    Best spot for working remotely or studying in Maui. They have ample outlets, WiFi, and food/coffee to keep you fueled. Friendly service, bright welcoming space.

    Came here because it as waking distance from my Airbnb. It's perfectly placed across from a gym if you need a shake after. Oatmeal looks amazing but it was just ok It felt like the peanut butter and cinnamon dominated the taste but it was good. A ton of fruits and nuts in it. Filling though definitely a great start to the day A good amount of people inside but the food and shakes came out quick. Plenty of seating inside and out. A whole section of wellness drinks to have. All wk i was driving to a natural foods place 10 mins away when i could've walked here

    Cute cafe

    Cute coffee place! We usually come here on Sundays after 12 for a late breakfast. The Egg Sandwich is so yummy! My favorite. They also have a variety of croissants and pastries. My go to is Lilikoi. I ask for it warmed up. They have good Mochas and Matcha Green Tea hot or cold. My son likes the Might Manny Protein Shake. Seating available inside or outside. Nice place to enjoy your Sunday morning.

    Great experience at Java Cafe! My daughter had the smoked salmon bagel and absolutely loved it. The matcha was on point too. We'll definitely be back!

    Came here twice while on vacation. The regular coffee here is really good. We also got a croissant sandwich one day and they presented it really nicely. Service is not very cheery but not rude. It's pretty quiet and they didn't seem busy on either morning. There are plenty of places to sit. It's clean and cute and they have a lot of yummy looking treats in here.

    Great drink and food options. Cute little cafe with space to get some studying or work done as well. They were so patient and made great suggestions. Not photographed is one of the best breakfast sandwiches I had while in Maui!

    Lilikoi croissant and Macademia Nut Ice Latte

    This place was the first stop for coffee the morning after arrival. We walkes there early just as they opened. Nice and bright with plenty of seatings. I got an iced macadamia latte. But the pastry display caught my eye. I got the passion fruit croissant and it was fluffy inside and flaky. There was also adequate filling as well. I was expecting a stale pastry but this was beyond my expectations. They get them from a local bakery . I went back in to get a nutella croissant and it had lotis nutella and a ferrero chocolate on it. I will be back to get another a hot drink with another pastry.

    My d was getting her acai bowl from 2 stores down. The rest of us need some caffeine. This place looks clean and nice. Have indoor and outdoor seating area. Plenty of free parking. They also serve pastries and some breakfast sandwiches. I just ordered my latte with oat milk. The ppl is not the friendliest. But ok.

    Let's get into it! So we came here twice during our stay in Maui- the atmosphere top tear sit outside it's beautiful. They do have WiFi. We got the caprese sandwhich and I added bacon and eggs. An iced matcha! Baby get into it! Then it came with flower petals on it. Service was good. Pick up your dishes and put them away when you leave- and of course don't feed the chickens

    Salmon Freshness Toast - August 2024
    Candace C.

    Cute local cafe/coffee shop. I got the Irish crème breve and the salmon freshness toast and the toast was AMAZING. Beautiful presentation and taste with seasoning. My coffee was strong and service was pretty quick. We'd come back. It's a little warm inside but they have fans going and there are a few tables outside too.

    Passion fruit croissant
    Liz T.

    Do me a favor and try the Lilikoi (passion fruit ) croissant, the filling is very generous, and the thing is humongous. A bit pricey, but worth every penny. They sometimes have discounted pastry as well, so if you can snatch one do it ! Coffee was hot and good , this place gets busy quick.

    Avocado toast

    This place is amazing. I have been trying to find a simple, healthy breakfast, and I finally found it here. I ordered an avocado toast and it was delicious. This place is very clean, pleasant, and very enjoyable. If you are looking for a healthy, high-quality breakfast, I highly recommend this place.

The green bean fries are to die for and this is where I hated that I had to stand in line for an additional order :( My kiddos had a blast naming the neighborhood chickens. I suspect those chickens were disappointed that we had no crumbs to spare for them!

Okay, it's minimum of three. Told it would take 10 minutes which was fine since they are made to order. The place is a throwback to better days based on the design of the menu board. When our order came out, I saw auntie throw a spoonful of sugar in the bag. Nice! The order is double bagged to soak up the oil. Gotta rate these as a 3. A bit chewy and not much sugar clingy for some reason. Hubby compared to the ones from Komoda that he prefers. The search goes on for the best malasada!

You can tell they put real care into what they serve, and it shows in every sip. We ordered two lattes, one with brown sugar and one with vanilla, and both were amazing. The flavors were balanced, not overly sweet, and complemented the quality of the espresso perfectly. We also shared a cheese danish that my husband absolutely loved. He said it was one of the best he has ever had, and I have to agree -- buttery, flaky, and so fresh. The shop itself has such a fun, cozy vibe. There's even a swing inside, which adds such a unique and playful touch. It's the kind of place you actually want to hang out in, not just grab a coffee and go. Service was excellent. The barista was super friendly and even made the cutest latte art, which totally made my day. I ordered a 12 oz and loved that it came in a mug, while my husband got a 16 oz to-go. My only wish is that they would offer mugs for the larger sizes too. It would be a nice way to cut down on paper and plastic and make the experience even better. Overall, Akamai Coffee is a gem. Between the amazing drinks, delicious pastries, welcoming atmosphere, and thoughtful service, it's the kind of place you'll want to visit again and again. If you're in Maui, definitely make time to stop by. You won't regret it!

Don't forget they have a seasonal menu on their windows, separate from their regular menu. Staff are friendly and patient. I came twice during our visit because it was convenient especially with the baby in the car. They also have various sizes, not just one size which was nice to control the intake of caffeine for the day. I tried the Road to Hana which was good, on the sweeter side. Then, on the second visit, the server told me that I can get the hot chocolate seasonal flavor as a coffee and make it less sweet - i did that. Both very yummy drinks. On the sweeter side. I did not feel the caffeine as much as I did with Early Bird. I love that they offer drive-thru, though, which was super clutch and the reason for our multiple visits. I tried to go to their Kihei Plaza location, but couldn't figure out how to get to the drive-thru, haha! It's like through a parking lot but there are too many buildings around that I just didn't know where to enter.

We also tried their mango bread which was moist and fruity (no chunks of mango in it though) and the lime pie which was lovely! However, I think the big surprise for me was that the malasadas are smaller than I expected. The first time I had a malasada was at Leonard's in Oahu which are like...the size of your hand. These are more like golf ball sized. They were still excellent but I think that just caught me off guard. But we still enjoyed them!
