UGHHH i really wanted to like this place too. maybe i'm just more sensitive to espresso right now since i'm on my deriod

"Portuguese sausage" and "scone" are not words that one would expect to be placed together…read more Hawaii's favorite breakfast sausage is more often associated with rice and eggs or scrambled into an omelette. But trust me, you must try this scone. And when they ask you if you want it toasted, always say yes. This Portuguese sausage scone is everything. The edges are delightfully crispy and the inside is moist. There's a slight sweetness, which is offset by the saltiness of the little gems of sausage scattered throughout. There's enough butter for richness, but not too much where it feels oily. I dare say it's my favorite scone on island. The drinks are highly recommended too. The lavender honey matcha is delicately floral and the honey adds just the right amount of sweetness. The velvet cream cold brew and honey cinnamon latte are great coffee options. Everything is reasonably priced and high quality. Customer service is wonderful. There seem to be quite of lot of regulars here, which is always a good sign. Parking is a little limited but I've always found a space whenever I've come here. There are a bunch of tables and free WiFi, so it's the perfect spot to get some work or studying done. Skip Starbucks and support local!

I got the guava pitaya smoothie and it was really flavorful and refreshing. My brother got the same thing and enjoyed it as well. His gf got their matcha, and they both tried that and said it was good. Great feedback all around! This smoothie was better than the other smoothie I got elsewhere. If I'm in this area again, I'd try some more stuff from Pai Cafe!

A cozy corner in the heart of Kaimuki :)…read more I happened to find this place when I was searching for cafes around the area, and it did not disappoint. Honey Matcha Latte is my current favorite: just the right balance of matcha, milk and honey :) The vibes are so nice. You'll be greeted by the green green plants (which are actually for sale!), and then grab a drink down the hall. I also like how they have a "Sip & Chill Zone" where no ipads or computer work are allowed, so you can just relax and talk story. This is my favorite spot because I can just do some people watching by the window as I sip my matcha latte. It's a nice place to detach from the hustle even just for a while.

Can't wait to get my favo matcha on the island in December!!

The space is clean and comfortable with couches, tables, small chairs, and counter space for a variety of patrons. I went on a weekday, and it was comfortable and quiet, and there was plenty of space to find a seat. The bathroom was accessible and incredibly clean for a town bathroom. Whether you're studying, hanging out with friends, doing work, or just listening to music as I was; the space is proper, and the coffee is even better. I had chosen a hot chai latte with almond milk for this rainy day and sat near the window to just enjoy the vibes. It was delicious and perfect for the weather. Not too spicy and a great foam on top. Pricing is reasonable, and they even offer food items that you can munch on with your coffee. Perhaps I'll have to try the food during a future visit. The staff was friendly and quick with my order and even brought it to my table after ordering. I never felt rushed at all, and it was nice to have found a comfortable space to enjoy a nice cup during the rainy weather. I'll most certainly be coming back again next time I'm in the area.

I also did not…read morefeel bad drinking it after running because it had so much protein from the tofu which is what it's made out of. The tofu on the bottom made it similar to a coffee jelly drink with tofu as well as the strong hints of black sesame throughout the drink. I highly recommend trying it if you want to drink something that doesn't make you feel guilty after! Also to note I felt so full after drinking this drink LOL! That Tofu packed on a lot of protein and kept me full felt really energized after as well! Their bubble waffle is forever my favorite with a perfect crunchy outer and fluffy inner. I only go here for bubble waffles. Ambiance is so clean, bright, and cute. It definitely reminds me of a cute cafe you'd find in Korea! Definitely stop by :) it's one of my favorite cafes to visit.

The latte was smooth and tasty but not the strongest. I usually need something a little stronger but this got the job done. It still gave us plenty of energy to do some bar hopping and have a small dinner. I think if we didn't have two extremely excellent coffee spots by the hotel, this place would have ranked higher for me. Regardless, it's a great local spot.
