Better Daze is a cute shack located on Kapahulu. Parking is very limited. It shares the same lot as Ono's seafood so if you go at the same time as their opening hours, it could be difficult to find parking in the lot or there is street parking as well. There is a lot next door but it is for the customers for their property only. We ordered the coconut cloud matcha and the mushroom elixir latte both with oat milk. The matcha flavor was lacking and their foam was a nice light coconut flavor. It was a bit on the sweeter side. I enjoyed the mushroom elixir latte it was good and their ingredients complimented the espresso to still have a strong coffee flavor. I would come back for their coffee espresso items. If you're looking for a strong matcha, this wouldn't be it. read more

Always been on my radar but every time i pass by no parking . This morning finally a few parking available @ 8:00am alright . I've seen a lot of post on this nice little coffee kiosk so had to give it a shot . I really enjoyed their coffee plus very nice and helpful ladies working inside the kiosk . I asked one of them first time here and she ask what type of coffee do I like . I replied I like white chocolate mocha she said they can create a coffee very similar since they do not have white chocolate mocha. So I said that will be nice . She advised me that it will consist of Cacao mocha with vanilla syrup w/splash of milk . That is customer service explaining the type of coffee that I'll be having that was really awesome. Better Daze shares parking with Ono Seafood and Soccer Locker so you can imagine it can get very crowded. Support local and I'll be definitely back in the near future to try something else read more

Very cute little shack that sells amazing coffee - and I wish we have this in LA. We got the vanilla bean and brown sugar latte, coconut cloud cold brew, and a matcha latte. Everything was so good we wish we had more of our drinks cause we finished it so fast. I love how their coffee is strong but it's so smooth!! Wish I could have this everyday. Friendly staff, fast service, and they even have some seating next to their store. I love how cute this place is. read more

I pulled up early on a Thursday morning, there was plenty of parking. I would imagine on a weekend there would be none and you would need to find street parking. I ordered the iced Mac nut latte and it was so good. There was a strong coffee flavor which I love and the Mac nut flavor was great. One of the best Mac nut lattes I've had. read more

This was my favorite coffee spot while visiting Oahu! The menu offers a variety of different drinks, including a variety of options for black coffee, lattes, matcha, teas, and lemonade. Every time I visited, I'd get a pour over and was super happy with my drink. My husband is more picky with his coffee and even he said that this was some of the best coffee he's had. So if you're thinking about coming here, this is your sign! The store is moreso a stand if anything, but it is super cute and aesthetic. The service here has always been friendly and the barista went out of her way to make conversation with us (positive points too that she's also a California native like us). This spot shares the same parking lot with Ono so be prepared for a struggle finding parking and tight spots. read more

Cute coffee/matcha hut that's tucked away near Leonard's. Really friendly barista when my partner and I came in the morning. Great vibes from her that further elevated our visit, on top of the delicious drinks! We got the coconut cloud matcha and the coconut cloud coldbrew. The matcha was really balanced and the cold brew was not bitter at all, both paired well with the coconut cloud topping. Cozy sitting area and a couple of parking spots available too. read more

Continuing our coffee hunt, we trekked to Kapahulu to visit this cute cart located within a parking lot attached to a walk up apartment complex. Its a nice cool morning, so perfect for some coffee! Americano ($4.00) - nice temperature, not bitter Organic Pumpkin Spice Latte ($6.75) - cozy and autumny Locally made (Big Time Bagels) plain bagell with roasted garlic and herb cream cheese ($8.00) - seriously worth every cent! When we first arrived there was just one other customer, but as we sat in their little dining area and enjoyed our bagel, at least 20 people had ordered and departed with their drinks and baked items. Service is friendly and rather quick considering its a crew of two. read more

My amazing husband made it a point to research different coffee shops on Yelp so we could try a new one each day of our trip. Better Daze was our choice for our final morning. We made the walk over from our hotel and had a great walk, it's a bit out of the way, but totally worth going to. It's a little coffee cart that you might miss if you're not looking for it and it's next to a plaza with parking available. I ordered the Iced Rose Latte ($7.75) and my husband ordered the Cloud Chai ($8). The staff members warned my husband that they make their chai with a good amount of spice, and some customers aren't fans of it, but this made him even more excited. My rose latte was delicious and had decorative rose petals on top. The rose flavor wasn't overpowering and the coffee was great. My husband LOVED his Cloud Chai so much (I didn't even get a sip!) and he ended up buying a second drink right away so he could try more of their menu. His second drink was the Soul Chai with honey ($7.75) and he liked this one as well, but says the Cloud Chai is the one he'd order any time we get the chance to visit again. He even says it makes his top five chai that he's ever had. This is a small coffee cart/kiosk and there's only two people working but you can tell they put a lot of heart into their drinks. read more

These cute little coffee truck was a great stop post workout. The baristas were friendly and the drinks came out very quickly. In the morning the other shops around it are closed so there was parking available which was nice. We got an iced honey chai with almond milk. The chai was flavorful. It was a bit in the ginger side, which I enjoyed but something to be aware of. The honey cinnamon latte with almond milk was also delicious. Prices are reasonable. The overall experience was very present and I would go back! read more

I wanted to give this place another try, but today I ordered a 12 oz chai and noticed it felt a little light. Weird, but whatever ... after walking for a few mins I opened the lid and see it's super short filled. I'm not sure why someone would serve that. I could've just gotten an 8 oz. The chai is great and the service is nice enough, but I rarely buy coffee/tea out because I make it at home so it's gotta be worth it for me to revisit a coffee shop. This was my second time having a not so great experience here so I probably won't come back. read more

Very unexpected but I actually enjoyed the matcha here! One of my girlfriends makes the long walk here every morning to get a Coconut Cloud Matcha Latte and I couldn't understand the hype. I know there's always a bunch of people in front of this little shack stand ordering coffee or teas. But my girlfriend used to frequent Ars or Daily Whisk and raved about their matcha, but I was pretty disappointed every time I went to either café. I poo-pood this place until recently when I went to Pai Cafe to compare their matcha to the Coconut Cloud Matcha here - wow..the matcha they use at Better Daze tastes significantly better. The coconut foam taste is a nice added layering flavor. I've had so much matcha recently, but I think this one stood out in a good way. Probably up there with the ones I had at Cooke St and Cha to Zen. Still on the hunt for the perfect matcha on island! read more

Been wanting to try this little coffee spot for quite some time. Located right next to Ono seafood there is minimal parking depending what time you come. Their menu is pretty extensive for a little coffee shack - lots of variety and good drinks to choose from. I like that they had a handful of matcha options! We got the Mushroom Elixir and Coconut Cloud matcha. I thought the mushroom elixir would've been more earthy but it actually tasted great considering how it also tasted strong. The coconut cloud was sweeter than I like but still good if you need a pick me up. We also got the banana ulu bread. I felt the texture was a little mushy and I probably wouldn't buy it again. It wasn't gross tasting just an interesting texture. read more

I was so sure I reviewed Better Daze in Kapahulu before, but apparently not! This cute business is located in the same lot as Ono Seafood. They have an adorable set up with plants and seats by the business. All of the drinks I tried here are delicious! My current fave is the coconut cloud matcha, and I'm not even the biggest fan of coconut. Absolutely delicious and well made! The baristas are always so sweet and lovely. Only downside is it can get pricey, but totally worth the occasional treat! Check them out and support local! read more

Better Daze is tucked away in a shack in the same parking lot as Ono's Seafood. I will say that this is one of the worst parking lots to get stuck in and it can get pretty packed knowing how famous Ono's is. I would say this is the ONLY downfall to this business. However, there is some street parking behind the lot as well as parking stall at the business plaza next door, but this does request payment if you aren't visiting a business within this plaza before or after your trip to Better Daze. There are so many great coffee and matcha shops within the Kaimuki and Kapahulu area, but the one thing that outshines this place from all the other is the Coconut Cloud Foam. This is basically a haupia whipped cold foam that adds +5 points to any drink it's on top of. I would love to try all their other drinks, but I always end up ordering either the coconut cloud matcha or the coconut cloud cold brew. Great service, staff is always friendly and super cute outdoor seating. It is kind of small, but it is a shack in a parking lot, so nothing too crazy. I recently had a friend from the Bay visit and she requested to grab some matcha. I ended up taking her here and after her first sip she said was "Kira, this is fire." What more do I need to add? read more

The girls are super sweet and nice I feel like maybe my standards for matcha are just too high? As an Asian American. I like my matcha drinks to be strong flavor and delicious. This matcha cloud was subtle and milky...(I personally don't think the oat milk flavor should be the strongest flavor of the drink) the drink recipe was honestly a 5/10 mid. Not enough matcha, not enough haupia. After the tsunami alert yesterday, life is too short for mid matcha. Sadly I would not get it again or recommend. But it's a super cute spot and nice girls, they still added more matcha and sweetner to my drink and it still wasn't enough. For Hawaii being so close to Japan I have much higher expectations for the matcha out here. Maybe I am looking at the wrong places. But I'm sure their other drinks are good! This review is just a NTS. read more

Better Daze is a small charming coffee trailer off of Kapahulu. I ordered the iced honey cinnamon latte. Substituted whole milk with oat milk for an extra $1. They weren't too busy, so my order was ready in 5 minutes. They also had a small table and a few chairs outside where I could wait. The latte was creamy and not too sweet. They are conveniently open early, so I can stop by before work and I will definitely come back to try their matcha or chai. The only inconvenience is that they share a lot with Ono Seafood and parking is limited, so I used metered parking and walked. read more

This is a cute little spot for coffee or matcha! This coffee stand is located along Kapahulu in a parking lot, and there's some parking available in the small lot it's located in (if not, you'll have to hunt for street parking or park in the adjacent lot). There is some outdoor seating available right next to store. The stand itself is super small and cute, painted in a bright robin's egg blue! I ordered the honey matcha with oat milk, and the girl working the stand was super sweet and helpful! My drink came out promptly, and overall I liked it! It was a little too sweet for my taste, or alternatively I wish the matcha flavor was stronger, but the drink was smooth with a pleasant matcha flavor.

Been wanting to try this spot for quite some time, but it is far of a drive from the Westside. Finally got to try it this past weekend when I was close in the area with friends. You will see the stand as you drive down Kapahulu. Parking might be tight as it shares with the same area with Ono Seafood. But people should be going in and out, if you don't mind waiting. We were there on a Saturday and it wasn't too bad. There are a couple tables out front of the stand if you want to enjoy your drink for a bit. Love the greenery near the stand also. I hope maybe someday they can open a storefront (if that goes along with the plan). But I can see the vibe that they are going for. The drinks were worth the drive out. Definitely mix in the coconut cloud to taste the flavor in the Matcha. Not too sweet, which I like. You're able to modify the milk, for my fellow non-dairy drinkers hehe. It's a smooth mix and I hope to come again to try a different drink. read more

My wife and I made the trek to Down to Earth on our recent visit to Oahu to try out their mango…read moresticky rice smoothie that's been popping up a bunch across social media. Although $12 is a lot to pay for a smoothie, it's certainly not unheard of in this day and age. The mango flavor is definitely there and I liked that the smoothie wasn't too sweet, but the sticky rice component was difficult to drink through the small straw and was actually a bit mushy in texture. The drink has the novelty factor, but it's definitely not something I would order again. The reason why Down to Earth is coming in at a three-star for me is due to the poor value of the items offered in the store, particularly items located in the ready-made food section. Seeing a single slice of banana bread priced over $5 is absolutely criminal. Overall, I would not go out of my way to visit Down to Earth for their smoothie, hot food bar, nor groceries.

Made to order burgers, sandwiches, smoothies, juices and more!

We have found many staple items that fit her dietary needs. I also like purchasing meats from here because I know they are fresh and the animals are humanely treated. The meat stays red for much longer and does not spoil. While prices can be high, it is what she needs. Being an Amazon prime member also helps with their special deals. Just scan your barcode from the Amazon app when checking out. This location is always busy with lines going into the aisles. The new self checkout helps ease this because often times people are only grabbing a handful of items. Note that this location is also an Amazon return location located at the front of the store by the exit. Ample parking in kahala mall as well.

We have now hosted two events which we had catered by this Whole Foods and it has been a huge success.

I have to specifically call out the quiche, one of our guests made the comment that he makes quiche and is a self-proclaimed quiche connoisseur and this was the best quiche he's ever had!! HUGE praise!! Thank you for always being timely, for the food being fresh and beautiful and for the great service.

Every week they rotate in different meals, so it never feels boring or repetitive -- I actually look forward to seeing what's on the menu. Living in Hawaii, groceries are so expensive, and meal prepping used to take up so much of my time (and money). Malama Meals has not only saved me time and effort but has also helped me save money. The portions are perfect -- I get the regular-sized meals, and they always leave me feeling satisfied without that uncomfortable, overly full feeling. On top of the food being absolutely delicious and super fresh, the woman who runs it is incredibly sweet and thoughtful. She's always kind and welcoming every time I pick up my meals, and it's clear she puts so much love and care into her business. I'm so grateful that this company exists. It's made eating well and staying nourished so easy and enjoyable. Highly recommend to anyone looking to simplify their week and still eat amazing food!

I got here and parked right outside at just about 7, and the lights were dimmed and the door was closed and locked. There was no sign on the door about any sort of emergency closure or anything for the day, and in fact there was a young employee who was still in there and I know he saw me and he quickly scurried into the back probably to not have to reopen and help me out. I even called the store directly while I was standing outside to see if he'd answer the phone and he just let it ring. I get it Google store hours can sometimes be wrong due to lack of update but even the physical store hour sign says 8pm. And it's not like I showed up 5 minutes before closed, I was there a whole hour before posted closing. It was a waste of my time and gas money to have to deal with this, and I just want the owner of this shop to be aware of employees potentially taking advantage by closing up shop before they should. I was looking to spend about $150 this trip and that's a sale that just doesn't happen when employees don't open the door for customers despite the posted hours.

After a long day of travel, I picked up an Amazon package here then stayed specifically to use the cafe/bar outlets to charge my dead phone so I could safely navigate the 50 minute walk back to my hotel. Every single outlet in the cafe and bar area is broken. When I asked for help, a team member named John was kind enough to charge my phone behind the counter but noted he couldn't be responsible for it. Because I was in visible physical distress and struggling to stand still due to POTS, I sat on the floor nearby to stay with my property while it charged. A supervisor named Taylor approached me and immediately escalated the situation. Instead of showing an ounce of empathy for a customer who was clearly disabled, she told me I "couldn't sit on the floor." When I asked if I could stand instead, she remained hostile and dismissive. She then claimed I couldn't use the outlets because they were "connected to the registers" and that plugging in a phone could lead to "hacking." As someone with a Master's in STEM and a career in IT, I can tell you that is technically impossible and an embarrassing, tech-illiterate excuse to use to mask poor facility maintenance. Taylor's behavior was unprofessional and frankly, a massive power-trip. If you need a functioning outlet or basic human decency in a multi-million dollar flagship store, go somewhere else. Taylor clearly values "store optics" over the actual safety and well-being of her customers.

This might be one of the only places in Waikiki open at 4 AM which is perfect if you've just arrived the night before from the East Coast. The inside of the shop feels homey. They have a display case full of pastries along with additional baked goods set out nearby. For my coffee on this morning I decided to go with a coconut latte and then ordered a blueberry malasada while my father went with a custard-filled one. At Maleko, the malasadas are pre-made but not filled until you order which I think is a smart move. I first tried my blueberry malasada and thought it was good. The dough was light and fluffy and the filling had a great flavor. As for my coffee, I have to agree with other reviews that the syrup made it overly sweet. I still drank it, but I definitely would have preferred something less sweet. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again for the malasadas. As for the coffee, I would probably pass unless you prefer your drinks on the sweeter side.
