Love the drinks, love the baristas, and the owners are wonderful people. Just one thing. It gets muggy and hot after 30 minutes. Even with the doors wide open and the ceiling fans running, I still end up sweaty and hot. read more

Unassuming coffee shop and furniture shop. They have a small sign outside and relied on street parking. The coffee was really good despite looking like it's mostly milk with the cold brew, it was still very strong tasting. The matcha was also good and you can tell that they don't skimp on using their matcha tea. Their canele was tasty - crunchy on the outside and soft in the inside. While their lox bagel was huge and very filling. Baristas were nice, there are 3 available bathrooms, and their industrial fans helps a lot with air circulation. Overall a great place! read more

Paradise matcha This place is an amazing study spot as it has a TON of chairs and tables as it originally is a furniture store lol. The only thing, if you're going there to study, is the music volume is a little loud. It's not a problem though. It is a cafe. I got the Paradise Matcha which is good. They have specials and they vary monthly so it's nice to check it out. I'm excited for their October special! It wasn't as busy today so I was immediately attended to and my drink was served quick! It's usually a one to two person team so do be patient when it does get busy! read more

The concept of the cafe is unique: a vintage furniture store with "artisan" drinks. The execution, however, was very much lacking. Stepping into the cafe was admittedly cool. But I quickly realized it was actually very dark and dingy, save for the warm lamp light upstairs and the harsh white lights coming from what seemed to be the kitchen. I was very excited to try the food and coffee until my friend and I were greeted by a barista who seemed oddly and unreasonably impatient given the number of customers (or lack thereof). He was also surprisingly rude and wore sunglasses in an already low-light environment, which only added to the odd first impression. When he called my name, he placed a drink on the pickup counter at the same time, so I naturally assumed it was mine. He immediately called me back over and said, "That drink wasn't yours. It was for another customer." I apologized, to which he told me to bring it back so he could dispose of it. It felt incredibly wasteful, especially considering the business promotes sustainability through secondhand furniture. To make things worse, the coffee was flat, the hojicha was underwhelming and watery, and the lox bagel came with nearly a half-inch slab of cream cheese on both halves of the bagel and only a strip or two of salmon. He may as well have handed me the tub of cream cheese. To put a sweet cherry on top, while it's not unusual for a café to be filled with conversation, whoever was in charge of the music had it turned up so loud that no one could comfortably hear each other. Even the group next to us, who had been chatting away, seemed to be competing with the speakers. At that point, we decided to leave because the atmosphere just felt unwelcoming. Seeing as there are plenty of five-star reviews, I imagine the experience depends heavily on who's working that day. All in all, it came across as a very pretentious and overhyped place without the hospitality, warmth, or quality of food and drinks to back it up. And that's coming from someone who rarely leaves negative reviews. read more

What a unique stop for coffee!! A coffee shop housed in a vintage furniture shop. Grab your coffee and have a seat anywhere - and take your seat with you if you really want to!! The place was pretty quiet when we were there but it was a holiday Monday - I think they probably cater to the local businesses which were closed when we visited. Coffee was good! read more

Whole place is cool looking. The barista was nice and said she'll be right with us right when we walked in. Drink took about maybe 10 mins to make and there was one person ahead of us. Was super excited to try the matcha since the photo reviews had super dark green matcha color. However, when I received the vintage matcha lavender drink, it was really sad :( It tasted like milk. Once you take first sip, lavender and rest of drink taste like milk. Inside was really cool and playing chess while we waited was fun. But the drink was very disappointing! read more

More like 3.5 stars. The cafe is a unique concept and I like how they host events as well. I went to a thrifting event where they had a DJ and I loved how they support local vendors and artists. However, I ordered a cat matcha and it was up charged for the event ($15), so I expected that the cat stencil would actually be nice. However, mine turned out to be messed up but the other cat matcha turned out nice, hence I would rate this place a 3.5 stars. They have couches to sit on and the ambience was interesting for sure. Tdlr; they host nice events that make it worth coming to support the community read more

I went here one time and it took them a full hour to make a bagel with cream cheese. One full hour. And no, they were not making it from scratch. When I went up around the 40 minute mark to ask about my bagel, the barista, who was talking on his phone and ignoring me (and wearing sunglasses indoors?) said "yeah we're MAKING it". Okay, you've been putting cream cheese on a bagel for 40 minutes? When it finally came out 20 minutes later, they apologized saying they had "lost my ticket". Okay so you weren't making it! Nice. I'm usually not the type to complain or ask for a refund, but I went to the cashier to ask for one this time given the circumstances. She said "Well do you want another bagel or something?" No!!!! I just waited an hour for one bagel in what world would I want ANOTHER BAGEL ?? They blamed it on having an event happening but the event (~15 people making some sort of crafts) was wrapping up by the time I even ordered my food. It's not like they were busy catering their party, they were just too proud to admit they lost my ticket. Average coffee, extremely below average customer service, and you may never get your bagel. I'll never go here again, and I warn everyone who even briefly mentions this place not to go either. Points for a cool venue/concept. read more

Cafe VNTG is an unassuming coffee shop tucked away in on Waimanu St. behind the BMW dealership on Kapiolani Blvd. I wouldn't have known about this place unless my friend pointed out the small sign and flag outside of the warehouse, so since then, I always wanted to visit. The ambiance is quiet, filled with antiques and vintage furniture. The shop keeper was kind enough to make recommendations for our coffee choices based on our usual preferences. Cafe Cremosa - Caramelo Especiale was an absolute 6/5; imagine a much more airy Dalgona coffee foam, espresso meets sweet caramel and sea salt flakes. Finding a coffee shop thats quiet with a relaxed atmosphere - a rare find nowadays so I low-key wanted to gatekeep BUT had to share with the Yelp community because the coffee was just that awesome. Definitely visit when you can because you won't regret it! read more

What an awesome find! This hidden gem in Kaka'ako is serving up high quality espresso and matcha drinks in a Vintage furniture store. Counter service then find a seat..,.literally anywhere in the store! With several nooks and secret spots to relax and enjoy an amazing espresso! They use Tradition coffee roasters beans which is a major plus in my mind. The hip relaxed vibe of VNTG makes this a great space to spend some time on a Saturday afternoon. read more

This cafe in a vintage furniture shop is quickly becoming my favorite third space. At Cafe VNTG, you can order matcha, coffee, and food and enjoy it on any of their vintage couches, chairs, and tables. There are so many unique pieces including a couch owned by Duke Kahanamoku, the world's largest couch, and so many cool mid-century modern pieces. I tried their paradise matcha and loved their brazilian bites and smoked salmon bagel. There's free wifi making it an awesome spot to bring your laptop and get some work done. Cafe VNTG is dog friendly and they have free parking at the Kaka'ako Commerce Center. read more

Wanted to check this place out given the whole concept of a furniture store with a coffee shop or a coffee shop in a furniture store?! Lots of cool furniture for furniture. We sat and enjoyed our drinks for a few. Service was quick. Daughter on a matcha kick so we got the paradise matcha and maple matcha. Both tasted ok. Parking was difficult to find. read more

Cool coffee spot hidden in Ward area. First furniture/cafe I've come across on island! Furnitures seemed well-priced and the coffee is locally sourced by Tradition Coffee Roasters. Syrups are also locally sourced by Pono. (Support local!) The interior is unlike any other. Tons of places to sit. Saw a couple of people working on their laptops. Others were enjoying light conversations or even shopping for furniture! The reason for the one-star dock has to do with the service. The barista wasn't very friendly. My iced latte was just alright. The latte and service have dissuaded me from visiting anytime soon. Might go back to buy furniture though! Restrooms available. I think WiFi is available too. Check this place out for yourself! read more

Such a cool and unexpected find. This place is a vintage furniture store but also has a little café inside, which makes the whole experience really unique. I ordered the iced matcha and a pão de queijo sampler, and both were delicious. The matcha was smooth, refreshing, and not overly sweet--perfect for walking around and browsing. The pão de queijo sampler was warm, cheesy, and super satisfying with that perfect chewy texture. What really makes the spot special is the atmosphere. You can sip your drink while surrounded by beautiful vintage furniture and décor, which makes it feel cozy and creative at the same time. Definitely a fun place to stop by if you want something a little different from a typical coffee shop. I'd happily come back for the matcha and snacks. read more

Half-vintage wonderland, half-matcha heaven. The matcha is authentic (none of that sugary powder stuff) and the atmosphere is 10/10. It's rare to find a spot that nails the aesthetic without sacrificing the quality of the drinks. It's a living showroom that you can definitely sit down and enjoy. Tucked away in a little warehouse street in Ala Moana, a bit hard to find parking but managed to street park anyway. read more

They charged 5.76 for a Expresso shot . Sign says 5.00 and they charge for water? Nothing on sign says that. If you run a business.update your sign . Cost should be 5 .24 a sorry excuse to run a business cannot add. read more

Tried the Paradise Matcha at VNTG and thought it was good, but nothing particularly memorable. The matcha flavor was pretty light, and I couldn't really taste much of the honey or lilikoi. The café is tucked away inside a vintage furniture store, which gives it a cool and unique vibe. The worker was friendly and had my drink ready within a few minutes. The biggest downside is parking, since there's only limited street parking nearby. I'm not sure I'd go back, but I'm glad I gave it a try! read more

Cafe VNTG - paradise matcha - Cafes Near Me - Urban Honolulu, Hawaii

Funky lil cafe in the auto area of Kakaako. There's a sign outside and two big open doors to guide you in off Waimanu. We walked here but there's limited street parking and a garage apparently off another side street. No AC but overall the air flow was good with open doors and lots of huge fans, we didn't feel hot although it was an overcast day, not sure how it would be in the summer or on a hot day. Menu was interesting featuring coffee, matcha, Brazilian drinks, and baked goods. I tried a Brazilian cold brew which was $8 for 16 oz, a little on the pricier side but it was unique and delicious. The coffee was pretty light and flavored with a little condensed milk and mint, which was so refreshing. A nice offering for the afternoon when I don't want to drink too much caffeine. Service was friendly, only a few customers in front of us and drinks came out within 15 min. They sell little things at the front like ceramics syrups matcha etc. The seating is inside and all over the furniture store. We were careful not to put drinks on wood surfaces. Some areas are better for working on a laptop, others for sitting and lounging with friends. There are a few clean bathrooms available in the back. They played really great music! Some of the furniture was dusty so just be careful. Overall it had a nice chill interesting vibe, the drinks were great, and I'd return as long as it's not too hot out! read more

Cafe VNTG - My Brazilian cold brew - Cafes Near Me - Urban Honolulu, Hawaii

I've had ceremonial grade matcha in a Japanese tea ceremony, years ago; and I am used to drinking quality artisanal coffee. So, I appreciate a cafe that does both well. Matcha Limonada was a bit sour, more than I expected. Their limeade is supposed to be blended with condensed milk but it wasn't sweet at all. Not a bad thing just unexpected. read more

@fortunefoodfinds: "So MATCHA to do, so little time! A Brazilian Cold Brew (house brew with sweetended condensed milk, cinnamon, n' a hint of mint) n' a Paradise Matcha (matcha latte with honey liliko'i syrup n' honey lilikoi cold foam) from Café VNTG in Kaka'ako. Located inside a furniture store, you'll be surprised to find coffee, tea, n' more!" Service: one person taking orders n' making the drinks, two people handling the food Interior: located inside a furniture store, plenty of seating. Can sit on any of the seat items for sale. Exterior: Kaka'ako, has a "coffee shop" sign, the entrance door and/or garage door may be open to make it easier to find. Wait time: 10 mins to place order, 10 mins to receive order Parking: right in front if you're lucky, if not, was told there was roof parking Overall comments: the Brazilian cold brew was nice, bold, n' you can taste the cinnamon n' hints of mint. For the Paradise Matcha, wish the matcha was a lil' more stronger or maybe needed more of it, was on the bland side. Although the lilikoi syrup n' cold foam was good. Will need to try their other matcha drinks to see if it was just a one-off! read more

Cafe VNTG is one of the most unique cafés I've come across in Honolulu. The combination of quality coffee, vintage furniture, and a creative atmosphere makes it feel less like a coffee shop and more like a community space for artists, readers, and creatives. One of my favorite concepts is that the furniture you sit on while enjoying your coffee is also available for purchase. It gives the entire place a warm, curated feeling that stands out from most cafés. There's plenty of seating for larger groups, book clubs, studying, or simply relaxing for a few hours. They also host open mic nights, fashion shows, and other community-centered events that keep the space connected to Honolulu's local arts scene. The staff was incredibly kind, and the overall atmosphere felt welcoming, calm, and creative. You can tell a lot of care was put into building this place. This place is so lovely. I noticed their small collection of books within the vintage library area where people can sit, read, and quietly enjoy the atmosphere. It felt only fitting to add my own work to their collection. I left behind a signed copy of my award-winning book, Purple Rose: The Stars Carry Her Name - Letters from Me to Her, along with a handwritten note for the store. The book is a collection of 33 poetic love letters I wrote to one woman living in Raleigh, North Carolina. Definitely worth visiting if you enjoy coffee shops with personality, culture, and a strong connection to the local creative community.

It was located out-of-the-way where all the auto body shops were but thank God for the sign they put up so I knew I was in the right place! I was impressed that they were able to convert a furniture shop into a cafe. I was also really impressed with the furniture throughout the cafe - a lot of it looked vintage and would be a great addition to someone's home or for decor furnishings. What makes it fun is that all the seating area spread throughout the place is fair game to enjoy your baked goods or drinks. I tried their Vintage Matcha. It was a standard matcha latte with lavender foam. I think I was very bummed out when I didn't realize that the same day I went there in the morning they had a night matcha tasting with live music... like what?? How could I miss that (cries) LOL I hope they do that again! I think this place also has great potential to hold a lot of great events! Will be back to bring my friends! :) read more

Good luck finding this place. But if you do, the coffee is amazing, the service friendly and the atmosphere is unique! Lots of space within the warehouse packed with vintage furniture and you actually sit on the stuff for sale. One recommendation I would have is to turn down the music a little bit. It was literally hard to concentrate on conversation when we were there LOL. read more

I was dog sitting nearby and saw the signs and wanted to stop by. I came by on two separate occasions to try different items, matcha and limonata. I really love Brazilian limeade/lemonade and was excited to see a unique item on the menu that incorporated matcha into the limonata. The menu definitely has a lot of other Brazilian inspired items including pao de queijo and açaí. When I walked in I was greeted by who I think was the owner, very kind, asked what I was trying today. The barista was also very friendly and gave me some recommendations for the first time. During the first visit on a weekday afternoon I wanted to try their lavender matcha. The matcha was good, the lavender was very subtle but a nice compliment to the matcha. My order was ready in less than 5 minutes. The matcha was made on spot and not a mix. The second time I visited was on a Saturday afternoon. When I arrived the barista remembered me, which was nice. He also let me know they were very busy (I think big online order) and the wait would be longer than usual. I appreciate the heads up. I ordered the regular limonata and the matcha limonata. Both were very good and I really liked the unique mix of the matcha with limeade but the wait was about 20-25 minutes. Fortunately the setting is really good and there's some vintage furniture to sit and wait or look around. However I think they could've used an extra hand that day. I would like to return and try the food and the coffee and I wish them the best of luck. read more

Such a fun find in Kakaʻako! Cafe VNTG is the perfect mix of a vintage furniture shop and cozy café -- the whole space is filled with quirky retro pieces that make it feel like you're hanging out in a stylish thrifted living room. Their menu has great matcha and coffee drinks with Brazilian-inspired flavors, plus tasty bites like pão de queijo (Brazilian cheese bread). Yum! The staff were super friendly and gave great recommendations, which made the experience even better. The vibe is trendy but relaxed -- a great place to hang out, catch up with friends, or just enjoy a drink in a cool space. Parking tip: there's street parking across the street from the building. Definitely a spot I'd come back to! read more

This place is a gem, with a little slice of relaxing heaven rolled into one. Parking is a night mare. It's so rare to even get a spot in the back alley. So don't bank on it. Everything is good. Pricey but good. Love all the furniture and beautiful antiques. Their bagels are amazing. This place can fit people, but there are usually only a couple people working, so if you are coming in a large group , it will be hard to eat. There is only a few things on the menu. Which we personally like. The baristas are all so personable and wonderful. I hate to review this place, due to people coming in troves and could totally throw off the vibe. So know when you come in, it's slow paced, their snacks and coffee are all perfected, so it takes a minute. Find a spot and don't be crazy loud. Just relax and be prepared to have a peaceful time. read more

This little hidden gem popped up on my feed and I couldn't resist stopping by! I love trying new things like food, drinks and unique spots... and this one felt like such a fun, random find. I came with my friend, we ordered a few items from the menu. I ordered the Coconut Cloud Matcha Latte I believe, said to be made with coconut milk (on the cloud/cold foam part) but it was accidentally made with whole milk instead. I was a bit disappointed since I don't drink cow's milk and can tell the difference right away. Hopefully, this helps the team avoid mix-ups in the future, as the idea of the drink is still creative and unique. My friend ordered an iced cafe latte with whole milk. Her drink took a bit longer about 20 minutes because of a little mix-up (the barista thought it was supposed to be hot). It wasn't a big deal for us but to save time for future visits, I'd recommend repeating your order clearly just to make sure everything's right. Once her latte arrived, it was ok, classic coffee. The service was warm and friendly and I could see how much heart the team was putting into their work. There were two people helping each other behind the counter. The first steps in running a cafe are never easy but I believe with time, experience and maybe a little extra help, everything will run even smoother. Parking is a little tricky there are "No Parking" signs around the building, so be sure to read carefully and park in the allowed areas to avoid any trouble. We love supporting both big and small businesses, especially in times like these. With its unique location and charm, I hope to see this cafe grow, flourish and become a favorite spot for those who appreciate good drinks and the character of an antique filled space. Mahalo and wishing you all the best on this exciting journey! read more

Refreshing beverage in Kaka'ako, Honolulu, Hawaii... My friend, Irene, has a great eye for New Small Businesses... She spotted Cafe VNTG, looked it up on Instagram, and called to make sure that they were open... I was just worried about parking. On my first visit, I was a creative parker, but took a risk. I moved my car from the questionable space, and returned to Cafe VNTG to semi-block the entrance of the café. It was a weekday when employees from neighboring businesses are parking in the area. Later, I came back on a weekend when there was more street parking. Irene parked in one of the free designated stalls in the Kaka'ako Commerce Center. Go up the spiral driveway on Kawaiaha'o Street and park in stalls #60 A and B and #61 A and B. The environment of the café is unique because it's inside of VNTG furniture store! Customers are encouraged to sit anywhere! I chose the marble table with an orange cushioned chair! The colorful sofas would be too comfortable for me! Service by Alex, the owner, was very welcoming and friendly! His enthusiasm and knowledge are excellent! He let us return with our plates lunches... LOL! I had an Oribe Passion Fruit Black Iced Tea for the first round. It hydrated me with a fresh, crisp, and clean flavor! On my second round, I tried a Guaraná soda... it had a wonderful fruity, peppy taste! We highly recommended Cafe VNTG! It's an open-air ambiance with a gentle, cooling cross-breeze! There's a convenient restroom, too! We thoroughly enjoyed the classy jazz music! Please visit during their Grand Opening on Saturday, July 19, 2025 from 1pm to 4pm! See you there! read more

Very nice to go... Jk but for me it really is as I stumbled upon this spot as I'm always in the area and love to seek new places and this fun spot sells unique items as well as the vibe in the Kaka'ako area is quite industrial and artsy here at Café VNTG it's like you're in another era with vintage items on consignment is found here and you can find them on Waimanu St part of Kaka'ako Commerce Center behind BMW of Honolulu it's easy to miss if you don't know just look for the feather flag to wave you down. You can certainly park right in front of the biz the owner Alex is just amazing and very welcoming and don't be afraid if furniture is the only thing you see just walk in and you'll see the cafe amongst the many furniture which are all available and is a conversation piece as Alex will tell you all about it is so fascinating. Using local sourced items like Oribe teas, Tradition coffee and syrups by Pono Potion they don't have just the standard drinks but some specialty drinks as well. My first drink is the Paradise Matcha with Oat milk and sweetened with honey lilikoi syrup is topped with honey lilikoi cold foam and this beautiful drink was very light and delicate though couldn't really taste the lilikoi but thoroughly enjoyed it. We did order another drink after we needed lunch and asked Alex if it was okay to bring outside food which he graciously did...oh my heavens I was so grateful for his kindness as he constantly reminded us to seek out anywhere as these antique whimsical setting is just so fun to browse through but we sat and enjoyed ourselves at a nice table and I enjoyed "Alaea Salt Cold Brew" the second time around and what a light sip no jolt or bitterness so smooth and nice with a hint of salted caramel it was a gentle sip. As his primary biz is the furniture I'm so happy that this cafe came along as well and though the location does make parking an issue finding a space right outside is totally fine and you'll be surprise how you'll get lost in time as sitting on any one of the seat of your choice is something that brings comfort and serenity. Thank you! read more

I went here with my girlfriend after having it recommended to us on Instagram. Needless to say, it was a waste of both our time, money and energy. If you see this cafe's ads on social media DO NOT GO. You will be met by a menu with no sort of continuity, an awful price tag, a complete lack of helpful customer service, and the general "Vibe" of the place fits something out of a fever dream better than a cafe. When we walked in our initial reaction wasn't awful but the second you look at the place a little harder you start to notice the dank, mildewy contents of the store. I understand the fusion idea while a cool and unique set up is executed disgustingly. The furniture is meant to be sat on while eating, leaving it up to the customers and staff to keep them clean, they are not. "Luxury / Designer" Vintage furniture left around to be molded and dirtied with overpriced "Matchas" and "Coffees". After walking past their collection of dust bunnies and sticky upholstery we made it to possibly the most standoff-ish, irritable, and unhelpful barista. Since it was our first time here we had asked him what he recommended and what was in some of the drinks. He scoffed at us, genuinely like a character out of a book. Not only was he short both physically and conversationally and unhelpful he was being rude to his coworkers. He also was wearing sunglasses indoors???? It wasn't even bright in the room, there's no windows or anything, just more "Vintage Lamps" to lighten the place. We ordered a plain matcha, a salmon bagel, and an iced latte. The 3 items we ordered took what felt like half an hour to get finished. There was only one girl ahead of us who's order was smaller than ours. Then we actually got the "Food". The matcha was somehow watery, grainy, and chalky at the same time, we don't even know how he achieved such a disgusting consistency. What was supposed to be a double shot of espresso was so sour and diluted, if he had given me a cup of milk I would've been happier. The person ahead of us who ordered a latte as well had a completely different color than ours. The salmon bagel was $14? and unremarkable. The ratio of salmon to cream cheese was overwhelming, if anything he could've given us the salmon on the side to enjoy . Then we heard the barista's name from a coworker, Kenny. Hopefully when his awful drinks and even worse attitude catch up to him, he will find a job that he is actually good at, far far away from customer service. From the short time we were there he was rude, unhelpful, and made both my girlfriend and I feel like inconveniences. He also kept trying to "flirt?" with the customer ahead of us, bless her heart she was about a whole head taller and looked about a decade younger than him. Finishing off the experience, a man who walked in who we assumed is the owner. My first impression is so odd. I have never seen someone make an entire shift look so uncomfortable than when he walked in. He let his kids scream, play, and cry about anything and everything. One of the baristas had to play nanny and take care of his kids for him. Before we left we left the kids weren't listening to him spurring him to then scream across the cafe for them to come to the back. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Service -10 / 10 Food 4.5 / 10 Drinks -2 / 10 Ambience 1 / 10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ========================================================= TL:DR - The baristas are unwelcoming & can't make a drink, and are unreasonably expensive for the food and service received. The cafe is filthy, smells of mildew, and has a film of stickiness on everything you touch. And good luck with finding parking. ========================================================= read more

Stopped by Cafe VNTG and had a nice experience overall. The space is really cute and aesthetic, and it's a great spot to sit and catch up or get some work done. I tried the matcha and it was a bit bland for my taste, but still fine if you like a lighter flavor. Service was friendly and the vibe was relaxed. I'd come back to try something else next time. read more

I got their hojicha latte and my sister got their matcha. It's ok, nothing super special. But then my sister ordered a cold brew and that was the absolute most sour cold brew I've had in my life. I took a small sip and I couldn't get the flavor out of my mouth. It was rough. I love how much seating there is but there's a certain *dustiness* that comes with being in a warehouse that I wasn't a big fan of, especially with all the older furniture around. The service was okay. There were two of them working but it seemed as though they were backed up with orders. So they were trying their best to catch up. They weren't super rushy or stressed either so it was okay. read more
