The workers are always amazing! It's a nice place to have at a hospital, especially for families and employees. I always go for their iced chocolate (no caffeine) with whip cream. Everyone should try it! Their chai is really good as well! It's situated at the entrance of Kaiser and a quick place to stop by if you're on the freeway:) read more

To the left of the ground floor entrance of the Kaiser Permanente Moanalua Medical Center is Paradise Isle Espresso. A large kiosk - they offer a number of beverages to include coffee, as well as a few sandwiches/paninis. I tried their Ube Slush...with whipped cream. It was nicely flavored, not too sweet. Refreshing. read more

Every time I go to Kaiser Moanalua, either to visit someone or go for tests, I stop at this lovely little kiosk, located just outside the entrance. They have daily specials, muffins, pastries, fruit, coffee (freshly made when you order it), sandwiches, bottled water, salads. Hard to believe a little spot like this can provide so many offerings! The medical center does have its own cafeteria, so staff and visitors alike have a choice of where to eat. As much as going to the hospital is the last place you want to go, unless you work there, at least you can make your tummy happy read more

This place may look like an ordinary coffee stand, but they have delicious sandwiches and drinks! I love having dr appts here because it gives me an excuse to get my usual order from here - the sweet iced tea, and the Turkey panini! The Turkey panini is grilled and the ciabatta bread goes perfect with it. I love the gooeyness of the cheese with the Mayo and touch of pesto.. yum! I love it so much, I even asked my husband to get it for me when I gave birth here lol! I would definitely recommend coming here, and also calling ahead because it takes them a bit to heat the sandwiches :) read more

Located at Kaiser Hospital. Really friendly staff and the drinks are really good! Iced Thai is my go to. Also the paninis are surprisingly really tasty. They have a nice seating area where you can enjoy your purchase. read more

Half and half granita was perfect. Robust coffee flavor and not too sweet. Definitely will be my regular order from now on!

They make the coffees & meals yummy!! They're also really nice. Again reminder; this is a small family run business so please be patient with them. I wished they did stay open later though hehe read more

this coffee stand is right at the entrance of the hospital. their prices has gone up since the last time i was here, last year. i always get their panini's on my way out after my appts... the chicken turkey pesto is delicious! unfortunately, it is now $8.95. to me, that's expensive for JUST a sandwich! i would expect a bag of chips or a drink with it at that price. i was craving it, so i just went for it. know that there is a wait time for them to make it, about 8-10 min, depending how busy it is. i've never gotten any drinks from there, so i can't make a review on it. however, while i wait for my panini, i do see a lot of employees ordering them... so it must be good. read more

Paradise Isle Espresso - menu 3/2022 - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

During this past month, I've been either "chaufeurring" my sister to Tripler Army Medical Center OR taking my brother-in-law to visit my sister at Kaiser Permanente Hosptial, Moanalua. So, shortly after my brother-in-law was discharged from TAMC, my sister went in for surgery at Kaiser while I "camped" at their home to assist them with marketing, cooking and housecleaning. I admit that I'm really not a "morning person". I do need a good brew, um, make that coffee, to get me going. Strategically placed at the main entrance of this hospital is Paradise Isle Espresso. Through bleary eyes, I'd escort my recovering brother-in-law to visit my, then, hospitalized sister. After bidding my sister good morning, I would quickly get downstairs to grab that brew! The fragrant coffee/espresso aromas were like a "head slap" to me as I'd pass by or while standing in line behind others. The taste of their fresh brewed coffee was sublime, rich and smooth. I didn't get their special or flavored coffees. Service was always friendly and quick. Of course, once I had downed some coffee, I'd return to sit and visit with my sister! #319 read more

A nice little stand in a pretty good location. It's located at the Kaiser Permanente Medical Building near the Pensacola street parking entry. They have been here for little over a year. There used to be another vendor here a few years ago. They have alot of different type of sandwiches, drinks, coffee, etc. I ordered a Tuna Melt and it was ono. The young lady that works here is cool and friendly. If you're ever in the area, I suggest you give this place a try. ps. They accept credit cards too read more

Paradise Isle Espresso - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Location: There coffee cart is located next to the front entrance. You can't miss it! Food/Drinks: I'm on an iced white chocolate latte kick so I ordered their iced white chocolate. I was not disappointed. There regular coffee drinks have a shot of expresso in it. Win! I like my coffee iced and strong. I spend around $4 for my cup of joe which is the average priced for coffee drinks. I also ordered their turkey pesto panini. It was delicious. I paid around $6 for it which is roughly how much I paid in the past for something similar. I would definitely recommend trying their ice coffee and paninis. It's a good alternative to the hospital's cafeteria. read more

Paradise Isle Espresso - Turkey and Ham Panini! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Conveniently located at Kaiser Permanente Moanalua front circle. Come here for a great "pick me up" coffee fix or for quick snack/lunch. The Delicious menu features choices of both hot & cold coffee (see menu photo) granita's are also on their menu (I've noticed these are pretty popular) they're cups of amazing coffee slush, yum! My absolute favorite thing is the Hawaiian iced tea, (it's sweetened) a large size is ~2 dollars & it's delicious! Their lunch menu regulars include the Turkey panini and tuna melt (both delicious). Once in a while a Reuben will appear on the menu and it's a MUST TRY, you know...if you're into that kinda thing. Give the sandwiches 5-10 mins to reach their ultimate level of deliciousness. If you're feelin that a sandwich is too heavy, there's also Musubis, chips, bars and muffins available for purchase. The staff is always friendly, quick and personable. Prices are reasonable. Stop by if you're at kaiser! read more

Amazing customer service and the panini sandwiches are amazing . Today these ladies were so upbeat !! A good feeling before entering a drs appointment . read more

Breakfast of champions at Kaiser Moanalua! The coffee cart in front is a family business that's been around for over two decades, its current owners just renewing their deal with Kaiser for another three years. The spam musubi came highly recommended by my friend @toddk968, and runs out fast. It's got a dash of barbecue sauce, which is a nice twist... and it definitely beats the brown rice tainted spam musubi available at Sunrise Cafe inside the hospital. And the coffee drinks, both hot and cold, are a welcome treat on an early morning. read more

Paradise Isle Espresso - Coffee cart breakfast. Looking forward to the major renovations underway at the hospital! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Paradise Isle Espresso is conveniently located in front of Kaiser Moanalua Medical Center and Hospital. They offer a full coffee menu, but my fave is their coffee granita. Yes...it's poured from a slurpee like machine but it has a great coffee concentrate for a smooth bold flavor, offers a big caffeine boost and is creamy and smooth unlike Starbucks Frapps. They also serve musubis, cookies, croissants and paninis. The staff is always friendly and service is fast, even in the mornings when staff are just clocking in. Hospitals suck, but good coffee always makes the trip better! read more

Paradise Isle Espresso - Mocha Granita with Whip....hell yeah! Bold coffee flavor but smooth and creamy! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Ordered two sandwiches which we knew the timeframe would be at least 10 min. Stood there for over 20 min before I decided to just check on where our order was. Lady said "oh, you ordered it at 12:39 and it takes 10 min but it is only 12:44." I was like "how did I order it at 12:39 when I've been standing here for over 20 min already?" I wouldn't mind if it was busy, which it was, but for them to not own up to not even starting to make it and then lie about the time we ordered it, that made me mad. Even other customers were getting mad and saying that we ordered before them. Then a minute after I had said something, our order miraculously comes out, but the asian guy working the register gives it to us and is eyeing me out the whole time. I tell him "why you looking at me?" And that same guy who is supposed to be a customer service person tells me "because you're a prick." I won't go into what happened next but let's just say that he was ready to throw hands in front of a crowded lunch group while still on the clock. All in all, I told him he better learn customer service better. Don't lie about what time someone orders something just to save face that you forgot their order. read more

Extremely friendly staff. Elan and his wife Michelle take the time to know you on a personal level. They offer a variety of drinks, hot, cold, and slushes. The hot dog they sell beats Costco or any other hot dog I have ever tasted. They also sell paninis and makes for a good meal if you are at the hospital all day. read more

Came to Kaiser to get my vaccine, I had an iced mocha. Honestly it was better than Starbucks, no cap. Service was quick and friendly 10/10 would come all the way to Kaiser again just for an iced mocha read more

Small kiosk located at the entrance of Kaiser hospital. They have a nice variety of beverages and coffee flavors but they had very little left of any snacks on their small racks in the front of the kiosk. Coffee was tasty and hot and according to my friend the iced coffee was also very good. Convenient when leaving the hospital and quick service. read more

In addition to their yummy coffee and musubis, the staff is friendly, very accommodating and super fast. The iced Thai is pre made and one of my favorite drinks there. Probably once a week my co workers and I order a big group order in the afternoon. It's always ready when I go down stairs and it's always right. I get some weird orders too. Love these guys read more

I love the coffee drinks and the different snacks. Prices are reasonable, love the musubi, staff are great. Just wish they were open on the weekends to read more

Great iced coffee menu, but buyer beware: the medium is the same volume as the large, you just pay more for the large.

I work at the hospital and I am forever grateful for this coffee cart and the awesome owners and staff who run it! They have a variety of coffee options, but I'm boring and get the same thing every time. My favorite thing is they generally remember my order and make it perfect just about every time. They also offer food, and I absolutely love the Turkey Pesto Panini; delicious! They also usually have snacks too, so you can get a tasty muffin with your coffee if you'd like. Good coffee, food, and service! read more

Haven't been here for a long while. I was here for a job and was waiting to meet someone in the front roundabout and I saw a coffee cart. Since I had a little time while waiting, i decided to get something from there......what caught me was their mocha granita. I haven't had this for a while since the last place I knew had closed down. So refeshing. Now I know where to get my MOCHA GRANITA. Workers there are really friendly and helpful. Definitely will be back for more GRANITAs! read more

Paradise Isle Espresso - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

who said hospital food isn't good?! don't let this little coffee cart fool you - it offers great food and coffee at a spectacular price. michelle and élan are the owners and they put a lot of work into it. they get to know their regulars, and the regulars know them. it's hard not to - they're friendly and kind. they have a full coffee menu, variety of teas, granitas, thai coffee, and soda. i love the half and half - it's half mocha granita mixed with half of iced thai coffee. even if you want a black coffee, this is made right from the beans when you order it. no coffee pot, no stainless steel container that they pump it out of. it's legit coffee. they offer freshly made paninis - from portabello to turkey-cheese to chicken meatball to reubens. the foccaccia is fresh, the servings generous! they also have croissant sandwiches and tuna melts. they also make curry chicken sandwiches, chicken & cranberry sandwiches, and chicken burritos - all prepared fresh! if this wasn't enough, they make fresh salads - chicken cobb, southwest chicken, spring greens - all with homemade dressings. no store bought anything. this is all prepared by michelle and élan every morning. so rethink hospital food when you hit this kaiser up! read more

I've been here only a handful of times, but the service, coffee and sandwiches are all excellent! Elan and staff have a great thing going here. read more

Paradise Isle Espresso apparently participates with squareup.com, a website that uses unethical marketing practices. I live in Illinois, but I keep getting texts from sqaureup.com telling me that I spent $6.50 at Paradise Isle Espresso and that I should sign up for their service. I've never been to Hawaii, I've never given squareup or Paradise Isle my phone number, yet I still get phishing texts? I can't boycott Paradise Isle for allowing their name to be used by sqaureup.com for nefarious purposes, but I can give them a one star rating on yelp. Maybe someone somewhere will get the message... read more

I usually don't drink coffee at places other than Starbucks because, well lets face it, I'm not a real coffee lover. I'm a flavored froo-froo coffee lover. A coworker bought me coffee from here and I absolutely love their coffee. It's actually better than Starbucks because it's not as bitter. Great coffee and super friendly staff. read more

Always great service! Drinks are consistent with taste not like Other big named franchise. Family owned and operated!

I love love LOVE Paradise Isle Espresso Co!!!!! I am not a huge coffee drinker at all but when I do crave the caffeine I make my way to this coffee cart located in front of Kaiser hospital. They are so much better than starbucks not once have I ever not liked a drink from them in 3 years I have been coming to them. They take the time to to get to know their customers not just by face but by name and what they normally order it's great service that really doesn't exists with big name coffee chains. The hot dogs OMG, Panini's OMG Michelle you go over board with those they are amazing! read more

I was looking for a place to get coffee after dropping my son off at school. This place was located right in front of the hospital so I decided to give it a try and I'm happy I did. I parked in the loading area and ordered an iced white chocolate coffee. I had to move my car but before I drove around they brought my coffee out to me! Coffee was delish and service was amazing and prompt. I think I found my new morning coffee spot! read more

Don't like going into hospitals but the one (probably the ONLY) bright spot in these ordeals is this coffee kiosk. The friendly barista always accommodates my request of having my hot coffee drinkable at a reasonable temp! His positive attitude (never fails, he replies to my request "that's how coffee should be served!") and easy demeanor takes the dread out of these medical visits. I LUV THIS PLACE!!!! read more

Love their mocha granita service is always excellent!!

The coffee was first-rate. But more than that, the service was also. An example: I've been here because my partner's in the hospital. Today, I walked in. They weren't open yet, so I went on down to the room and came back. My "usual" was waiting for me. Amazing, and quite wonderful. read more

Best Thai iced coffee that I've tried in the 808! And to think this isn't a Thai restaurant. Sandwiches are really delicious, but still does not justify being that pricey, especially since most of the patients would not really want to spend that much of their hard earned cash on pricey food. Service was excellent and included delivery! read more
