We had the black sesame pastry and a chocolate banana croissant. That was our Welcome to Hawaii! So good! I loved it there.

My favorite is the Dark Cloud Latte, black sesame syrup and espresso....sooooo good! The staff is always friendly! On this visit I got a shot of espresso on the side.

Super cute cafe with fun drink options! I did go mid morning on a weekend and I believe there was…read moreonly one barista working at that time. Because of that it did take a little bit to order and get my drink, but I was not in a rush and honestly for one person taking orders and making drinks it was pretty quick! Got the kulolo crunch latte which was something I haven't tried before & it was great! There's limited indoor and outdoor seating which occasionally can fill when it gets crowded. They also have vendors do pop ups occasionally which is always a nice surprise! I love being able to look at the different booths while waiting.

I tried a sandwich here once and it was really good. They toasted it and brought it out to me at my table (they were busy, so it took a while for it to be made). The coffee is always great. I typically order an iced coffee and it's always a hit. This location is in a hotel, so it can get really busy and even a little noisy with the waterfall. I'd recommend sitting at a table near the entrance if you're wanting to sit and chat with someone.

Kai Coffee is always a reliable stop, though if you've been to some of their other locations around…read morethe island, this one does feel a bit more corporate in comparison. The space is clean but lacks some of the charm you might find elsewhere, and the AC situation is on the limited side, so plan accordingly if you're visiting on a warm day. That said, the coffee itself holds up well. The macadamia nut flavors and other local twists on the menu are genuinely good and worth trying if you haven't before. It's the kind of spot that does what it sets out to do without a lot of fuss. A solid option when you're in the area and need a quick pick me up, even if the atmosphere isn't the most memorable of the bunch.

I recently went here and got the iced Thai coffee. It was ok. I have yet to try other drinks. The…read moreemployees were nice and the sitting area is small and is mostly two-seater tables. This place is located in McCully Shopping center and while they do have parking up front, it's not much parking and it tends to get pretty busy here. Just keep in mind that if you pay with a card it is a minimum of $10. There was a couple of times where I didn't have cash and I just had to buy a snack or dessert to meet the minimum.

I'm not sure if I've been spoiled by the availability of other milk teas and boba, or if the quality of the teas here have declined, or if their teas have always been this diluted and I never knew better coz it was the only convenient choice. Not the best or the worst I've had; they'll do in a pinch if I am craving boba.

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.

I had their Hawaiiano ( nice pun ) the other day. It consists of a doppio, coconut water, and…read morevanilla syrup...very good. I also had a Black Sesame drizzle, blueberry adorned croffle. Excellent...the black sesame reminding me of their amazing Iced Black Sesame Latte. Ambiance is chill with South American wooden stools and wiooden/leather chairs. Airy - open windows and fans - with lots of natural lighting.

Hello Again will have me coming back again! My friend Li Y. recommended we stop by here so I could…read moretry their matcha. I'd been curious about trying their matcha offerings, so I was excited. We came on a holiday morning, and there wasn't anyone inside. The cafe is cute and vibey! Love how pet-friendly it is with the polaroids--I'd definitely bring my pup here. There's also a decent amount of seating to hang out or work at. Service was fine. I ordered at the register, and she made my drink immediately. I was intrigued by their Haupia Matcha Latte. I love all things Haupia, so it seemed like the perfect match. I got the Haupia Matcha Latte with Oat Milk, and it was superb. I loved how creamy it was, how the sweetness of the haupia shone, but the earthiness of the matcha was still there. I'd definitely recommend this drink and am curious about their others. Hello Again is a nice cafe addition to Chinatown. With all the cafes in the area, it's worth a visit if you're a matcha lover like me. Find the cafe off Nuuanu Ave., unassuming on the outside but nicely sized once you go in! Parking is limited to the street or nearby municipal parking.

Seating is available inside and they give you, I believe, a 30 minute parking validation if you park in the structure but there is ample metered street parking, if you're planning on staying there longer.

It's super easy to get here walking around Kaimuki, or there's free ample parking right behind the business with a rear entrance too. It's cozy with a great bar area, small tables for conversation or work, and a wine and beer selection for evenings. On my visit I had a black iced coffee and a coffee cake; both were delicious!
