Their coffee has great flavor, with lots of options. It's bold, flavorful, and coming here is a great start to the day. They're also known for their açaí bowls. All their flavors look amazing. I've tried the classic and the one with Lilikoi and it did not disappoint. For such an amazing coffee spot in a prime location, be prepared for long lines and wait times for drinks during peak hours. Go earlier to beat the rush and also try their pastries before they sell out. There is both indoor and outdoor seating, and the space itself is quite spacious. Everyone who works there is extremely friendly. I know $8 for a latte is a bit pricey in theory, but I would choose Waikoloa Coffee literally any day over Starbucks.

It's that good. This little coffee shop does a lot of business. The line wasn't long though and they work quickly preparing the food with love and attention to detail. You can eat inside or out with lots of tables to choose from. The açaí itself was a bit soft, but I liked that it wasn't hard as a rock. The granola was great. The berries and banana were plentiful. The big scoop of coconut peanut butter was fabulous and the honey and chocolate on top were the crowning achievement. It was an A+ in my book, and that is saying a lot.

The 1st time we wanted to grab some mid-day coffees while shopping the plaza, the 2nd was to try one of Island Vintage Coffee's Açai bowls mid-afternoon. And the 3rd was for an Açai bowl for breakfast. Vanilla Latte (x2) Lilikoi Moana Açaí bowls (16oz & 24oz) The 1st and 2nd trip were both quiet inside the establishment, and the 3rd was super busy, so I imagine their mornings at their busiest ti.es to visit. The coffee's were standard Latte's but their Açai bowl was delicious; especially with the fress tropical fruit on top. The one kicker is their high prices for their pre-made" breakfast dishes. Their not in my opinion full meals, but you'd think it was buy the price. When I got the Açai bowl for breakfast we planned on getting one of those dishes but the price was off putting and we ate elsewhere.

We paid the extra for filling pumpkin cheesecake, banana cream and Bavarian cream. The fillings were very good but there was very little filling and you might have gotten one bite with filling.

They're very short and clipped, which I get because there were quite a few people in line, but when we went back up to ask a question, they were not willing to help until we (overtly and somewhat rudely) had to flag them down. Now, it seems like whoever is pouring the syrup is REALLY inconsistent. My shave ice was perfect. Well doused through and through without pooling in the bottom. However my mom's coconut was literally made with maybe a tablespoon of syrup. 80% of the entire ice had no flavor at all, and when we asked about it, they were quite rude saying "you can see some right here". So for that, you're kinda rolling the dice, I suppose. If it's close by, might be worth a shot, but I'd caution driving here form further away since it seems like you don't really know what you'll get. They also charge $0.52 for an extra empty cup, which seems a little chinsy to me.

I went to a LOT of coffee shops during our week on the Big Island, and I have to say, I was surprised by how annoyed some people seemed that tourists were actually there. Kind of comes with the territory when you work at a coffee shop in a vacation town, doesn't it? Not here. Everyone was genuinely nice, friendly and accommodating. The place itself is so cool, and the coffee was damn good. I figured Hawaiian coffee would be good, but this was easily some of the best coffee I had all week. If I lived anywhere near this place, I'd be here all the time. Thanks for such a positive experience. I have no idea when or if I'll ever make it back, but I wish you guys nothing but the best.

However there was zero aloha spirit coming from this place. If someone is spending 50-70 bucks in your store at least try to manage a little friendliness. People work their whole lives to visit the place you call home, and you're lucky enough to live there. We never have experiences like this with native Hawaiian or true local businesses who embody Aloha and all the reasons we love Hawai'i so much. Yes I'm a visitor, but I definitely wouldn't shop here if I was a local either. If you're having a tough time that's okay, we all have our days, but don't bring it to work where people are financially supporting your business with their hard earned money. Or- go out of your way to be unpleasant. Instant mood killer.
