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.
This must be the place is the song that comes to mind when I think back to this spot! The owner is incredibly nice and enhances the whole experience of grabbing yourself a delightful treat. The line moves quickly and we had our coffees in no time. Our coffees were surprisingly good, strong and just the fuel we needed to kick off another day in paradise.
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!
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!
The food was 10/10 delicious. You gotta get the Cowabunga Brah. I love the decor inside and everyone who works there was so friendly. Our food and drinks came fast and with a smile. You gotta stop here and then go back again! There's an amazing wall to take a selfie or group photo in front of too!
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!
First time in Kauai and the birthday celebration continues--LOL! First stop: coffee, of course. Thank goodness for friends who share their itinerary--because I was seriously craving a macadamia nut latte with oat milk. My little entourage ordered their own mix of drinks, but mine hit the spot. The owner? Super friendly and straight-up comedy. Definitely a hit in my books!
The service is EXCELLENT. A couple owns this joint and they are so friendly and kind. They offer suggestions to visit for tourist which is really sweet. I get the feeling that they sincerely want you to enjoy your time on the island. The coffee is really good too. Very smoothe coffee. They have tons of options for coffee beverages. If my trip were longer, I'd definitely come back. Such a cute place to hang out with a friend and catch up while enjoying a cup of coffee.
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!
A coffee and bagel GEM so close to airport. A must visit right after you arrive, as you make your way to depart, or just when you are in town. The owner is super friendly and he makes the entire experience pleasant. Salty wahine and lucky charm latte are just delicious drinks. And the Cowabunga Bagel with everything bagel is THE BEST bagel I've ever tasted in my life! I swear it's that good. They really smothered the bagel with the tastiest garlic feta dill cream cheese.
Absolutely awesome little joint! Once a food truck now their own cafe, Beau and Jo are husband and wife owners of this adorably pink and lively coffee joint. Must try the KIAWE BEAN bagel--it's deliciously sweet and savory and the perfect combo with the brah-vocado sandwich. This place is bright and happy and the staff are just the same. Highly recommend if you're in the area looking for high quality coffee and great vibes. read more
Coffee & food in a fun, high energy environment. We stopped in for coffee and breakfast and were impressed by the baked goods options. Award winning croissants and artisan bagels definitely met our expectations. We're typically egg/bacon sandwich type people for breakfast so if you're looking for meat and eggs go elsewhere, but for vegetarian or light breakfast options this is a great spot. The guy working the counter was very friendly had clearly had his coffee that morning - welcoming and warm id recommend stopping in. read more
First off, the ambiance and location is so darn cute! Second, the service is so friendly and welcoming. They are so nice here and they work so hard. They were short-staffed but still took the time to explain to my boyfriend and I the different options on the menu. They had so many yummy options as well as seasonal specials, so it was hard for us to decide what to get. They even gave us recommendations for must-see waterfalls while we are on the island. The food we ordered included a Cowabunga (special) on rosemary bagel and a Bravocado on kiawe seed bagel. Both were soooo yummy and the perfect amount of food. We also shared a 16 oz cold brew and it tasted amazing. The coffee was definitely high quality. read more
The service here was phenomenal, the gentleman who took our order had amazing energy and took the time to recommend nearby places for us to visit. The coffee was also very tasty, my boyfriend and I both tried seasonal lattes and thought the flavors came through really well. read more

10/10! During our stay in Kauai, we stopped by every day we could! First of all, the kindness/atmosphere is exquisite! The people could not be more kind and amazing at what they do! The drinks we got were also amazing! I got a Kauai sunrise smoothie, the funky monkey, and a Mac nut latte- they were all so good! The milk they use is of the highest quality. I love this place and hold it dear to my heart! Wish em nothing but the best and cannot wait to be back! read more

The owners are so friendly and you can tell they LOVE their shop. From the adorable logo and the ways they use it in their stickers and merch to the overall vibey aesthetic of the building. I got the salty wahine latte, it is SO good. I also got the cinnamon raisin bagel with the strawberry cream cheese and that was also delicious. They even recommended two waterfalls for us to go see. It's busy but worth the wait!!! read more

Go to Rainbeau Jos if you need to brighten your day. We came here on our last day and I wished we had gone on our first! We were pleasantly greeted with the most energetic man at the front. His joy was contagious and he immediately asked us what we were doing in Kauai and gave us some recommendations on coffees. The interior is bright pink and filled with plants, graphic art and ads for animal shelters which really got me! Whoever owns Jos seems to really care about helping people out and I love to support a place that does this. On our way out the man at the register also gave us some recommendations of a close by waterfall we should stop by! I got the Salty Dog where proceeds go to a local animal shelter and it was DELICIOUS. It was very sweet, but to be expected as there is ice cream involved! It was the perfect sip of salted caramel frappe I have ever had. My only regret is that I didn't find the place sooner! read more

On a day trip to Kauai for an event, I had time and wanted great coffee and breakfast. That's exactly what I got here! Rainbeau Jo's is on Rice St in Lihue, conveniently located near other businesses and points of interest in town. They have plenty of parking in the rear or street parking outside. It's a quick drive near the airport, so a great first stop while visiting too. The coffee shop has an eclectic mix of 1950s vibes with modern and neon, plus lots of plants. They have indoor seating with big tables, small ones, and bar seating along the windows, plus outdoor umbrella tables and a few more out back. The place was busy when I visited, but it barely seemed to matter thanks to their efficiency and care. It's a popular spot for good reason. Service is amazing, with I believe Beau, running the counter and being genuinely friendly and excited to serve everyone. They have a big menu of coffees and other drinks, local baked goods, and toppings. The produce is always local and I can say it was one of the best tomatoes I've ever had in Hawaii. I had an everything bagel with cream cheese and cracked pepper, plus a cold brew black coffee. Prices are reasonable for being local and the quality. Mahalo too for the sticker swap! If you're visiting Kauai and a fan of coffee and baked goods, you won't find better! read more

ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE!!!! Beau and Jo were so friendly and made sure every customer felt special and more than welcomed. The coffee was absolutely delicious and we are from Vegas so we love good coffee. He took his time with us even though there was a long line and made the environment very upbeat and happy. Such a cute cafe and will definitely be coming back next time we visit Kauai. Love seeing fellow family-owned businesses thriving! read more

Favorite coffee and bagel place on the island. (A little disappointed as their bagel distributor stopped making the jalapeño cheddar .) Been coming here for at least 8 years- always been great. The owners are always so friendly and fun. We love the new brick and mortar location. Last time we were here it was under construction still. If you are on Kauai- coming here is always worth the drive or time! read more

A random visit to this coffee shop changed my life. I came in because I saw online that they had vegan options. I informed the cashier of my allergy and he explained the various vegan options and helped me decide which to choose. He was also extremely kind and asked me what I was doing in Kaua'i. I told him I planned to hike, he wrote down multiple hiking trails that he recommended. I ended up going on one, and it was hands down the best hike I've ever been on. In addition, my food and beverage came out in under 5 min. The smoothie and bagel was clearly fresh and organic, and the tea was clearly actually brewed rather than a mix. I will definitely come back next time on the island! read more

Rainbeau Jo's was another one on our must try list. We were greeted & welcomed in with amazing Aloha energy & singing by the man behind the register as I opened the door and our family walked in. I had to sing back lol the vibe, energy, & service was great. My latte and bagel was a bonus cause it definitely hit the spot. The line got long fast but their service was fast. I love that they support other small local businesses with the merch they sell. I highly recommend Rainbeau Jo's & will definitely be back the next time we visit. read more

I'm not much of a Yelp reviewer, but I feel the need to contribute to Rainbeau Jo's 5 star rating simply because I had such a positive experience. Yes, the line was long and they are currently short staffed; however, the owner's warmth, positive energy, and kindness alone was enough to make the visit well worth it. The owner worked the register and interacted with every customer that walked through the door. Constantly thanked everyone for their patience and guided them through the menu. All the staff were also very friendly and looked genuinely happy to be there. The shop itself is so cute and fun, I appreciate all the little touches they made to make it such a lively environment! Now, even though their matcha latte wasn't on the menu this time, luckily, the owner was kind enough to let me order it, and it was exceptional. They use real, high quality matcha powder (none of the fake sugary stuff), and I was able to adjust the sweetness and add flavoring to it! I went ahead and added macadamia nut flavoring to mine and asked for it to be less sweet so I could still taste the matcha. It was creamy, balanced, and just perfect. I also tried their Polihale Stinger bagel special, and that was also soooo delicious! I could go on and on.. I visited Rainbeau Jo's for the first time on my last day on the island, and it was the perfect last stop before my flight home. Wish I had the chance to visit sooner to try more items on their menu, but I will definitely make it a point to come to Rainbeau Jo's anytime I'm in Kauai! Mahalo!!! read more

Rainbeau Jo's is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly friendly and full of energy. They must have spotted us as tourists because they went above and beyond, offering us amazing recommendations for beaches and waterfalls to explore on the island. Their local knowledge made our trip even more special. Now, let's talk about the coffee--hands down the best I had during my entire stay! The menu was a bit overwhelming with so many options, but they helped walk me through. The cozy atmosphere combined with the welcoming staff made it more than just a coffee stop; it was an experience. I also had a lox bagel that surprised me at first with its presentation (not the typical lox bagel presentation), then its taste (delicious!). If you're visiting the island, you have to stop by Rainbeau Jo's. It's the one place I wanted to re-visit to try out something else on their menu. Unfortunately it happened to be closed the next day. Until next time! read more

The friendliest service ever! Great tasting coffee. Staff were over the top kind and energetic. I loved their energy. They gave us tons of recommendations for local spots for us to visit since we are from out of town. Also, I haven't used a hula hoop since I was a kid and I still have it in me! So fun that they had them out back for the customers to use. Also, there is limited parking directly next to the coffee shop or all along rice street. read more

Love the energy here! Super cute ambiance with a trendy vibe. Great service with a genuine smile and love the work ethic. They know their regular customers well and are vested in them. We did not eat food but we came for coffee and we were not disappointed, my kids loved their berry smoothies and my funky monkey is the joint! This place is a whole vibe, I even love the toilet tissue. read more

Stopped in on a whim, and I'm glad I did! From the outside, this place looks unassuming, but the inside was a fun surprise. Even though it was busy, we were greeted with lots of energy. The drinks and food came out pretty quick for how busy it was. The bagels were delicious and the specialty lattes were amazing! I'm not a huge coffee fan, but I do love egg nog, and I was pleasantly surprised at how balanced the flavors were. read more
