    Fresh fruit
    Renata V.

    AMAZING fresh fruit juices and smoothies! We stopped by to get something refreshing before heading out for the day and tried the banana coconut smoothie and the banana mango coconut smoothie. Both were amazing and refreshing! We loved this spot so much we came back a few more times while we were in Kauai. Everyone who works there was so nice and friendly too definitely made our experience even better. Also loved the convenience of where the stand was located there's plenty of parking nearby and benches to enjoy your refreshments!

    Local Honey is the best!

    Lana... I'm giving you 5 BIG Stars for your 50th Review, and let me tell you... You deserved Every. Single. Star. Every trip we come to Kauai, we always plan a day trip to come visit Kapa`a. We like to refer it as the "hippie" part of Kauai and if you've been here, you know exactly what I mean... But you know what, we love it! And this most recent visit, we stuck to our usual M.O. Find a central place to park, walk the streets, look at all the fun shops, grab lunch, maybe even a treat and just enjoy being off the grid away from the resort crowd in Poipu. Being that it was a little more humid this last visit., when we came across Lana's Cafe, we were extremely delighted to enjoy some shaved ice with the fam. This small mom + pop spot is just what Kapa`a needs! I mean c'mon... Beautiful Shaved Ice with optional Tropical Toppings... Fresh-Ingredient Hawaiian-Style Smoothies... Homemade Banana + Mango Bread... And on top of that... A mini fruit stand with local tropical fruit and Kauai honey to peruse and enjoy during your trip. The gentleman who assisted us was very gracious, maybe one of the owners? They do have a few benches on the side of the building for you to sit and enjoy your treat and get out of the sun. Pro Tip: if they have Sugar Loaf Pineapple... Get it! Don't ask, just do it! You can thank me later and then hate me after that... Cause it will ruin all other pineapple you will ever eat again. Yeah, it's that Good! And to Lana... Keep doing what you're doing!

    We stopped by here once while we were out shopping because my youngest wanted to try coconut water from a coconut. She said it was good, but we ended up sharing it, which was fine by me! I loved it! Nice and chilled, they didn't take a machete to it, like the stands by the street do. We stopped by here again to get some shave ice on our last day in town. It was the perfect way to end our last day. They have a couple picnic tables available and beautiful fruit and breads for sale as well. Service was friendly and efficient.

    What a great local spot! The shave ice was one of our favorites on the island (the sunrise flavors with sweetened condensed milk 10/10). They also offer fresh local fruit including sugarloaf pineapple, which is a must try if you're in Kauai, as it's unique to the area. You can purchase the fruit cut up for you or whole to take with you. They also make fresh smoothies and sell locally baked mango bread or whatever pastry is in season. The service is quick, the owners are amicable, and it's a cute little corner spot to sit and have a treat. We'll miss Lana's cafe!

    Papaya coconut banana smoothie!
    Kat C.

    Loved this fruit stand so much we went twice. Nothing like a blended fresh papaya smoothie and some extra fresh fruits on the side haha. Egg fruit was pretty good in my opinion. It's like a savory sweet potato. Fast friendly service safe from the rain. Wish they can make this smoothie for me everyday.

    I badly wanted to try this place before I left from the island and I'm so glad I did. We saw so many reels about this place and I got the shave Ice and my husband got the smoothie. Both were so good! My husband said he was happy he got to try the smoothie and has no regrets doing so. Although I will say... this was one the best one shave ice I had on the island. The perfect amount of flavors and would want to try different ones or even make my own. If we're hadn't eaten lunch before or even we were leaving, we would have tried their fresh bread that they had just made. I think seeing the reels did this place justice, please go try it!

    Lana's Café in Kauai is a gem. I grabbed a smoothie and it was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you want on a warm island morning. Friendly staff, cozy vibe, and great quality all around. Highly recommend!

    Great place to get some local and unique fruit! We tried egg fruit and whoa it was unlike anything we've ever tasted. I had the best mango I've ever tasted from lanas cafe. We didn't get a chance to try their smoothies or shave ice since we ate prior to arriving but we will definitely be back!

    Great selection of fresh locally grown fruit from papayas, mangos, egg fruit, sweet bananas, coconuts and more! They make fresh fruit smoothies and Hawaiian shave ice. Both are fresh and delicious. I think this is Lana? Friendly and helpful, great fresh fruit!!

    Christina V.

    The best smoothies on the island. We look forward to them every time we visit! It's a highlight! The customer service is always so great as well!

    Fresh fruit - Great location - Good deals Just what we needed on a hot day. Got a mango pineapple smoothie, pinacolona with banana smoothie, and a $5 side of fruit. Took our drinks just behind the building on our beach walk. Fruit is fresh, drinks are chilled just right, and very tasty. I don't like to visit places more than once while traveling, will forsure make a journey back here!

    Amazing shave ice on the main drag through Kapaa! Very friendly service and plenty of outdoor seating. Highly recommended!

    This is a great spot for fresh fruits and smoothies. They have some other food items but I didn't try them. I was able to order right at the fruit stand in front.

We were pleasantly surprised with the shopping opportunity at their cute little shop, Minnie's Mercantile, and bought homemade beef tallow lotion, ranch style shirts and earrings, hat, and a cute cowhide wallet. For this being a small family-ran store there were lots of gifts and souvenirs to choose from, the more we looked around the more we added to our purchases!

The handmade products they sell reflect their proud cattle ranching heritage by using beef tallow as an important ingredient in their skincare products and one of their hats had the various family cattle brands incorporated into the design.
