    Located in Liliha on the main road and opens at 8:00. Cute little cafe, with indoor and outdoor seating available. Really loved the interior and how there was a little rack of clothes for sale too. Great place to come with friends or a coffee hangout and have "conversations" lol :) The drinks were delicious. Wasn't too milky, so I was still able to taste the coffee. The service was great too! All in all would come again!

    Breakfast Date with my princess with good Broccoli Chowder and a Turkey Pesto Panini. It's chilly today so I needed my Golden Moon Milk hot.

    Cute little nook! I'm usually avoiding gluten for preference but today was my cheat day tasting their Turkey Pesto Panini and Broccoli Chowder. Friendly staff and service.

    Conversations Coffee has everything you could ask for from a cafe--free parking, WiFi and a restroom. Not only is this business welcoming, but their coffee is delicious too! The staff is very sweet and caring. They sell the cutest goodies. And, the coffee drinks are of high quality, fairly priced and yummy! Highly recommend supporting this local business! Tip: Ask for a stamp card!

    Long time I don't eat a great sandwich. It makes me wanna cry hahah if you like chicken and a lil spicy go for it!!

    What a cute little cafe! Came across this spot while looking for a cute coffee shop that's not a "mega brand" and this is exactly what I was looking for. It was quite busy so we sat outside but I do want to come back to enjoy the charming interior and the vibe. I would take this any day over any other big restaurants or big coffee shops.

    Love this cafe. It's located in Kalihi with a parking lot to the left of the cafe. They have a good vibe with their set up. Christian based. The coffee & tea choices are yummy. We tried the lavender ones. The snacks vary in types. We tried many and were all good. They have all types of knickknacks. They also have flowers!! Wendy is so creative. And the prices are very reasonable... And she puts her special touch into it. Service is friendly and efficient. They treat you like family.

    First things first. This will be the cutest coffee shop you will ever step in because they are Jesus based and they have scriptures around the shop. They also have fresh flowers and toys for children that they sell. They actually have a lot of stuff in their shop. The vibe is really on point because you really could just sit in there with your coffee in silence and all your problems will go away, no joke! lol The service is super good. They are friendly and really make you feel at home. I got their coco-joy and it was coconut syrup with coconut cold foam (I got whip cream instead though lol) and chocolate drizzle. I also added an extra shot but I wanted it a little stronger. For 4 shots I didn't really taste coffee taste but I did love how strong the coconut taste was! Can't wait to go back and try their other options of coffee and food!

    My drink was wonderful as well as my breakfast sandwich. Cute shop with parking (that id what makes it even better). They have lots of gifts including many of the popular blind boxes. Lots of christian vibes along with some MAGA gear for purchase so if that will turn you off then maybe it's not the place for you.

    I noticed this coffee shop in December and made a mental note to check it out if I was in the Liliha area, which I had the opportunity to visit last week. Conversations is a tiny, quaint coffee shop on the corner of Liliha, a cute space that holds a coffee bar and an area with indoor tables and outdoor tables with chairs to drink your coffee or tea, read (they have wifi) or carry conversations if you're having a date, study time or friends outing. The place has character and an artsy with a relaxing vibe. It is far from the minimalist aesthetics that some coffee shops go for these days, which I appreciate that these type of coffee shops like Conversations because they are bring back the aesthetics of relaxing and just enjoying the surroundings that will inspire your creativity as well as pacing yourself instead of rushing (if that makes any sense). Think of the vibe of how Starbucks used to be before incorporating minimalist decor (imo the concept is edgy now). As local, small coffee shops are bringing back the aesthetics of friendly, warm, and relaxing as you drink your mocha and eating a peanut butter and banana toast, I realize that I want coffee shops that look different from the mainstream coffee shop, and Conversations excelled in that department. Price: Reasonable Customer Service: Friendly and helpful Recommend: Highly

    Bagel sandwich, focaccia Sandwich, spicy tuna melt, raspberry white chocolate Matcha, Ube matcha, ume blended.

    This cafe is so cute and cozy! I went with a few of my friends today and I have nothing but good things to say! The interior is cozy and filled with fun trinkets and a cute aesthetic. We had a couple different matchas and everything was so good. I had a ume blender drink with a spicy tuna melt and it was so so good!! The only thing I would say tho that it's very expensive but in my opinion worth it!! My sandwich was about 17$ and drinks can run from 7-9$ but I think it was worth it. One last thing I want to add workers and café itself are very rooted in their faith!

    Adorable and unique Hello Kitty bouquet.

    Café alert! Stumbled upon Conversations Café Liliha (right off Liliha Street) and I'm obsessed already. They've got convenient parking (always a major win), and the café itself is such a cozy little spot. Alongside their drinks, they sell goodies like plush dolls, books, bags, and even have a sale rack full of super cute clothes at 50% off already discounted prices (tags still on ). ROXY brands to name one I personally found and purchased. I tried their brown sugar cinnamon latte, delishhh and the Mrs. Crabbitz Sandwich Deluxe loaded with bacon (thick not that paper thin type lol), lettuce, and unagi sauce. Everything was so tasty! Last but not least, my barista who took my order and made my sandwich was so approachable and easy to talk to. Had a nice first convo with only being there for a few minutes. always a huge plus with personable service. Already planning my next visit in a few days because one round just wasn't enough.

    Located in Liliha next to Creations By You. First time trying this Cute cafe since we previously met the owner Wendy. They have nice indoor & outdoor seating with seasonal decor & cute accessories for sale. Food: We ordered the Small Açaí Bowl, Breakfast Bagel with Turkey. Includes egg cheese & bacon. I removed the bacon. Drinks: I ordered a Large Oat Latte - Hot I saw that they have ChagaChinno, but I prefer No Caffeine so I requested a custom iced ChagaChai with Almond Milk. The girls were nice enough to make it. Thanks Kitty & Robin! I'm an Almond Chai Latte connoisseur - always trying different versions of it. :) Both drinks were Excellent!! Acai Bowl was really fresh and lovely presentation. Flavors were great!! I requested Breakfast Bagel with Turkey, no bacon. Good quality Bagel. All was delish! We enjoyed talking story and meeting the family. Def a must-try if you're in the Liliha area! Mahalo Wendy & staff! Many blessings!

I ordered at the register, and she made my drink immediately. I was intrigued by their Haupia Matcha Latte. I love all things Haupia, so it seemed like the perfect match.

With all the cafes in the area, it's worth a visit if you're a matcha lover like me. Find the cafe off Nuuanu Ave., unassuming on the outside but nicely sized once you go in!

The café itself is on the smaller side, but the menu has a great selection of drinks and food options. I ordered the Royal Ube Matcha Latte over ice, and it was delicious.

At one point, I genuinely thought a customer was a friend of one of the employees because their conversation felt so natural and welcoming, but they had actually just met.

The employee took it and immediately hung up on me--no name taken, no "thank you," no "goodbye." When I arrived, the parking was a mess, so I had to be dropped off. Inside, the food display looked sad, and the cashier looked completely miserable and unpresentable. While waiting patiently on the side for 15 minutes, I watched the kitchen staff preparing food. Red flag: they literally microwave their eggs instead of cooking them fresh. After 30 minutes of total waiting time, I finally went up to check on my order, only to find out the cashier hadn't even handed my ticket to the kitchen yet. She sent it back right in front of me without a single word of apology--just a blank stare. I cancelled my order on the spot. Horrible service, zero management, and low-quality food prep. Save your golden time & money and go somewhere else. Definitely not a place where I'd want my food prepared!

    I visited Panday at the Kailua mini swap meet. It was a small, kind of random event that…read moresurprisingly didn't have any other food or drink vendors. I felt kind of bad because it was a one person show and the owner guy had to accommodate a lot of customers by himself! It was a hot day and a cold drink sounded great. I heard someone mention there was a coffee vendor but the person made it sound like they were only selling cups of hot or iced coffee. Then someone walked by with a matcha drink and I knew I needed to check out Panday's booth. There was a small line of customers and the guy was working hard to chat with people, collect payments and make drinks. When it was my turn, I ordered the "Biko" coffee which is their special Filipino rice/coconut/condensed milk coffee. He said he probably didn't have enough and I should look over the menu to see if I had a second choice. I chose the banana matcha and he said he didn't have any banana syrup. I mean maybe the event was so popular that he ran out of drinks quicker than expected. I guess he was the only food/drink vendor at the event and it was a hot day.... In the end, he had enough Biko for my drink and everything was fine. It was a good latte and flavorful, but idk if I'd go out of my way to find it in the future. I do want to try the banana matcha still though. For a one man operation, this guys is killing it. He makes the espresso shots to order, so drinks may take a little while to get made. He was good at chatting up people in line while we waited though. Hopefully I'll see panday coffee at another event soon!

I really was intrigued by their Monkey Coffy but really wanted to try their Matcha when they said that I could combine it for "Monkey Matcha" whaaaaaaat!!!! Their only concern is that the banana syrup could overpower the matcha so they weren't confident to put it on the menu but I tell you it was yummy and yes the syrup was very flavorful as I was told it is made with real bananas and has the equivalent of two bananas in each cup...incredible. The staff is amazing and informed me of the wait with several orders already in the works but I do love the creativity as they bring in the culture crafted in each cup is unique and "sip"ly delicious.
