Muggy day in Hilo and after a walk around Alaska Falls, I needed to quench my first. Luckily, when driven up to the falls, we saw a few shops all lined up. Luckily, one of them was The Hive. As soon as I parked and before checking the other stores, I put my order and they had a Butterfly Pea Tea combo. I had to have it and mew I was going to Yelp It. The iced tea hit the spot, not too sweet at all. While waiting for my drink, the one employee was making a chicken salad sandwich that looked really good. Btw, all menu items are reasonably my priced. The store is super cute. If u lived here, I would spend some quiet time here either studying or reading. It wasn't noisy at all. Very comfortable. No bathroom though, you'll have to walk down to the General Store for that. Thank you Hi e for the hospitality. read more

The Hive - Makai iced tea with jasmine green tea and butterfly pea flower tea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honomu, Hawaii

Cute little cafe near Akaka Falls with friendly service. Lots of fun drinks, cafe bites, and homemade crafts to browse while you wait. I tried "The Hawaiian" matcha with macadamia milk and pineapple syrup. My partner chose an unsweetened "Makai" tea, which was jasmine green tea with butterfly pea flower. Beautiful and refreshing drinks on a hot July day! read more

Beautiful cafe close to the goat dairy and akaka state falls. The lady inside the shop was working the hardest because she made drinks for a bunch of people who came in the shop before us and then still managed to make the best avocado sandwich I've ever had in my life. The combination of flavors was so good. The avocado itself was delicous and I'm Def gonna say Hawaiian avocados are the best in the world, so mild and buttery. The balsamic drizzle was so good with it and the presentation of the plate was absolutely beautiful, absolutely worth the price. The egg was perfectly cooked, a bit runny to drip down onto the bread. Our coffees were amazing as well. The honey girl was yummy. I loved this place and everything about it. read more

Cute little smoothie/drink shop before going to the Akaka Falls hike. My kids ordered the grilled cheese and though I'm the biggest sourdough fan my kids are not. They were thrown off by the yellow color of the bread. I took a bite of it for the benefit of the doubt and it was just an average grilled cheese to me. I ordered the chicken salad wrap and added bacon and avocado. The wrap is filled generously and is so delicious, my oldest who is a picky eater actually enjoyed it. The strawberry fields matcha was super refreshing after the hike. I'm not a matcha connoisseur but it was good enough for me. read more

Cute find in Honomu on our way to Hilo from Akaka Falls! We had a healthy lunch - chicken salad wrap and Mediterranean wrap with bacon, plus a couple of POG Shaka Teas. These wraps were healthy, light, satisfying and ono! We loved our impromptu lunch, and the service was friendly and helpful. Check out their beautiful patio space in the back where you can also enjoy your meal. They have cute gifts in their gift shop side. Lots of locally made cute things to buy! I bookmarked this place for the next time we are in the area. Mahalo nui loa! read more

Cute little cafe with plenty of aloha. Coffee was delicious and food looked amazing service was friendly. I look forward to coming back

cute and cozy cafe in the cutest town near Hilo. amazing sandwiches, drinks, and merchandise. loved the local art representation!

Cute cafe. Enjoyed the avocado toast. Very friendly and accommodating staff. On way to falls. Worth the stop.

The only blemish on this place is that they were out of several food and drink items. Other than that, fantastic! A superior choice to stop in on the way to/from Akaka Falls in the quaint town of Honomu. Cutesy gift shop with some miscellaneous items. Some seating inside. Right next to an old antique store that is worth a stop as well. Only hard thing is parking. There is minimal parallel street parking right in front of The Hive; otherwise park at the nearby Orthodox Church lot read more

Good espresso drinks and very friendly service. Wish we'd had a chance to try the food which sounded great from the descriptions. Very reasonably priced compared to many other places we've been to on the Big Island. Very chill vibe. read more

The food and coffee are good, the people are friendly, but the kitchen is tiny, and if there are orders ahead of you, your food order can take half an hour or more. read more

Amazingly fresh sandwich/ lunch alternatives . I have the sando and my wife had avocado toast . Both were so good we shared few words as we stuffed our faces of the deliciousness. read more

An absolute gem. The food and drinks are miles beyond what you'd expect from the modest setting. Their breakfast sandwich is a revelation. It takes some sort of magic to make something that basic feel like a signature dish! The coffee drinks are just as wonderful too. read more

Food was surprisingly good! We had an egg and cheese sandwich with pesto and hot honey on sourdough, and also grabbed an egg on cheese on an English muffin for the kids. Everything was hot and fresh. The eggs looked like whole eggs that were cracked and then properly pan fried instead of the yellow goo that's usually in breakfast sandwiches. Sourdough was perfectly crispy, pesto was a perfect accompaniment, and the hot honey added a nice little bite at the end. The store is cute with a mini shop wall to peruse while you wait. And wait we did... There were two women working when we went in, and they were soooo slooooowww. I think we waited 15-20 min as the only customers in the store. I'm trying to go with the Hawaiian time, but the kids were getting mighty squirmy... read more

It's pretty far from a lot of things, but if it was closer to Kona I would try to go everyday! The employees were super friendly and the strawberry matcha was delicious! You could definitely taste the quality of it instead of a "Starbucks matcha." It was bright green and you could taste the matcha! read more

THE place if you're hungry in Honomu.

So we stopped here to checkout the shops on our way leaving Akaka Falls. I needed a little pick me up and wanted to get my go to iced coffee. But I saw she had a lavender lemonade and a pineapple mint ice tea. I was so torn as I wanted something different then my go to. She suggested her lemonade and she totally knew what drink was up my husbands alley. She suggested some type of caramel coffee drink. My husbands drink was so good. I normally don't like super sweet drinks but this was the right amount of sweetness. And.......OH......MY.....GAAAAAAAWD!!!! My drink was ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL and it tasted as beautiful as it looked. And all the flowers and herbs she puts in the drink are edible. This is a newer business and I hope she is still here when we visit Big Island next time. Go and visit this place. You won't be disappointed. read more

This place is a GEM. I highly recommend stopping here. Such a peaceful atmosphere with a cute cat and geckos hanging out and beautiful plants all around in the back. The ladies working here are so kind and thoughtful. The food and drinks were just above and beyond. Absolutely delicious. It's been so hard for me to find a place that has a great atmosphere AND has great food and drinks worth the price - and The Hive is that place. Highly recommend the Da Honey Girl coffee and the Deluxe Avocado toast. I'm sure everything is great here, though!! read more

Trust me, this is the spot. Our coffees were perfect. Food, perfect. Flavors were new to us but now going to be something we look for elsewhere. Service was also impeccable. Drinks and food were quick and they even have a cat who greeted us with the best customer service I've seen from a non-human. Droopy ears and all haha Take a seat in the back patio. Your view is a walkway but it's Hawaii so of course it looks amazing. 10/10 all around. When we come back, The Hive is a must. Best little shop experience I've had. Seriously read more
