Love this spot…read more Vibe: laid-back Service: friendly Coffee: smooth Food: yummy I recommend both the taro pudding and big boss breakfast - can't go wrong with either choice. There are plenty of tasty baked goodies, too. As a bonus, coffee is served in a ceramic mug, letting you sip as a local, if you choose... gotta love this hippie side of the island! :-)

Amazing ownership Great business fruit smoothies in town…read morepahoa Perfect on a hot day or just need some vitamins and nutrients. Check em out when in pahoa!!!

I love the laid back, super chill vibe of Pahoa, and the Smoothie Shack fits in perfectly!…read more After finding treasures at The Mystic Closet, we were in need of some sustenance and thus wandered - luckily - onto the patio of the Shack! In no time, we had a beautiful açaí bowl and smoothie to bring us back to life. The server gave us excellent recommendations and was so kind - this was a fantastic respite and I genuinely wish I was basking in the sun and grubbing on this bowl right now!

Just realized I didn't take any pictures. Sad! Well let me paint one for you…read more If you're missing your fancy big city food then this is the place to come. While they appear to be a casual, local, hippy establishment (and they are). The food and wait is worth every penny, (and pennies are more valuable now). You will hear live music when you approach building. It's bright and colorful, open air and you can feel your inner artist being inspired. The place is packed but you find a seat and listen to the laughter, singing, and sizzles from the kitchen. It's small and bundles of fruit seam to just be around everywhere. Your server gives you a menu and you think. "Oh wow! That's a bit pricy." But you're all in. Considering this place is proud of its farm to table reputation. Yes, nothing goes to waist here and it as fresh as you can possibly get. So you order and wait. And you wait, and you wait. Finally the plate arrives and it's beautiful. A paradise of fruit, veggie filled omelet and some things you're not sure if you can eat them or if it's just decoration. (You can eat them) Have you ever heard of a cranberry hibiscus? I'm not a fan of salsa with my eggs but they make their own from scratch and they also sell it. So I have to at least try it. "What is in this! Magic?" Before you know it a whole days life experience has just happened. There were ups, there were downs, and surprises. Not just from the food but the whole surroundings. Let's just say nothing was left on the plate and I have stories to tell. Our server was the sweetest older lady who you can tell just loved her job and people. In fact all the workers were just rays of sunshine and smiles. Did I just have breakfast or walk into a magical world where time stood still and surrounded me in song and colors. I swear I don't do substances, it's just that good.

We were very impressed with the Poke and hot food offerings, all of it looked so good but my wife settled on the fish bento box. She said it was the best fish she's had in our entire trip and her only regret was she didn't get two! I was a fan of the cool wall mural as well, 10/10 would recommend.

The beer menu changes so this time no stout beers, the darkest was modelo negro, several local breweries. And one sour. But you can take draft beer home. Poke selection is nice at the deli section, the hot foods and sushi is very tasty. The baked good are definitely worth it. Ube cake!!! The salt and vinegar chicharon for $10 is amazing. Fried chicken skins seems to still have feathers attached. Great customer service.

The papaya salad was so fresh and at ($9) for a whole quart so affordable and easy to share with friends. The papaya stand was my favorite one as she makes the salad fresh in front of you. The purple tapioca potato pudding was so dense and interesting, really rich and lovely to try. I was also blown away by the macadamia nut croissant ($6), the croissant itself was fine, flaky and well baked, but the macadamia nut butter frangipane filling for the croissant stole the show. It was so decadent and sweet I savored every bite of the croissant! The marinated goat cheeses from the goat cheese stand were the most delicious goat cheese I've had in my life. Super creamy, luscious, silky and with interesting flavors. I grabbed two spicy goat cheeses I was so obsessed. There is so much to see eat and try!
