    Came here with a friend to catch up and not only is the staff beyond friendly and helpful, the drinks and food were delicious! I ordered a decaf iced "shaken espresso" style coffee with a breakfast sandwich. Did not disappoint. I took pics of the pastries and plan to revisit to try one of those soon! Great spot to relax, soak in the view, do a little work ,or to just sit there and do nothing! The vibe was perfect!

    This morning we took a really big walk and decided to stop at the 4 SEASONS coffeehouse for some morning, coffee and pastries. I got an iced shaken espresso with oat milk and two pumps of vanilla, sugar-free syrup, my mom got a iced Americano with sugar-free syrup, the coffee was very creamy and had a really good strong flavor and then we sat and looked out onto the bay. My mom also got a slice of warm banana bread. The total for my receipt was only $26 including tip. The 4 SEASONS is a private resort however you can get to the restaurant and the bars in the coffee area from the Koolina Bay that they share with Disney's Aulani.

    Love this cafe! I come here all the time from Kapolei to study and I absolutely love it. The view never disappoints and the baristas are all super nice. I highly recommend their vanilla mac nut latte and any of their hot breakfasts! Parking is valet only (unless you wanna walk from the lagoon parking), but they do offer validation for up to 3 hours with a $50 purchase.

    Food and pastries are very tasty. Easy to grab a bite to eat. Share a snack with a friend. Service is quick and sweet. Always sweet. Music is always a vibe. Always clean and with a nice view. Fresh air and cozy.

    My favorite spot to grab lunch in Ko Olina. This cafe within the Four Seasons at Ko Olina has the best food. Whether it is a spam musabi, truffle egg salad sandwich, or a healthy Buddha bowl, you can order whatever you are craving and it's all guaranteed to be delicious, fresh and healthy. Their coffee is also fantastic, and the service is of course amazing. To top it all off, the views off this cafe are incredible. They have a great selection of beverages and packaged snacks, as well if you want to take your food as a picnic to the beach! I have been here many times and I love it.

    Absolutely stunning place to come for some quiet time, reading, studying, or journaling. The cafe corner is very cute and also right next to the outdoor patio that outlooks the lagoon and ocean. BEAUTIFUL! There's complimentary wifi and a "faster, safer" wifi you can upgrade to with a little payment. I comfortably had a zoom call and had little to no issues at all. The resort staff also lets you maintain your privacy without bothering you or asking unnecessary questions. This is, by far, one of my most favorite places to spend my time working or studying. The coffee is good, but you are also paying a premium just because it's in the Four Seasons.

    I had very high hopes walking in because it looks fantastic and has a great view. Good food menu, prompt service and amazing view. I ordered a cappuccino that was definitely not up to par. It was the same boiling-hot, weird tasting "coffee" like they serve at the ABC store across the road. Food was good but if they just spent a couple hours training their barista how to actually make a coffee, it would be 5 stars. Surely in 2023 at a world leading resort that would be so easy to do. Others in our party who got a drip coffee thought the drip coffee was fine. I would love to see them have ceramic cups too because that would considerably reduce wastage and make it a tastier coffee. Overall: Espresso coffee (eg cappuccino) 1/5. Food: 4/5. Nice selection of croissants etc too.

I told the cashier I wanted to substitute but she recommended I just do the eggs and potatoes a la carte as it's cheaper and I don't have to buy food I can't eat. You order at the cashier and then sit outside and wait for your food. Since it's outdoor seating there are dozens of wild birds on the tables looking to get some crumbs. There are signs that say not to feed them but plenty of people do and as a result, they never leave. After a few minutes I received a huge portion of potatoes and eggs. The potatoes were seasoned well and tasted freshly made. It definitely wasn't frozen but chopped and fried locally. The eggs were okay, nothing to write home about but with the right amount of salt, pepper, and hot sauce I found them pretty good. I ended up not finishing the eggs because of how large the portions were. I ended up getting a chocolate croissant to go which was delicious. I would have eaten them all week if they weren't $8.

We came at 7am which was so nice because it wasn't crowded. We got some extra time with Mickey Mouse in the beginning and since it wasn't crowded, the characters visited our table 2-3 times. The food was great too! We loved the donuts, omelets, lox and bagels, and gluten free minnie mouse waffles! They were SO kind in having gluten free options (gluten free waffles, fruit, gluten free muffins). The gluten free food was delicious. We all loved our food and we really had a great time! Beautiful view and environment too! Dinner- This was absolutely the best dinner we had during our trip. It's a 3 course meal and you get to choose off of the menu. I got the corn chowder, prime rib, and pineapple dessert. My date got the tomato soup, seared ahi, and pineapple dessert. All of the food was amazingggg! We also LOVED our drinks we ordered. We ordered an old fashioned and then our sweet server had the bar whip me up a custom drink! Both were so good! For both meals, the service was amaaaazing! They are so kind and go over and beyond to make sure you have a great experience. They constituently checked in with us, gave us great recommendations, and got us everything we needed. I wish I remembered the name of our waiter at dinner, he was absolutely amazing! *Dinner does not include characters* I would give our experience for both breakfast and dinner a 100/10!

The service is outstanding and we are so happy and blessed to be here! We were able to greet Mickey & Minnie, Goofy and Stitch at breakfast! We enjoyed macadamia nut pancakes with sweet syrup sauce; Mickey waffles and bacon; a farmer's omelet and potatoes - we had huge portions and the price for 4 (2 kids and 2 adults) was really good for all the food, the live music and the character visits over and over to our table! I also note that we didn't not attend the Luau this trip - which costs $200-$300+ per person (at Aulani). We opted to skip because we've been before and figured we would wait some before taking the kids - a little bit older for the best age to really fully enjoy that aspect of the show. You can get all the pictures with your personal camera/phone/device but know that the character breakfast photos by the photo folks with Mickey are not included - they will offer a $45 photo package to include and featured photo in the cardboard decorated photo frame and a photo pass card representing all the photos taken with Mickey as a family and as individuals at the featured photo session with Mickey during the (breakfast) character meal experience. We made our appointment for the first of the day and joined breakfast at 7am. We were first in line and first for the day - we enjoyed that personally because it was a great time with no crowds and we were able to start the day early and get on to having (more) fun! Alo(w)ha(h) (we're from Arkansas)!
