White Nene Coffee Roasters

"My God. This place is truly a treat. I was looking at other coffee.shops and I saw someone say go here instead. And I am so happy I did. My husband had their drip coffee black. What a smooth coffee with a wonderful sweet finish. I had the Lemonita Mocha. O wow! Best thing I've ever had. I am going back today. I need more."

"Best coffee I’ve had and am from Seattle. Beautiful outdoor seating in artist village above Kailua-Kona. Such friendly service. Ordered the spicy honey latte with oat milk…. Superb!"

"Hidden gem in the mountains! The special drinks are so unique, a couple of our friends got the iced Lemonita Mocha, Shaken Coconut Cold Brew, hot Spicy Honey Latte, Oatmilk Latte, and an Americano. The coffee was AMAZING. A rich blend of fruity, floral, and cacao-flavor hints(?) My personal favorite was the Lemonita Mocha, which was a bit sweeter, had a hint of lemon flavor and white chocolate, with coconut whip cream on top! Nothing like I’ve tasted before. A surprisingly good mix of flavors! The hot Spicy Honey Latte was also unlike anything I’ve had before! (and I’m from LA!) It starts sweet, becomes a bit bitter because of the coffee, and ends with a spicy aftertaste that lasts long. Other notes! The owner Mark is so friendly! There’s a bathroom. Cute shop with knick knacks to look at! Good vibes."

"THE coffee spot on the island! Regardless of if you are a purist and love a good pour-over to taste the terroir, if you are more traditional and prefer an espresso, or if you like sweet fun drinks, there will be something for you at Mark's place. There are decaf, oat milk, and a few options without coffee, like matcha or turmeric latte. You can can also buy bags of freshly roasted White Nene coffee! We liked the place so much that we were there daily during our trip. We have tasted approximately 80% of the menu, including the fall and holiday special menus, and everything was delicious. Almost every day, you will also find delicious pastries from local artisan bakers. It is ideal to not be in a hurry when you go, as people there are really nice and it is fun to have a chat while waiting or enjoying coffee! Note that after the holidays, White Nene will move to a new spot a minute up the road: there will be a seating area and a few new items on the menu."

"Easily the best coffee spot on the island. Unique flavors, excellent quality & latte art is superb. My husband and I always try to find a way to fit a visit in our week to get a coffee at white nene since it never disappoints. Definitely worth the visit!"
