    Dubai chocolate matcha
    Kayelin B.

    Got to try their Dubai chocolate matcha and it was delicious!!! Can't wait to go back and try more of their specialty drinks!

    Lemon Cupcake (soooo good), Taro Banana Bread (ono), Lemon Bar Match (nilla wafers on top) and Cinnamon Crunch Cold Brew

    Ok. This place can be hard to find if you are using maps. BUT, it is INSIDE the VA clinic in Kapolei, next to Costco. You gotta go in the main entrance, dont worry if you not military affiliated, and go left and walk all the way down the hall and its just before behavior health services. I have been wanting to try this place for a while. They are open when the clinic is open. So M-F till 3 pm and not on fed holidays. We ended up going two days in a row. They have a variety of drinks, and snacks (some from local vendors). The scones and lemon cupcakes are bomb. They also serve lunch though I have yet to try bc I work in PC. They do shut down their oven a little earlier than closing and wont be able to warm up your baked goods but that didnt affect us bc who really cares. I am a black coffee girl but decided it was a waste of money when my hubs and I go on coffee dates to just get black coffee. I had been seeing their Lemon Bar Matcha online and it met the mark. So worth the buzz. My hubs got Cinnamon Crunch Cold Brew. It was good too. On our second visit my husband got the Chocolate Coconut Cold Brew (bc I suggested it bc I really wanted it) and it was way better than what I ended up ordering (what was it... Mango Matcha). Staff is hit or miss but that seems to be true where ever you go so whatevs. I will still return to get more.

    This is a Family owned spot! Such nice people !! Support your locals and vets at the same time!

    Grande size hot caramel macchiato made with local coffee beans for $5 and some change.
    Jaelyse R.

    Drink cost & quality: got a hot caramel macchiato--strong coffee and not too sweet. (For reference, I find McDonalds latte type drinks are WAY too sweet, and a Starbucks white mocha too sweet.) $5.xx for what looks like a grande size. That's a steal, especially considering what I pay for one drink at 'bucks, and they use their own locally grown coffee beans. I'll be back. Parking: Free parking in a large open air lot. Location: Across the railroad tracks (Kalaeloa side, not Campbell Industrial side) behind Costco Kapolei and the courthouse, at the VA Center. Getting to the cafe: Adding pics if going to new places makes you nervous, like me. Enter through the automatic doors under the big "VA" sign by the roundabout and hit the hallway that heads left. Once you're inside, you should see A-frame Cafe signage so you know you're heading in the right direction. There are attendants by the entrance if you need to ask where to go. And NO, you do not need a military ID to get in. Seating: the cafe itself doesn't have seating but it looks like there is some outdoor space with tables and chairs, if you aren't already there for an appointment at the clinic.

    This cozy little cafe is just what I needed. Their hidden away (I'm sure not for long) in the Daniel Akaka Veterans center in Kapolei across of Costco. Let me just tell you, once you smell the coffee coming down the hallway, you just know it's going to be amazing. The business is both locally and veteran owned and the couple is amazing! They are so welcoming and their staff is there to answer any questions you may have. I tried their orignal affogato (my first time) and then the Hawaiian Mud Pie (feat. Dave's ice cream) the second time. We also tried their pork Adobo bowl which was a nice portion, the meat soft and moist and the rice at the perfect ratio to the serving of Adobe. My favorite though, the clam chowder! With a side dinner roll! You can't go wrong! Something with every bite, not too watery or too chunky. It was so ono and I can't wait to go back again!

    They're not kidding…read more.. First thing you walk in is a wall of cupcakes of all kinds and let me tell you each and every one of them are just a work of art. I decided to swing by since I was in the area and looking for some cake...no they don't have cake here but they do have cupcake lol and it was for a event that Fishcake in Kaka'ako had was "Take one leave one...but make it cake". Where we trade trinkets and bring cake where they provided plates and utensils but we had to cut the cake so instead I thought of bringing something already cut for convenience Banana Bread :) oh yes and with chocolate chips it was either that or cupcakes, brownies or cookies lol why bother stray from the usual and bring a yummy treat. Well that have that and so much more than I realize if it was cupcakes it would probably be green tea, lilikoi, pistachio...maybe strawberry lemonade or German chocolate omg the selection is quite incredible and I wasn't prepared for it. The staff is very helpful and friendly with all our questions and I love that everything is at your convenience to see without asking and with lots of free parking getting here is easy and yes a piece of cake. Thank you!

    This place has so many treats and options it's amazing! Service was quick and efficient and there's…read morelots of parking available. I got to try a bunch of different items and my ranking is below 1. Banana Chantilly Cupcake 5/5 2. Pistachio cupcake 2/5 3. Red velvet cupcake 2/5 4. German chocolate cupcake 5/5 5. Chocolate covered chocolate chip cookie 3/5 6. Lilikoi bar 10/5 My cupcake 4 pack was kinda a mixed bag. I'm wondering if that comes down to personal preferences more than anything else. About $17 for the 4 pack though so I can honestly only recommend banana chantilly and German chocolate so far. I would skip the cookie because they have so many other options but I'm relieved I only bought one and not the whole bag. Finally I have to say the Lilikoi bar was delicious. One of the best I've ever had. Totally worth the price and would absolutely purchase again. Shop is cute and clean. Next on my list Mac nut brownies!!

    Tonight I was served at the bar by Rob and Kelcey. Both were extremely helpful and made sure my…read moreglass was never empty. Rob told us the evenings specials and both sounded delicious. My husband and I started with a beer and a cocktail with the crab artichoke dip. The appetizer was delicious and hot. We ran out of bread and were able to get another serving of house bread easily and quickly. Beers tried were: Howzit's Hawaiian Time, and Hana Koa's Rice Breaker x2. He enjoyed both. Cocktails tried were: Thai Gimlet, Doctor's Orders, and a tequila cocktail that a regular suggested a float of mezcal with. All were delicious, unique, and approachable. I've managed a few bars, and I can say with full confidence that their cocktails are fairly and affordably priced, delicious and well built. For our entrees, we enjoyed the Chicken Parmesan (husband) and Seafood pan roast. My husband left nothing on his plate, and I asked for a takeout container for the remnants of my sauce- it was THAT GOOD. Our experience, dishes, and beverages from Kalapawai Kapolei has always left us happy and full, the staff is why we keep coming back. Props to everyone and thank you for our wonderful experience on our rare night out

    I'm a fan of this franchise as a whole…read more Needed some food quick, and I know they're pretty consistent. Ordered the Wagyu beach burger, and a Jarritos. Jarritos - appx $2. Great. Wagyu burger? $22. No problem until it came to the table. That patty definitely came out of a box. Dang. $22 for a frozen, boxed patty!?! BOO AND HISS. You can get ground steak mixed with bone marrow for $17 plus fries at Burger Bar IN WAIKIKI. How could a boxed burger possibly be more expensive in Kapolei? Fries would have been an added cost. Thought about grabbing the chocolate ganache brownie, but it looked like it had been sitting. :: sigh :: 3 stars for personable staff.
