Grilled ham and cheese with an iced americano
Brennan H.

Came here as some friends suggested it. It's a small shop with an area across to eat at. I was able to order quickly and food took about 10 min to come out. I ordered the grilled ham and cheese on sourdough. It comes with chips and tomato soup. The grilled ham and cheese was pretty standard and came with a side of mayo and tiny pickle slices. I enjoyed it. The tomato soup was flavorful and had some pasta inside it, which was a nice surprise. The meal also came with a bag of chips which was a nice touch. A full meal for $15! I ordered an iced americano and it was smooth. The coffee was good. I'll be back the next time i'm looking for some caffeine or a quick bite for lunch!

Always very kind and helpful. I'm in love with the lavender chai and the cookies. The cafe in general is so cute

I have come to Cafe Daisy a few times this past year. Overall pretty quick service, the drinks taste good, but food leaves something to be desired. A little costly for what you get but you are also paying for the atmosphere, which is mostly the building not the cafe itself. Decided to finally write a review as my latest experience was very underwhelming and likely my last visit since there are so many options downtown. The prices on the board do not match what you pay, I never noticed this before as I often don't take a receipt and just tap. Due to sensitive teeth and excess condensation leaving a mess I always do less ice. Places sometimes charge fees for less ice due to using more product or time to prepare. The "less ice" extremely nominal and the little excess product is not worth 52 cents, nor was there signage or did they verbally say anything when requested. I have no idea if they have always charged me this. Transparency is important to me. Yes it's my fault for not watching the register tally, or always requesting a receipt and reviewing, but good customer service includes informing people of extra charges and charging people what you advertise.

Parking  lot via Adams Ln, under Finance Factors Ctr. I don't know what the cost is w/ validation, the staff at the Cafe didn't know on Sun.

Nice staff, nice seating area, a/c, fast WiFi, no outlets (from what I can see). A bit expensive food but good quality. Parking via underground via Adams Lane, they provide validation. $1/hour with a maximum of 2 hours.

I go out of my way to drive into town for this. Located in the Residences apartment at Bishops, just buzz in and the security will gladly direct you to the cafe. Good drinks and food. It's never busy, no line when I go (after morning rush). There's plenty of seating and low lighting and not an oversaturated coffee shop, making it the perfect place for study sessions or coffee dates. I appreciate the jazz music-- it's relaxing but mentally stimulating at the same time.

Cafe Daisy is such a cozy spot! The food is really good--simple but flavorful, and it always feels fresh. What I love most is that it's a comfortable place to hang out; they have good Wi-Fi, so it's perfect if you want to study, get some work done, or just chill with coffee. The vibe is relaxed and welcoming, definitely one of those cafés you can stay at for hours.

Egg salad croissant with a side of tomato soup with mozzarella: 4/5 stars
Aaliyah H.

A cute little cafe tucked away and hidden in a residential building in the middle of downtown. I was recommended Cafe Daisy by my coworker who also likes to come here for their drinks and sandwiches. I've been here twice, months apart since I don't get sent to work in downtown often. Overall it's a cheaper alternative and (from what I've noticed) one of the only cafes with a clean sitting/eating/studying area in the business district. I tried the chicken salad sandwich which was very unique considering the surrounding food vendors. I loved the light, but filling sandwich. The toasted bread adds a great crunchy texture to the salad; 10/10 recommend. Most recently, I tried their egg salad croissant and the tomato soup. I wanted to try the egg salad, but since it was cold I wanted something warm. The egg salad was okay, needed more pepper and seasoning, but I appreciated the generous helping and the price for it was fair. The tomato soup left me wanting more. Maybe it's because I didn't get a grilled cheese to go with it but I decided to just take some bites of the soup with the mozzarella topping and save the rest for my husband. Employees are nice and the little sitting area is a great break from the downtown Honolulu surroundings. Nothing too extravagant, just simple. I would definitely come back for the chicken salad sandwich, but not the tomato soup.

Enter this building. Security will buzz the door open for you.

Good things come to those who wait. I only wish there were more people here specifically waiting…read morefor the coffee because it was absolutely delicious! Sadly, it seemed more folks were there for the pastries though. First off, I'm surprised I found such a fabulous cup of coffee in what feels like the epicenter of tourist life on this island. While visiting another island nearly establishment had signage stating they served Kona and/or Hawaiian coffee, but nearly every establishment's coffee was absolutely awful. Seeing the location I fully expected them to phone in the coffee, but it's clear that coffee comes first here, even if many of the guests are trying to get pastries! You'll be shocked by the line, but just know the staff is efficient and it moves fast. They offer a variety of their own locally roasted beans here, with options for batch brew, espresso drinks and even pour overs (impressive considering the volume of customers). The coffees are well described and the baristas have the additional knowledge you may be seeking when you order, and all in all this went as quickly as I could have expected. Truly, the coffee was delightful, and the fact I was drinking a hot drink on an extremely hot day didn't even phase me. I wanted so badly to bring home a bag of each one, but given that everything is more expensive in Hawaii, these were all 4x the price of the specialty coffee I buy on the mainland and I just couldn't make it happen. What will happen is me telling everyone to visit this shop when they're in Hawaii because it is 100% worth it. Won't you consider opening one in Reno NV?

Long line, oven was broken, so only coffee and desserts available…read more Ordered a "Kona" coffee for $5. Quite frankly it's one of the worst cups of coffee I had. Watery, flavorless. This can't be Kona coffee, and if it was, they don't know how to brew it. Terribly horrible, really expensive coffee. Don't bother.

When I visit a new coffee shop, I always make sure there's adequate parking, seating, WiFi (if I'm…read moregonna do work), and a bathroom. Bluetree has become one of my top coffee shops in town for checking all of these boxes! There's parking in their structure (scan QR code in the cafe to register your license plate #), plenty of seating inside (upstairs/downstairs), and WiFi if you plan on doing work. My go-to drink as of recently has been their Kulolo Crunch Latte. I also loved their Coconut Cloud Matcha -- they use Wai Koko coconut water! For the most part, people in the shop are doing work and being productive so it's not too overstimulating like many coffee shops I've been to. If you're looking for just a chill place to grab a coffee or matcha and lock in, I'd recommend checking out Bluetree in Kaka'ako!

Parking: depends on the day & time you go but they do have a pay parking garage right across the street or if you get lucky with street parking but you also have to pay. Service: when I walked in it looked just like a mainland coffee shops I've been too. Pretty cool & clean inside. They do have an upstairs sitting. So of course I got the "KULOLO CRUNCH LATTE" but sad to say ima have to give this a 4/10. It just tasted like a regular coffee with crunch. I really tried hard to get that taste of the kulolo but I didn't. I also let my mom & daughter try & they didn't taste any kulolo.

Plantoem offers a relaxing ambiance upon entrance. Navigate the jungle of plants to access the cafe counter. I requested the Yerba Mate which is only available for in-house. A container with filtered straw was provided alongside a thermal carafe...there was enough hot water for 2.5 servings. The barista was a bit bemused when I ( humorously ) mentioned I swallowed some sediment from the straw...not being used to drinking yerba mate in this traditional way. I felt a little less of a gringo after that beverage. The main dining area is to the left. A nook to the back of the counter is a laptop/device free zone...and I sat in that hideaway...perused a book on interior design ( a few books are available) ...and enjoyed the yerba mate.

There's also a decent amount of seating to hang out or work at. Service was fine. I ordered at the register, and she made my drink immediately. I was intrigued by their Haupia Matcha Latte. I love all things Haupia, so it seemed like the perfect match. I got the Haupia Matcha Latte with Oat Milk, and it was superb. I loved how creamy it was, how the sweetness of the haupia shone, but the earthiness of the matcha was still there. I'd definitely recommend this drink and am curious about their others.
