I love this cafe spot recommended to come and hangout with friends or if you're college students definitely come check out and study. The place is cozy and you can enjoy looking at all the beautiful plants in side there. read more

I know I review a lot of cafes and say they are my favorite, but this is seriously now my favorite. The environment is beautifully curated, I think the best cafe vibe I have come across. Everything is earthy and the furniture they chose it beautiful. The lighting is moody and nice as well with a lot of great seating options in the front and the back. Their honey matcha latte is seriously amazing, one of the best matchas I've had and it's so cheap. Best customer service ever too. I feel really bad, but I accidentally knocked over their table with my whole matcha spilling on their rug. The staff worker was very understanding and made me a new matcha while cleaning up the spill with no complaints. I am very grateful for their kindness and will definitely be a regular here from now on. read more

Plantoem is a great place to relax, read a book and enjoy a nice drink with friends or solo. Every time I'm in the area I think about their matcha and decide to pop in. Today I tried the croffle with Nutella and strawberries... delish!! The energy and good vibes of this shop give a sense of calmness in the middle of a busy day read more

Plant or coffee lover? This is THE place! Looked for a coffee spot at the closest Leonard's bakery and found this gem. They have a parking area that's slightly hard to find but it's located in between two buildings where you drive up to the second floor and there's complimentary parking! The front of the shop is a plant lovers' dream! You're greeted by all sorts of potted plants and as you go deeper, they have a merch area, two different seating areas and the counter to order your coffee and pastries. One area was full so I went to their "sip and chill" area behind the counter and it was so peaceful. I got their Osmanthus Cappuccino and it was really good! They added cute latte art and tiny flower petals as a garnish. I would absolutely love to come back here! read more

Great quiet cafe to get some work done! You are greeted with beautiful plants (purchasable!) at the front and towards the back is the cafe! It is pet friendly! I recommend their Osmanthus Pear Pot tea! It is very floral and calming. There are two seating areas: a 90min workspace and an are towards the back where it is electronic free zone! Both seatings require at least a drink purchase. This cafe's ambiance will set you in a mood to focus on your work and relaxed at the same time. read more

This was a beautiful, cozy cafe tucked behind a plant shop. I had lots of fun looking at the plants, then I ordered my drink. I tried the Hojicha Maple Latte and it was amazing. Toasted and a little sweet. I settled into the Tech-Free zone in the back of the cafe and enjoyed the ambiance. They have open windows with a nice draft. Loved it here! read more

I felt like I was in the Garden of Eden. Exotic plants and coffee! The locally owned cafe is cozy with lots of natural wood. A seating area for people working or using devices is on one side and a separate seating area is for people that want to socialize or relax. There is a modern upscale heady vibe. The staff is friendly at the coffee bar. We ordered a Honey Matcha Latte, which took about 5 minutes to prep. My latte was good. I also picked up a banana bread piece for my granddaughter from a small case of pastries. There were no prices and the small bread ended up close to $8. The bread was very dense, but good. I felt that it was way overpriced. Be sure to ask prices of the pastries before committing. We sat a high top table that overlooked the street below. My granddaughter was a bit cantankerous and board. It's really not a place that is kid friendly. But it is a good place for a date. The plants are absolutely beautiful. Colorful air-plants were in bloom. Again, the plants were very pricy, but they were incredibly healthy and perfect. Empty pots started at $40. A spectacular cluster of blooming air-plants that I wanted was $38. The place is up a steep ramp behind a building and there is parking. We parked on the street below and walked up. read more

Performative this, performative that, respectfully, yall just don't perform how I perform. How I perform is unlike any other performance you've ever seen. I move like Michael Phelps in Beijing, LeBron in Cleveland, Woods in the Masters, Curry and Biles in Paris. Never doubt my ability to perform at a high level. This is a great cafe. The matcha is great, no clumps, and made by people I aspire to be. The interior is super sittable and chillable, we spent a smooth 2 hours here reading plant literature regarding Brutalism (shoutout Geisel Library) and staring yearningly out the window. read more

Suck a cute space! When you walk in there are plants EVERYWHERE! And exotic looking ones that are just perfect! I was in the mood for a matcha latte and got their honey matcha latter, while my coworker got the black sesame latte. I thought the matcha was good, just enough sweetener but could do with more matcha taste. Make sure to check out their baked items as well. Wish we could have stayed longer cause the vibe was very appealing. read more

This review is for their cafe. I've been to this cute shop twice. Once was to check out the plants and enjoy some hot tea. I ended up not buying any plants, although they have a vast selection of beautiful species, I could not bring to purchase myself considering the price. But I do love that they have a small little cafe in the back corner. Their hot tea was nice, nothing special to me. The second time I came back was to complete a stamp on my matcha map. I got their matcha latte with oat milk and to my surprise their matcha was delicious! I wasn't expecting much from a plant shop, especially since I haven't heard much talk of the shop's matcha drink, but this lowkey cafe made it on my list of delicious and strong matcha lattes! Probably top 5!! read more

This place brings a whole new meaning to the word vibe. It's like a cafe in an exotic jungle, pumping oxygen into your body and giving you energy and life. I absolutely love the glass cups and straws, it's so pretty and so much better than plastic or paper straws. Drinks are delicious. I come on the weekday mornings so have never experienced a crowd. Yes it is very hidden in a plaza with a turn on ramp that is nearly invisible. First time I came here I had to circle around the block three times, but it was truly worth it. Plants are very pricey, but I still bought it, haha. read more

It is located on the second floor up the parking ramp. The inside is quite big and the cafe takes about half the space. The plants are so gorgeous to look at. Hawaiiano ($7) doppio espresso, vanilla and coconut water. It was definitely a good drink on a hot day. The coconut water really is for the sweetness as the coffee is all you taste. read more

My first time here. There is limited seating so good luck. The back is reserved for people chilling and talking which is nice. I came to study so I found a seat by the window to the left. The WiFi is super slow so while I wait I will type up a review. Holy cow my Hojicha maple latte is so ONO!! I got it iced in this pretty little cup with a glass straw. They have parking in the back, however it's limited. The staff is super friendly and helpful. My WiFi connection finally came up, but it's too slow with this many people here. If I ever come here again I will bring my hotspot since there is a 90 minute limit for seating and I doubt I'm going to get my homework done at this rate. The plants are plentiful and I will probably take one home if they are for sale. One more thing if you get hot easily dress comfortably. There is no air conditioning which didn't bother me, but it looks like they keep it this way for the keikis.., the plants lol. I would come here again better prepared with hot spot and probably in the morning would be best. read more

Can't believe I haven't written a review for my favorite cafe yet! If you love matcha like I do you have to try their Honey Matcha Latte with oat milk (iced) it's my No. 1 on Oahu... So good! The vibe here is super chill. Staff are friendly and sweet. It's not really for people in a rush though! More like a cozy spot to hang out, take your time and enjoy being surrounded by plants. So happy we found Plantoem me and my friends come here all the time. Plants everywhere, peaceful vibes, and the best drinks. Love it here! :) read more

There is a veery serene atmosphere. In the shop, there are beautiful plants; they are a little overpriced.

Super cute coffee shop with allllll the plant friends. I always try the special or seasonal drink when I try new places. My sister had the matcha latte and said 5/5 stars! They were out of the weekly special syrup so I had the other soda she recommended. Super good! Highly recommend. Not much parking, but we took the bus and walked so it was easy in and out. read more

One of my favorite cafes of Kaimuki. I rotate between the hibiscus tea, hojicha, and honey matcha. Refreshing, reasonably priced and staff are nice. Matcha is bright green and the umami flavor clearly comes through. A popular spot for people to study, work remote, and talk story. As a student, I needed space for both a laptop and textbook so the previous white tables were too small for me to work and eat on. As of 2026, they revamped their space and added slightly bigger tables and more seating. I like that they expanded the next room and made it a lounge area where no ipads or laptops are allowed. I really appreciate this because I hate going to a cafe thinking I'll be able to sit and enjoy a drink and pastry for a bit but can't find a seat because everyone is working on their laptops for hours. You still sit pretty close to your neighbors and it's also a quiet environment, making it easy to hear other conversations. There's no AC so it can get warm on muggy days. Any other time, the open windows let in a nice breeze. If you come prepared, it's a lot better than a freezing starbucks. 90 minute limit. Parking lot is tight. Check out their small selection of knick-knacks for sale. read more

One of the cutest plant store + coffee/tea shop you'll find. Located on the 2nd floor of the building with ample parking. As you enter, you'll be greeted with a beautiful array of plants and flowers. Ambiance/ Service: I've actually been more of a tea than a coffee person, and I appreciate the range of teas they offer, from brewed to teapots. The coffee/tea shop and seating area is located towards the back and adorned with beautiful plants. It's one of the quieter places I've been to, and even customers having conversations are usually quite respectful of patrons working near them. The staff are always super welcoming. I enjoyed getting some work done, sipping on tea, and admiring all the plants before heading to dinner in Kaimuki. There is free wifi; however, there is a 90 min seating limit. Price & Drinks: $$ 4-8 for brewed teas, herbal drinks, and coffee. Pots of tea are $12. I ordered their green tea on my last visit because they were sold out of their boricha. Although my go to is their boricha, their iced green tea was super refreshing. Overall, I'd recommend checking out this cute plant and coffee shop :) read more

Within the last few months I started getting into matcha! And wow! I have been missing out. The honey matcha was the smoothest, silkiest matcha I've had yet! 1000/10! We asked the barista where they get their matcha from and he said it's from Japan! Loved it so much! I am also extremely obsessed with their black sesame latte! I love trying new drinks when I'm out and about -- this did not disappoint. It was the perfect amount of black sesame. Not overpowering or anything. I recommend going out of your comfort zone if you've never tried either. You're going to fall in love. I still think about my latte and I've had it twice! Barista was friendly and made out quickly. He was also informative on the plants and questions we asked. I love the vibe of this place. So cozy and earthy. read more

Such a huge fan of Plantoem! This is a plant shop, a cafe, and a community event center, all in one! While waiting for an appointment, I stopped by Plantoem to check them out and to kill some time - their cafe offers floral teas, coffee, and herbal drinks. I had a Spritzer, which was prepared with soda and your choice of lavender or lilikoi syrup - I opted for the latter, and this was expertly made! So bubbly and fizzy, and the right amount of lilikoi flavor! Very refreshing, and I loved how it was served in a glass with a glass straw! The staff here are super friendly and kind! There are also cozy seatings in their cafe. Be sure to check out their variety of plants; staff are readily available to assist! Note you have to go up the stairs to the upper part of a parking area, and the store/cafe is right there to your left. +great cafe +friendly service +all about that plant life read more

Walking into this place is like walking into an oasis. I can be spend forever in here looking at all the plants that I've never seen before. To be honest, I do not have a green thumb and I usually kill plants. However, I've gotten multiple plants from here and they are all still happy and thriving. The staff are super knowledgeable about every single plant. They know the name and what it likes. It is amazing that they can remember all of it. They also have the best customer service. They will spend time with you to pick the best plants for you. Prices can be a little more expensive, but the plants here are well loved. Parking is tight and a little odd since you have to drive up a steep ramp. However, it is 100% worth it. In the back of the oasis sits a coffee bar with seating if you want to take in the greenery. Definitely a lovely place to sit and relax in quiet. read more

lovely place to sit for a coffee, and a rare coffee shop that doesn't have music blaring so you can work or talk. Coffee is great, and bread pudding is sweet but very delicious. The plant store part is also wonderful, with many beautiful and interesting plants for the home or for gifts. The only downside is the annoying parking app so, which takes forever and kind of ruins the first few minutes of meeting up with anyone. Hope they can get a different app or company. read more
