This ice cream is delicious! Everyone is so friendly and they have a ton of flavors to choose from and you can sample them to make sure you get what you want! My favorite is the chocolate chip cookie dough. They have seating both in the store and outside. Just a heads up- it is a very popular place so if you go to a busy time, make sure you're willing to wait! Always worth the wait in my opinion :)

Heavenly Hana & Aunt Lilikoi's Passionfruit with Ube Haupia
Luis M.

The inside of this ice cream shop looks really nice. The way the decor is set up was more reminiscent of a nice coffee shop than an ice cream parlor. Not that that's a bad thing. They had a pretty wide array of flavors, of which I opted for the Heavenly Hana, which had everything I was looking for: Dark chocolate ice cream, marshmallow swirls, chocolate roasted almonds, white chocolate mac nuts, and sea salt. I felt a bit bad since normally I get things so I can share them with my girlfriend, but I could not pass this up. I thoroughly enjoyed my ice cream. Unfortunately, the same couldn't be said for her. She opted for Aunt Lilikoi's Passion Fruit and Ube Haupia. She wasn't a big fan of what she got, and after tasting it, I could see why, both flavors were definitely on the sweeter side. The Ube Haupia lacked ube flavor (had more than enough sweetness to it, though). It feels like Lappert's definitely has potential, but how enjoyable the ice cream is depends on what ice cream one gets! Overall a 3/5 ice cream experience.

Pukalani pineapple sorbet

Omg, I ordered the "Pukalani Pineapple Sorbet " silky smooth Smell: AMAZINGGG Taste: AMAZINGGGG, pineapple bits, yum!!!! Always crowded but worth the wait.

Nene tracks in waffle bowl
Rachel E.

This ice cream spot isn't bad. They have a variety of flavors. My husband chose the Nene tracks which has a mix of caramel and chocolate things, it is good if you can't decide what you want. The ice cream flavor I was most interested in, the Kona chocolate chip, was already out for the day. I was able to sample it, but they didn't have enough for a full school. This was around two or three p.m. so it's a bummer they ran out so early. I got the ice cream in a waffle bowl but the waffle bowl was just okay. I could skip it next time. While the prices are definitely on the higher side compared to the mainland, you can always get a Keke scoop which is less ice cream in a bowl. But you're probably on vacation, so why would you want to watch the calories? Hehe. They also had Maui Brewing root beer which is very hard to find in Kauai. So my husband was excited.

Gingerbread women!!!!
Elle F.

We came in to get away from the rain and ended up with an Americano, mint chocolate ice cream and a very cute gingerbread lady! The coffee was good but I found the water to espresso ratio was off for my liking. The ice cream was delicious!!! So so good and they had so many fun local flavours I wish I was in the ice cream mood so I could try more! The gingerbread lady was soooooo cute and according to my partner who is a gingerbread cookie connoisseur it was delicious- your classic well spiced cookie that was still soft! Service was very friendly!!! Would definitely recommend!!

Stopped by for visit to give them a try. Was impressed with some of the unique flavor options. They have passion fruit and macadamia nut. Just didn't think the ice cream was all that great. Trader Joe's ice cream is better!

Sara F.

Forever a favorite when visiting! Always with the best locally made ice creams, coffees are delish, and baked goods are amazing! The location in Poipu is small, but there is ample seating outside and the line moves quick! Stop in and sample, you'll leave with a treat no matter what!

Yummm! Lappert's is a local Kaua'i favorite and the ice cream is delicious. I got to chat with the chef and you can tell he pours love into creating really unique flavors. They've got multiple dairy free options that are surprisingly creamy and so good! Definitely stop here for a scoop or two when you're on island

Lappert's is life. The taste of Kauai. Mana from Hawaii Heaven. Must stop every day.

Paniolo Cookie (SO GOOD!!)
Madeleine B.

Great ice cream, great coffee, and put together, great affogato! Their cones are crunchy and tasty. I got their paniolo cookie which was 10/10, lightly crunchy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside, perfect balance of ingredients, highly recommend.

Yummy ice cream and coffee options with freshly made waffle cones. You can add sprinkles too which is my favorite way to top ice cream!

Great tasting and ice cream near Poipu. A bit overpriced - 2 doubles and 1 single waffle was $40.

These are special employees who go above and beyond who need raise or promotion. Already sent this to Hyatt feedback but hope management at Kauai sees this: Morgan front desk, immensely appreciated her help prior to arrival in making sure our stay was as celebratory and comfortable as possible, very nice and accommodating on phone, she was pivotal in making our stay enjoyable as i got sick during trip and spent majority in room Mylene at spa, truly exceptional massage, prior 32 yrs experience shines and this was the best massage of my life. She is also the sweetest and you should request her for your massage. Despite being the last client of the day for her, she totally exceeded expectations and i am so glad i met her Jayden at pool desk, went out of his way to run and find my sunglasses in the housekeeping basement as quickly as possible before i had to rush to check out, so very grateful for him

We were booked at this hotel for a birthday and our 39th Anniversary…read more We were told we had a great room, facing the ocean. Our room location was the last room at the far end of our building, overlooking a parking lot and in a terrible location. Room #6146 We didn't want to question this as we were tired from our plane trip and we didn't want this special occasion to be damped by any negativity. We were highly disappointed in the room and the location. Our room was a bit dated and we were surprized that the Hyatt didn't offer us an upgrade under our circumstances, as we were very specific. We would have paid more if they had explained the room properly, as we were very specific and we would have upgraded. We relied on the Hotel's reservation desk to direct us. They made a huge mistake which effected our trip. All in all, the grounds were beautiful and the service was excellent. We spent alot of money and we were determined to make this a memorable occasion. We were very disappointed.

The second day I ordered the lox and fresh salmon toast which also was on the same freshly baked bread. I ordered a Graham's Pilsner beer made in Hawaii (best pilsner) I ever had, with low hops, orange zest and a semi thick head ice cold.

I'm just guessing here but I'd say that less than 50% of the grocery items have prices displayed. I did ask how a person is to know how much something cost and was told that the price should be on the bottom. I actually did turn things over and could not find a price. I think she might have meant that the price was on the shelf edge below the items, however that is only somewhat accurate as very few items were priced. One can only assume that the owners figure that the wealthy tourists will just throw things in their basket willy-nilly and then gladly toss down their diamond crusted Mastercard Black Card at the register not to be bothered with such trivial things as getting ripped-off. Thanks but no thanks.

Park in self parking at the Hyatt and get validated with hostess. Free parking! The quality of fish being served is exceptional. The nigiri omakase was so yummy and reminded me of being in Japan. Melt in your mouth, so freaking delicious. You can't go wrong with black cod butterfish. Even my 1 year old loved it with a bowl of rice. My husband is still talking about Smoker and the Rye cocktail. Rainbow roll with real crab was also so, so good! Brother has uni and said it was just like his fav spot in Los Angeles serving Japanese uni.

Inside is very loud and high top tables are uncomfortable. Service was mixed slow but good. I was impressed how quickly the busers removed the dirty dishes from the table and how the were constantly refilling the water. The sushi service was slow. The rolls were a mixed bag. The rainbow roll was very good and well made. The California towered dry and not very flavorful. The lobster dynamite was amazing. I highly recommend ordering this. Very flavorful and deliciously warm. The drinks were good they had a nice wine list and the saki was good quality.

We were seated directly under a industrial fan used for the heat, but it was like 59 degrees so we asked if it could be turned off. We were told they can only turn it off it they turn off all the lights. So we asked if we could be moved to another table out of the way of the fan and were told no, this was the only table available. We sat down and the server immediately came over and asked for our drink order. We asked for a drink menu, so she brought one for five people. Then she stood at the bar staring at us until we decided. The drinks were delivered quickly and we're actually good. Next came the food order. Four menus for five people. Order placed for one taco salad, twelve street tacos, all chicken or steak, and one burrito. We asked if we could have chips and salsa, guacamole, and queso dip. One bowl of chips for five people, which we paid for two refills. Salsa was canned, guacamole was not fresh, and queso was bland. Taco salad was OK. Street tacos weren't what we expected and didn't have limes. They tasted ok and the meat was fresh. Burrito was messed up and they tried to lie and say that's how burritos are served and the green sauce was chilis. We found out it was cooked and served with ground pork. This was not advertised. Overall, they seemed bothered by us and we're talking about us in Spanish to each other. One of our party was fluent in Spanish. When we left, there were three people there with badges looking at some paperwork from the bar, which was very suspicious.

Huge disappointment and they raised their prices! Oh, and good luck ordering if you don't have your cell phone because you need to scan the QR code to get a menu while at the same time the hostess handed us old outdated menus reflecting old prices. And, if you don't mind flies swirling around your food then this is the place for you. I get that it's an outside dining experience but wow, dry chewy sock burritos, tasteless beans and rice, added with flies sure makes for a gross meal with family and friends.
