We got a latte with soy milk and a latte with oat milk. We tried Kona coffee from a few places now and this was the first place where we could really taste the unique Kona coffee flavors - earthy, chocolatey (especially with oat milk; with soy, you can taste the soy flavor a bit and the Kona coffee flavor's not as strong). Came back a few more times since it's so good and their lattes are very consistent! We also tried their vegan chocolate croissant. They helped us warm up the croissant, but it was still cold on the inside (the chocolate filling and bottom side of the pastry). That was a bit disappointing, but it still tasted good and probably would have been even better thoroughly warmed! (The ice cream is NOT vegan for those wondering if it's vegan ice cream. We inquired since they don't serve cow milk in their coffees, so we thought maybe their ice cream was so vegan.) read more

We ordered an açaí bowl, and it was terrible, worse than something a five-year-old could make at home. The service was essentially nonexistent, yet I still left a tip for simply handing me the bowl. I mentioned that we were kamaʻāina, but the employee had difficulty communicating and made it seem as though he had applied the discount. After paying and asking for the receipt, I realized that no discount had been given. He then told me, "I think the kamaʻāina discount only applies to people who live on this island." I replied, "You're definitely not from here." He said " Yes" It's a joke. read more

Super cute cafe with chairs out in front where you can rest and sip on your coffee. The coffee ice cubes were a huge plus. I got an iced latte with macadamia nut syrup. It came with only 3 ice cubes and was on the sweeter side. read more

This is a cute little cafe and gift shop on Ali'i Drive in Kailua Town. They have indoor and outdoor seating too. Inside they have lots of locally made gifts, including many with the cafe logo. Prices are reasonable. The barista was super friendly. This is an alternative dairy cafe, no actual milk products are used including in the cheeses. A favorite highlight was the use of coffee ice cubs in the ice coffee; delicious and refreshing! read more

We were shocked at the taste of our drinks and bagels here. I got an iced mocha, and my friend got a mac nut latte (as recommended by our barista). We were excited to try this place because it had a cute ambiance and naturally we took a sip of your coffees right when we got them. However, our lattes did not taste like lattes. They tasted like grainy iced coffees (watered down). My friend added sugar yo hers, and I added agave, but it did not help. Also, we were unfamiliar with vegan butter being unsalted, so we added some salt for personal preference, however our bagels' texture was not toasted from the start. Our barista appeared to put the bagels in to toast right when we ordered them (and before we ordered our drinks an payed) because bagels took a while to toast. So our expectation was that they would be toasted when we got them. But they weren't. read more

Super cute coffee and gift shop. I tried their iced matcha latte with oat milk. Matcha was a little muddy and I mostly tasted the oat milk. The color was a little too light green in my opinion. Maybe skip the matcha and try their coffee or ice cream! The person who took my order was super nice too! read more

Tried their acai bowl. Asked for recommendation from the person at the counter. Got the Tropical Thunder which she recommended. It had granola and mixed tropical fruits. While it had pineapple which is definitely tropical, it also had raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries. It was alright. I did not think it was special. They serve coffee, frozen drinks, ice cream, and pastries. They have some outdoor seating as well. Service was alright. read more

The place was walking distance, about 7 minutes away. Pretty walk for 9am. Lots of people out walking and grabbing coffee. The cappuccino was average, oatmilk, no art on top, pretty expensive for what it was. Nothing special. The place was cute, fun mugs to purchase and extraordinary coffee beans. Very pricey beans so they must be good. The server was kind and good at her job. The smoothie was way better than the coffee. read more

My son recommended this shop from a previous visit and so glad we stopped in. Right on Ali'i drive in a great location surrounded by shops and other restaurants, Bikini Bottoms offers some great food to start your day. Great breakfast sandwiches, açaí bowls and lattes. Staff were super friendly which really did seem to be a consistent vibe in Kona. read more

Walked around Ali'i drive and came across this place. The inside and outside of the shop was super cute and there was seating. Ordered the Lava acai bowl and was very disappointed. For $18 it was not worth it, and the acai base and sesame butter was just alright. I feel there's way better acai bowls for cheaper too. Staff was friendly but probably wouldn't come back for an açaí bowl. read more

If you love going to those places where you order one thing and they repeat back your order and it's totally different, charge you for something you never ordered and then deliver a completely random coffee than this chaos in a coffer shop is the place for you. Pro tip - keep repeating your original order and see just how much more random it gets. Coffee I got was pretty good. Small patio outside but seating is a bit limited. read more

We stopped in for some ice cream. Very delicious. I got the lilikoi cheesecake ice cream. My sister got one with cookies and bananas. 10/10. Very cute shop, with outdoor seating. $6 a scoop. read more

Very friendly, great service, nice ambiance with inside air conditioning or outdoor seating.

Best coffee I've found on the island. Strong, chocolaty - it's what I expect when I think of Kona coffee, but can still be hard to find.

The ice cream flavors were unique and delicious. I had the "Lava Java" ice cream that had Kona coffee, chocolate chips and other ingredients that were amazing enough that I came back the next day to eat it again. It was SO good. Other family members had ice cream they really enjoyed that was refreshing and delicious! Coconut and mango cream ice cream was highly recommended and perfect for a hot Hawaii day treat. The staff are friendly and accommodating and are eager to answer questions and make recommendations. Highly recommended just for the ice cream alone! read more

Got an acai bowl which was $18 for what I thought would be a bigger bowl than it was, along with the tip option. The service was not good, and honestly I would skip this place if you're looking for an acai bowl. If you're looking for another option that is a bit cheaper and better quality I would recommend Kona Wave Cafe a few minutes walk up the road. read more

Great Acai bowl place that's open when most others are closed for the day. We found this because of that. The bowl I had was loaded with fruit and granola. They also have ice cream that's delicious. The Kona coffee brownie was really good. The server tonight 12/31/25 was great. Highly recommend trying it. read more

Delicious cold brew and such a good vibe. Thanks to Gabby for talking about coffee and the beans they use. Hoping to find a way to ship the beans to us in CA! Thanks again for our daily cold brews when we visited in September read more

We went here for Acai bowls while walking Ali'i drive. I would def have to say not the best spot for Acai- maybe coffee but not Acai. The Acai seemed like it was pre frozen into the bowls, it had freezer burn on it- or so it seemed. The toppings were good-pineapple, strawberry, banana which were fresh but the blueberries and papaya were soggy and mushy. There was also some pretty cinnamon heavy granola which didn't go well with the Acai. Very cool and comfortable space to hang inside and they had many cute little Kona memorabilia to buy. The service was okay... read more
