Probably my go-to coffee spot during my stay in Oahu. There's a parking lot so it made it easy to pick up coffee before planned activities for the day. Service is quick and easy, usually little to no wait. Not exactly Kona coffee but the coffee is amazing nevertheless. I got to try two of their specialty drinks, the Hawaiian Latte and Lavender latte with honey, and both were delicious! I also highly recommend trying their banana bread, that was yummy. read more

Came back to visit here during my annual Hawaii vacation! I'm so happy I came back! I remember I came here a year ago and the owners told me they were newer, and I'm so happy that it's still standing strong and busy! There were so many people in here studying & working. It's such a vibe and such a great feeling to see it growing! Jessica was helpful up front. I got my lavender late & tried the açaí bowl! SOO GOOD! I will be returning. read more

Pai Cafe - a bowl of fruit and a drink - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Horrible service. I WAS a regular customer because of the matcha drink Not anymore. Went recently and manager was very rude. The only good thing on that menu is the iced matcha everything else I have tried is not good. Also found hair in my banana bread one time but never said anything because I THOUGHT it deserved another chance. Honestly not forth your time or money if one drink on the menu is the only thing that's good. Find anywhere else because I promise you it'll be a lot better than this place. read more

First look. It is such a cute cafe. I saw cookies and scones on display for customers to purchase along with smoothies and coffees. People were sitting at tables and enjoying each other's conversations and food. I felt tropical, so I ordered the Tropical Smoothie. They blend mango. Pineapple, banana, apple juice and soy. It was not sweet a little tart and oh so good. You gotta try it. Can't wait to return and try their latte. I found parking in the lot right in front of Pai. read more

I needed a coffee fix while grabbing some poke at Ono's Seafood and conveniently Pai Cafe was located in the neighboring plaza. Like the small parking lot, this cafe was small but warm and welcoming. The Velvet Cream Cold Brew and the Hawaiian Latte were the two signature cups that caught my eye. Thankfully the friendly barista was nice enough to help with my decision making and since I like my coffee strong instead of sweet, he suggested the Velvet Cold Brew. I was pleasantly surprised by how good the Velvet Cold Brew was. The barista described the velvet cream as similar to Starbucks' cold foam. Similar and better in my opinion, as the foam was smooth and very creamy. The cold brew was perfect and after a good stir to blend the foam into the cold brew, I had a perfect drink. Throughout my drive, I kept complimenting how good the drink was and how I should've ordered more so I wouldn't have to share. Easy to say, I can't wait for my next trip to the islands to visit Pai Cafe. read more

Perfect little cafe on Kapahulu. We tried the London fog, lavender latte and velvet cream cold brew. Each of them were great! The blueberry scone was soo good. We were able enjoy one from a newly baked batch. Wonderful couple running the store. Such a pleasant experience. Wish we discovered this place earlier in our trip! We would have been here every morning! read more

A very cute cafe with a nice mix of different flavored drinks! Super cozy and I can see myself definitely being able to get some work done. The service was nice and answered all the questions I had for them. The drink itself tasted nice but I got a normal drink. I'll definitely try a different drink next time. read more

Pai Cafe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

OVERALL: I love Pai Cafe! You go to a coffee shop for... COFFEE and Pai Cafe has great coffee! VALUE/SELECTION: Their menu includes teas, smoothies, and scones. You must try their Portuguese Sausage and Onion Scone... SO GOOD and homemade by the owner's wife! Crispy outside, moist and savory inside. SERVICE: The owner does a great job caring for each drink that is ordered. You can tell they care about your coffee. AMBIANCE: There is seating indoors and a few chairs outside. They do provide free wifi. Nice touch of music, but wouldn't come to have a sit-down conversation. It's great if you need to plug in your headphones to get some work done or read a book. PARKING: Limited so you may have to find parking elsewhere. read more

Good as hell, fast and friendly. Tried a few other places on my trip and this spot takes the cake. read more

Pai Cafe - Velvet Cream Cold Brew - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Amazing iced lavender latte and baked goods. I love the salted chocolate chip cookie and savory scones. The owners are super nice. I also want to try the lavender matcha latte next time! There are a couple of seats inside so I usually take my coffee and treats to go. Small parking lot so go early! read more

I saw these amazing scones across social media and had to check them out. Pai cafe is near Ono Seafood in Kapahulu. Its in a small shopping center so if you want to parking I would suggest to go when they open, plus they do run out of their homemade scones fast. It is a small cafe, but the safe are so friendly and really treat you like you're family. We ordered the Honey Rose Matcha and the Hawaiian Latte. The Honey Rose Matcha had the perfect balance of sweetness from the honey rose but still had such a strong matcha flavor. The Hawaiian Latte was a little sweet for my taste, but the espresso was nice and strong which I enjoyed. For food we ordered the acai bowl and the blueberry and tomato basil stone. The acai base itself was nice and firm and I loved all the toppings on it. I think the best thing was the scones. The scones were nice and fully but still had a nice crunchy outer layer. You can definitely tell they were made with love and care. Pai cafe is definitely worth the buzz and you need to pick up on of their scones or baked goods if you go and check them out. read more

Will always make a trip to this coffee shop when I'm in town. Iced Hawaiian latte and their home made scones are truly to die for. Blueberry, earl grey and one of their savory cheddar cheese scones I've tried and they are sooo good. They also heat it up for you! Their coffee is done right and so much flavor. Cute interior with seating and a parking lot makes it easy to access! read more

Pai Cafe - Cheddar scone, Hawaiian latte, matcha latte and blueberry scone - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Best coffee ever! I always get an Italian caramel macchiato and my coworker gets a velvet cream cold brew... Soooooo good. Their bakery stuff (the salted chocolate chip cookie or scones) is to DIE for. Not to mention, the owners are just the sweetest, kindest people. We always look forward to getting coffee and chatting with them before work. Happy to have a cute coffee shop on Kapahulu! read more

Nice exterior/interior. Unfortunately, coffee was bitter and poorly made. Service was a little too cool for school.

Such a cool neighborhood gem, has a super relaxing vibe. Great açaí bowls and smoothies as well as amazing coffee and chai/tea beverages. Don't sleep on the scones! The Portuguese sausage one was so good, and we loved the pesto and sundried tomato one as well as the cheddar and Parmesan cheese one too :) read more

Pai Cafe - Açaí bowl - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Scones! First of all, they are actually scones. Most places sell things they claim to be scones but are either super sweet and cakey or super hard and dry. These scones are legit scones. Second, they are delicious! My daughter and I walked there from Waikiki (roughly 20ish mins) 2 days in a row because they are totally worth it. Third, super unique flavors! Earl grey was our favorite. Tomato basil was my husband's favorite. If you're in the area, definitely worth a stop! read more

Pai Cafe - Scones - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

if you're looking for real matcha with a strong matcha taste this probably isn't the place for you. i ordered a honey rose matcha and it had clumps and came out pretty fast which does tell me that it's not made the traditional way. the rose syrup was well made but it did overpower the matcha itself. i'd say it's a good starter(?) place for those who aren't as familiar with matcha and like it more as a background taste. i did like the acai bowl a lot though and it did fill me up. creamy, smooth, & naturally sweet but not the kind that makes you feel sick if you eat it first thing in the morning lol. i still need to try other things on the menu but so far nothing crazy that stands out to me about this place yet. read more

Just went for their lemon earl grey tea scone and was not disappointed! The lemon glaze adds the perfect touch! If you arent a fan of tart/lemon you might not like it since the glaze is tarty, but i love lemon so i loved it! read more

I would eat there every morning! They served me and my friends with a smile! I felt invited and would love to go back when I'm back in Hawaii! read more

Pai Cafe - Lavender latte with dragon fruit bowl!! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Stopped by after eating lunch nearby since I saw this spot on social media and wanted an iced matcha latte. The matcha quality was pretty good and definitely a nice vibrant green color. I did not like the oatmilk they used so I would recommend any other milk alternative they have (they use Kirkland oat which imo tastes like soy milk, not their fault but any other oat milk brand would be a better option by far). The service was nice and friendly and for noon on a Wednesday they seemed quite busy for a newer cafe. Parking is out front and free but again, quite full. They have a nice clean restroom and a good amount of tables and chairs to sit a while. Free wifi as well! read more

Probably the worst cold brew I've ever had. Great friendly service but the coffee is not good. I ordered the velvet cold brew and for some reason the cold brew tasted sour. Not sure if it was an old batch of brew or not. Haven't tried other items but the acai bowl looked good. read more

Pai Cafe - Worst Cold Brew EVER! Velvet Cold Brew... sour tasting - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

The vibe is a 10. Visiting my bestie who got the iced Hawaiian latte and I got the iced americano. We both had açaí bowls, wished I added peanut butter like my bestie. Sooooo yummy!!! The owners Micah and Sun are so sweet and helpful and it's a very cute café with a convenient location and parking lot. Can't wait to come here next year read more

My favorite cafe here! I absolutely love the owners they are super sweet and always leave me smiling. The coffee is great quality but I always get the lavender honey matcha which is huge for me to say since I usually get coffee no matter what. Their baked goods taste like home in the best way. After my finals last semester I got myself a cookie as a reward! The space is a bit small for studying or hanging out but cool art and happy people :) read more

Pai Cafe - Iced Lavender Honey Matcha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Visited several times to try their matcha lattes (I don't drink coffee) and honestly love their lavender honey matcha. Not too sweet with a hint of lavender. The rose matcha has a strong rose scent, so be warned if you're not a fan of floral scents. Scones are baked in house and they are YUM. Brought my boyfriend and our dog on our most recent visit (they're dog friendly!!) and my boyfriend tried the velvet cream cold brew which he really liked. Great small coffee shop, I hope it sticks around long term! read more

First time trying this new cafe. The coffee is good. The large size is 12 oz. Wish there were larger size options. I am addicted to scones so I have tried scones from all different places. We bought the sun dried tomato, bacon and blueberries ones to try. They are all so good. Ate all the scones so fast before taking any pictures. The scones were crispy on the outside and were moist inside. Perfect texture for me. Good price as well. The scone is less than $4. If you love scones, you won't be disappointed. read more

The place is so cute and quaint! The male worker went above and beyond for my request. I have a soy allergy and he specifically set mine aside, and made it himself so it wouldn't get messed up. The most flavorful açaí bowl and the freshest fruit The coffee, smoothies and bowls are all amazing!! A must try in Waikiki!! read more

So good. Always get the velvet cream cold brew and these guys are awesome. They have compassion for customers. read more

I got a iced matcha tea latte and it tasted like someone cares about their craft. I can't imagine how their coffee would taste if the drink I got tasted amazing.

came to pai cafe twice during our stay here - my husband is a bit of a coffee connoisseur and he loved their coffee. I am not a coffee connoisseur but I do love delicious lattes, and their Hawaiian latte was amazing, perfect, excellent, delicious, would highly recommend. the owner is also so kind and friendly and easy to talk to, and remembered us when we came back!! also, it's right next to Ono seafood so if you want a mid-day energy boost along with your afternoon poke, why not stop by??

Love the parking lot here! I didn't feel like I was gonna get my car destroyed trying to parallel on kapahulu. One of the biggest reasons i avoid this area is because I've seen too many accidents or close calls. Thankfully this parking lot eased all my worries. My Iced Americano and Acai Bowl was the perfect start to my lazy Sunday. read more
