Hanapēpē is Hawaii's biggest little town and was once the capital of Kaua'i, once bustling with a…read morebusy harbor, train station and military base. Today, it's a sleepy town with art galleries, restaurants, gift shops and auto parts stores. Nestled in the corner of a former hotel and brothel is Longies. Offering refreshing and delicious (and legal) delights, it's somewhat of an oasis in a hot and dry region. On this visit, I had the Longies special, which is a bed of vanilla ice cream with shave ice flavored with Blue Hawaii, haupia (Hawaiian coconut pudding) and ube. There's also a vanilla cold cream cap on top of the shave ice. The place is family run with parents and their kids serving you with nothing but genuine West Side aloha. Ignore the reviews on other sites that say it's "lightly flavored water." This place is great.

The tour itself was conducted on a really cool converted truck with safari style, open air seating, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Our tour guide, Lisa, was absolutely incredible. My wife and I are both huge coffee lovers, and getting the chance to see where the magic happens gave us an entirely new level of appreciation for the coffee we drink every day. The tour was informative, relaxing, and genuinely fascinating from start to finish. We would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Kauai. As an added bonus, taking the tour also gave us a nice discount on coffee and gift shop products afterward. We would gladly come back again in the future, that is, if it is still around! If you know, you know. Kaua'i Coffee Company deserves to be protected at all costs! We also got to name one of the horses Chino! Like cappuccino!

The first time we visited the Kauai Coffee Company, it had yet to be widely available on the…read moremainland. Now their product is available everywhere, and this location in central Kauai is now the biggest coffee farm in the United States. My wife and I were in the area, so stopped in for a visit between breakfast and lunch time. The stop became an enjoyable visit. We were the first ones there, so waited in the large parking lot for it to open by 09:00. Inside the visitor center, there is a sampling table (choice of 4 coffee flavors), a gift shop, a small museum, and a cafe while the outside has a self-guided walking path. All are free to enter/use. Nothing in the retail store interested us, but we did share a coffee float ($5.99) made from two scoops of macadamia nut ice cream and Kauai cold brew. It took a bit of time for it to be made, but it was really, really good. Actually thought about getting another one while we walked the outside, but thought better of it. The outside walk takes about 25 minutes to complete, if stopping to read all signs (less than 10 signs) and actually admire each outdoor display. We came in late April, so the coffee plants still had their flower blooms which was a cool sight. Later, we discovered and completed a Pokemon Go route, forever etching our visit and walk into the game. Even then, our entire visit took less than 90 minutes.

I have to stop into The Right Slice every time I am visit Kauai…read more This last visit I got a slice of the "tropical banana." I'd explain it as an apple pie with baby bananas, and cobbler like crumbles on top. It's wonderful. One of the things I appreciate the most about this shop is that the staff is so nice about questions. I hear them answering all kinds of questions for almost every customer that comes in. They answer with patience and kindness. Overall it's got a lovely interior that feels like a hometown pie shop. It has interior seating. There is parking outside in front of the shop. Hope you visit because it's a very nice place for dessert or savory pies to go.

The last time I had a pot pie was at a KFC Irvine, CA & it doesn't compare to this. The pot pie here is so good, tasty and savory, it is Fire!! The hot pot pie comes in meat with over 10+ varieties, inluding vegetarian and Gluten Free. Besides the chicken pot pie, we enjoyed a slice of macadamia sweet pie, it was so hard to decide on what flavors since they all sound so good! I try to squeeze The Right Slice in when we visit the Garden Isle and try to make it out to here, this side of the Kauai. I can't wait to be back for more, if you are here you are definitely- getting The Right Slice!!
