Craving coffee while on vacation. We missed island coffee and fortunately discovered Honolulu coffee. The shop is an open air laid back place. I had a latte while the wife had a mocha. My coffee was rich and smooth. It wasn't pipping hot which I prefer for better coffee. My wife's mocha was good. I don't prefer sweet coffee drinks but it was more mocha tasting than sweet. The almond croissant was good and fresh. Overall, I enjoy my time here.
I frequently come to Vancouver as much as I can. This place is my go to for coffee since it's a very short walk from my hotel. Ambiance is always relaxed and enjoy a good cup of coffee. Service is excellent and good place to hangout.
Honolulu Coffee always offers unique and delicious limited items for the Hot Chocolate Festival. This time, I revisited for their 2025 festival special. #093 - Kim's Berry A vegan hot chocolate crafted with rich 70% dark chocolate, creamy oat milk, aromatic strawberry, and fermented Korean gochujang, adding a subtle spice. Paired with a delectable vegan strawberry cookie. This one is the best! First, I could taste the whipped cream on top, which was slightly firmer than other shops'--just how I like it. The freeze-dried strawberry crunch on top was a good match. The hot chocolate itself was perfectly creamy and sweet, with a subtle gochujang spice that wasn't overpowering--just perfect again. It was very delicious! The presentation was so pretty--definitely eye-catching on Instagram. The cookie was good, too! I always enjoy Honolulu Coffee's limited item ideas and unique ingredients. They also offer a variety of regular drinks and baked goods. The ambience is very cozy--perfect for meeting friends or simply enjoying a drink and some food.
I was in need of an afternoon pick me up, so I stopped here because of the high reviews. I ordered a matcha latte and loved how strong the matcha flavor was in it. I'm also a sucker for aesthetic coffee so I appreciated the latte art on it as well. With how strong the matcha flavor was, I expected to be decently caffeinated, however, unfortunately, I felt like the drink barely woke me up. Overall, I'd give taste and aesthetics a 10/10, however, if you're looking to actually be caffeinated, I'd pass on this. The coffee itself is actually pretty large and very aesthetic! I like how bright everything was and the Hawaii theme that they had going on. The baristas here were friendly and our drinks came out pretty quickly. There was plenty of seating when I went and I think that this would be a great place to study or catch up with a friend.
The iced Hawaiian latte tasted like regular iced coffee with a hint of hazelnut. It needed more hazelnut flavour and it was too sweet for me. The matcha latte was good but nothing stood out in particular. The macaron was not good (it was dry) and would not order again. The cafe interior was very aesthetic and reminded us of the Honolulu coffee in Hawaii, there was space to sit and enjoy your drinks. The space is pretty small so we had to wait for seats. They also had a variety of crossiants that looked really good, would go back to try the pastries next time.
I've had Honolulu Cafe while I was in Oahu, so I was surprised to see there was one in BC when I was looking for some matcha! It was very busy. The line moved fast to order, but the wait time was maybe about 10-15 which wasn't terrible. It was fairly quiet inside when we went, we were there around 10 am or so. My matcha tasted great! Good ratio of matcha to milk and not too frothy. I was quite satisfied, I'd been looking for matcha! I wish they had the menu items like poke bowls like on the island, but that's just a personal wish :)
Disappointing that today is not my day for coffee. I'm also quite disappointed that service was just barely a sliver above okay. I ordered 2 iced Hawaiian lattes (one with oat milk and one regular), and a Hawaiian cream cold brew. The cold brew was extremely sour, and not what I expected. I hate asking for a redo, but I honestly feel most places would offer to make a different drink for me, but the baristas only offered to add more cream to the cold brew. (No cream will really fix sour in my opinion.) That was a half attempt on their part to make it right. I went ahead and ordered a Hawaiian latte with oat milk and felt this still missed the mark. I took a picture of my friend's Hawaiian latte with oat milk compared to mine. As seen in the image, the colors are different despite being the same drink. There isn't consistency. In the end, one of the baristas did add an extra shot of espresso for me free of charge, but by then, I felt my impression was already colored after having purchased a total of 4 drinks. The place was clean, but I don't see myself coming back.
Coffee bar, not located in a high traffic area, but very busy on a Sunday afternoon, so people are coming here to hang out. It is located within downtown Vancouver, and was within walking distance of our hotel. It has very comfortable seating throughout, and there was a wide variety of ages and ethnicity hanging out. There were only two baristas working, so waiting was mandatory, but one of them prepared my wife's Hawaiian Latte ($6.30) really quickly once the order was placed. Hawaiian = macadamia nut coffee with coconut milk. she really liked it. Unfortunately for me, the free wi-fi refused to work, no matter what I tried. They do sell 100% Kona coffee at the expected high prices.
Ube Cream Cheese Muffin is a must try. Delicious and beautiful! The service was warm & friendly. It was especially convenient and close to the Sheraton where we were staying.
What a treat to get a piece of Hawaii in Vancouver. They had local flavors and had the Hawaiian vibes. With delightful pastries, small bites, coffee and drinks for all. The place was spacious and clean. Where everywhere had long lanes in the rain they were hustling slinging orders with minimal turnover time. This was perfect for my morning walk, hungry and cold. All the details in the drinks to the cups were absolutely adorable.
Nice big spacious coffee shop in the heart of downtonwn. Parking here sucks unfortunately. The place looks pretty modern, and has a nice tropical theme thanks to some murals on the wall. Staff are friendly. The coffee is pretty tasty. Not sure how authentic their coffee is, but it's decent.
What festive and summer vibe-ey coffee shop in the heart of the city. Walking in, you'll immediately all the great things they have to offer coffee goers: plenty of seating, some even with outlets and plexi glass partitions; food, ranging from pastries to savory croissant sandwiches; merch and coffee beans to-go. The place smelled delish, almost as if the aroma of pizza was in the air. Was it the savory sandwiches or perhaps a nearby pizza shop? I'll never know. But beware, you may want pizza on your way out. I was there for about an hour to handle work calls and sip on a matcha latte and also grab an almond milk latte to go. Additional pros: They have a punch card system; after your 10th drink purchase, you can redeem a $6 bev of choice. Only con: The guest internet was very wonky for me. After a few times that I lost connect, I packed up my bags and went back to my hotel.
This was a quick walk from my hotel and I ordered the mushroom breakfast sandwich. I don't think they were made to order, rather they were premade and heated up. It came out pipping hot. The bread was a little stale, but the eggs, mushroom, and cheese were fine (would've liked a little more egg though). The outdoor space is quite lovely. read more

Cute, island-theme coffee shop in downtown! I stopped by before taking the SkyTrain back to the airport since it was right by the hotel I was staying at. The place is tucked inside a small plaza. I ordered the seasonal Matcha Lilikoi Cream Latte, bacon cheddar scone, and guava bread. Service was nice and attentive. The whipped cream of the latte definitely made it! I think most of its flavor was lilikoi dominated as opposed to matcha. The drink itself was alright The bacon cheese scone was decent. The guava bread was my favorite thing I ordered! The actual flavor of guava really came through in the bread. It was so tasty A cute spot with a big space to chat or work! (For the maximum of two hours though!) read more
Honolulu Coffee has the perfect lofi coffee shop vibe. There's chairs and benches of all kinds, a long communal table, and large windows to lounge by, rain or shine. The Hawaiian latte is delicious and you can absolutely taste the macadamia nuts. Whole beans are sold on a shelf next to the register in case you want to brew it at home. The service is speedy and friendly, even during a morning rush, and there's tons of seating if you'd prefer not to stand while waiting for your order. read more
I got to check this place out last week on our trip to Vancouver! The shop itself was very clean and cozy. Walking in, they were pretty busy with lots of people sitting and hanging out. Ordering was quick and easy. The line moved quickly and we didn't wait long for our drinks and food. I ordered a triple vanilla oat milk latte! I loved being able to taste the Kona coffee in it. My latte wasn't very sweet, which was a pleasant surprise because I came here excited to try Kona espresso. I felt that it was fairly priced, and I'd absolutely come back on our next Vancouver trip. read more

Spicy hot chocolate? Yes, please! @honolulucoffeeyvr is back with their Vancouver Hot Chocolate Festival creations, and this iconic cafe did not disappoint! Kim's Berry - A spicy gochujang strawberry hot chocolate with oat milk & 70% dark chocolate Floral Glow - A citrus guava hot chocolate that's like biting into a juicy chocolate orange Both are served with the softest vegan strawberry & orange almond cookies for the ultimate dunking experience! My personal fav was the Kim's Berry which was so unexpected! The sweet strawberry notes ended with a small kick of heat that was just perfect. read more

Cute place with great coffee and açaí bowls. Pastries are a little dry and a bit mid, but overall it's a nice place. Love that you can get a good Kona roast here. read more
Lovely spacious coffee shop with Hawaiian vibes. Got an iced americano and latte for my friend, and it was nutty and very much to my liking. Felt like I was in Hawaii for sure. They had lots of yummy sweet options as well and staff were all very friendly. read more
honolulu coffee, located at nelson square, at 888 nelson street g1, is a vibrant and cozy café with a hawaiian theme. the interior features a mural on the wall with palm trees, a sunset, and the phrase "brewed with aloha" in large letters, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. the café is quite spacious, with tables and chairs arranged to create a lively and social environment. the seating area is comfortable and casual, encouraging relaxation and conversation among patrons. the lighting is warm and inviting, with hanging pendant lights adding to the cozy ambiance. plants and natural elements, like the stone column, enhance the space with greenery and freshness. this café offers a charming and relaxed environment, perfect for enjoying a cup of kona coffee with pastries and sweets or even a pale ale, while soaking in the pleasant surroundings. during my visit, i had the hawaiian iced latte with oat milk. it was a delightful treat, perfectly balancing the rich flavours of macadamia and coconut with the smooth creaminess of oat milk, making it a refreshing and indulgent drink. read more
3.5 stars - cold brew coffee we got was still just ok after it was tweaked a bit. The servers were friendly but one of them was super loud, even as she was cleaning the tables; I thought someone was trying to deliberately smash the cups and plates. Location near court. Shop is pretty large with nice decor and plentiful seating. read more
Absolutely love the vibes here. Came twice on back to back days during my visit to Vancouver and it's such a nice place to start your day off. On the first day my friends and I came, I ordered the Hawaiian latte which was delicious. I loved the subtle hint of coconut while not being too sweet or overbearing... I had to come back for it a second time. My friends all said the food and drinks they got were good too. Unfortunately the next day, there were 2 workers that tarnished both mine and my friends' experience, as the entire visit was totally different from the previous day. They were very obviously in a huge rush despite there being an average-sized line. Cashier was pretty cold and the barista got two of my friend's orders wrong.. when it was brought to her attention, she tried to convince them to still take it, admitting that they're in a rush. The barista had also clearly rushed to make the drinks, as we all noticed that the Hawaiian latte tasted completely different from the previous day... lacking the coconutty flavours and tasting like a regular latte. For a third day, my friend returned and noted that he looked to see who was working before ordering. Since the workers were different, it was terrific. I won't let that bad experience from 2 individuals spoil this review of the place as a whole, because the atmosphere and their drinks/food is amazing. Overall highly recommend for cute and relaxing cafe vibes. read more
full of everyone working on their laptops or just having a quick chat, Hawaiian aesthetic is on point, and plenty of seating all around! ordered the hot macadamia nut coffee and iced matcha coconut drink (limited to spring time only) and honestly not bad at all! staff is really nice, wifi available, and bathrooms are clean af read more
On my Vancouver Bucket List of places to visit I would like to have 1 of EVERYTHING! I ordered a Hawaiian Latte with 1 % milk and a breakfast sandwich. The coffee and sandwich tasted delicious. Will be visiting everyday unitI leave. read more
Hawaiian foam cold brew for the win! I came in for a hot drink thanks to all the beautifully presented pics of fancy lattes and had to try one but on the counter I saw a special Hawaiian foam cold brew and caved for Hawaiian foam. It had a slight coconut heavier milk taste that was delicious with this blend. The coffee flavor is delicious and I didn't add any sweetness to this drink because I wanted to really test the flavor and I actually loved it just like that. There are syrups and sugars on the side though if you'd like some. I really liked there beach vibe and all of their seating around gives you plenty of options to either sit alone or with friends in cozy spots. They have restroooms, Wi-Fi, and a very friendly team so I hung out for some time getting some social media scrolling done and had a great time. read more

I was surprised to see a Honolulu Coffee in Vancouver. I wish they had locations in mainland U.S. I really miss the Hawaiian latte I had in Maui back in February. I decided to pop in after my workout and grabbed an iced Hawaiian soy latte with lilikoi mango cruffin. The cruffin was ok but the drinks are really where it's at. So glad I was able to stop in a grab a cup of Hawaiian latte during my stay in Vancouver. read more
Absolutely love this place. It is such a delight to sit and enjoy your coffee (or tea) with some DELISH pastries or açaí bowl (I couldn't decide so I ordered everything). They do have seasonal items which are all amazing. The açaí bowl was my favorite. So many delicious toppings. The latte's are my favorite, they always taste so refreshing and not at all like cheap coffee. read more
