    I rarely give a two-star review, especially to a place I've always loved, but this rating was earned. The reason I'm giving two stars instead of one is that the drinks were pretty good. We ordered three, although mine was overwhelmingly sweet. The real issue was the customer service. We came here because we love the brand and have always enjoyed the coffee, but the woman working behind the counter seemed unhappy that customers had even walked in. She was so rude to my wife and daughter that I was genuinely appalled. We spent $39 on three drinks and a donkey magnet, and even left a generous tip, only to be treated as though we were unwelcome. This is something management will want to address. Unfortunately, we will not be back.

    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.

    We ordered the beach bliss latte (white chocolate & macadamia nut). It was delicious! We came twice during our trip and appreciated that the barista remembered us too! We loved the taste of the coffee and the mac nut paired so nicely with it Will definitely be back if we're in the area!

My mom got the chicken fried steak and was dissapointed to see everything but the egg was frozen. The pancakes we got were decent, but clearly made from a box mix with a dough like taste. All other meals my family got had the same issues. In general it was mediocre for people with real breakfast expectations given not much was made in house. As someone who works at a restaurant, I dont recommend.

    Honestly, this place was getting 5 stars before I posted the reviews, rest assured that the food…read moreactually good so I do think the five stars is warranted. The guy that took our order was great though. Best personality and set the tone for the meal with the best energy as soon as we walked through the door. He recommended the mango lemonade to start (YUM- so glad I listened) and it was super refreshing. I ordered the ube michi pancakes and he recommended the pork fried rice with eggs for my husband as it was one of the more popular dishes. The pork fried rice was really good. The portion was just big enough and I'm not surprised at all that it's a top dish. I think the ube mochi pancakes were the star though. The text was good and the ube flavor really comes out, so much that I didn't want to use any coconut syrup for fear of drowning it out. I ate one without syrup and one with and the coconut syrup really compliments the pancake. Both flavor come out nicely.
