Impossible to forget, but easy to miss. 100% worth the stop! While I'd previously driven past it without noticing, I'm so happy I got to experience Honua's Coffee House. Overall, the staff was awesome, the drinks were delicious and it's great for quick stops and longer meetups alike. The ambience totally fits the vibe of that area- chill, relaxing and welcoming. read more

I have an iced vanilla honey latte and it was delicious. It wasn't very sweet. I need to call and ask the brand of honey and coffee because it was so good. The honey was locally sourced. I literally stopped twice in one day!! read more

PERFECT cup of coffee. We wanted local, and we were certainly in the right place. Friendly service, and he was happy to recommend some local coffee farms to visit as well. read more

Nice little cafe at the southern side. Not the best coffee (latte). Couldn't tell if it was the beans or just too much water for the amount of beans. Either way the flavor was a little weak. Food was great (coffee cake). They have a food truck that we didn't try but seemed to have a good selection read more

we tried the mauna loaded ($7) which was like a girl scout's samoa cookie in a latte. it was coconutty and had a nice espresso base but was really sweet read more

This coffee shop has quickly become one of favorite coffee shops. I love the owners story. I love that this kid created a better life for himself and has a great work ethic. It's easy to support and get behind their dreams. They are the only "local" coffee shop on the west and south side of the island open at 6:30am. They are conveniently located off the highway. Lots of seating. They have game night once in a while. They also made three gallons of hot coffee and let us use their carafes for my brother funeral reception. It's nice to have this service in this small town. We were very grateful. I highly recommend stopping here for your latte, tea and coffee! read more

Great little coffee place great frozen yogurt cool staff and nice vibes also have a great food truck with chicken sandwiches

Correct me if I'm wrong but given its close proximity to Punalu'u Bake Shop, Honua's Coffee House could possibly be the southern most coffee shop in the United States! This humble gem of coffee shop is conveniently located along the side of the Mamalahoa Highway so if you're ever driving along the southern part of the Big Island and on your long way to Hilo or Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, Honua makes for a great pit stop to get your 100% Kona coffee caffeine fix. I got an iced mocha frappe and loved how smooth and perfectly rich it was as well as the cute cup they had my 12 oz serving in. Honua also sells baked goods and candies from local vendors and has this awesome maritime and sea monster art in their indoor lobby that I wish wasn't shut down by covid. Like many businesses in Hawaii, the store is manned by some very friendly and informative folks. read more

Carry out window only, still requires us to wear a mask to order at the outside porch window. I stayed in the car and waited, it's hot and we are outside after all. Ordered a large mango smoothie and a raspberry mocha. It cost a bit over $12. They use soy milk for their mango smoothie, makes it taste odd and not so good to me. The raspberry mocha was ok. Service was ok. Drinks were blah. read more

I would recommend Honua's without a doubt. It was the perfect first stop on my trip. There were many wonderful drink options (I got a happy smoothie with guava juice) and small bakery bites like the tasty vegan lemon cake. The barista was very friendly and made everything to order very very quickly. There are also small artisan items for sale like art, jewelry, clothing, candles in the cafe as well as a large room with games or an outdoor patio. I look forward to coming back again on my trip. read more

Drinks and Baked Goods We started our day early so we could get to as many places on our 2nd day in the Big Island. Half our crew are coffee drinkers and can't function without their cup o' joe's so we stopped by Honua's to grab some coffee drinks, smoothies and some baked goods, their sweet (vegan) treats! The gals were helpful and friendly and cranked out our orders as fast as they could. Drink options offered: coffee, tea, and smoothies. I'm not a coffee drinker but I tried my hubby's mocha blended drink. Yum! I chose a strawberry and lilikoi smoothie instead. They make smoothies with plant based milk and my drink was very good. They have baked goods that are clearly labeled as vegan. I'm not vegan but I have family members that are and the fact that they even have vegan options is great. We sat outside at their outdoor patio while we enjoyed our treats. We even had a little visitor drop by in his green Hawaiian shirt... scroll through my pics and see if you can find the little guy. Honua's occupies an old building and is conveniently located next to a 76 gas station in Na'alehu on Mamalahoa Highway. We drove through lush vegetation and green valleys and hills.

Possibly the best latte I've had on Hawai'i. The Kau espresso they use has way more strength and flavor than any of the Kona ones we tried. They actually make a decaf latte as well - hubs was happy since the place we used to go to stopped carrying it. Lilikoi bar had good flavor but wasn't my fave texture. Five stars anyway because the coffee was just that far above their competition's. read more

Loooove their Kalo Shake! A must try! If you're coming from the Hilo side, they'll be on your left-hand side next to the Naalehu gas station. Parking up-front is limited to 2 stalls, but you'll find additional parking right next door by the gas station. read more

Kona mocha was delicious! Unfortunately can't say the same for blueberry smoothie. It was Apple juice mixed with blueberry, not exactly a smoothie. read more

This place is awesome. I've been coming here since we started staying on the big island. It's clean, the staff is friendly, and the room is huge. The coffee alone was much better than anything I've had so far since I we've been here. It's also conveniently right next to pretty much the only gas station for 30 minutes so you get a store and you know, gas. I got a white chocolate mocha and the lady got a latte with coconut milk. It was delicious. read more

On our way to Volcanoes National park we had finally found and stopped at the only gas station for miles. To our surprise this coffee shop was right next door to the gas station. The cars weren't the only thing needed to be fueled so we ran in to get some coffee! I ordered a basic almond milk latte with no sweetener. Everyone seemed to be happy with their coffee. I will also mention that we thought the coffee was stronger than most places but not at all in a negative way. Cute little place. read more

I bought the kalo shake and the Oreo milkshake. I absolutely loved them and I cant wait to go again.

We stopped here on our way to Green Sand Beach. I love coffee and usually drink four shots of espresso over iced with almond milk at home. So I had to try the Kīlauea Crack (six shots breve) and it was nice and strong. The barista working was very funny and was so excited to hear that I learned about the Kilauea Crack from a YELP review! read more

We were on the way from Green Sand Beach up towards Captain Cook when we were craving some coffee after a nice day on the beach. I'm so glad that we were able to see this coffee shop which is located right on the main road, which I super appreciated. The people working there were so nice and there was a good selection of coffee to choose from. I also liked their pastry selection and I got a lilikoi muffin which was really good. They also had cute local food you could buy with cash and also some souvenir options. Definitely recommend this place if you're craving some coffee! read more

Honua's Coffee House is one of those rare treasures that you fall upon every once in a great while. The love, cheerfulness and sense of friendship everyone radiates just makes you feel like you are at a friend's or relatives home rather than a business. Ala and Nani were the main people we had the pleasure of seeing on a regular basis during our 10 day stay and we didn't miss them once while we were there. They make Honua's a place where you shouldn't just grab a drink and go but rather a place to linger, chat, laugh, and connect. The coffee is fantastic, as well as their other options. They even will work with what they have to make any kind of specialty drink that you may have in mind. The java and the kind-hearted energy made this the perfect pick-me-up every morning before our daily adventures. The only hard part was our last day of being able to see them and saying good bye. Which, by the way, if you have the privilege of staying near here and seeing them for multiple days I would recommend not leaving without a final farewell. My wife and I can't wait until we may have the opportunity to visit Honua's Coffee House and our friends there once again. read more

Stopped in here on whim as we were driving to Volcanos National Park. What a treat!!! Staff is awesome, sweet, and very accommodating. They have all the same stuff that you can get at the "major chain shops" but 1000% better. Stop in here and you won't regret it. Also, add a pin to their map to show where you came from. They actually had a visitor from Antarctica! read more
