My best friend and I stopped in for a quick bite and coffee and enjoyed everything. We shared the Portuguese sausage sandwich. The smokey romesco was a great touch. We had an iced Mac nut latte and a dirty iced chai. Both were super good. You could tell they were going to be good just by the color! 10/10 recommend Kai Bar and Java Kai next time you are looking for a good coffee spot!
Weird place. We came by, took the menu and once we were ready to order, cashier told us that today they have limited menu only. But she saw that we took full menu right in front of her. Why she didn't say anything? Then she gave us number and said that they will bring food to us. They did, but not the coffee (she didn't say anything about it). Guy who brought food said that coffee is at the corner and he will bring it, but he didn't. As for the food, I didn't expect pesto to be white, but that's fine. It was too much anyway for the toast - too fatty.
Ordered the blended Mac nut latte and iced Mac nut latte, it was delicious it reminded me of Dutch bros macadamia but more flavorful and creamier. Also had their banana bread. Thought it needed to be more moist but it had good flavor . McKenna was the one that helped us at the register and she was great. Really friendly and had a great attitude!the place was very clean. They sold some merchandise also. Will definitely come back when we're in the area
I went here many times during our trip--the food was delicious and the drinks were perfect every time. I really enjoyed the strawberry matcha and the coffee. I tried as many drinks as I could, and every single one was amazing. The Wired Monkey ice-blended drink was definitely my favorite! Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area.
My husband and I stopped in here for breakfast and thought it was super adorable. I love the designs on their cups. The whole vibe is cool. I ordered the surfer girl sandwich and an iced Maui mocha. My husband got the cro-Sean-wich and an iced maple latte. We sat down after ordering and the girl IMMEDIATELY brought out our food. We said it couldn't be ours since we had ordered a minute ago. She said no it is yours and walked away. We looked at the receipt on the box and it had been ordered about 20 minutes earlier. My husband approached them in the kitchen to make sure it was in fact our food. We had also asked for no tomatoes on one and they both came out with tomatoes, so we were fairly certain it wasn't ours. They ended up explaining that someone else had placed an online order and it should've been marked no make but it wasn't so they made it. They had just happened to order the same thing as us without the modifications, so they wanted to give it to us to not waste any food. I have no problem with them giving us this order since I'm all for not wasting food, but I thought it was really weird that this wasn't communicated up front especially since that food had been made 20 minutes prior. We ended up keeping it since it was still warm and we weren't really given an option. My husband LOVED his iced maple latte. I thought the Maui mocha was good. We would definitely go back for the coffee and the food. It felt like we just happened to have a bit of a weird experience with the service.
My favorite cafe of all cafes Ive ever been to. They have the best menu with so many food and drink options you can't go wrong with. During the fall they have a speciality drink menu and I tried their iced rise of the chai which is pumpkin spiced chai with espresso. It's absolutely delicious. Their iced matcha is also tasty (I added their banana breeze syrup). The lava glow smoothie is A1. If you want a savory sandwich get their housemade portuguese sausage and egg sando, it's yummy!! Always great service here and plenty of seating inside and out.
This was our first visit to Kai Bar in Kilauea after having been to the Java Kai and Kai Bar location in Kapa'a on this trip and our previous one in 2016. We loved our experience enough to come here from our condo in Princeville a total of three times, which happened to fill up our punchcard just like our visit in 2016 in Kapa'a. :) The coffee is great, but if you want food, go for the Surfer Girl sandwich, just like just about everyone says. It is likely the best breakfast sandwich I have ever had in my life, and I don't say things like that lightly. So tasty. We used our completed punchcard on one of the expensive smoothies, and we loved it. The service is friendly, and they have a light, bright environment. There's a sufficient number of tables inside and out. If you sit outside, they helpfully provide water squirt bottles so that you can use them to shoo the sometimes aggressive feral chickens away from your table. (We didn't have as much trouble with them here as we did at a restaurant across the street that doesn't have squirt bottles, so perhaps the chickens have learned where they can go and not get "shot." Ha!) Kai Bar isn't cheap (and neither are very many other coffeehouses), but as we can attest, they are worth the visit.
Impressive menu. Unimpressive service and espresso. Looking forward to try the original location. What we got: I got a small iced shark bite and my bf got a breakfast burrito with sausage for $31.51. Even for Kauai, that is an extremely steep price tag for such mediocre - at best - quality. I had quite high expectations since there are multiple locations on the island, but the espresso was so under extracted & the raspberry syrup didn't help the sourness. The burritos had great flavor, but it was soaking in oil that the tortilla had partially fallen apart. We turned the burrito into a bowl, but for 20 something odd dollars...mm..yikes. Atmosphere: Beautiful. Extremely roomy and tastefully designed. Service: It took them longer to make my coffee than a whole burrito. Burrito took about 10-12 minutes which is understandable. However, my latte took nearly 20 whole minutes? There was only one couple who ordered before us and four girls working behind the counter/coffee bar. Four girls - no smiles or greeting by the way.
Great coffee bar near Princeville! We came by for coffee and ended up sharing the breakfast sausage as well. I got a macadamia oat latte while my boyfriend tried the black sesame cold brew special. Both coffees were great and a much needed caffeine boost. The breakfast sandwich sounded really good and we just needed to try the housemade Portuguese sausage. Loved how buttery and light the bun was and the sausage was super flavorful with nuts inside which was a unique addition. It was super yummy and pretty filling even shared between 2 people. Would definitely recommend! read more

Came in excited to try out their coffee and acai bowl! Unfortunately, it was mid. Pretty busy place in a nice plaza. Clean and friendly staff. Acai base was okay... It was heavily loaded with granola which made it hard to get acai on the spoon. For drinks, I got the Maui Mocha, which was disappointing. :( Maybe I should try to order other things next time! read more

Coffee grounds. Who doesn't like a mouthful of coffee grounds with their freshly brewed filter coffee ? The cup of medium roast itself was decent but nothing special. read more
I stopped in here for a little coffee pick-me-up in the afternoon. It was so cute inside and they didn't have a line so I was able to order right away. I decided to get an iced chai latte and it was good! The space was calm and the staff were friendly. read more

Cool little spot! The line was so long we opted to order online and had our food and drinks in 15 minutes. Coffee is amazing, hot tea too. Our food was really, really good--French toast and breakfast burrito. read more
Of the 3 breakfasts I've had so far this week, this place has been the best. As with anything else on this island breakfast was $50. Best option on the North side when everywhere else is $50 too. Service was friendly. Expect food to take a minute if you order a sandwich or burrito. Bakery items looked delicious. Music could be turned down slightly. With the loud people and hard floors and vaulted ceiling it was loud. Sit outside at the tables if you want chill. read more
Great coffee, great breakfast. We sat outside, but they also have tables inside. The place was crowded mid morning. I had the surfer girl sandwich. Scrambled egg, spinach, cheese and bacon jam. So yummy! My husband had the breakfast burrito with Portuguese sausage. He said it's the best thing he has eaten since we've been on the island. read more

10/25/24 So far the best tasting Matcha Latte-rich & earthy, the way it's meant to be I was surprised to know that they have "Cappy Hour" so i decided to try their matcha. It's one of those types of drinks that a shop could either make well or just altogether miss. Additionally, it's served on a porcelain mug--was looking forward to that so I may savor the wonderful beverage. I can proudly announce that Kai Bar delivered!! Somehow when it is served in a proper vessel, it just gives it that extra Oomph. I sipped & savored it & let the flavor wash over me like a comforting embrace. Aahhh, yes! Full-bodied, earthy, wholesome goodness! It definitely hit the spot. The staff are wonderful & welcoming, the ambiance/vibe is nice. It is modern & equipped with wooden chairs & tables indoors. Outdoor seating, white, metal. Restrooms are located outside on each side of the shop, clean. This is one of the coffee shops I love visiting while in Kilauea. Maybe one of these days I will try other menu items-beverage & food, please see posted menu photos. read more
It's a cute cafe nestled in the heart of north Kauai. It's a perfect spot for a coffee pit stop. I got the surfer girl bagel, my husband got the breakfast burrito. I also got the moon flower smoothie. Our drinks came soon but food took 45 mins to arrive. Order and go here for the food only if you have the time to wait. Usually on vacation people are on schedule for activities. read more

Delicious! We weren't planning to go back, but we did. I got the Mac nut latte, I liked it, but my husband got the coconut mocha and I liked that even more which is why we had to go back! Cool interior and friendly baristas. It can take a little while, but they do warn you with a sign on the door. It's worth the wait! read more

Food was amazing. LOVED the coffee! And the service from the staff was friendly. I will absolutely visit again when back to Kauai read more
Best coffee shop we tried during our time in Hawaii. We came for breakfast around 8am. There were some people but the employees were very efficient. The line moved quickly, drinks arrived shortly, and plenty of seating. Our food was delivered to the table quickly as well. There is a huge variety of drinks on the menu, and all our drinks (iced Mac nut latte with oat milk, iced Maui mocha) were amazing. Food was yummy as well, with a good collection of hot sauces available in the self service area. We got the breakfast burrito with Portuguese sausage (taste similar to chorizo), and a croissant sandwich. read more

Java Kai Bar Coffee Roasters offers tasty coffee and bakery items. There is ample interior and exterior seating with small round tables. Our group shared a few bakery delights, general feedback was mixed. The cinnamon bun lacked cinnamon and it was very dry/hard. The black drip coffee was so hot it burnt my sister-in-laws mouth. I enjoyed the muffin I shared with my spouse, my experience was better than others. Overall contemporary decor was good, service staff pleasant and drinks came up quickly. read more

The cashier is friendly and helpful at this location. I asked her to make the mac nut latte sweeter and with more flavor. It hit the spot! The Portuguese sausage & egg sandwich was awesome! So ono! Way more space and less crowded than Kapa'a. read more

Best smoothie on Kauai I'd say! I got the tropical haze. Expensive but worth it! Topped with coconut foam/cream and dusting lihing muy. The smoothie had a wonderful taste of the tropics. Not too sweet either and no stupid apple juice added to it! I could really make out the guava taste and it had a nice tart undertone thanks to the strawberry and pineapple inside! And beautiful presentation read more
This was my go-to coffee shop when I was staying on Kauai. One of the benefits was the fact that they open at 6:00 am which makes it real convenient for the early birds like me! Most coffee shops don't open until 8:00 am on this island! My favorite drink was their mac nut latte. It had just enough fuel to get me through the morning without giving me a major crash later on. It's creamy and super delish! I also tried their cinnamon roll, which I really enjoyed because it didn't have all that gooey frosting on it. In addition to pastries, they also offer breakfast and lunch items, and they also sell some cool merch! Service is attentive and full of aloha! Don't hesitate to stop by for your morning pick-me-up! read more
