I honestly can't stop thinking about their coffee! I need to get my own espresso machine. My go-to drink I got 3 days in a row while I was back home was the Iced Breve - espresso with cream, with no sweetener & no added flavor. It was perfect for me. I wish I got the large every day I was there. Because I was busy with things throughout the day. It kept me alert & awake with no crash (which most coffee does to me :( ) - but the breve from here didn't. For those watching their sugar intake, or wanting a keto-friendly drink with a good balance of espresso coffee & cream fat, I highly recommend this. All the other coffee shops I went to while on Oahu, I couldn't find breve on the menu. I first tried this place a while back in 2017, my cousin brought us here. And got the Iced Toddy, cold brewed coffee, which was way too strong for me at that time. We went inside this time, it's a small shop. It's a drive-thru as well, so it's perfect when it's raining out. Service is 5 stars as well. All of the drinks we got were onoliscious, no complaints. I miss this place. I will do my best to make my own at home till I come back. Mahalo & Alohaaa! read more

I was leaving Hilo to return to Honolulu and my son took me to Just Cruising Coffee. They have drive through service that goes both ways and it is always pretty busy in the AM. Though it is strictly drive through service there are no widows here. The girls just walk up to your car for your order and the walk up again to give you your order. I don't know what kind of iced coffee I had but I loved it. I just told my son to order what him and his wife were having, it was a good move. Might be a morning ritual for me to come here before my flight. Definitely coming back. read more

A lot of places aren't open on Sundays in Hilo, and I'm so glad Just Cruisin is. Their drive thru line was fairly slow on a Sunday mid-morning, but I don't mind waiting for their quality food. My friends and I all got some form of the Mac nut pesto. I got mine in a salad, and I really enjoyed the dressing it came with. The Mac nut pesto topping was super flavorful and light. This is a great spot to grab a bite, and I love that you don't have to get out of your car. read more

Best milkshakes. All flavors ono! The lines can be a bit crazy from time to time but so worth it! Reasonably priced too.

Great little coffee stop in Hilo. Super friendly staff, easy drive-thru (or walk-up if you park), and really solid coffee. The latte was good with a lot of flavor options, the mocha frappe was delicious, and the breakfast sandwich hit the spot. No frills, just good coffee and food at a great value. It is a great vibe to kickoff the morning. Perfect place to stop in the morning before heading out for the day. read more

5/5 - A must-stop coffee spot on the Big Island! We stumbled upon Just Cruisin Coffee during a morning drive and it instantly became one of our favorite finds! I got the Toasted Macadamia Nut and my husband had the Caramel MacNut--both were smooth, perfectly sweet, and full of rich island flavor. You can taste the aloha in every sip. The drive-up vibe is super chill, and the staff was fast and friendly. Definitely recommend for anyone needing a caffeine fix with local fla read more

Breakfast Pilgrimage: Still Worth It I first stumbled into this place back when I lived in Waikīkī and--OMG--life. changing. food. and. coffee. I'm talking angels-singing, hallelujah-chorus-in-my-mouth level. Years later, after moving to the Big Island, I returned like a pilgrim on a sacred breakfast quest, tasked with bringing back food for everyone. And let me tell you: the soy mocha, the breakfast sandwiches--still just as legendary as I remembered. Worth the drive, worth the calories, worth canceling lunch plans. Bonus: the vibe is peak old Hilo charm. You know those classic wooden storefronts that look like they've been silently keeping everyone's secrets since the 1930s? That's the backdrop. So here's what we do: park the car, actually walk inside (like humans did in ancient times), chat with the genuinely friendly staff, and then sit outside to soak in the moment. Meanwhile, the drive-thru line snakes on forever with poor souls stewing in their cars, engines idling, fumes puffing, stress levels skyrocketing--all because they couldn't be bothered to roll down a window and say "hi" to another human being. So yeah: 5 stars, all the applause, and a standing ovation for reminding us that life is better with good food, strong coffee, friendly people, and zero toxic tech vibes. This place is pure joy in sandwich form. Highlight zinger: Skip the drive-thru--park, breathe, eat like royalty while the car zombies age ten years waiting for their turn. read more

I was able to stop at Just Cruisin coffee before going to the airport. Be prepared to wait if you don't call your order ahead of time the service took a while, around 30 mins. It wasn't too crowded but when I first passed the other day on a Friday it was crazy busy. I definitely would recommend trying to go on a weekday and get the chicken Mac nut with pesto sandwich and the macadamia nut milkshake! They have so many other flavors of milkshakes to choose from. read more

I have had experience running an ice cream shop and took pride in whatever we made. Just Cruisin' is every bit as good. That means these folks are using quality ingredients and combining them with thoughtfulness. They are not fast, but the products are worth waiting for. They are delicious.

Cute little drive-thru coffee and light snacks spot. A couple small tables outside to sit, but I always drive-thru for the convenience. Love that there are so many choices and the frozen beverages are made with real fruit or ice cream! Staff is always so nice & if the line is long, they'll come to your window to take orders at the car. Took off one star because sometimes the wait is pretty long (sometimes it looks like only a couple people working). read more

JCC is always a great place to get a quick bite and a good coffee!! Maybe won't blow your mind, but when it's 5 AM you don't need gourmet- you need straight shots of caffeine and a sandwich that's filling! read more

we drove through and waited about 30 minutes? not sure if worth the wait but I loved the chicken mac nut pesto salad sandwich ($15) the best! the breakfast bagel was more normal, I wish it had more egg to bacon ratio. we also asked for jalapeño bagel but got asiago bagel. the mac nut latte was pretty strong, but the papaya smoothie was bomb, and we saw they used fresh papayas which was nice read more

Oh the famous macadamia nut chicken salad sandwich was all it's cracked up to be. Many little nuts, extra creamcheese on the bottom, (I feel like I wish they gave you a choice of creamcheese flavor), the bread holds up but isn't heavy. Drive thru wax the option of the day, it was hard to see the menu options from the car when theres a line and the staff want to take your order. The cookies were OK, would have been better baked in house. read more

Good coffee for a decent price but the service isn't the best. They don't acknowledge me when I do walk ins and just have me standing around for minutes at end til someone is available which I understand but... atleast ACKNOWLEDGE your customers when they are in your presences! Doesn't take much to say "good morning someone will be with you shortly" I've had to find a new place because customer service is a make or break for me anywhere I go. read more

The food was really good! My gf and I both got breakfast sandwich. She got with saugage and croissant (BOMB) and I got ham with onion bagel. A chicken flew to us and knocked down my coffee lol I asked if I can have another coffee cause the chicken and they gave me me one. So kind of them Staff is really nice and gave such great service! read more

Why do they take orders without writing it down? I've gotten my orders wrong and that's frustrating. I've asked for decaf and sometimes they write it on the cup sometimes they don't, does it mean that it is even though it's not written? The consistency is why they only get a 3 star. read more

Okay, this little gem in downtown Hilo is the place to get some really strong coffee. The only issue was the whipped cream on the outside of the cover, I mean it's typically 80-something degrees everyday, even if it's raining; so it melted and went everywhere! I should take a star for that, but honestly their coffee worked to give all of us a boost of energy to continue working on things for my moms service. They also had breakfast sandwiches and bagels which were fresh, hot, and delicious. If you're ever in Hilo, I highly recommend checking this place out. read more

The mocha Frappuccino was really exceptional. I had the chicken macadamia nut sandwich as well and it was not bad it would be better if I had added avocado and may be if it was offered on a croissant. They have two drive-through's and the people working there come out to your car to take your order. So the line goes fairly fast. My dogs were in the car with me and they started barking at the girl when she came up to the window so she walked away and tried a couple of times finally my dogs chilled out and she was able to take my order but I really appreciated how she was patient and persistent. I parked near the lake right next to it and had a beautiful view as I sat in my car and ate my lunch. read more

This little drive-thru sandwich/coffee shop in Hilo is a winner. Expect lines as the fare is popular with the locals. Our sandwich/coffee order was taken quickly, and our food came out in 20 minutes. The sandwiches are on your choice of bagel. I choose the veggie sandwich but added bacon on Asiago cheese bagel. The sandwich is immense with generous portions of lettuce, avocado, egg, cheese, tomato and onion. The bagel is fresh, soft and chewy. So good. The mocha coffee was perfect-not too sweet. There are no tables, but there is a park close by that you can stop and eat. The staff is friendly but got one of the sandwich orders incorrect. We did not want to wait to fix the order. That said, I'd go back! read more

Honestly, really good drive through coffee at a reasonable price. Normally this type of coffee in Waimea side costs $10-12 for a 12Oz since it's flavored latte (I got Nutella) with almond milk, but for $6-7, I say it's worth. Nutty, with slight sweetness from the Nutella syrup (had to ask for less sweet and extra shot of espresso). A good ratio. Came in the morning, and there was a bit of a line in the drive through , but goes by pretty quick. Faster than the line in Starbucks that's down the street. Not pictured here, iced matcha latte: Really good, dare say similar to the one I get from Starbucks. Would NOT get matcha latte from Waimea coffee co. : terrible Tastes like breast milk flavored matcha. read more
