Arrived at this place on an early Friday morning to grab some coffee. Street parking was relatively easy since we got a spot right in front. Immediately entering the store we were greeted by the cashier (which I'm presuming is the owner) welcoming us in. The overall feel and vibe of the shop was clean and accommodating for people to sit and relax. I ordered the caramel haze with oat milk which totalled around $9. The tasted really sweet and the texture was perfect. Generally with oat milk drinks it can be sometimes powdery but I believe the ice cream helped make drink overall creamy. If you're visiting Kauai and have a few minutes for some coffee after arriving, this is a perfect first coffee place to check out! read more

First time at Rainbeau Jo's and they did not disappoint! The interior is fun, vibrant and welcoming. We were greeted by friendly staff members. There was a line inside, but it went fairly fast. I ordered the caramel haze and the jimmy pesto with an everything bagel. Everything tasted so good. The coffee was like a milkshake, and had a good balance of flavors. The pesto cream cheese was super creamy and paired well with the bagel! We were genuinely impressed and would definitely recommend Rainbeau Jo's! read more

10/10 experience. I wish I knew about Rainbeau Jo's sooner! Such an easy and yummy stop right by the airport. I have to say the service was some of the best on the island. The staff made me smile and brightened my morning with their fun positive personalities. I got the Cowabunga Brah breakfast sandwich and it was so delicious. Do not miss this stop on your Kauai trip!! read more

We LOVED it here! We stopped at Rainbeau Jo's on our way to the airport after getting engaged the day before. Beau & Jo were fabulous and so celebratory for our recent engagement. The entire coffee shop and everyone in it were uplifting, loving, and made us feel right at home! We ordered two coffees and two bagel sandwiches - they were the perfect breakfast before our flight home. My fiancé got the pesto sandwich and I got one with lox & microgreens! Both were delish & our coffees were incredible! They even drew the sweetest little drawing on our lids for our engagement. I ended up grabbing a hat too to commemorate our trip & experience because it was truly the best send off on our way back home. We loved it here and are looking forward to visiting when we come back for an anniversary trip one day! read more

We loved this place! Especially the kids. It has such a fun vibe and the coffee was great. A little on the sweeter side, but still good! We were talking to someone who seemed like the owner and was super helpful and playful with the kids. They enjoyed the stickers and smoothies and met more friends while we were waiting for our drinks. read more

Rainbeau Jo's was honestly one of the best coffee experiences I had in Kauai. I'm glad I stopped by on the way to the airport for one last caffeine fix. From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly kind and welcoming -- you can immediately feel how genuine and positive the energy is in this place. Its so cutely decorated! Looks like one of those cute coffee places in San Diego and reminded me off home :) Beau himself served us, and he truly made the experience unforgettable. He was so friendly, so warm, and just one of those people who instantly makes you feel comfortable. You can tell how much love and passion goes into this shop, and it really shows in the way they treat every customer. The drinks were amazing -- seriously some of the best we had on the island. Everything tasted fresh, high-quality, and made with so much care. Pair that with the fun, happy vibe of the shop and it just made the whole stop feel special. We're already saying we can't wait to come back to Kauai just so we can come here again. If you're in Lihue, this place is an absolute must-visit. read more

Such a cute coffee and smoothie shop located close to the airport! The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. You can tell that they care so much about the food/drinks they serve and making their customers happy. My mom and I ordered smoothies - napali nectar ($10.25 for 16 oz) and Kauai sunrise ($10.25 for 16 oz). The smoothies were fresh. We also shared an everything bagel with strawberry fields cream cheese ($6.50). A nice balance of sweet and savory. The cream cheese was sooo good and you can tell it's homemade! We licked it right off the paper. I also got a cute sticker for $4. I can't wait to put it on my water bottle or laptop. I wish I came back to try their coffee. I heard it's amazing! The decor inside is so bright and lively. Random fun fact - their bathroom is clean and their toilet paper is plush. read more

Do yourself a favor and make this your first stop after getting off the plane in Lihue, you won't regret it! Such amazing vibes in this shop, and they serve great coffee and bagels! Beau is hilarious and friendly, he kept the line moving but also made connections with everyone who walked through the door and everyone at the register. He even gave us a recommendation for a waterfall to visit nearby to take pictures at. I got to Coco Crunch Ombre which he said is a customer favorite and back on the menu for right now. It was sooo tasty, caramel and coconut creamy heaven. The coffee had great flavor and wasn't bitter or watered down. It was the perfect pick me up after landing in Kauai at 9:30am. We also tried the bagels, including the Jimmy Pesto on a rosemary bagel and the Brahvocado with added pesto cream cheese on an everything bagel. The bagels were fresh and had the perfect chew and crisp to them. The pesto cream cheese was full of flavor. There are indoor seating available and they also have a to-go window outside that you can pick up mobile orders if you're in a hurry. Parking is available behind the shop, it has signs letting you know it's parking for their shop. Definitely look forward to visiting again soon and trying a new drink option read more

Such a fun coffee shop! Coffee was awesome and pastries. Service out of this world! Where does all that energy come from!

The atmosphere, vibe and energy is nothing but good here. The owners and staff are friendly and welcoming. The owners work at the register and behind the counter making coffee and chopping it up with customers. They have a great flow going. The place is spacious and comfortable with plenty of seating and pretty aesthetics. My coffee was good and husband enjoyed his green smoothie. I also took a peek in the back where they are mixing up our drinks and I've noticed they' were using relatively good products which is always a perk. All in all our party was happy with our orders. read more

My cashier (who I believe was the owner) is the only shot of espresso you'll need!! Jokes aside, the vibe inside is like sunshine. Fun decor, bright colors, house music going. Great selection of fun coffee based drinks. Ordered the blended Kauai Cruiser which was a sweet start to the morning. Good hints of chocolate. Also had the Brahvacado on a rosemary bagel which was also really good and fresh. Would recommend! read more

No ka maikaʻi - which literally translates to of the best - is how I'd describe Rainbeau Jo's. Down in the dumps? Take one step inside and guaranteed you will leave with a smile on your face. Beau's greetings shower you with aloha. Their vibes inside are just as warm and friendly - from the insanely adorable stickers/magnets and merch, to the wall mural and decorations. I'm shocked it's taken me so long to discover this gem. With little smiley's on the lids, to the sip cover hula dudes, what is not to love. Oh yes, and the coffee is just as good. The Rainbow Rita drinks didn't disappoint. Caramel haze left me in a happy daze. Def for those that have a sweet tooth. Smoothies were also very good. Punch card for frequent visitors too - def get one if you're on the island and plan to visit more than once. Will absolutely return next time we are in the area! read more

I wish we had stumbled upon this place our first day on the island and not our second to last day. We had coffee all over Kaua'i but we were staying just down the road from this spot and decided to try it. Immediately when we walked in the vibes were high the owner was full of energy and greeted us and told us everything about the place and all of his unicorn staff was just as incredible and hyping us up. The decor was so cute and bright and fun. They had cute merch. They had great personalities and they had hula hoops, outback, which we did use. They took time to get to know us and talk to us and find out what we liked and everything we had was incredible so much that we came back the next day and ordered again. I got a standard Mac nut latte with vanilla and my daughter got some extra caramel blended drink, and then the next day she got a white chocolate blended drink with caramel added. And then my breakfast sandwich was a croissant with like a pesto, cream cheese, and sprouts and tomatoes, and it was so incredibly delicious. I can't even explain it and then my daughter had a kiawe (sp?) bagel with cream cheese and blueberry and she said it was so good. She ended up getting that both days and the croissant. I got the second day as well. I could rave for hours about this place. They just make you feel like you're a part of the family. it's literally my dream coffee shop. read more

Absolutely loved the vibe here at Rainbeau Jo's! When you walk in, your feel so special since they greet you like an old friend you haven't seen in a while. I loved learning about Beau (the guy at the register who greets you) and Jo (making the delicious coffees) are husband and wife! It looks like they make a great team. We ordered: -Cold Brew ($4.95/12 oz)+ Mac Nut Flavor ($1) + Mac Nut Milk ($1.25): delicious Mac flavor -Pineapple Danish and Cinnamon Roll: both were delicious warmed up They also sell cute merch including clothes, stickers, and more. I couldn't help myself and bought their purple crop t-shirts. Lovely coffee shop to start your morning. I highly recommend checking out Rainbeau Jo's! read more

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would!! From The guy (sorry I didn't get his name) greeting everyone and taking orders to the ladies in the back... the customer service was TOP NOTCH! The food was also awesome. The bagels were sooo good and you could could tell they were fresh and locally made. The coffee tasted amazing and had great flavor. We were just planning on coming here one morning on our way out to the north shore, but now we plan on coming here tomorrow morning too!! read more

1) Food: I couldn't decide between lox bagel and pesto cream bagel so they were more than happy to modify to include both. Total was $12. Decently priced for Hawai'i (I've had $20 bagels on Oahu). Great flavors! The Kiawe bean taste reminds me of toasted sesame seeds. Enjoy it while it's warm. Not the same as NY bagels but I still enjoyed tMy indecisive-self appreciated having the best of both worlds for the shmears. I didn't get any drinks but they were also decently priced and sounded yummy. 2) Service: EXCEPTIONAL. Nothing less than amazing. If you want to feel special and energized, the staff can provide. 3: Ambiance: My favorite part of this cafe. The interior was intentionally created with a tropical theme and multiple seating areas. Even the bathroom was themed, clean, and neat. You could comfortably enjoy your food and drink here while you catch up with a friend, do some work, or just to sit alone and enjoy. read more

Wonderful, vibrant people who deserve all of the business they get. Coffee and breakfast bagels were great, stopped here several times on our trip. Beau even took the time to write down suggested beaches, etc. Shop is so cute and upbeat, which is a plus! read more

This was such a great find on our way home! We needed 1 last breakfast before flying home and I'm so glad we found Rainbeau Jo's! As soon as we walked in, I knew I'd love everything about it! Fun 80s music was blasting! Service was great! The owners are funny and attentive. We loved all their food and drink suggestions. The pesto cream cheese on rosemary bagel is absolutely fantastic! The coffee was amazing! They also had great merch. I got some cute stickers and a funny shirt. When my son asked for stickers for himself, he was challenged to get me and his dad to hula hoop out back and be filmed in slow motion. Of course we obliged and he was rewarded with a sticker for each of our videos. Will definitely return here when we come back to Kauai. read more

BEST EVER!!! As I sit here in my caffeine and sugar induced coma, I'm reflecting on the fact that I just had the BEST MOCHA SHAKE that I've ever had in my life. And believe me I've tried them all. A lot of times people have the consistency wrong or don't use enough ice cream, or not at all. Sometimes they don't use the right coffee etc. etc., Believe me when I tell you, this was absolutely PERFECT. I don't even know how they got it so smooth and creamy and tasty. I had one of their bagels which was a little tough around the edges, but the cream cheese and butter were delicious. Even if it wasn't the perfect bagel, I can completely excuse it because every business that sells bagels has a bad bagel day and I'm sure the next one will be great. The mocha shake more than made up for it. I'm really looking forward to going back there and trying other items. Because if you put that kind of love and effort into your work, then you know it's gonna be good. Oh, and the fact that they were all just the most amazingly friendly people you could imagine. They are a shining example of how just about every business should be (Maybe not a mortuary). If you're feeling down, go in there and your day will be reset for sure! You just see the customer's faces lighting up as they're being treated with such Love and Aloha. If I was independently wealthy, I would approach them and see if they wanted to branch out with that business model. And the funniest part of the day for me was the fact that we don't actually live on Kauai, but my wife and I are here because she started a three month assignment at Wilcox Hospital. As soon as I found out that they sold their coffee in the hospital cafeteria I texted her to let her know. So I pick her up at the end of the day and she tells me, guess what, I had the most amazing coffee at the hospital called Rainbeau Jo's! She didn't even read my text! (Typical). And she's super picky when it comes to coffee. So I know it's good! This is just one of those places you HAVE TO come to. It just doesn't get any better than this place'. They are amazing! read more

Aloha Spirit is overflowing here in Lihue! Beau and Jo both working their elbow grease to the bone with glorious precision, from the moment I first entered their pinkified space, I was greeted with a warm welcome, smiles and instructions for ordering. Their cozy space was packed with happy customers including repeat customers flashing their pink rewards cards and RainbeauJo app! I think there's even a drive-up window because I saw them providing service out of a back window. I'm downloading the app now to return for this delicious everything bagel with cream cheese, and pesto, and I will return to try every other bagel on their menu, simply delicious! read more

Greets every single guest with a smile, asks questions and genuinely wants to know the answers. Just exceptional. The drinks are great, too. I got an iced mocha with coconut milk. I couldn't taste the coconut too much but the espresso had a great flavor and it was a well balanced drink. My husband got an apple cruffin and a berry smoothie and he loved them both. Just a happy welcoming vibe. Definitely will be here many more times during our stay. read more
