Decent coffee, not great. Cute little coffee truck off the side of the road. It's in a little corner by a park and other food trucks. It was by far the most expensive coffee I tried on the island. It was standard coffee with store-bought syrups. Nothing much more. The barista working wasn't in a good mood, vibes weren't great. read more

Absolutely wonderful coffee shop run by wonderful people & serving amazing coffee + other fun drinks. I love the little spot they're in, it's so quintessentially Kauai. I personally love the mushroom latte add espresso & their regular latte with macadamia milk. Kilauea is also just an amazing spot on Kauai and this little coffee shop really adds to the aloha vibes. Can't say enough good things. & Mason, you're the best! read more

Tried the Italian soda and a chai latte. Was disappointed to not see any locally made syrups for the soda like most other establishments on the island. The owner was set up with his computer at one of the two tables taking away sitting from customers which was surprising. Otherwise the place is nice but not extraordinary. read more

We loved returning to Nanea Coffee on our recent trip back to Kauai! One of our favorite places to visit on the island. The owner, Mason, is a gem - he created the peaceful and beautiful environment filled with plants and flowers. Plus, he makes an awesome vanilla latte! If you're looking for great coffee + a beautiful outdoor spot to enjoy your coffee then this is the place. We can't wait to return! read more

Such a cute vibe and was excited to try it out! I was thoroughly shocked... at how genuinely disgusting it was. I'm not sure if it was so expensive from all the ants they added to my coffee, or from all the extra chai clumped up at the bottom of my tea, but WOW. I've had some nasty chais in my life but this one topped it. $16 wasted. Will not recommend ever. I live here. read more

Would have stopped here for coffee every morning we were on the north coast, except they were closed on Sunday! Delicious coffee, especially if you order something with the locally-grown chocolate in it. Owner is friendly and laid back, lots of fun outdoor space and sitting areas to enjoy your time there (so many plants and flowers!), and an open-air fruit market right next door. Oh, and the coffee guy's parents met in Eugene OR, where my wife and I also met... so that was fun to discover! read more

Stopped here for the very best flat white coffee (the price was more than reasonable given it was imbued with the positive energy of one who loves his craft and art) I have had the pleasure of enjoying in over a 100 mermaid years! Mason was an absolute and genuine delight providing excellent customer service but moreover it was enchanting to speak with him whilst he assured all felt well-received and welcomed by sharing his sparkling 'aloha' heart and beautifully warm smile. This charming little turquoise-coloured treasure is tucked away under the most gorgeous cacao and fruit trees. If you enjoy the 'island spirit', I strongly recommend this sparkling little jewel should not be missed when in the neighbourhood (perhaps Mason may even share the story of mermaid tears whilst you enjoy your favourite bevy ;o). Also strongly recommend tucking into the Anaina Hou Market (immediately adjacent to Mason's paradise) for locally made and breathtakingly delicious chocolate.

Mason has put a great deal of effort creating a beautifully landscaped, clean, and delicious coffee and tea truck. He renovated a vintage Grumman milk van into a fully equipped espresso bar! It's my go to spot for spicy chai tea, and also has become a place to meet new friends and talk story! Mason has also created a native Hawaiian plant nursery and has extensive knowledge of local agriculture. The farm on which Nanea is located has over 100 different varieties of tropical plants and trees, including nearly 200 cacao trees and produces bean-to-bar chocolate. read more

Mason does a great job with his coffees. Takes his time to make your coffee just right. We try to get to Kauai every year. The last two years, since Mason and his Nanea Coffee has been open, we always get something 3 or 4 times a trip. My wife loves his Iced Lattes. We were there this past Saturday and while waiting for my wife's beverage, we sang Happy Birthday to Hailey who was assisting Mason and I chatted with three lovely ladies, one visiting Kauai for the first time. So the relaxed kick back vibe made the ambience, the experience, delightful! Thanks Mason. We will be back! Cheers and Peace, Tom read more

Favorite coffee place in Kauai! I didn't get the name of the gent who helped me, however, their espresso is superb. I am a big coffee connoisseur where I regret not buying some of the beans. The lad who helped is super chill where I asked if he had anything unique, which he did. He had a local homemade rose syrup, which was awesome. I would suggest to put a light amount as it can be overpowering. My partner tried the Carmel americano along with the latte and both were amazing! The Carmel americano will be my go to drink.

Loved the tacos which had a real kick but the spicy garlic shrimp was really the star. First the Kauai shrimp was super fresh and personally I love eating shrimp heads so this was a real treat. The shrimp had such a nice texture and flavor I could tell they were great quality. The spicy garlic sauce was definitely the best I've had. So much flavor and with just a bit of kick to complement the umami shrimp. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Kauai and will come earlier just in case they sell out!

Warm welcome, delicious food, large portions and very reasonable pricing. We enjoyed the BBQ Mix…read moreGrill, the Hawaiian Grill and Chicken Katsu. The Sesame Balls were without compare. So convenient if you are staying in the Princeville area and in the mood for good Hawaiian BBQ and a casual atmosphere.

Solid spot for Hawaiian food in Princeville, especially since they're open later (until 9pm)…read more Portions were generous. We tried the mochiko chicken, which was perfectly fried, and the Kalua pork with cabbage, both super flavorful. The Spam saimin was also a standout. The broth was rich and flavorful, and the noodles had a nice firm texture that paired really well. Hit the spot after a late-night arrival in Kauai.

Wow! Infinite choices of shave ice. Be sure you call it…read moreSHAVE and not shaved LOL Nice little family owned place, sure to cool you off while satisfying your sweet tooth.

I have tried a lot of shave ice and this is another one that I recommend. So there is no bad shave…read moreice. But a good shave ice has a great flavor on their syrup. My husband and I both had different flavors and the syrup was really flavorful and as the ice melted the flavors was still yummy. They are located in the Kong Lung Shopping center inside the courtyard. You can't miss the cute little trailer. The manager was super nice as she was training a new staff. Give them a try.

So glad we found this mobile coffee shop! It's a great stop if you are headed down from north shore to south shore. The owner took extra time to understand the coffee drink my partner wanted. He got it perfect! I got a cappuccino and loved it. read more
