Not my cup of tea... My first visit I tried their matcha though I understand it's a coffee place and gosh how disappointed I was as I just hated it in fact threw it away after a few sips, I'm sure many may enjoy it but it wasn't for me and waited to do my review until I had a cup of their coffee. Here I am and still decided to try something different you know expand my horizon outside of my matcha and got their Apple Sparkling Cold Brew and order using their kiosk as the single staff greeted me as soon as I entered but seem to stay away from the counter while she did her cleaning/stocking duties. What I did like about using the kiosk there were prompt to the level of sweetness and ice so I wouldn't forget to suggest my preference and it gave me a moment to decide as well. As for the drink it was strange but did love their cold brew and the sparkles from the apples but would I order it again...nope! I do love the vibe here it's very nice and clean with lots of cozy tables meant to relax and enjoy your sip though I decided to complete my review here and sat the counter top is a nice corner seating with a single outlet at the end for charging is cool which is unfortunate that it seems like it's the only outlet. Love this new addition in Kaka'ako giving you various options to relax regardless anytime of the day. Thank you! read more

I was excited for a new coffee shop option in the area but it gives boba shop vibes more than a coffee shop. My husband ordered a latte and he ordered me a matcha latte. I threw up after few sips but didn't associate it at the time with the matcha because I was also eating lunch - I thought it was from the food. I got matcha again today and quickly realized the drink taste exactly like Quickly's which has artificial powdered base drinks. I threw it away after few sips again. Even my son who loves sweets didn't finish his choco frappe . read more

I tried COTTI Coffee today since it's next to a park we frequent but it was disappointing. It was really hot inside and didn't feel like there was any AC. The service was low energy and not very welcoming. I got a mocha frappe, and it tasted like watered-down coffee ice and was presented messily. Overall not a great experience. Not coming back. read more

Very smooth and flavorful coffee. I went to the grand opening of Cotti Coffee in Kaka'ako on March 27, 2026. It's located on 1st floor of Koula Condo in Ward Village, next door to the Nori Bar. Nice decor and a bit chaotic during the grand opening. Certain things were not available yet, such as the Cotti Coffee App. When I first approached the counter, I asked what would they recommend and I was pleasantly impressed by the questions she asked me first to find out my preferences. I was slightly cold due to the windy weather that morning, so I opted for a hot coffee. Toffee hazelnut, 25% sweet with whole milk. It was perfect. Not too sweet, not too hot, and just right! Smooth coffee. I liked it very much. Reasonably priced at $6.80, includes tax. I picked up a free sticker set and a plushie during the grand opening. I was too late for the BOGO. Overall, 5/5 star rating here. I will be back to try more of Cotti Coffee. Welcome to Hawai'i! Inquiring minds want to know: Cotti Coffee sources its 100% Arabica coffee beans from renowned global coffee-producing regions, including Ethiopia, Colombia, Brazil, Guatemala, and China (specifically Yunnan). The brand, founded in China in 2022, also recently finalized a partnership to source coffee beans from Uganda. read more

Refreshing beverage in Honolulu, Hawaii... I saw on Instagram that Cotti Coffee opened a second location at Ward Village and wanted to try it. I've been to the first location at Pearl Highlands in the Food Court... it was okay. I even installed the app, but it sadly doesn't work at this Kaka'ako shop. I parked for free in the Whole Foods parking structure and walked over. Service was efficient and helpful. I stated that I preferred a non-dairy beverage and aimed for a fruit tea. I saw a photo of the Mango Pomelo Delight and ordered it. It was good - with little bits of fresh pomelo! I was the only customer in the afternoon. It was calm, clean, and modern. I sat for a while on one of the stools, near an outlet. If I had my cable, I'd plug my phone in... LOL! read more

Checked out Cotti for their grand opening and tried a handful of drinks. Honestly, a nice surprise that prices weren't outrageous--most drinks were around $5-$7 depending on what you get. My least favorites were the matcha (a bit too powdery for my taste) and the lemon-flavored coffee, which just didn't hit right for me. On the plus side, I really enjoyed the grapefruit americano and the stardust oolong milk tea--both I'd definitely recommend. Overall, it's a great location with lots of options to choose from, but nothing really wowed me. read more

Their mousse matcha latte and mousse Opera latte taste so good with 50% sugar level. I like that you can customize the sugar level, the 50% sugar level was enough sweetness for me. One size drink makes it so much easier and faster to order and get your drinks. The price is half of Starbucks coffee, we ordered our drinks hot, and it was the perfect temperature where the top layer mousse was cold and the bottom was warm, and the mixture of the layers makes perfect to drink. It was so satisfying. I am pleasantly surprise at how tasty the drinks are. The workers are nice. I will be back to try more of this delicious drinks read more

Another addition to Ward Village. As a resident in the neighborhood, definitely a welcomed addition. Nice spot to hang out, remote work, etc. Fairly good selection of drinks. Not cheap but it's Hawaii and Ward Village. Comparable pricing to Happy Lemon next door. read more

New coffeeshop in Ward which is exciting! Appreciate their 7am-7pmish hours. They're very new so still no online ordering yet, but the staff were so nice and the space is very relaxing. Got a variety of the Sparkling and flat cold brew drinks with orange, lemon honey, and grapefruit. Loved mine but they might have accidentally mixed up our sweetness levels cuz mine definitely didn't taste unsweetened, but it was still delicious. Everything is about $6.50 which is a very reasonable surprise for this area. Excited to try their boba, tea drinks and lattes next time! read more

I recently tried Cotti coffee. I thought it was ok, but it could have been a drink selection problem although my sister didn't love hers either. I got the pandan coconut latte, i love coconut but it made it difficult to taste the subtleness of the pandan. As I kept drinking, it mostly tasted like coconut milk so I didn't finish it. My sister got the caramel oat milk latte. We got a small table outside which was nice, I found the inside a little dark and didn't love that there isn't a bathroom in the shop and you have to walk around the corner. That being said the barista was sweet and got the drink ready quickly. I will go back to try some more of the drinks and update my review. read more

This is a really cool shop. Located at Ward Villages next to Dean & Deluca this is their grand opening weekend 03/27/26 to 03/29/26. Free coffee, BOGO and free merch with a $20 purchase are all available this weekend. Drinks are a little under $7 and they have a lot to choose from. The workers are really efficient as they had quite a line to get through. I was 48th in line so I got a free drink but it took them 1 hr to get through the 47 people ahead of me so keep that in mind, it's gonna be a very busy weekend for them. I had a Cloud Mousse Blue Coco Latte but it wasn't really to my liking. Creamier than I was expecting. I think next time I'll get something closer to just coffee. Will definitely return soon! read more

I stopped by here yesterday afternoon for my daily coffee. While traveling we try to hit up a new local coffee shop every day and on this afternoon it happened to be Cotti Coffee. Even though I had found the store on Yelp and put it into Google Maps, it was still hard to find. To make matters more confusing, it was on a dead end street due to construction. Whenever I arrived there was a group of six ordering and I am pretty sure an employee was being trained as well. There was a decent amount of seating in the shop along with a large board showing a wide variety of drinks. After looking over the menu for a bit I decided to go with a pandan coco latte. It took about 10 minutes from ordering until I had my drink and was on my way. Once I got to my car I gave it a try. It was definitely an interesting coffee. The pandan had a slightly bitter and somewhat citrusy flavor which the milk tried to smooth out. The coconut was subtle but still noticeable. The coffee itself played more of a background role behind those flavors. Even so, I still enjoyed it and finished it pretty quickly. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. I enjoyed my drink overall and would be interested in trying more of their flavors. read more

Tried the Mango Coco Latte at Cotti Coffee. It was okay--pretty sweet with a noticeable mango and coconut flavor, but nothing that really stood out. Good if you're in the mood for something different, but I probably wouldn't order it again. read more

With six coffee spots close by, I thought this place better be more than good. After giving it a try a few days after its grand opening, I don't think Cotti Coffee can survive. The menu gives boba tea vibes and it might as well rebrand itself as such instead of coffee. I tried a simple iced latte with oat milk. They used so much oat milk, I could not taste the espresso. I also got the milk tea with stardust (it's brown sugar boba) and it was also mostly milk. If I want cups of oat milk and whole milk, I would just go down the street to Whole Foods. read more

@fortunefoodfinds: "Live a little, L.O.V.E. a LATTE! Checked out the newest @ Cotti Coffee Hawai'i location at Ward Village where they'll be having their grand opening starting tomorrow. Tried out the Cloud Mousse Matcha Latte while da hubz had the Sea Salt Caramel Latte n' Chocolate Milk for the kids. A wide variety of drinks that are strong n' bold, you can get a majority of them either hot or cold!" SERVICE: fully staffed INTERIOR: clean, very spacious, some seating available EXTERIOR: located at Ward Village near Happy Lemon n' Dean & Deluca WAIT TIME: after placing order on the kiosk received our drinks within 5 mins PARKING: free garage around the corner OVERALL COMMENTS: price of 16oz drinks were great in this neighborhood n' for HI in general. The matcha was true to its flavor, earthy n' bold. Not the sweet kine creamy matcha that I've recently been getting so it was a nice remembrance of the matcha drinks I used to get years ago. The cloud mousse on top was intense (in a good coffee way) so be sure to mix. I took a sip of mah hubz sea salt caramel latte that was strong in espresso flavor with hints of the sea salt caramel. My kids enjoyed the chocolate milk; anything with chocolate they like. If you're indecisive, the drink menu can be overwhelming. Just know that if you come back, you can try out more, which I plan to do! read more

I asked for the sweetest thing on the menu, and the staff just kind of stared at me like they didn't know what to suggest. Ended up with a frappe that was basically all ice, definitely not worth $7. read more
