"Found this cute spot after being determined to try (almost) every coffee shop on this beautiful island. The place has great atmosphere. It's also super close to the beach if you want to grab and go. They have some fun food options if you feel like grabbing a quick bite but most importantly, the latte is great, indictating they use awesome beans and know what they're doing when they make you coffee. The Chai is also really good. Overall - love it and definitely recommend!"

"Cute little coffee shop with what I believe is the best coffee and food in Kapaa and maybe in all of Kauai from my experience. I ate here several times in my couple weeks there and was never once even slightly disappointed. The food was all delicious along with the coffee and smoothies and pastries. All 5 Star. The only thing is they lack some seating as almost always there were not enough seating but the community tables and ambiance is still super cute. The service was decent and the prices are higher than mainland but then again all Kauai is priced high."

"Service with a snarl and with a frown. Which is unfortunate! The coffee and bites are delicious. The branding is on point. But the motto of "Love, Aloha, Kauai" falls a bit flat. In our brief 14 minute visit, we had or observed at least 4 directly confrontational and antagonistic interactions. And the whole time, not a single staff member smiled. The curt interactions mostly occurred with 2 staff who were circulating about and engaging the customers, much to the disappointment of everyone inside during a busy morning rush. We had 2 x iced lattes, a croi-Sean-wich (exquisite by the way), and a breakfast burrito. All delightful. Perhaps there aren't many alternatives. The coffee and food are really good. And a little smile goes a long way."

"This place is so so aesthetically pleasing and cute! Good: - All the food is so beautifully presented here! - I loved the açaí bowl, the coconut flakes added a lot and it wasn’t too sweet! Huge portion size too - Wicked monkey smoothie was good, a little wonky so I wouldn’t get it again since it was sweet and bitter at the same time - The avocado toast here was really good! Super good texture and crunchy as well - The brekkie bowl was really pretty, loved the taste of papaya Bad: - The wait was pretty long for the food - Only outdoor seating, they ran out of spots inside Overall had a solid meal here, enjoyed the aesthetic the most."
