    First Visit -- Mixed Feelings First time trying Bad Ass Coffee of Hawaii, and I walked away with mixed feelings. We ordered 2 sandwiches, 2 coffees, and 6 malasadas. Let's start with the ordering process. The young lady at the register was polite but seemed a bit confused. We told her it was our first time, and when we said we wanted six malasadas, she replied "so three?" twice. My wife corrected her, saying "no, six," and again got "yes, three." That back-and-forth could've been avoided with a simple explanation like, "No problem, just so you know, they're sold in pairs I'll ring you up for six." Instead, it turned into a small but frustrating moment. We got called up three separate times. once for sandwiches, then for coffee, then for malasadas. Not sure why it couldn't have all come out together. Time is valuable, and standing up three times for one order feels unnecessary. As a customer anywhere dont like my time being wasted. Customer service: Everyone was polite and patient, especially since it was our first visit. No attitude, just could use a little more attention to detail for new customers. I did go back up to see if they can add cream to take away the bitterness. Waited a few minutes even after eye contact as if they really didn't want to fix an issue. More time wasted. Food- Looked better in the pictures. It seems like most of it is premade and reheated, likely microwaved or oven-warmed. The Bad Ass One Sandwich (Spam, egg, pineapple, BBQ sauce) -- The spam looked undercooked, and I didn't taste any BBQ sauce. Honestly, not so "bad ass." Would've been much better if cooked fresh on a griddle. Bacon, Egg, and Cheddar Sandwich -- This one was solid. Simple, good, nothing overhyped. Malasadas -- We got 6 (3 pairs... lesson learned). They were dry and crumbly, not the soft, pillowy kind we know. My wife's from Guam, so malasadas are kind of a big deal for her, and these didn't hit the mark. They're more like mochi donuts as far as the round shape. Dry donut texture . If you've never had malasadas before, maybe try one pair first before committing to three.. look up Islam sushi in Vegas. Look at their Yelp page and see what a true malasada are. Especially the custard filled ones. Coffee My mocha iced coffee -- super bitter, strong, and had a ton of syrup sitting at the bottom. Not for me. My wife's hot mocha coffee -- perfect balance, smooth and flavorful. Funny how the same drink turned out completely different. There was also a $1.10 upcharge for each almond or coconut milk coffee. Would've appreciated a heads-up since we said it was our first time I would've just gone with regular milk. Total: $41.87 -- not cheap for what we got. Overall, I'd give Bad Ass Coffee of Hawaii a 3 out of 5. The place is clean, the staff is friendly, but the food and coffee need more consistency and fresh prep to match the prices and the name. I wouldn't drive out of my way for it, but if you're nearby, give it a try and see for yourself maybe your experience will hit better than ours.

    Sa this spot when driving down the freeway. Finally got a chance to try it a few weeks ago. I tried the regular hot latte first with no added flavor to see what kind of coffee I was working with. I have now tried the three wave hot latte and the tasty donuts. Run here not walk...Here are my thoughts: Regular Latte- Robust good quality bean. A coffee that can hold its own. Flavor only enhances the mature bean flavor it does not mask it. Definitely a contender to more well known establishments. Three Wave Hot Latte- the coconut is prevalent and tasty along with the other flavors. Very rich and has a depth of flavor all the way to the last drop. Top notch coffee! Twisted Malasada Donuts- OMG these pillowy soft delights are well above a regular donut. The twist of the dough locks in the softness and tenderness once cooked. The cinnamon and sugar dusted all over brings the experience full circle. I have to stay away from these. I can see it getting out of hand.

    I'll give them another try- awesome- friendly- service with a smile! Great variety but my coffee was $6 for the smallest cup- I ordered the three waves and asked to cut the sugar just a bit- but it kind of tasted liked hot foam. I wanted to love it- but it was a miss. Not a strong coffee flavor- wahh. I love coffee from Hawaii and wanted to love this place. Really sweet people though. I paid $6 for a cup and added the tip on the signature screen- but left with a not so great tasting coffee.

    I come here for the coffee ice cubes! What a great concept as it keeps my iced coffee from getting watered down as the ice melts. But I can't wait to try the Koffee Kooler in the slushee machine. I have been in store and thru the drive-thru and have had excellent service every time. I drive out of my way to come here for my afternoon caffeine fix.

    Nice new location in McKinney. Large space for meeting up with friends or working. Great select of take home coffee and merchandise. Plenty of options for coffee drinks- hot, iced, or cold brew. Plus, you can get 100% Kona here. I tried the lava cold brew and it was delicious. Will definitely return.

    Inside. Cozy

    First time here & I love it. It's so convenient off Hi 75! The owner, Jason is so friendly & greets you with Aloha & the Aloha spirit! The coffee is truly Bad Ass! Please Konya & visit this place!

    Chain coffee shop that claims their coffee is 100% Kona. Well, I've visited the Big Island, and this didn't taste like the Kona coffee that I experienced. Coffee at home has more personality. The inside is sparce and impersonal, lacking the non-chain charm. We ordered the spam breakfast sandwiches and wound up with the ham breakfast sandwiches. They made it right and comped the meal right away, so that's why the three stars. Sorry, not impressed with this new coffee house.

They've carved out cozy seating nooks, tucked-in corners, and little pockets of personality everywhere you look.

Would love to go back maybe earlier in the day next time and try their Rose Gold coffee. It sounded amazing!

It can get pretty loud since a lot of guests come to chat with friends and family, but putting on my AirPods helped me focus and enjoy my time there. The only downside was the cashier experience. She seemed more busy chatting with her coworker and wasn't very friendly. Another staff member was the one who asked me if I need help with the menu. After I paid, the cashier didn't even ask if I needed a receipt and just walked away. Overall, I still enjoyed the coffee and atmosphere. If the customer service were friendlier, this place would easily be a 5-star spot for me.

And this stop? Exactly what I needed. I found myself at Summer Moon Coffee, leaning into a moment that felt slow, intentional... almost like time paused just long enough for me to catch up with myself. Let's talk about it. The Drink: Quarter Moon White Chocolate Latte. Smooth. Creamy. Elevated. That perfect balance of rich espresso and subtle sweetness--not overpowering, just enough to make you pause after the first sip. And that signature Moon Milk? Yeah... that's the difference. The Experience: Warm. Inviting. Uncomplicated. The kind of place where you don't feel rushed--you feel received. From the texture of the foam to the first inhale of that roasted aroma... it felt like a reset in a cup. The Vibe: Soft conversations. Natural light. A quiet kind of energy that lets you gather your thoughts before stepping back into the world. Final Thought: If you're moving through DFW and need a moment to land before your next move... this is it. Because sometimes, the journey isn't about where you're going-- it's about where you pause. And this pause? Was worth it. -- How Did We Get Here?

It's the perfect balance of creamy, spicy, and refreshing! And when I'm feeling a little extra spicy, adding a shot (or two!) of espresso takes it to a whole new level without losing that signature smoothness. My kids are obsessed with the Moon Glacier (no espresso, of course), and it's become their little treat every time we go. My husband usually goes for an Americano or their cold brew, and both are consistently bold, clean, and delicious -- exactly what he loves. Summer Moon just has that warm, inviting vibe that makes every visit feel like a small moment of joy. Great drinks, great energy, and something for everyone in the family. It's one of those places you look forward to returning to again and again!
