Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

This was on Monday, May 11, 2026, at about 5:30 a.m. There was a guy making my two Frappuccinos that I ordered through the mobile app. When I arrived, they hadn't been started yet. I waited patiently. It wasn't crowded, and there were three employees working. When the guy finally started on my drinks, he kept making negative comments about the recipe and ingredients (it wasn't even complicated) to his coworkers, which only delayed things more. Then, when he started the first drink, he kept adding stuff to the blender, dumping it out, and starting over. He did this three times in a row. I hit him with a "You aight, man?" and it clearly caught him off guard. He nervously said yes. I'm pretty sure that's when he realized the drinks he was messing up, critiquing, and delaying (including the "Pffft, I don't care" comment, which he really said) were mine. Hand to God, I tried to chalk it up to an early Monday morning. If the drinks came out fine, cool, Snoopy Happy Dance. But nope. Both drinks ended up tasting like unflavored ice with whipped cream, a sprinkle of toppings, and a little caramel syrup sitting at the bottom. Even though this location is right across the street from me, I'll gladly go somewhere else that can make the drinks correctly. I don't like going to SALT anyway. And that same guy making my drinks? A long‑time customer who watched him dump the ingredients three times told me he was surprised, because that employee has supposedly been there for a while. read more

Holiday cheers!!! Thank you to the team at the Kaka'ako Starbucks that's open literally every single day including today on Christmas Day and let me tell you they were shaking things up here with lots of drinks pouring in. The staff here are amazing so full of cheer and keeping the vibe so festive, thank you for keeping the doors open for someone like me who can have a place to relax and enjoy it all as I finally get to take a moment from this busy holiday and see Maddie who always rocks it here, thank you to the entire staff who are the merriest and bright. Merry Christmas! read more

I frequent this location because I work out at Orangetheory right next to it. Today I asked for a cup of water because I forgot my hydro flask. They told me they need a purchase to give a cup of water and cited company policy. It feels pretty crappy to be treated that way for a regular customer and just a human in general. Hope this dumb policy can be changed. By the way, there are bowls of water for dogs in front of many businesses, so essentially you are treating customers worse than dogs... read more

This is my neighborhood Starbucks, so every other Starbucks will get compared to this one. I love this location--the baristas are wonderful! Their service is top notch. They are all so friendly when I come in (almost daily) and I will say I'm also so happy to see their faces when I come in. Even if they are busy, the baristas manage to get the line moving and the drinks flowing. The food here is like any other starbucks, but what I do appreciate is that it's not SCALDING hot as sometimes they can be, especially with breakfast sandwiches. Now, I don't normally come in to sit around and do work, but I do love just being in this location. The baristas are truly like seeing friends, but there are so many seating options available for if you need to hang out and stay a while. The nice change to starbucks is that you will actually get a mug and plate if you stay for food and a drink while dining inside. There are a few available outlets should you need to do some work. Weekends can get busy with the cruise crowds, but aside from that, it's generally very laid back and a pleasant spot to visit. read more

Great location for a quick coffee fill! Located in Salt Kaka'ako, its easy to see from the street. Lots of parking in front available for stays shorter than 30 minutes. Bathrooms on site as well as tables and chairs for those that need the space. Staff are nice & the service is pretty quick too! read more

The Starbucks on Ala Moana Boulevard and Coral Street in SALT, is probably the least hectic of the four locations that I frequent - all in town. I usually patronize early in the morning, before 0700. It is also the most courteous locale, as someone almost always greets me when I pick up my mobile order...my choice of transaction these days for Starbucks. Also, since using the app, I no longer have to deal with a misnomer of Don, Dean, or Jan ( I do not look Scandinavian or German ) and that is a small positive. Starbucks no longer charges for alternative milk; so get your coconut, almond, oat, etc. without the added cost. Their Holiday favors are out: Caramel Brûlée, Chestnut Praline, , Peppermint Mocha, Gingerbread, and Sugar Cookie. The first is the best but I have yet to try any iteration of Gingerbread...so, the Caramel Brûlée may yet be surpassed. Almost forgot about the Peppermint Mocha. Parking is avaialble - pay lot - but I usually find street parking - you don't have to feed the parking meters before 0700(?) so that is a plus. I enjoy their seasonal drinks. Starbucks is a corporate coffee chain so the quality will never be what you can get at a local artisinal coffee shop, where local products are used and ingredients made from scratch and while you wait. read more

Auntie Nadine and I came specifically to this location because she remembered that they had the Barbie pink tumblers. We were on our way to see the Barbie movie and decided to get matching cups. Luckily, we found a parking spot right in front of the store. They indeed had the pink tumblers. We each got one using our stars, so the cup came out to be around $3. The cashier was friendly. She asked about our pink outfits and the pink cups. We told her we were on our way to see the Barbie movie. She said she already saw it and the movie was a 10. I'm not sure we watched the same movie because I thought the movie was horrible. read more

Starbucks - Loads of "Hawaii Collection" cups - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

After I dropped off my work vehicle at the local Cutter Dodge Chrysler Jeep this morning, I decided to take a short walk down the street to this Starbucks coffee shop to get a cup of Joe for myself, as well as a cup for my coworker. As I walked into the coffee shop, I could clearly see that this coffee shop was pretty busy in the morning. Whether you go to this Starbucks in Kaka'ako, or another Starbucks in Ala Moana, or maybe even in Kahala...........more or less, they're all about the same as far as consistency of their drinks/food. What makes this Starbucks coffee shop in Kaka'ako a little different from the other Starbucks is service! After I placed my drink order for (2) plain coffees, I paid the clerk, then waited on the side - (and I made sure I wasn't in the way with any other customers who were waiting for their drink orders). While I was waiting for my coffees, I was observing the Starbucks workers, and for some strange reason, I totally got the impression that the workers here appeared to be unorganized??? Honestly, how difficult is it to pour two cups of coffee into two coffee cups? I didn't ask for anything fancy, all I wanted was just plain coffee, but the wait time to get my two cups of coffee was pretty ridiculous! Yeah, I get it that they were busy, but I think there are other ways that the staff can improve as far as working more efficiently. read more

Last time was here caught attitude from the person behind the counter and waited 25 mins for a cold brew - , this time they have a sign saying mobile orders only... and again waited a while for order despite the store being nearly empty ... def a below par starbucks in need of new mgmnt read more

I love this Starbucks. They validate parking if you need it, the drinks always taste the same ( consistency is everything) and my order is always correct. If I had one complaint about this store it's that it's a little hot in here! The air conditioning doesn't seem to work that well but other then that, this is one of my favorite Starbucks. Super pet friendly and hardly ever has a line. read more

Starbucks - Specials - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Starbucks Rewards Program is really good! I had three tasks to accomplish today and this Starbucks - near the corner of Ala Moana Boulevard and Keawe Street (SALT at Our Kaka'ako) - was able to accommodate me! 1. This was the last day of my Five-Day Starbucks Challenge. If I made a purchase five days in a row, I would get 150 bonus Stars! That's why I got the silver Disco tumbler here at SALT. I saw one at the Nu'uanu location and I regretted not buying it. 2. I wanted to redeem my coupon for a free drink. On Cyber Monday, if a customer bought something, a free drink would be loaded on the Starbucks app...yay! I got a free venti Chai Tea Latte! (I wasn't able to redeem this reward at the Target Ala Moana Starbucks because they aren't participating in the Rewards Program.) 3. Because I had over 400 Stars, I wanted to get a free tumbler. I saw one from the new Hawaii Collection that I wanted (the one with the papaya, pineapple, and banana design) and I scooped it up! I just paid a few dollars for it because 400 Stars = $20 in merchandise. Whew! I felt a real sense of happiness because this was like a one-stop shop! The cashier was very knowledgeable, so, all three transactions went smoothly! Thanks to Starbucks for a fun Rewards Program! Now I will go to the app, "shake the snow globe" on the virtual game, and hope I win Starbucks for Life! read more

Time for another update. To the manager: Looks like we have a bunch of new staff here (again) which SHOULD be a good thing but it really isn't when it comes to this Starbucks. Once again, we must pray that wel get the items we ordered (accuracy doesn't seem to be important) with the right ingredients and toppings. You won't. Once again, we must pray that we won't be late for work, when you ORDER AHEAD and the SB App shows 18 - 22 min wait. They even have a pop up window that show up on the app that brags about the ACCURACY of the estimated time. LOL I'm so happy that the 18 - 22 min estimated wait time is now accurate and a reality. Yeah, no. Once again, we must pray that the staff would stop chit chatting and that the newbie baristas will make multiple drinks at a time instead of one by one. Multi-task! Once again, we must pray that no matter which barista is making your food or drinks, that they will one day realize that CONSISTENCY is important. I shouldn't get a oatmeal SOUP one morning, and then practically NO liquid oatmeal ball the next. Consistency. RE-TRAIN each and every one of the new ones here, please. read more

After 5 days at sea, I was thrilled to enjoy a well made Starbucks. I visited Pike's place 2 weeks ago, and they could learn customer service from here. Cinnamon Dolce Latte was available and seating was sparse. Luckily customers were amenable to New York style. The coffee washed away the stench of nicotine and erectile dysfunction I witnessed from Army security. I was grateful to see Pearl Harbor and Navy Integrity. read more

Starbucks - Pearl Harbor - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I recently came here this past weekend to kill some time. I decided sacrificing precious sleep time so I could have my car serviced on an early Saturday morning. I dropped my car off at about 645am and was advised approximately a 2-hour turnaround. Prior to this car appointment, I tried to coordinate a breakfast get together with my sister and her family. I pretty much knew her answer but still tried to convince my sister and family to wake up early to meet me for breakfast. They quickly declined. End of story. I stood at the corner of Queen and South Street and at first, was planning on walking over to New Queen's BBQ for their breakfast special plate. I was half-awake and the thought about shoveling food into my mouth seemed like too much work. I relied on my Yelp app and decided to find the nearest Starbucks for some much needed coffee. My initial instinct was to walk over to the one at Ward Ave but I realized this location was closer to me. Located in SALT at Kaka'ako, this Starbucks is on Ala Moana Blvd sandwiched between popular eateries of Highway Inn and Moku Kitchen. It didn't take much time for me to get here by foot. It was semi-muggy that morning so when I arrived, I decided to have a cold one over hot. After glancing at the menu, I chose the iced brew with milk and 2 pumps. I'm not sure if the AC wasn't running on full capacity or if I'm going through male menopause as I found myself awfully warm. It was still fairly empty when I arrived so it didn't take much time for me to get my coffee. Shortly after sipping on my cold drink, this Starbucks eventually got busy with heavy foot traffic - - adults, children and quadrupeds. But the staff here were quick in executing the drinks, including the mobile app orders. While reading on my phone, I was pleasantly surprised of the music from the 80's and 90's being played. It sure caught me off guard and brought back some great memories of the past. I was sure enjoying listening to the music and using multiple apps on my phone and then, the next thing I known I received a phone call from my auto service consultant that my car was ready for pick up. Overall, I found this Starbucks very satisfying. The staff here were courteous and friendly, and I enjoyed killing time here with a cool drink. It would have been better if the AC was turned on a bit higher but nonetheless, a happy customer. I definitely will keep this place in mind should I be in the area. Solid 4 STARS from me. 2019 #45 read more

Starbucks - Iced Brew - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Omg this Starbucks is the slowest service ever!! I had put my order in advance 15 mins ahead and my order was supposed to be ready by 0637 it's 0645 and I'm still waiting....there's a bunch of workers like 5 or 6 but they're just talking amongst themselves and moving very slow. I've seen some SB with just 2 workers pump out drinks faster than these guys! Never order from this Starbucks, Ala Moana and Coral st. if you have to go to work!! It's like they just don't care about the Starbucks reputation. ‍ read more

The Starbucks in Kailua by the shop center near maui tacos was so so On Saturday sept 30 2023 Cashier was nice enough he was wearing a cute face mask The tall slender guy making the drinks was rude had the "I don't like my job" Attitude I asked him did u add the 2 pumps sugar free Vanilla to my tea (they always forget) His response was I did Mam !! He seemed annoyed We won't be going back there anytime soon Employees like him give Starbucks a bad Reputation Thankfully most of the Starbucks in town have Friendly professional staff read more

They seem to be having problems staffing and stocking this location. They're often out of a lot of food items and sometimes randomly closed during regular business hours due to staffing issues. Not very convenient for me as I work nearby and used to count on being able to stop by on my way to work for a bite to eat or a drink. Well, now I just go stop by somewhere else that I know will be open and have everything available. :/ Feels a bit like corporate has abandoned this location or something, which makes no sense bc it's a great spot. Not sure, but if they're having problems w staffing, perhaps they are not providing adequate compensation? I imagine Starbucks co is not exactly hurting for money. read more

This place is walkable from the port. We came in on a Princess ship and I really wanted a You Are Here mug. Unfortunately, they didn't have the Waikiki mugs, but they did have the Hawaii ones. So that was nice. Service was quick and the place was clean. Did not have time for a drink, but was really happy to get my mug. It's not a super short walk from the port, so if you have any mobility issues take a taxi. read more

No outlets here, which sucks for someone like me working on the road. Stop giving starbucks your money. Also, the worker talked me out of a food item because she didn't want to walk 50 ft to the refrigerator to see if there were any more of the food item i wanted. I was gonna let that go but then my drink came out wrong, so why am I even here again? I rather pay more at a smaller coffee business. read more

Ever since they started mixing the online orders with the in store orders the situation at this Starbucks has gone downhill. I used to be in and out for a coffee and a sandwich in 5 minutes. Now it is regularly taking fifteen and the sandwich is just sitting next to the machine getting cold half of that time. They have some serious logistic and organizational issues to work out. read more

My family and I stopped by the location at 680 Ala Moana Boulvard this morning, September 1 at about 6:20 am and gave our order. It took at least 10 minutes for my husband's coffee order to be done. Although it was busy, most of the people behind the counter seemed scattered and not paying much attention to orders. A coffee order, unless it is a bit fancy, should be very easy. Take the order, customer pays, pour the drink, on my way. Very disappointing experience at that location read more

Why did I have to wait 15+ minutes for my large coffee? Unacceptable! Something that should take 30 seconds to pour. No customer should be left waiting for a plain ol' large coffee. read more

Well. It's a Starbucks, I really don't know what to say about it. I'm personally not a big coffee drinker, but the service is always great and fast. Some of the drinks I tried were just downright disgusting but that's my fault for randomly picking from the menu because I had no idea what these drinks were except for standard Frappuccino. I know what that is. I literally know nothing about Starbucks signature drinks or whatever. Hot Cocoa is a solid go for me. Maybe it's because I have a sweet tooth... Nevertheless, I had to realize that a "tall" size was a smaller cup not a bigger size. Oops ‍ LOL. Live and learn read more

Starbucks - Hey Fall season in my mouth - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

There's only so much one can say about Starbucks. It's a world-wide brand, if you haven't been to one, that's amazing! They're consistent, with nice lighting, calming music, and lots of drink choices. I'm not a huge coffee lover, but I do enjoy their Teavanna iced and shaken teas. Especially refreshing in summertime, I find myself craving their dark and strong flavors more than your average bottled tea. Be sure to check out the Starbucks app for free food and drink offers and to save points. This particular location is in SALT Kaka'ako among all the other modern businesses including restaurants and shops. Starbucks is a necessary place, sometimes you just need what they sell. They have some seating, but it's mostly geared to people working than those seeking a big comfy couch. Also, they have quite a few outdoor umbrella tables in the SALT courtyard. The staff here is friendly and very fast; my app orders are ready before the estimate. Parking is free with validation in the lot or garage; street and free parking is found in the neighborhood. They have very long hours, so it's easy to pick up an early morning coffee, tea or soda in the hot Kaka'ako sunshine, or late night snack. read more

Quality of the drinks are fairly poor. The espresso taste old and watered down. I tried to give them multiple chances but it never seems to get better. I get the same drink every time (and it's a regular drink in the menu, not something complicated) and it's good at other Starbucks, but this one always taste like it's poorly made. read more

We've been frequenting SALT At Our Kaka'ako for some time to either quench our drinking "needs" and check out new dining options. Slowly but surely, this complex has been opening new businesses which make the Kaka'ako neighborhood more hip and vibrant. Our go-to Starbucks is at the Ala Moana Hotel for its spacious and even brighter ambiance BUT for convenience sake, this location is located within walking distance from our new home. The baristas are friendly and take the time to talk to you if you're open to conversation. Also, we've not had any issue with the flavor of our coffee beverages that we've ordered. It is dimly lit like other Starbucks and there are plenty of electrical outlets and free Wi-Fi. Their shelves appear to be well-stocked and orderly with the typical Starbucks merchandise. We've noticed that this location isn't as crazy busy as others that we've been to but maybe it's because we've been there at odd hours or that people don't like to have to pay for parking. Which ever the reason, we're going to be making this location a regular part of our dining rotation. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

This location.. I tell you! Let me start of by For the most part they get my mobile order ready by the time I get there but there's been a handful of times where I had to wait for my drinks to which I ordered 10-15 mins ahead of time. And when you get to the store.. their staff is not the friendliest either. Pouting and just grouchy. And take their sweet time. Often times, I find myself looking at my watch in queue to tell them to start increasing the pace because people are waiting. As if we owe it to them. Wouldn't even crack a smile. To sum it up.. so HIGH MAKA MAKA and stand offish. The management in this location needs to train their staff to have a little bit more of FRIENDLY COSTUMER SERVICE. And yes! I can compare because, the SB shops that's near my house and the one in Nuuanu are really friendly and sweet. I only go to this location Ala Moana and Coral Street is because it's closer to work. read more

This location is without a doubt one of the worst I've been to so far. Mornings are always busy so i make sure to do online order before 7 or at least by 6:30 since i get there around 7. But even with a 30 minutes window and regardless of how busy they are, I always have to wait for another 30 just to get a single drink! I've been to quite a lot of busy locations but they still get my order out in time. I've given this location multiple chances but I don't think I ever want to order here again. read more

This is probably one of the worst Starbucks I have been too. It is a decent size Starbucks but tables are all dirty, and it seems understaffed for sure. There are bunch of homeless ordering just water and stay there for a whole day, asking people who come in and get in line for ordering to get a frappucinno or cupccino and stuff. There was another bum locking himself in the guy' bathroom to do whatever and he would not come out for over 30min. Meanwhile the girl's bathroom was disguating as well.....hair and toilet paper all over the floor. The toilet paper tossed around. When my friend told one of the bariatas that there was a bum just staying in the bathroom, he could not care less. read more

This is my go-to Starbucks...its conveniently close to my home and work...which makes it the perfect place to go for my pre-work coffee. It also makes it dangerous for my wallet as it seems like prices always increasing. The baristas are always friendly and the morning crew are able to recognize me (even though I always mobile order). The only reason why they don't know my order is because my order will change depending on my mood. Usually the baristas will get my order right...so the accuracy is on point. There is a lot of parking available, especially for those on the go as there are about 5 stalls right in front of the store that has a 20 minute max...perfect for those that mobile ordered their drink and are going to be in and out. For those that still play Pokemon Go...this is the ideal camping location because you're sitting on top of two gyms at this location. It's not as popular as 4 stops in Ala Moana, but a great spot to be in for battling. read more
