quickly but I will say if you are in a rush I would recommend ordering an açaí bowl, as those came out much faster than the cooked food. For coffee, I ordered an iced vanilla latte and it was just okay. However, my sister ordered the iced island latte and it was very good just was more dessert like to me! For food I had the pesto chicken sandwich and it was super good and was a very nice portion. Overall I would come back again but I am not sure if it was completely worth the hype/wait.

You order at the counter, find a table, and they'll bring your food out when it's ready. We always have a great meal here! Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. The Loco Moco was rich and comforting, with a perfectly seasoned beef patty, fluffy rice, and delicious brown gravy. The chilaquiles were packed with flavor and topped with perfectly cooked eggs and fresh green onions for a nice crunch. I do have to mention that they're a little on the spicy side, but absolutely worth it! The cinnamon roll was the perfect way to end the meal--soft, warm, and topped with just the right amount of sweet icing. The service was efficient and friendly, and the atmosphere was casual and welcoming. If you're looking for an amazing breakfast or brunch in Maui, this place is definitely worth a visit. We'll be back every time we're in town!

Two cashiers taking orders. There is also dedicated to-go order kiosk. Nice! Took few minutes to take our orde and we got a basket with utensils and napkins.

Value: 5 stars Service: 5 stars Cleaness: another 5 My Ube drink was delicious, so was the pancakes. Fried rice was ok. Cinnamon rolls are in the hotel room still, yogurt parfait was pre-made and granola was chewy instead of crunchy. Over all, 5 stars and repeat business is necessary.

It's sad when these Maui places blow up then up the prices to where it's just not worth it. I used to go in and buy 3 for myself. Not anymore. I'm just as happy with grocery store pies.
