Made strong, flavorful Colombian brew, dark in the pot, they didn't skimp on ground beans in the filter!! I saw fried chicken offered, though I didn't have time to try it. Will have to return so I can, next time I'm in the neighborhood. The store & lot were kept clean so I felt confident in purchasing there. The coffee was well worth the price and like I said, very tasty.

Zane recently helped us by transferring a number of firearms from a Big Island resident to me on…read morethe mainland. Neither the person there nor I had every met or dealt with him before. There were a couple complications involved and he was slightly reluctant at first, but after evaluating all the ramifications volunteered to do the transfer and shipping. He explained clearly to us all that was involved and, considering his many years of doing business there and obviously thorough knowledge and experience in handling the legalities involved, we went ahead with the transfer. Once the Hawaii State paperwork was very professionally taken care of (a long, drawn out process in our situation), the firearms were very well packaged and shipped. They arrived 2 days prior to his estimate and everything arrived in great shape. I almost wish (almost!) I lived over there so I could do business with him on a regular basis. Thanks for everything, Zane!

We rode in the parking lot and we're SOLD a big smile as we rode beach to EJ who took excellent care of us. Mahalo to such a nice team! Always on it if you have a need or question.

I rented a couple e-bikes through Big Island Personal tours for a 3 hour (half day) excursion for…read moremy hubby's birthday. The owners were so accommodating and kind and allowed me to choose exactly the day and time that I wanted even though it wasn't their usual day for rentals. Everything was so easy and smooth for check-in and check-out. They provided helmets and there is a spot to strap down your things though I recommend wearing a backpack. We were also given locks so that we could lock up our bikes for stops. We went about 30 miles in total with a long lunch break in between. We rode all the way up to rainbow falls and Chong's pond and across Hilo and through wailoa park and some of Keaukaha. We had a blast!! The bikes felt super steady and safe because the assist is very smooth and the tires are thick. We were able to bike with the throttle all the way up kaumana drive and it was easy, I barely had to pedal. By the end of our time I still had 80% charge on my battery and I was using the throttle the whole time! I definitely recommend renting e bikes through this company. The whole experience was perfect and It was a super fun way of exploring Hilo.

We got an email from these guys ONE MINUTE AFTER POSTING HERE THAT THEY DON'T EXIST and that they'd…read moreSTILL TAKEN OUR PAYMENT that we'd somehow "fallen through the cracks" and were getting refunded. This was AFTER their site advertised they were open, AFTER their site accepted our payment, AFTER we got a pre-trip confirmation email that we were good to go, AFTER we *wasted a tank of gas driving 4.5 hours round trip from Kona on our last day in Hawaii*, and AFTER a next-day "thanks for riding with us" email from them. So ... they only realized we'd "slipped through the cracks" and refunded us when they somehow learned they'd been rumbled here on Yelp. Not pretty stuff. I'd give them the benefit of the doubt, but I'm now sure how we can or what explanation could possibly point toward mere negligence.

The electric bikes from Hawaii Lava Bikes are by far the best way to see the active lava flows…read more Even though it's only a ~4 mile ride out to the lava, after you hike 4-5 miles over rough terrain to see the lava (3-4 hours of hiking on tough terrain!), you will be SO HAPPY that you have an electric bike to get your tired legs back to your car. We flew past so many people on regular bikes who looked at us with jealous and envy as we used minimal effort and got there much faster. The guys who run the company are also INCREDIBLY nice and down to earth. Bikes are in excellent condition, and they give you backpacks, headlamps, and water. Would 100% use this company again.

Our 4:30am lava hike was one of the highlights of our trip to the Big Island. We met up at their…read moreoffice close to the Kalapana Gardens at 4am, checked in, signed some papers and got snacks and coffee (included in the tour). It is recommended that you wear long pants (but some did it in shorts) and requires that you have shoes that cover your toes (no water shoes or sandals). I did it in work out legging and sneakers and my boyfriend did it in jeans and hiking boots. We were both fine and neither of our shoes melted though at one point, his feet got really hot bc I made him stand by the lava for so long for a picture. Bring a good amount of water or your camelback and a hoodie bc it was cold in the morning. They provide you with good headlamps and flashlights since you are hiking in the dark. We were in a group of 12 or so and we loaded up in their nice van and drove out to start our hike. They take you as far as you can go on the road (where people would be otherwise renting bikes or walking) so it saves you some walking. From there, it's just up the lava you go. It was nice that the tour guide told us to take a look at the lava rocks and the texture which was glass like. Basically a warning to tell you don't slip and fall bc this stuff might hurt you. As we walked, it sounded like glass shards breaking under us and we walked towards orange glows up the mountain. Eventually we made it while it was still dark and it was crazy you could feel the heat as you got close to the lava. We spent an hour or so taking pictures of and with the lava and relocating to a few other areas with lava as it eventually got light. We hiked back down the same way and ended around 8:30am. Highly recommend this company as they do a good job making everyone feel safe and we completed the hike at a nice pace. They do not allow kids under 12 and it's probably not recommended for anyone over 50. There are parts where you might have to hop down or take a big step up or down and keep your balance. Our group did a good job and most were in their 20's and 30's and maybe one brave solo hiker in her 40's. Super worth it to wake up early and experience this in Hawaii!

The best thing I've done in Hawaii! We went out on their second day with the new (bigger) boat,…read morewhich provides a pretty smooth ride. We did the sunrise tour, which I would highly recommend. You get to the flow while it's still dark and can watch the sunrise out of the ocean which is another awesome aspect. Parts of the flow were breaking away while we were out there causing new patterns of flowing lava, it's just ever changing the entire time you're watching. A bonus was while on the way back, we came upon a pod of bottle nose dolphins and they swam along with us for awhile. No sooner we left those to continue to the dock, we came up on a pod of spinner dolphins. We absolutely recommend this and it is worth every single penny. Looking forward to doing this again next time we're on the island
