Cute spot, ample amount of parking, great service, the perfect sized menu, and kid-friendly. A friend recommended this spot and I'm so glad I tried it out. We went about an hour and a half before they closed and it was empty, which was nice because we had a 1 year old with us and he was able to roam around. Our drinks came out quick and our food was warm and freshly made to order. It honestly was one of the bigger Caesar salads I've seen in a while. The salad was surprisingly light and refreshing. There was a zesty taste to it and the lettuce was crunchy and cut into bite size pieces. I really enjoyed it. My coffee was sooo good. It was sweet, but I like my coffee on the sweeter side. What really stood out to me about this coffee shop was the music. They played local, reggae, island music and it was such a vibe. The baby was Jammin out, too. I also love the fact that this place is centrally located on island. I highly recommend this place to both locals and tourists. read more

My friend here on Kauai suggested this since she loves their Coffee and loves the vibes. I must agree with her! It's a cute hip spot to chill with friends and family. There was no line when we got inside. I was hoping to get their Apapane (Matcha with Strawberry puree) but they were out sadly so I got my second fav which is Iced Hojicha Latte with Coconut Milk and my Dad got Hot Amakihi which he liked, it had Banana Brown Sugar. When I got my drink, the server asked me to try it since she thinks the Coconut Milk overpowered my drink which it did so she remade it with Almond Milk and it tasted way better. They asked if I wanted flavor to the Hojicha like Caramel or Brown Sugar but I don't like my drinks too sweet so I got it straight up plain which was to my liking. Breakfast food items were delicious! Dad loved his yummy brioche bun and he had scrambled eggs in his Breakfast Sandwich which also had Ham, Cheddar Cheese and Garlic Aioli. My Avocado Toast was also real delicious! It had the Avocado Spread, Cucumbers, Cherry Tomatoes, Arugula, Feta and drizzle of Balsamic Vinaigrette. I added an Over Hard Egg for that Protein which was needed. Add ANY pastry according to my friend. You can't go wrong! We got the Lemon Lavender Scone which was delicious! All together was quite a lot, maybe $50 or so but overall, delicious coffee and Breakfast/Lunch selection and the vibes were on point. Cute macrame rope art on the wall for a boho look! read more

1-25-2026 I asked and was told they've been open about 2 months. $50.35 for breakfast for two. See photos and bill. Loud upbeat music playing. AC blasting. Hub's mocha was good he said his large chocolate chip crookie was dry. My peach tea first sip was S-O-U-R but as I waited for it to dilute and got used to it, it was okay. Shared half my breakfast burrito with hubs. Egg and cheese innards were good, the Kalua pork was a bit salty. Some might like it that way. I shared half my ube cream cheese muffin also. It looked interesting. The cream cheese was good but only went down the center 1/3 of the way. Wish there was more on the top or filled all the way down inside. It was warm which was nice but also not moist. Maybe tweak the recipe a tad cuz it could be a winner. They also had brownie squares and scones that caught my eye. They hadn't had their sandwich board sign out til a male employee took it out when we were about to leave. I asked someone in the parking lot since there was no sign either except hours. The interior is a good size with various seating options. I noticed most customers came in for coffee. While they waited for it to be made, most headed to sit on the brown couch. read more

This spot has has hands down the best delicious muffins! The ube cream cheese muffin was incredible but I have had their other seasonal muffins (I believe it was cranberry orange?) and they were wonderful also. I have tried their breakfast burritos which were also really great too. Coffee took a while to finish but I will definitely be back. Great service and nice personality from the employees. The ambiance is upbeat and good music to vibe with. I will definitely be back! read more

Cool coffeehouse in a strip mall. Edgy and modern appearance. Music track playing. Staff was nice enough but there was an unusual delay between getting stuff that we had ordered. Two breakfast sandwiches came out first, followed by the Nutella crepe about 8 minutes later. The iced latte was up at the counter within a minute or two and the pour-over coffee came up ten minutes later. Not the end of the world, lost a star there. Maybe a touch pricey as well but hey it's Hawaii! The rest was great. Menu quality, food and beverage taste and presentation was all very good. I'd stop here again. read more

Cute coffee shop with a lovely interior space. Seems like a great place to get work done, chat with friends, or just sit in a corner writing yelp reviews with great coffee and food options. They had a nice selection of latte / specialty drink options which my partner enjoys, as well as pourovers using local beans which is up my alley. The staff was friendly and warm, definitely a great place to stop by for coffee. read more

Super cute coffee truck with fun options! They have typical coffee/lattes and specialty lattes. I wasn't sure what to get, so I asked which one was their favorite and they told me the Nene is the most popular. You can also customize, so I made mine more like a banana foster. Really delicious, I would go back! Reasonably priced, just under $13 for 2 medium specialty lattes. They also have muffins. There is a seating area, some benches and you can listen to the roosters as you wait for your coffee. Staff was SO friendly. They walked us through the drink options and yell your name when ready. read more

New location, more food options, same quality drinks and super friendly service! Their new spot on Rice street is conveniently located in Lihue and features plenty of indoor seating. They now offer hot breakfast and lunch options like breakfast burritos, crepes, and daily soups! With more space they also have more pastries available every day which is great for those of us who have previously gone to the trailer at 8:30 only to find the muffins sold out. Of course we will miss the cute Kalaheo trailer, but we are so happy to have another great coffee spot in Lihue! I can't wait to try their new smoothies on our next visit! Congratulations Bluebird on this start of a beautiful new chapter! read more

First time I tried the Ube Matcha Latte, made by the owner--super good! I've also had the haupia syrup matcha over ice with Ube cold foam--sooooo amazing! The Ube muffins to die for. Red velvet brownie--so moist and tasted soooo good! The breakfast food--sandwich and burrito looked sooo good. Just haven't had a chance to order for myself. Maybe next time! The Establishment is newly remodeled and therefore extremely clean. Staff is exceptional--friendly, quick and helpful! Use to drive to kalaheo just for their tea, and now their new Lihue location is so convenient. Unfortunately 2 of the 4 matcha drinks I've ordered were just okay. I know they have many new employees, so I'll give it more time. Or maybe it's time for me to try other drinks. read more

Amazing drinks and out of such a cute cart! My wife and I stopped by Blue Bird on our way to Waimea and we loved our drinks. I ordered the Nene and my wife got the Apapane, which was their strawberry matcha drink. We thought both of them were flavored really well and were perfectly sweet. My wife also appreciate that they were made with alternative milks by default, as she dislikes the taste of regular milk. There was a small area next to the cart that you could sit and enjoy you drink if you choose to do so. Service was friendly and pretty fast for just two people in a cart! Keep in mind that if there is a line, it could take some time. Price is very fair for the drinks that they offer! read more

Loved the Nene, delicious and not too sweet with a good coffee taste. Ordered ahead and they had my order ready. Would go again.

Favorite coffee stop. Staff is so amazing, you can tell this is a family business. Their passion for delivering bomb bites, sips, and service is amazing. Since they've transitioned to a brick and mortar, it's a little more crowded, and a longer wait, but it's still so worth it. So stoked they're in town. read more

Stopped by this coffee cart while visiting a friend who lives just a few blocks away, and I'm so glad I did. It's super cute with a welcoming vibe, and the service was excellent--friendly and quick. My drink was absolutely delicious. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town! read more

Such a cute spot with the most delicious coffee I've had yet on the island. Worth a stop!

I am a coffee connoisseur and Blue Bird knows what they are doing!! The incredible smell walking up to the cute little truck was the first sign that I found a great spot.

Blue Bird Coffee in Līhuʻe is my favorite coffee shop, and it just keeps getting better. The coffee is super yummy, smooth, and full of flavor, and you can tell a lot of care goes into every cup. It's the kind of place where you look forward to your coffee, not just grab it and go. What makes it even more special is the welcoming vibe and the friendly staff who always make you feel like you're among friends. My newest addition to the routine is stopping by even more often because it's such a feel-good place to start the day. Whether you're a local or just visiting, Blue Bird Coffee is a must-stop if you love great coffee (the best on Kauai) and a warm, personal atmosphere. read more

This place is right down the road from where we stay, and I wish we went sooner in our trip because this coffee was delicious!!! The service was prompt and all the workers were friendly! If we weren't on the go, this would've been a great place to sit and enjoy our coffee, plenty of seating! read more

Had the best experience at this cute little coffee truck! Their coffee drinks were the absolute best. I got the Elepaio and a coconut muffin. The whole menu is vegan and a great find on the island. MUST visit!! The barista ladies were super friendly and welcoming. When I asked them to check if the muffins have eggs, they were so helpful and called the baker to check about that immediately. The muffins were vegan and the coconut muffin with choco drizzle was absolutely delicious! read more

Stopped by for a morning drink on our way out West. Very cute little stand with friendly people. There's a small farmer stand next door, and both have constant traffic that speaks for itself. Got the Apapane that is both beautiful and delicious. Didn't think strawberry and matcha would be such a good combination. Park on the street and stay out of private driveways. Absolutely recommend this stop if you're in the area! read more

Best coffee around, good food and staff always welcoming feeling the second you walk in

I decided to try this new, locally owned coffee shop--unfortunately, it turned out to be a bad idea. While the crowd didn't bother me, the lack of urgency did. There was no push to take orders or prepare beverages efficiently. Waiting twenty minutes for drinks is simply too long, especially when the staff behind the counter seemed more focused on chatting with each other than fulfilling orders. And to top it off, the beverages were just okay--nothing to get excited over. read more

Finally had time to try this coffee truck... Amazing!! And their cornbread muffin??!! Let me tell you what!! Go try it you won't regret it! The owners are super friendly with an adorable cafe truck!
