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!

Looks kind of dark green.

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!

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

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.

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!

Found this little gem today and was pleasantly surprised. I loved the ambiance of the café, and the vintage matcha was a delight. The service was wonderful, and I'm already looking forward to returning. It's a great place to relax, focus, or simply get some work done.

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.

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!

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.

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!

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.

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!

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.

Hello Again is a cute little spot in Chinatown that's perfect for a quick matcha pick-me-up,…read morewhether you need to get some work done or just relax after strolling the neighborhood. They have small tables and cubicle-style setups with charging ports, so it's easy to settle in, sip, and work if you want. I came mainly to unwind and try a few of their matcha drinks. The banana bread latte is one I personally like, and the haupia matcha has a nice coconut kick. The ube matcha latte was just okay--the matcha overpowered the ube and the flavor kind of drifted. Not sure if the powder was a bit heavy that day or if the water temperature played a role, but I wouldn't order that one again. There are still other flavors I haven't tried, plus milk alternatives like oat milk available. A fun touch is the cameras they place on the tables so you can snap photos of your drink, yourself, friends, or whatever. Just know they may post some of the pics on their social media from time to time--it's a cute way to bring the community together. Hours are short, so check their socials before heading over. Overall, I love the aesthetic of the café and the matcha is decent for a quick fix. I'd definitely come back.

I love the vibes from this place, vibrant colors and very much sun-kissed energy. I see this business is marked as temp closed -- it is very much open lol.

Super late review -…read more I'm sad. I really wanted to love this place but I just couldn't. I don't want to be that person when this place has an overall rating of 4.5 but this is just my honest opinion. I got the blue dream and yes it was very ascetically pleasing, but it was just too icy. Before coming to this place i read a couple of reviews that also said the same thing and i didn't understand what that meant, but now I do. There are a lot of flavorless, just regular, small shards of ice in the bowl. On top of that, the moment I received my bowl, it was already borderline melted. So that got me thinking, how can it be melted and icy at the same time? The only explanation that I can think of is just ice additive/fillers. It's not pure cold acai or whatever is in the bowl you choose, but there's a mixture of ice in it too. Yes I understand, it's Waikiki, everything is more expensive, but the added topping prices on top of the already expensive bowl prices just don't make sense. You want a beautiful looking bowl with a lot of different toppings, yet some toppings can go up to 1 dollar PER topping. I don't know if I've just been spoiled by a couple places in SoCal, but at those places they have unlimited toppings and those bowls are the best that there is. I'm not bringing any bias from other locations, but this is just an honest review based on my experience today.
