    The owner Jenny is lovely. She really cares about her business and the coffee tastes great. Get the Mac nut latte!! We loved the lilikoi and bacon egg bagels too, she's got toast options and crepes as well. Highly recommend for a to go light breakfast.

    We enjoyed the Mac Nut Latte & Matcha Espresso Latte here! I'm personally not a fan of Macadamia Nut but my husband is and he really enjoyed his drink. I loved my matcha latte w/espresso and the owner was so kind to add an additional shot to both of our drinks to balance it (a shot was split between our drinks). This is definitely one of the better spots in Kauai for coffee and I hope everyone can get to try it. I generally do not order matcha much due to the risk of it tasting too grassy but I thoroughly enjoyed hers here and it was not too much! The matcha flavor still came through and I love that the drinks here aren't too milky.

    Sign. Indefinitely closed.

    Would've loved to try but we were greeted by a sign that says indefinitely closed. It's inside the market but there's another smoothie place behind it for your smoothie/acai bowl fix :)

    The artichoke Parmesan bagel is delicious. My husband and I had to make another trip here before we left. We also got the macadamia coffee which was so yummy too. Everything was just too good.

    Coffee is made fresh to order

    Great food, great service, amazing coffee! Thank you for the hospitality, the delish food, and the great conversation

    The wife and I went to Rise N Shine cafe and were very pleased with the food! Coming from Washington we sure do love our coffee so we didn't know what to expect. But Rise n shine really know how to make a macadamia nut coffee highly recommend!

    The great place. I highly recommend trying creeps with cheese and fruits, and a Macadamia latte.

    Mac nut latte was great! Her matcha espresso latte was also good, didn't taste like grass. One of the better coffees we had in Kauai.

    I wanted to like this place more, but it's very mid, the matcha and latte were really just 3/5…read morestars. I ordered a hot matcha latte with oat milk, and the matcha already comes pre-sweetened per the barista. It tastes very similar to Starbucks matcha, not horrible but not great either. A little too sweet for my liking and not enough of the matcha flavor comes through. The color also wasn't the correct shade of green for good quality matcha, but I'm someone who likes to make my matcha at home and rarely find ones at coffee shops that I actually like, so take my review with that in mind, if you're a casual matcha drinking then you would like their version. It doesn't dry your tongue out or have a bitter taste. The following day I decided to try their coffee and ordered a hot vanilla oat milk latte. It was just okay, the espresso is a little more on the acidic side and I couldn't taste any vanilla flavor. Definitely not the worst latte I've had in Hawaii, but for the cost of lattes nowadays, I wouldn't come back to try more of their menu until I try other local coffee shops first. Pros: Plenty of parking right out front, good amount of seating inside, clean bathrooms, wifi, they sell their coffee beans and merchandise including shirts and hats which are super cute, there is also a small shop inside the same building that sells clothing/candles/bags/etc and the store employee is super nice

The star of the place is definitely Smash Cafe. I order the OG "Original" SMASH BURGER. There are tables and chairs that are set in the shade as well as friendly chickens to keep you company. Even though it was a food truck they still brought the food to and it was a 10-15 min wait MAX. This has to be the best burger I have had EVER!!! It was so fresh I had to wait a bit for it to cool off. The patties were juicy and crispy along the edges, the truffle aioli worked so well with the cheese and beef flavors. The fries were cooked to perfection as well. I strongly suggest you ask for some extra aioli on the side to dip the fries in. They have other menu items as well like crispy chicken, veggie burgers, and they even have a vegan Beyond Burger. I strongly suggest you give them a try you will not be disappointed.

The burger and fries were freshly made and tasted yummy. There were also some soft drinks available at the store for purchase. The only thing was there were so many chickens wandering around the tables and that is common in Kauai.
