I had high expectations walking into 1 Hotel Hanalei. Instead, I left disappointed and $40 lighter after buying two drip coffees and pastries. The coffees were lukewarm, and for an "upscale" property, everything about this cafe felt bare-minimum. The real letdown: The staff. Not one smile. No genuine welcome. The whole operation felt like an obligation rather than hospitality. They handed me a paper cup--a paper cup--at a luxury hotel. There's nothing premium about that experience, and it made me question what I was even tipping for. For the same money and infinitely better service, I'd go to Java Kai in Kilauea any day. At least there, you feel like someone actually cares you showed up. If 1 Hotel wants to charge luxury prices, they need luxury service. Right now, this cafe falls short on both counts. Skip it. read more

One of the most amazing views I have seen! The view alone is worth coming by. I could stay here all day. I'm sad writing this review as I know I'll have to leave soon! My latte was strong, but it needed more milk. read more

Tucked between the gift shop and Welina Terrace, this the only breakfast spot at 1 Hotel Hanalei Bay. Sure theres complimentary waters and drinks spread throughout the resort, but if you need a fresh cup of coffee and a breakfast sandwhich this is the place to snag it. The hours could be longer to accommodate the time between the restaurants in the hotel open. You find yourself at the many bars getting a simple drink if youre thirsty. Their menu is super yummy and the aroma carries through the front of the hotel as well as in the check in area. Put up with the lines and try this place when theyre open. Dont wait until after 3 PM! read more

Matcha latte was VERY milky with no true matcha flavor in it. Extremely disappointing for a $13 latte. Gorgeous view however! read more

Located inside the stunning 1 Hotel, Neighbors cafe is the epitome of a picture perfect cafe. There is no place that can top the insane views you get sitting on the patio outlooking Hanalei Bay. Their acai bowls are so delicious. The perfect ratio of acai base to granola/fruit toppings. Every bite was so good. Also tried their breakfast sandwich which is like a fancy version of spam and egg sando but it was cold when we got it... still tasted okay but would stick to their bowls and pastries if you come here. Service is quick and friendly. Best part of coming here is getting to enjoy the views and take some gorgeous pics. Side note, you do not have to be a guest to dine here. Take a nice walk here if you're staying in Princeville and I heard you can also valet with validation too. read more

Amazing place and delicious food. Great option if you don't want to eat too much at the buffet downstairs at 1 Kitchen. Views are worth it alone. Highly recommend but it is busy on the weekend. read more

Love getting Matcha with these guys and vegan muffin in mornings. Atmosphere is also phenomenal to start your day... they have a great view!

This cute little coffee shop is located inside of 1 Hotel Hanalei Bay. If you aren't staying here, you can valet up front (for free with validation). The view is absolutely insane, truly so breathtaking. The coffee is delicious and they also have little items from the kitchen you can also order to grab and go. read more

Loooove this place!! The coffee is smooth, the staff is friendly and the views .. don't even get me started!! Only taking off one star bc it's extremely pricing ($8 for a coffee), but you're in Hawaii and at a retort so it's not surprising. We come here every morning to start our day -- even though we're staying about a 10 min walk up the road. Highly recommend checking it out even if you're not staying nearby! read more

What a view! Busy spot but always somewhere to sit down and enjoy the view and a coffee Some super fancy juices to try But generally has all th coffee options you want Everything we had from latte to espresso were good Cinnamon bun you gotta get Other food looked good too Would go again read more

Checked into HBR yesterday and walked her in the morning for coffee and a snack. Gorgeous inside, chill music at a perfect view!! Just look at this!! Oh yeah, cinnamon bun and banana bread were decadent read more

We stayed at the 1 hotel and I love when delicious coffee can be found in your hotel! You don't need to venture off far away for your caffeine fix! We had the matcha with coconut and Mac nut latte multiple times throughout the week and it was delicious! It was so nice to start our day with coffee here or check in before their 3PM closure and enjoy the view and then go out into the city! I wanted to try the burrito but it has bacon in it already so we had the egg bites and chocolate croissant! read more

Had a really bizarre experience where I asked the manager to show me a list of ingredients for a vegan muffin so I could check if my son with allergies could eat it. She told me she would ask and then didn't follow up as I waited for 15 mins. When I asked again she said they were very busy so I could wait until the line went down and then she could go downstairs and check. She never did. I came back the next day and asked a manager in a suit the same question. He talked to me for about 3 mins straight saying he didn't really know where he could get the information. I finally had to walk away because I was getting nowhere. This is a basic request. This is a 5 star resort. Food ingredient lists should be available at all service outlets so the staff can help guests eat safely. Beautiful atmosphere but no one was wiping tables down or bussing. I saw guests grabbing napkins and wiping tables down. read more

Great Coffee every morning. Loved the breakfast wrap. The view is the best way to start any day!! read more

Prettiest coffee shop in Kauai. Located in the 1 hotel, it has a stellar view of Hanalei Bay. Coffee is strong. Pastries are kid approved. Also offers fresh juice, açaí bowls and a few other items we did not try. Friendly staff. A little slow to get your order but busy and it's not Starbucks. read more

Compared to our visit in June 2024 the food was not good and no longer tastes like it is made fresh. Example is the breakfast sandwich, rock hard bun as if it got wet and was reheated. The egg on the sandwich was also not fresh either and it felt like a bad Starbucks experience. The service is always slow, they are on Hawaiian time. Ambiance is fabulous. read more

This is a nice cafe located at the 1 hotel. Although it's a bit pricey, the amazing view and ambience makes it fairly worth it. Service was on the slower side, as all I ordered was an açaí bowl, but enjoying the scenery definitely distracted me. I can't speak of parking at the 1 hotel, since I was able to walk from Hanalei Bay Resort, where I was staying. My açaí bowl was really good. It's on the sweeter side compared to most other açaí bowls you'll try on the island. Also, the peanut butter here is delicious! I highly recommend adding it to your bowl. read more

Prices fit with the high end nature of Hotel1, but you can walk in without being a guest. View is spectacular and I go there often to read or work on my laptop. Just expect to pay $8 for your basic drip coffee. read more

For a hotel cafe, this place is awesome! Great food, the view is unreal, and the ladies who work the cafe are super nice! Definitely try their breakfast sandwich! It's fantastic. read more

I loved this place! It has breathtaking views and such a relaxed yet luxurious vibe. It is open to the public! You don't need to be stay at the hotel to eat here. I can't recommend it enough. I thought our food was very tasty and similar prices if not the same prices as other places for the meal. It's a walk up and order / pick up at counter service but the staff seem kind and helpful. It is valet upfront but there are swings to sit in while you wait. This is a wonderful hidden gem. read more

Overall, it's got all you need. Coffee, smoothies, sweets, snacks. The view is undeniable as you stay in the hotel and can piggyback off the terrace and sit down to enjoy and sip your coffee. 1 Hotel, does, however, suffer from some of the staffing issues throughout the hotel. read more

Delicious breakfast sandwich with an incredible review! Highly recommend checking this place out!

Excellent view! Friendly service! Food was great! We came multiple times here during our 10 day vacation. I had the acai bowl a few times as well as their banana macnut bread, very yummy! My husband had the sweet potato waffles and the breakfast burrito, he enjoyed both. He heard the breakfast sandwich was awesome but it was sold out when he tried to get it - if you're interested to try it, the staff recommended coming early in the morning as it is the most popular item. Also the Holy Cacao specialty drink was awesome - we added espresso. read more

My favorite Princeville Cafe! I had a specialty coffee there in the morning 3 times & loved the view, peacefulness, & choice of tables! Great to be able to order at the counter & choose my own table, inside or out. I chose outside except the rain storm morning:). Wonderful ambiance, inside & out. I had the holy cacao twice & then enjoyed their other special (forget the name). Also had yummy Lilikoi gelato there 2 afternoons & brought my husband too. He enjoyed his Belgian chocolate gelato & the view. Very nice staff as well, sincerely kind & helpful! Note: they close at 4 & tables get set up for the other restaurants. read more

We paid about $60 for three coffees and a breakfast burrito and it felt a little excessive. Then I realized it was perhaps the most perfect breakfast burrito I've ever had, and definitely the tastiest coffee. On top of the delicious food and drink, the views are BREATHTAKING. By the time we left, I couldn't believe what a bargain we got. The service was friendly (shoutout to Mary) and the baristas were quick! If waking up early to take in the mountains and the gorgeous ocean is your thing, this is your place. read more

We rode our bikes over to this small cafe located inside 1 Hotel. They have a long outdoor balcony that overlooks Hanalei Bay. The view was breathtaking, and the simple cafe bites and coffee hit the spot! read more

Order and pick up at the counter. Breakfast burrito was amazing. The bagel not so much. Web said bagel came with plain cream cheese or salmon spread. They did not have salmon spread. Bengal was tough and chewy. The cafe is located in a lovely resort with a beautiful view. read more

Great food, service and the view was definitely the best part! Would definitely recommend and go back next time I'm in the island

The space is amazing. Worth going and buying something just for the scenery. The service was also good. The people working there are really nice and seem to do what they should be doing. The food? It's what made this a 3 star. The food was literally the same trash you'd expect to find at any popular coffee spot. No thought microwaved . Also extremely overpriced for what it was. Premade garbage. It's edible, it's not like it was gross, but it wasnt good. For a facility so nice and the prices they charge, they should've put more effort into the product. I get it though, profit margins are way bigger if you do what they are doing. read more

The coffee shop in the one hotel hanalei bay has an exceptional view and is a great place to grab a coffee and enjoy watching the waves before a day. The burrito was notable with a really fresh salsa pairing. The hanalei PB&C smoothie was great and filling. Definitely expensive but you're paying for the view and the experience. read more

Great views, decent coffee!! I got a chai that wasn't the best but the latte was great!

How is this "neighborly" when you charge members of the community $50 to park just to eat breakfast? As someone who's been coming to the island for 28 years, it's a turnoff and shows an exclusivity that you're trying to deter the every day man from. read more

The food is extremely over priced and not that great. I wasn't impressed with my açaí bowl, however my family got the breakfast burrito and said it was pretty good. The views are BREATHTAKING however, so we are still glad we came, just definitely wouldn't go back for the food. read more
