"We went here as the menu had a few vegan options. On asking at the counter what Vegan or Vegetarian options we have the lady just denied saying they dont have anything. We got a very weird stare for asking for options without meat. We saw on the wall there were Bagel sandwiches and avocado toast so we ordered. The tomato hummus bagel which turned out had really big chunks of chickpea and should not be called hummus. Also for avocado toast, they just toasted the bread and placed a few avocado slices on it. No salt or pepper, no seasonings, absolutely nothing. We just grabbed a coffee here later which was good and left."

"A bright mini mall coffee house. The Ka'u Coffee is sold here from Cassablanca Farms. The barista was polite and had a welcoming smile. The coffee is worth every penny, with a clean flavor, and depth of taste. We did take out too and ordered BLT's to go and it was made properly with designer twisted bamboo sticks holding sandwich together. The local bacon had a great flavor. A plus was the mini Arts & Crafts section that was complete with fabric purses, some indigenous wood working, jewelry and paintings. There is plenty of seating with a cool breeze flowing."

"Tucked away spot in an intimate community. Not busy in the wee hours, but the setup easily accommodates crowds which I imagine are present in the latter parts of the day. Price and offerings were great!"

"Lady at the counter just delighted us. We ordered for triberry smoothi and it turned out to be sour for us with real cranberries in it. She redid the whole thing with apple juice and brown sugar ( we asked her to add) and ensured that it meets our pallets. Chai latte she made was awesome too. It was just right. A must visit place to experience great service and yummy beverage."

"Many plusses here. It serves breakfast! The ingredients are fresh tasting and looking. You can customize. I had an oven baked skillet and added pesto. The pesto was delicious! The local feel is great. Service was slower than mainland service but I'm good with Hawaii time. It was probably 15 plus minutes to get the food. Which is fine for me."
