    With each location brings the uniqueness... This Teapresso Express is just that a tiny place that serves up some yumminess and so much more. Never have I seen a location that serves up not just desserts but Vietnamese bentos and sandwiches...a lot of it ready to go that I got a bit overwhelmed as there's so much going on. What also seems different here as well is their original sugarcane drink even making it flavored as well...is this offered at other locations as well? Teapresso glassware is a love different from the mason jars these are a bit more cute love both the tall glassware with the sleeve as it looks so secure. The staff here is a delight making my drink just my way which is a peach black tea no boba light sweetness was super yummy and it had bits of dried peaches that I do love as it soften after each sip I just didn't expect it at all. There's no seating in this tiny nook but there are some tables provided by Bishop Square outside, and early birds are in for a treat as they serve coffee for $0.99 from 7am to 10am talk about a good morning! Thank you!

    Sour sap iced tea
    Joyce L.

    I tried their cold brew recently and it was good. It was definitely smooth and satisfying especially after lunch. So I came the next day had another one. And then I saw a sour sap with jasmine iced tea sign on the wall. On the third day, I tried their soup sap with real fruits in it. The only mistake I made was taking the small straw instead of the boba straw so I had to use a fork to grab the fruit. I'm a coffee addict but it was nice to try something different. I don't like sugary drinks so I asked for no sugar and sour sap was sweet enough naturally. $6 for healthy drink is well worth the try.

    Combo banh mi - rlly good!
    Pamela L.

    This location is out of the way for me because I don't live or work near downtown but used to visit their century center location and enjoyed their banh mi in the past. However, the last time I had their banh mi i ordered through delivery and it strangely had margarine in it. Couldn't finish it because the margarine had an artificial sweetness to it. Went back again today and was glad to see mayo again in the combo banh mi. I like that they add scallions or green onions to their banh mi but wish it was fresh rather than a scallion oil like it was today. I went later in the day so sadly they didnt have any summer rolls ready. I also had a house milk tea and the worker was very kind to remake it because I said the first drink was too sweet. I yelped and found that Alii place parking garage has cheaper rates than bishop square so I parked there and crossed the street. Will be frequenting here more for my banh mi fix now that I know where to park :)

    Crab cake banh mi
    Crystal R.

    My intentions for this place was for that boba fix but for some reason, this time I was drawn to the food. While waiting in line to place my initial order of a taro milk tea with coffee jelly (which I recommend), the banh mi was calling my name. I noticed that one of the specials was a crab cake banh mi which made me instantly want to try as I usually go for a chicken banh mi. For $11.99, the banh mi consisted of three small crab cakes, cilantro, pickled carrot & daikon, lettuce, tomato, and sauces. The bread was nice and crunchy however, the sauces made the banh mi a little too messy. Although it didn't deter me from eating all of it. It was perfectly seasoned with the right amount of crunchiness of the bread and vegetables. There a little hint of spice but it didn't overpower the dish. What fell short for me was the crab cake as it didn't taste that fresh and had that strong crab smell. The crab cake also fell apart and it didn't bring any texture to the dish. I'll give this place another try for a different banh mi. Overall I would still go there for their teas whenever I would crave for boba during my work week. They also have a rewards program which at this time I was able to redeem a free drink so it worked out for me. Originally wanted tea but ended up getting lunch and a free drink.

    Business is located at Bishop Square which is located on after Aloha Sushi and before Lox of Bagel. This location is the only location where 1 employee makes all the food and 2 employees who makes the drinks. My 2 co-workers had been here before and recommended summer roll with shrimp. She said that they had the cheapest price in downtown. Per employee, food were prepared and available by 9:00 am. They included summer roll with shrimp and some other foods. My order was summer roll with big pieces of shrimp and fishcake banh mi. Fishcake banh mi is kind of pricey but has good taste. Summer roll was worth it with big pieces of shrimp. On my next visit, I hope to try other food including dessert.

    a sandwich and iced coffee

    Teapresso is my favorite boba shop in downtown. I have tried a few different flavors, but the crème brûlée milk tea is definitely my go-to. Their banh mi is both filling and delicious. My favorite is the teapresso special banh mi. The addition of jalapeño (optional) gives it that kick you need a lunch time to get your through the rest of the day.

    I love this Teapresso Express! They make yummy Banh Mi and Thai ice tea! When I have errands in downtown, I always get my lunch there! Easy access by the bus and lots of outside tables!

    iced Vietnamese milk coffee
    Hannah O.

    Iced Vietnamese Milk Coffee - there are no words to describe how good that first sip of iced viet coffee hits when you're running on fumes. I haven't tried anything else here but the viet coffee is worth coming back for.

    Ordered tofu summer roll. Waited for 5 minutes and I was told to come back later on because they have a food inspection going on. Notice one lady yelling at the other lady due to issues on food temperature. Not a good way to start, I'll come back when they get it together.

A great high-protein, lower-carb way to start the day! The salad had a nice variety of colors, textures, and crunch from the pistachios and onions. It also came with a small cup of sweet and savory dressing that tied everything together beautifully. The smoked ahi spread was fresh, flavorful, and not overly fishy. It was served with a slice of freshly toasted garlic bread that was warm, fragrant, and perfectly crisp without being overly toasted. // Wailua Moana Açaí Bowl So refreshing! Easily one of the best açaí bowls we've had. The texture was thick and smooth with a great balance of fresh fruit, crunchy granola, and healthy fats from the nuts. Every bite was delicious. // Matcha We ordered both the regular matcha latte with coconut foam and the strawberry matcha latte. I was so disappointed they no longer offer the lilikoi matcha- I know that flavor combination would've been amazing! Hopefully they bring it back someday. The matcha itself was on the lighter side compared to richer ceremonial matchas, but it was still smooth, well-balanced, and not at all astringent. It paired really well with the oat milk, and both drinks were enjoyable. There was a line out the door during breakfast/brunch hours, which shows just how popular this place is. Despite the crowd, the service was friendly and efficient, and we were able to grab a small table to dine in. It's located on the upper level of the Royal Hawaiian Center, making it a convenient stop while shopping in Waikiki. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu (hoping the lilikoi matcha will make a comeback too)!

I ordered at the register, and she made my drink immediately. I was intrigued by their Haupia Matcha Latte. I love all things Haupia, so it seemed like the perfect match. I got the Haupia Matcha Latte with Oat Milk, and it was superb. I loved how creamy it was, how the sweetness of the haupia shone, but the earthiness of the matcha was still there. I'd definitely recommend this drink and am curious about their others. Hello Again is a nice cafe addition to Chinatown. With all the cafes in the area, it's worth a visit if you're a matcha lover like me. Find the cafe off Nuuanu Ave., unassuming on the outside but nicely sized once you go in!

    Super late review -…read more I'm sad. I really wanted to love this place but I just couldn't. I don't want to be that person when this place has an overall rating of 4.5 but this is just my honest opinion. I got the blue dream and yes it was very ascetically pleasing, but it was just too icy. Before coming to this place i read a couple of reviews that also said the same thing and i didn't understand what that meant, but now I do. There are a lot of flavorless, just regular, small shards of ice in the bowl. On top of that, the moment I received my bowl, it was already borderline melted. So that got me thinking, how can it be melted and icy at the same time? The only explanation that I can think of is just ice additive/fillers. It's not pure cold acai or whatever is in the bowl you choose, but there's a mixture of ice in it too. Yes I understand, it's Waikiki, everything is more expensive, but the added topping prices on top of the already expensive bowl prices just don't make sense. You want a beautiful looking bowl with a lot of different toppings, yet some toppings can go up to 1 dollar PER topping. I don't know if I've just been spoiled by a couple places in SoCal, but at those places they have unlimited toppings and those bowls are the best that there is. I'm not bringing any bias from other locations, but this is just an honest review based on my experience today.
