She said all coffees are pre-sold and orders are taken in advance as they roast fresh what they sell. When I looked depressed and dejected, she said they have about 10# of espresso coffee beans just roasted and if I would like that. Of course, I said yes and bought 2lbs. Next morning after landing back home, the espresso beans were just amazing. They were not as dark as I thought - it was the perfect dark roast I was looking for. Not burnt - very low acid - wonderful fruity taste/aroma. Going to mail order another 5# and try their other roasts.

Quite possibly the best part (aside from the coffee) is their covered seating area. They have lots of bench style seating & outside there are tables so it's perfect for a coffee date! I enjoyed my iced kinako hojicha & my mom a cappuccino. But they have all your faves here so there is sure to be something for everyone. The staff were readily able to give us recommendations and our drinks were out within 5 minutes on a Sunday morning. I don't come to town often, but I think I found another gem that I'd return to in the future :)

There's also a large selection of coffee and souvenirs to browse, so it's a fun place to pick up some gifts or something to bring home.

Really wished I picked up some funny and cute stickers, but at least I got some pricey delicious coffee beans and some Dave's Hawaiian ice cream. Service was great as they let us sample some coffee and ice cream. Busy spot, extremely decorated with a lot of signs. I tried their ube ice cream here and it was a generous portion for a scoop. Very great texture and it wasn't too sweet at all. High quality local beans for their coffee. Wish I had gotten more!

The coffee shop can be entered from the mall or outside; they also have outdoor seating where you can order on your phone. Indoors is cozier and more fun, with bar seating, tables, and oversized chairs to relax. They have a lot of merchandise to go, including beans. If you're stopping in for a refreshment, they have a nice menu of hot and cold coffee drinks, teas, sodas, etc. They also have baked goods- I tried the 'ulu banana bread and really enjoyed it. I also had an iced cold brew, which was strong and creamy. Prices were reasonable for the quality and being in Waikiki. They can pour your drinks for dine in or disposable to go. This is definitely a recommended coffee shop in Waikiki!

I wish they would've added more almond butter. My 3 star review mostly coming from the fact that they don't have a bathroom available until 11am because it's shared with the duty free store next door. Not even sure if that's legal, but a bathroom should absolutely be available during their opening hours. Had to leave rushing to find a bathroom nearby. However, good for working with good WiFi and ample seats.

I did get one of their specialty coffee drinks for my husband and he said it was really sweet so maybe ask for a reduction in syrup.

I've had…read moreKona coffee multiple times, so I decided to try the Ka'ū beans since they're also local to Hawaii. The pour over was on the lighter side and pretty smooth. It leaned more mellow than bright or juicy, so it wasn't quite the fruit-forward cup I usually gravitate toward. This Ali'i Coffee location was the closest to me, and there are a few tables available for dine-in. They also have plenty of breakfast options. I won't lie, but my mouth was watering from the smell of the breakfast sandwiches they were heating up for other customers.

What better place to go than somewhere local that has me caffeinated for awhile and while Kaka'ako/Ward area has been sadly moved on so did Ali'i Coffee to the Ala Moana location Street Level between Agua Cabana and Jollibee. Selfishly I do love this location obviously with lots of parking the mall provides with just short walking distance to them and seating both inside and outside with all the sips and bites like the usual. I do normally have their teas but on this fall day it was the "Pumpkin Cold Brew" the bite of fall has arrived and I do love to order the specials as it is limited and the unique flavors of the season is never to be missed. The staff is very friendly and kind and love the calm vibe the restaurant provides as not only I get charged but so did my phone as it was only on 9% (yikes!) well they're open later versus the Ward hours of 2pm to now at the Ala Moana location of 6pm does give me the chance to peek in and sip some of their finest brew. Thank you!
