Service is usually good. New girl training today doesn't look like she'll be there for long. First all she got my order wrong. Second of all I ordered a Frappuccino and it was the worst one I ever had. McDonalds does better. It didn't even come with whip cream. For 8.12 that isn't worth it. Save your money and go to McDonald's. read more

Nice spot between Hilo and Kona, i had the thai iced tea, perfect blend. So good i went back for more.

Hands down, THE BEST way to start one's day. Amazing EVERYTHING. Food, coffee beverages (there are A LOT), service and warm charm. We are honored and blessed that such an establishment exists to welcome new friends and treat everyone as one of their own. read more

I ordered a breakfast burrito here waited 30 minutes just to find out they didn't even put my order in. Then when I asked about it the owner was so rude like I annoyed her for asking. Finally I got my burrito and it hurt my stomach so it wasn't even worth it . I do not recommend. read more

This is a great place to pit stop on the way to the volcano, Hilo, or Black Sand Beach. Workers are super chill and the service is excellent. We had the breakfast burritos and the were big and tasty. Give these guys a shot and fuel up yourself and your car while you're at it. read more

Coming from Oahu, the big island is definitely country. We found this little gem on my Yelp App, and from the outside you would never tell that this cute cafe offers a bomb breakfast. Next to a tiny little post office in a small strip mall, you'll miss it if you blink. Walking in, we noticed that everyone knew everyone. All of the regulars shook hands and talked, caught up on whats new. How cute! Our breakfast burrito was simple. It came with potatoes, cheese, and egg, and option to add meat, avo, salsa, or sour cream for an additional charge. This burrito was humongous, and despite its few ingredients, it had great flavor. I'm pretty sure my boyfriend and I could have shared, but our eyes are always bigger than our stomach, and we both were unable to finish. The waffle had a hint of cinnamon, which my son and BF LOVED. Their brewed coffee was delicious as well. I wish I would have ordered the iced coffee to go, knowing now that they use coffee ice cubes. Genius! read more

Great for coffee, pastries and breakfast.

Fantastic clearly fresh made breakfast! Best cup of coffee I've had on the island- my ice cubes were made of coffee! We ordered 6 items of menu and all were delicious. Will be back. read more

Wonderful find! Everything was fresh delicious. The atmosphere is friendly and a great community of people!

Love their food! I got their oven baked skillet with avocado. Very filling big portions. One of the best breakfasts I've had at a coffee shop. We got there house coffee and it was was tasty. Not the best Kona coffee but still tasty! read more

After a long night stopped in and had a healthy start with the Oatmeal and Açaí Bowl! Really good coffee too!

Had a quick stop here. I ordered an iced coffee and tomato pesto sandwich!!! Amazing! The coffee was tasty, medium, and I had the option of choosing between regular ice cubes or coffee ice cubes! I choose coffee ice cubes, which made the coffee more tasty! Basically just frozen coffee cubes. Then the tomato pesto sandwich with sriracha sauce was fresh, and just delicious! Highly recommend! read more

Definitely the best business in ocean view. Great service, excellent employees, very good food/coffee 6 stars

Great lunch with a bacon turkey avocado sandwich with spicy mayo and an iced mocha with oat milk. Great way to refuel after state park.

Cute place next to a grocery store and a gas station. Recommend checking it out on the way to Vulcano or South Point. Huge menu list with variety of options. The veggie wrap was great and the humus tasted so good. The coffee drinks seem on the higher end -$8 for 20oz espresso drink. The food was priced reasonable and came with a bag of chips. Will definitely make it a regular stop when in the area. Banana chips is only $5 and the perfect snack. Make sure to grab some for the road. read more

Ummm... what can I say about this place? We stopped here because it really was the only thing open, but were pretty disappointed. I ordered avocado toast. They had no avocados. I asked if they had a fresh fruit bowl. No. I ordered the bagel with cream cheese and lox. No lox. I asked what fruits were in the smoothies. Frozen Costco fruit. What the??? Oh, and I ordered a chi latte (a pre mix also from Costco), and made it at half strength. They were nice about adding more though. read more

Found this cute little breakfast while vacationing with the family. We walked in (all 7 of us) and the place was packed. The employees were super friendly and did everything possible to accommodate our larger group. They pushed tables together and brought in chairs. My picky eaters (2 kiddos) ate well here with a side of bacon and egg a piece. The staff even brought out chalk for them to play with while we finished eating. Decent prices and kind, attentive staff always score points with me! read more

Absolutely the best burger Ive tasted in years! Huge portions! Even the half portion of biscuits and gravy is more than enough! Excellent food and excellent customer service! read more

Such a joy to find this cute cafe & coffee shop. I loved it so much I have had a number of meals here already. The breakfast scramble with avocado is delicious and hearty. The vegan veggie burger made with taro is out of this world delicious. Something for ALL tastes on the menu and fresh organic smoothies! Indoor & outdoor seating with a very down to Earth vibe. The entire staff will make you feel welcome. Lots of Aloha! read more

The breakfast burrito is on point and pesto is super fresh and tasteful! You can't go wrong with the smoothies either super tasteful!

My mom was visiting from California and she saw this cute little place and insisted on stopping. So glad we did. Small, colorful, pleasant stop for breakfast. Super nice girls working. Bright, freshly made breakfast burritos. BLT. Excellent kau coffee. Food took a while... But wasn't in any hurry. Looked small on the plate... At first. Then u eat it.... And its perfectly portioned. Filled me up. Wud definitely stop again read more

Great sandwich and great coffee! It was the perfect stop before heading to south point

Good food, good portions and decent prices. No restrooms for customers, only portapotties in the parking lot. No place to wash hands before eating. read more

Best breakfast burritos on the island. Amazing food. Slower service but worth the wait.

What a great spot to grab breakfast! Delicious breakfast sandwich- BLT and egg... yumm! It was perfect to pickup, gas up our car and travel to volcanoes national park while we ate our yummy sandwiches. Recommend this stop! read more

This cute place is about 20 minutes from my vacation spot, but took time to get a latte there before it closed at 3 pm. The parking lot is horrendous on the weekend, but during the week it is fine. The place has a good choice of food as well as drink. Worth the price. They even make ice cubes out of coffee left from the day! Wooohoo. read more

One of the few places to stop on the way to black sand beach and it was a good choice. The yogurt and granola with honey was good and the BLT and bagels were enjoyed by my family. It's a cute little cafe with truly nice people, so if you are in need of coffee or a quick bite give this little place a try. read more

This place is great - everything super fresh ingredients. We had smoothies and making turkey bacon avocado sandwich, and a lox bagel. Great coffee also. Ocean View is small but this place is a gem. read more

Amazing food, Ben surprised by things don't sound good but always the best food. Coffee is Kona coffee, not my preferred type but ok. Prices a bit high but it is Hawaii lol. read more

Great little find in Oceanview. This place has local welcoming feel to it with a friendly staff. I had the scramble with Avocado added which was loaded with fresh veggies. Very tasty. If you're passing through Oceanview stop in you won't be disappointed. read more

Will never forget this charming little sandwich n smoothie shop! My recent trip to Kona, the boyfriend took me on the outskirts and had me try a sandwich at Coffee Grinds. Then we had another one, and another one the next day, and then the next day. Family owned and the three people we interacted with over the course of a week were just as pleasant as could be. Kenny has the Hawaiian low-key + friendly personality and Jenny was sweet as pie! Sandwiches were made to order, very fresh, and enough to split between me and my boyfriend. Must take note: their CHILI soup IS THE BEST!! A perfect kick to it. read more

It was the only thing open for us on Thanksgiving and Black Friday in the area but it was really good. They had the best breakfast burrito.

If you're in the ocean view area, stop here for a good cup of coffee and good food. Vegan options too.

The place looks pretty dodgy from the outside but the coffee is quite good (this is what matters). You self serve the coffee from large thermoses, which made me a bit skeptical, but the coffee was not disappointing. I often find that Kona coffee, when not of particularly good quality, becomes undrinkable when it cools. This is not the case with Coffee Grinds' coffee. We stopped in here a couple of years ago too and thought they did a pretty good job despite sad surroundings (grocery store strip mall type of place). Definitely worth a stop for the coffee. read more

Fantastic food. Had the breakfast scone with avocado and don't know that I have ever had a more delicious scone ever. Husband loved the biscuits and gravy and the peanut butter cookies were to die for. My new Saturday morning hang out read more

This place closes at noon on sundays. It is not open until 1 pm on Sunday as stated. No chance to find out about how the smoothies are which is why we tried to arrive before the stated 1pm closing time. I think it would be helpful if the business would update their hours. It's very bothersome to anticipate a purchasing event and then find out that the vendor is not honoring previously listed hours. read more

Great staff, great coffee, great food. Always a plus for me when they have vegan options.

I come here every weekend (Saturday AND sunday) And get ny usual 4 shot espresso with coffee ice cubes and dark chocolate I LOVE that they use local ka'u coffee! The FOOD THERE THO!!! ONO! Literally EVERYTHING is soooooo good but our personal faves are the loaded breakfast burrito and the cream cheese with bacon croissant with siracha mayo BEST place on the south side!!! You wont be dissapointed read more
