Locals and non-locals seem to agree that Island Vintage Coffee's beverages are like imbibing a bit of the ocean view - perfect, warm, a little on the sweet side of life.

Local done well, just don't expect Starbucks efficiency or a window of plastic bag pastries. Fie to that though!

We will not be back for the coffee. This was comparable to starbucks and I would rather go to starbucks (and I don't like starbucks). Parking was difficult.

I do have a nut allergy, and sometimes the staff doesn't write the milk choice on the cup, which makes me a bit uneasy. That said, I'll be more verbal about it next time to make sure it's clear. One thing I didn't love was that the ice was stored in what looked like a typical camping cooler. I'm a little skeptical about how well those get cleaned, although it's possible their ice machine was just down that day. Overall, the view is amazing, the coffee is fine, and the food is quite pricey. There are a few menu items I'd splurge on, but with an ABC Store close by offering very similar options, I'd probably be selective about what I order.

That Malasada pancake is so ono! ​Because balance is key to survival, we always flank the sweet pancakes with an army of savory options - specifically the chicken fried steak, smoked meat, or a Benedict. Guarantee it's a flawless strategy that guarantees you will not need to look at food again until dinner time. ​ I panicked a little when management changed earlier this year but the transition was seamless. They added new goodies but kept the classics exactly the same. ​ Everyone here is fantastic, but Krystal is the undisputed MVP. She keeps the coffee flowing and manages to navigate our table even when we are deep in a pancake-induced trance. Go here immediately, just plan to nap right after.

It does come as a single link, but it's perfectly portioned for an average breakfast and leaves you feeling full and satisfied without being overly heavy. My husband ordered the country fried chicken and really enjoyed it. The portion size on his plate was especially generous. Of course, we had to try the pancake flight--it was delicious and just the right amount. I love having a variety without feeling overwhelmed. One small note: I ordered a regular drip coffee and found the price a bit steep $5, especially since it only includes one refill--so definitely be sure to ask for it to get your money's worth. Overall, this is a spot we'll absolutely keep coming back to!

Great price for good quality coffee. The bakery section looked amazing with tons of options, but we didn't get to try any this time.

Highlights: - Customizable drink sweetness - Good value and quality - Lots of baked goods to choose from - Easy parking and convenient spot Looking forward to trying more next time!

Plenty of parking that shares wi th the Chinese restaurant next door and a dental office. The building itself shares a space with. Nail salon which I always thought interesting. There's a few seats inside and as of this year they sell a few Knick knack things and have books for kids as well as board games. This visit was rather strange though we walked in and no one was at the counter. No bell to ring. We said hello a few times and we were ready to walk out. But one of the ladies from the nail salon was sitting at the table in the corner and we asked if they were open. She alerted someone in the nail salon and she came out promptly. This time around we ordered the mango sticky rice and D2 had the lava flow. I was curious about the mango sticky rice, bc it's blowing up all over the place here at various other places so I had to give it a try. I thought it was something new. Turns out it's just like mango sago that I get on the mainland. It was good though and very satisfying. Blended fresh mango, coconut milk, and mini sago pearls. D2 wasn't sure how she felt about her lava flow though. She asked what a lava flow is supposed to be and I told her coconut and strawberry. When I saw her drink it was more yellow and possibly pineapple?! She said it definitely tasted like pineapple more-so than coconut. Oh well maybe their interpretation is different. She drank it anyway and said at least she's tried it. We've been so many times I've lost count. They have a rewards system by just typing in your phone number. We've tried so many things like li hing lemonade, passion fruit slushes, coffees with egg pudding. And everything is good.

Embracing what I love is tea and I've been fortunate to have traveled and know the various types of teas and enjoy it as it's purest ways which brings me to Teapresso Bar and this Kapolei location since I'm in the area is unique as it shares its space with nail/lash salon but is very separated and is nice that there lots of parking for a quick sip. One thing about here is you're able to customize your drink and it was the Hojicha no milk no topping and light 25% sweetness and that's it and this yummy and refreshing drink is perfect on this hot Sunday morning. The staff is okay but I do love the little trinkets and snacks they have to capture you but luckily my drink was made fast so that I had no time to browse but was sad that the heat sealer was between the graphic images so I had none to smile about as these little gesture do make a difference and hope it gets adjusted as it is part of the whole vibe. Thank you!

First, this spot is located on the corner of Ho'omohala and Nana Hope street near the Ho'opili community. Btw, this area blew up! Such a family friendly and cute neighborhood! Second, there is no designated parking for this coffee shop so you will have to find somewhere on the street to park. Beware, there are nparking signs across the street that indicate "No parking " so be sure to pay attention to signs. They tow! Third, the service was slow because there are only two baristas who worked as efficiently as they could so I wouldn't come here if you're in a rush to go somewhere. I ordered a large, French toast hot latte and their breakfast burrito that came with a small container of salsa. Everything was delish and believe that nothing went to waste after the calories I burned at the gym. Hehe. The French Toast latte brought back memories and felt like I was holding the season of Fall in a cup of:) Definitely recommend that you check it out if you're a coffee fan. Other seasonal beverages include the Audrey Hepburn, Royal Hawaiian Mocha and Thai latte. Spot the new stuffie?

I decided to use my completed Stamp Card on a Roasted Veggie Power Bowl... and also ordered an ice blended drink since a regular size was just $4. I asked for soy milk which was a 99 cents upcharge. I took my bowl to the pick-up end of the counter and waited... A matcha-looking drink appeared, so I grabbed it. As I was taking a photo, a man said that was his drink. Really? He arrived after me. Oh, well... I went back to the pick-up area and one of the gals started making my Cookies and Cream matcha ice blended... with whipped cream and crumbs on the top... with a domed cover! Ohhh... it looks fancier than that man's matcha drink... I guess I won't be ordering it again because the "Cookies", even though they're grounded up, are distracting to drink. I felt like I needed to chew them... haha! And the Roasted Veggie bowl was a bit spicy in a peppery way... Thanks for the free bowl!
