    Açaí bowl and a mocha
    Harriet T.

    Best mocha I have ever had. The açai bowl was so good. Cute little shop, constant flow of people and I loved it!

    Carmel latte and vanilla latte

    Best coffee in Waikiki. If you're willing to walk 10 min and come here instead of waiting for an hour in line at Kona. This place is amazing. Great latte and sweet people They serve a local coffee roaster (Traditions)

    We stopped into Shoreline Cafe for a morning coffee. The staff member was very friendly and they had a good variety of items on the menu. They offer coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and mango lassi as well as fresh baked goods and acai bowls. We ended up ordering a flat white ($7), House made chai ($8) and Lilikoi bar ($6). There was a good amount of seating available and we grabbed a spot by the window to enjoy everything. I really enjoyed my flat white and it paired wonderfully with the lilikoi bar.

    Tropical acai bowl ($16)

    Storefront & ambiance: 5/5 Cortado: 2/5. Too bitter. (On this street corner, I've tried shoreline, castro's, and vavin. Castro's was best in the espresso category.) Tropical acai bowl: 4/5. Acai was smooth and lovely, granola crunchy and subtly cinnamon spiced (without being hard or too sweet). The bowl could've just used more fruit and riper fruit. Staff: 5/5. Friendly, helpful. Would return for acai or to try the blueberry lychee scone, will not get espresso again.

    Vanilla Latte and Honey Latte

    Cute coffee shop, close to the mall and all the stores, definitely would come back for some coffee!

    Really surprised by this quiet coffee shop. Best matcha I've had on the island so far! Açaí was tasty and fresh, and the almond butter was particularly delicious. Service was quick and all staff were kind and helpful.

    Really nice cafe spot, with good quality matcha lattes (3 g used) that are either higher grade culinary or lower grade ceremonial per the taste. They only have non-decaf coffee options, but I would come back to try a flat white earlier in the day. Very nice baristas! Note that there aren't any baked goods (or maybe they sold out?) contrary to a photo of a croissant I saw. Large seating area for Waikiki, and ambiance is good for working. No bathrooms inside.

    Açaí bowl and yummy blueberry pastry
    Laura G.

    My daughter and I walked up and down Waikiki and ate several different açai bowls and she says this is the tastiest one. It really is delicious.

    Mango Poptart
    Fassion P.

    Very cute and quaint coffee shop. They have a good selection of pastries. And very good coffee selection. Decent priced. Very nice staff with explaining their menu and suggestions. I had a caramel mocha and my husband had an espresso tonic. Highly recommend.

    Mango pop tart
    Kim P.

    Stopped in for a coffee and light breakfast and it did not disappoint. For food we tried the mango pop tart and the tropical açaí bowl and both were delicious. I especially enjoyed the texture and flavor of the açaí as well as the homemade granola. To drink, my husband tried the latte and it was very good. Small but cute place with friendly service.

    Great place. Made from scratch foods and unique pastries. Great coffee as well. Highly recommend. Only caveat is due to location it's extra pricey, but that is expected

    Located on the corner of Kalakaua and Saratoga Avenue, this café immediately draws you in with its open and inviting entrance. The interior is surprisingly spacious, giving off a relaxed, upscale vibe. It's common to see solo guests unwinding with a cup of coffee at the cozy tables. Back when I lived in Waikiki, I often came here to refresh myself with a coffee break on busy days--the bright and airy atmosphere always lifted my spirits. Their display of pastries and croissants is truly tempting. While I usually stick to coffee and rarely eat out, I recently revisited Waikiki and decided to pick up a few of their popular pastries and croissants as gifts. I was amazed by the variety and ended up choosing mostly based on staff recommendations--which turned out to be absolutely perfect! Each item was crafted with care, beautifully presented, and rich in flavor. I was thoroughly impressed. These pastries and savory breads are refined enough to satisfy even the discerning Japanese palate. If you're in Waikiki, I highly recommend stopping by and treating yourself! カラカウア通りとサラトガ通りの交差点沿いにあるこのカフェは、開放的なエントランスが印象的で、思わず立ち寄りたくなる雰囲気を醸し出しています。 店内は広々としていて贅沢な空間が広がっており、小さめのテーブルではソロでコーヒー片手にゆったり過ごしている人の姿がよく見られます。私もワイキキに住んでいた頃、忙しい日には時々ここでコーヒーを飲んでリフレッシュしていました。 美味しそうなペストリーやクロワッサンがずらりと並んでいるのを横目に私は普段はコーヒーブレークのみ。でも、先日久々にワイキキを訪れたので、此処の美味しそうなペストリーやクロワッサンを思い出していくつか購入しました。 種類がとても豊富で迷いながら選びましたが、スタッフのおすすめを参考にして大正解!どれも丁寧に作られていて、見た目も美しく、味もリッチで大満足でした。 日本人の繊細な味覚にも合う、美味しいペストリーと調理パン。ワイキキに訪れた際は、ぜひ立ち寄ってみてください。

    Really cute coffee shop
    AmberAyame T.

    Service was excellent- so nice and prompt. Prices are reasonable and the place is really cute, comfortable and clean. Açaí bowls (tried both) were really good and I don't normally care for syrups but I think they make these here- really good, tried a mix of 2. Vanilla and a purple flower one lol I can't recall the name offhand... will absolutely be back. Kid lived his mayo lassie and he drinks them a lot so he's a harsh mango lassie critic lol. Four of us, all very caffeinated now and full.

    Been back here multiple times since moving to Hawaii…read more Same great service. Nice coffee shop ambiance. Good outdoor seating space to people watch, enjoy your Koma coffee and some gourmet pastries. Those of you unfamiliar with Kouign Amann - Google it! Definitely must try if you have not had it. Along with Kona Coffee, of course. If you're in Waikiki or visiting Oahu, this is one of the coffee shops I highly recommend.

    I used to absolutely love Kona Coffee Purveyors. For years, my wife and I made this place part of…read moreour Waikiki routine. I've waited in the long lines. I've walked out of the way from hotels just to get coffee and pastries here. I'm not even a pastry person, but this place made me care. The coffee, the croissants, the sandwiches. It used to feel expensive but justified because the quality was there. This last visit felt like the magic was gone. We came back during a long family trip with our two young kids, and the service was cold from the start. One employee seemed more interested in her phone and side conversations than the customers in front of her. The coffee was handed over messily, with liquid spilled on top like nobody cared enough to wipe it down. My wife also asked for a cup of ice when there were barely any people in line and instead of simply helping, the response was curt and dismissive, as if asking for something small was an inconvenience. The frustrating part is that this place built its reputation on details. Great coffee. Excellent pastries. Long lines that felt worth it because you were getting something special. Now it feels overpriced, indifferent and tired. Maybe the pastries are still good. Maybe the coffee is still technically good. But when the hospitality disappears, the whole experience changes. What used to feel like a destination now feels like another expensive Waikiki coffee counter coasting on reputation. I hate writing this because this place used to be a must visit for us. But after this trip, I'm done making the trek.

    This place has been my absolute favorite for good drinks and breakfast food…read more I was staying at the Outrigger Hotel that is attached to this cafe and I went here almost every single day. Food: 5/5 I was able to try several of their brunch items including their Ham & Cheese Croissant, their Turkey Pest Sandwich, and their Traditional Waffle. Almost all of them were a hit! I especially liked their Turkey Pesto. It paired beautifully with their salad. Their breakfast waffle was also light and fluffy and their fruit was fresh. Drinks: 5/5 I tried their many lattes, coffees, smoothies. Their açaí smoothie was not my favorite because it had a lot of unblended seeds. I did love their leans & green smoothie, it had so many fruits and greens in it, and it also tasted so good. Service: 5/5 This place had wonderful service. All of their servers were so kind and they explained their menu so well. The food and drinks came out pretty timely and everything was fresh to order. Ambiance: 5/5 This place is attached to the Outrigger Hotel so they share a cafe area with the pool. It was beautiful to be able to enjoy breakfast by the poolside. It was giving summer vibes outside. Inside their cafe was very tropical with plants everywhere. I would definitely come back here for the food, the drinks, the happy hour, the ambiance, and the service!

Tons of different coffees and energy drinks to choose from too. Aroma Cafe isn't too pricey, but isn't cheap either, definitely worth every penny though! Two thumbs, two toes, and a Shaka for Hawaiian Aroma Cafe! Happy eating, my foodies!

    Visited Knots Coffee Roasters for breakfast before heading to Koko Head, and it gave me the boost I…read moreneeded. I ordered the breakfast burrito, which was a really reasonable price for the heart of Waikiki. On top of that, it was both big and satisfying. It's mainly made with eggs, potatoes, bell peppers, and cheese, so if you like eggs, you'll enjoy it. Some of my friends thought it had too many eggs and lacked actual meat of some sort, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. The burritos are premade and warmed up after you order, so you can't really make any modifications. You can also order from the restaurant upstairs, but we were told the wait is around 30 minutes. I also tried the strawberry matcha, which was decent but nothing special. It's located on the first floor of a hotel and has plenty of seating, including options for larger groups.

    Honestly, I keep coming back because I'm clearly in a toxic relationship with this coffee shop…read more It's my favorite spot, for the convienence and view - but they frequently treat my coffee order like a long-lost friend they forgot to invite to the party. Like, I've ordered coffee and food here before and they've just weiiiiirdly forgotten to make it...multiple times. Today I waited 25 minutes, just vibing with my friend while they finished their food and drink, before realizing I had to ask where MY drink was. They apologized and fixed it immediately, but it's becoming a 'thing.' I'm still going to come here, but I'm honestly looking for a new favorite spot where they don't forget to make my coffee, at a coffee shop. If you go here, bring a book, be prepared to wait, and definitely don't be shy about asking for your drink. It's a test of patience, but the coffee is good when you finally get it!
