Their hours are on the shorter side and they're closed on Sundays, so whenever we actually catch them open, it feels like a special treat. Their little hut sits right in the center of Jack's parking lot, with a cute tented seating area if you want to relax while you wait or enjoy other grindz nearby. The crew at Loke Aloha Coffee is always friendly and helpful - one more reason to support this small local business! Their drink mixes are fun and unique, possibly a little different for some classic coffee drinkers, but I'm pretty sure they can whip up something off-menu if they've got the ingredients. Just ask! Food items are on the sweet/pastry side, so if you're not counting calories and you ain't diabetic, they've also got food for you haha! Hope you love them! :)

This is one of my fav post-workout treats since it's so close to where I do hot yoga…read more I love that these açaí bowls / cups also include chia seed pudding. They even have a matcha chia seed pudding. You can pick from their classic combinations or build your own. I believe that they have an app which makes it really easy to customize, but I've never used it. Even though they are in cups, the large "oak" size is about the same as bowls other places. On top of build your own açaí bowls, they also have smoothies which you can customize. I only wish that they were open earlier, sometimes I take an early morning yoga class before work and wish I could start my day with an oakberry açaí.

When you first enter, you'll see a few chairs and tables where you can enjoy your food. I was disappointed to see that there weren't any smoothies that offered protein powder. You will have to request protein powder and pay extra on top of an already high price. I don't think their prices are reasonable at all. I ordered the Tiger in a medium cup. It was sooo delicious, but they skimp out on ingredients by putting it in a tall cup. Their acai bowls are not served in your average, compostable bowls. They come in cups for beverages which I thought was odd. In my opinion, their prices are not worth it. However it was great to try a new spot !

What I liked about the berry boost bowl is that goji berries brought a crunch and really made up for the granola that wasn't in there. Having chia pudding is way less calories than granola too! 6-7 is "happy hour" so you get $2 off signature bowls. It was great. That store is cute and simple. You can also play board games if you're hanging out. Love that they welcome that

Abundant variety available! Located in Ka Makana Ali'i on the Gen Korean / Papa John Pizza side…read more Small interior that has about four to five tables that can accommodate about four people each. No outdoor seating available. We went in knowing we wanted açaí bowls. They offer signature bowls for those who don't like having to decide on bases, toppings, drizzles, etc. Signature bowls come in two sizes: regular (16oz.) $13.99 and large (24 oz.) $15.99. Whatever bowls give you the freedom to decide on base - bonus base - fresh fruit - super foods - drizzle. These are priced the same but you decide what you do and do not want, which is nice. Mind you, they also offer: toasts, smoothies and drinks such as lemonade, iced blended coffee, matcha, and cold brews. Açaí bowl was a generous portion of base / bonus base / fruit. I appreciate how they chop their fruit into bite size pieces. Idk what it is but I like my fruit in my bowl to be bite size like small easy to eat and chew. Maybe it has to do with base/topping/fruit ratios!? Fruit was fresh too, which for this price point- I'd expect and they delivered. There are many options available which again, for this price point you'd expect, so it's nice to have. The only problem was they were out of Nutella. Like, why? My daughter went a week before writing this review and she said they were out of bananas. In my opinion, banana and Nutella are not items hard to keep in stock! We would visit again. Side note, Monday - Friday 6-7pm they offer $2 off signature bowls!

SWITCH UP THE BDAY CAKE TO A BDAY TRAY!…read more I have been supporting HI Cravings since they were JessDaBest Acai Bowls and it is so cool to see the empire they have become. My daughter is a huge fan of their bowls, so for her 2nd birthday I decided to opt for an acai tray (my first time ordering). The day before my scheduled pick-up date, I was hospitalized switching up lots of the plans we had for my daughter's birthday. I had emailed that night and asked if they were able to write a personalized note from me on a post-it or foil for my daughter to read when it was pick-up on her birthday as I wouldn't be there. They went beyond to decorate and write an actual birthday card for my daughter, which meant the world to me. As for the acai tray... an absolute hit! It was picked up on Monday morning and stored in the freezer until Wednesday night when I returned home. We left it out about 30 min before eating and it was still fresh. It has lasted us multiple desserts and breakfasts. Thank you so much to Brandi for making everything work despite being on vacation and the HI Cravings team for your hard work. Will definitely be ordering again.

It does come as a single link, but it's perfectly portioned for an average breakfast and leaves you feeling full and satisfied without being overly heavy. My husband ordered the country fried chicken and really enjoyed it. The portion size on his plate was especially generous. Of course, we had to try the pancake flight--it was delicious and just the right amount. I love having a variety without feeling overwhelmed. One small note: I ordered a regular drip coffee and found the price a bit steep $5, especially since it only includes one refill--so definitely be sure to ask for it to get your money's worth. Overall, this is a spot we'll absolutely keep coming back to!

When I was handed a bag and asked if I could eat in, one employee looked to the other, who replied "I guess" -- as if my staying was an imposition. I've been sitting here and haven't been offered so much as a glass of water. To top it off, I ordered my eggs over medium and they came out with a fully hard yolk. A small detail, but it matters -- especially when the rest of the experience is already falling short. Hard to recommend when both the service and the food miss the mark.

Overall, you're paying vacation prices, but the food choices are healthy for a lighter lunch or breakfast. Parking is limited to a small lot with many popular shops/businesses.

The granola is also pretty good. There is a faint fridge smell while I'm eating, but I try to overlook it because the sorbet itself is worth it. Their açaí bowl is solid too. That said, the menu is definitely overpriced, and both taste and service can be a hit or miss depending on the day. One more note: I tried the matcha with coconut milk, and it was a total miss. No matcha flavor at all and just not good.

The packaging is really cute and its like they get to enjoy the experience too. Eventually they plan on expanding their menu but for now they have ahi and smelt. They also serve up poke bowls and acai bowls for the humans. LOL. We found a nice shady spot in the park and made a little picnic with the kids. Parking is along the park and should be available for the most part - most people come and go.
