On a recent long weekend adventure, we drove south of Kona to check out the coffee and cacao farms. One of our stops was Hale Cocoa, a lovely little cafe. They have a guided tour of the fields from here too but we only stopped in for some shopping and refreshment. They have plenty of free parking on the street and behind the store. Inside is a great selection of all locally grown coffees, chocolate products, seeds, gifts, etc. It's also a full cafe; the one barista gave us each samples of the iced mocha, which was a delightful treat. The staff was welcoming and friendly overall. Prices are reasonable, this is a great place to get natural and delicious souvenirs. They also have restrooms. We highly recommend stopping in!

Hale Cocoa was one of our favorite stops. It's actually the main location for Puna Chocolate Company, and you can really tell they care about what they do. The chocolate and coffee were both amazing, full of flavor and clearly made with a lot of love. What made it even better was how into it the staff were. They walked us through how the cacao is grown and made into chocolate right there on the farm. You don't just taste it, you understand it, which makes it all the more enjoyable. The sipping chocolate is a must. It's rich, creamy, and just hits the spot. I'd honestly go back just for that. If you're in the Kona area, definitely check this place out. It's more than just chocolate, it's a full experience.

This was a hot chocolate that I ordered

I was surprised that this small chocolate cost $5.75. I thought this was a tester cup.

Excellent coffee and accessories. The staff exudes the Aloha spirit! Highly recommend.

Oh Heck Yeah, still our favorite place on the Big Island. The menu tells you everything. We come…read morehere every time we visit and are doing our best to work our way through the menu. This is the roadside restaurant every foodie dreams of opening...but they always fall short. Rebel hits every mark including always having the best service.

Quaint spot with great service, but heavy-handed on the sauces…read more​We stopped by Rebel Kitchen during our trip to Kona. The seating is quaint and personal, and our server was very nice and attentive. The food definitely looked great when it arrived, but the execution missed the mark for us because the flavors were just too overwhelming. ​Cuban Egg Rolls: The presentation was lovely and they looked delicious. However, the mustard drizzled on top was so overpowering that you couldn't really taste anything else inside the roll. ​Pulled Pork Sandwich & Pepperoni Fries: My husband ordered this combo. He really enjoyed the pulled pork sandwich, but the fries were kind of sad. ​Jamaican Jerk Chicken Sandwich: I ordered this, but unfortunately, the jerk sauce was so intense that it completely drowned out the chicken, avocado, and tomato. ​Overall, the atmosphere and service were wonderful, but if the kitchen dialed back the sauces and mustard so you could actually taste the individual ingredients, the food would be fantastic!
