The Beetnik breakfast sandwich and breakfast burrito were my two favorite picks; Molokai Coffee delicious. I need to come back for Mac Nut Latte and Cinnamon roll !

Johnathon Giarmo

Best coffee in Kapaa. If you like string dark coffee , avoid the Kina and Kauai and get the Molokai 100%. Also, they have great cinnamon rolls but they are all gone before 8:30 so get there early.

Shannon Jones

Try the iced Mac Nut Latte if you’re in to that sort of thing! I thought it was so good that I had to buy the syrup they use online so that I can make it here at home.

Freeman LaFleur

Best cafe in Kapa'a! Loved their almond milk latte . Went here every morning while in Kauai . Great environment, drinks, and breakfast food .

Meredith Blechman

Amazing coffee-every preparation you can imagine. Also great for fresh healthy lunches or breakfasts + they make their own ice cream in house.

brittany

A little pricey but it is delicious. Loved the chai latte but their plain old latte was delic too. Husband got mocha and loved. Breakfast burrito was just okay. But bagels were yummy!

Katie Andrade

This coffee joint has such a great, expansive menu of delicious coffee drinks, smoothies , and food items. Love the vibe it has going on!

Mark Lombardi

The 100% Kauai and the Cold Toddy were really good. It gets crowded around the holidays so try to go early.

Scott Rocher

The best coffee here is sadly not grown in Hawaii - ask your barista for the lightest roast and get a cup of that. Pair with a cinnamon roll .

Kevin Maguire

Best coffee on the island . Their Japanese Cold Brew was one of my Kauai highlights (seriously!)

Kahuna Matata

Try the Surfer Girl - Cheese , spinach , onion , eggs , pesto , aioli , bacon & tomato on a cheese bagel !! Comes w side of bananas ! So yummy!!

Zoe Carey

Great coffee . We also got banana bread and the surfer bagel with scrambled eggs , bacon and pesto aioli which was delicious.

???????????????????????????? ????????????????????????

Good coffee , and open early, so great place if you need some fuel before an early morning hike .

Kay Kay

Actually everything is great here! From coffee to breakfasts and smoothies . Nothing failed us. So go frenzy!

Ashley Ross

Awesome coffee selections and great breakfast . Head out back for quicker service, especially if you order ahead.

Damian Bayona

The espresso is ???????? - super dark and tasty. None of that fruity , floral espresso they serve on the mainland.

Benjamin Christian

Amazing! The cakes are incredible, the coffee local an great, the sandwiches awesome.

Alo Ha

Good place for Breakfast & coffee . Parking limited in the back or on the street.

Agatha Giarmo

Honestly best coffee on the island ! Moloaki is the best ! Cin roll omg ! And surfer girl sandwhich wow !!!

Praful Gupta

Good coffee shop with different varieties of coffee available. Grab a cup and explore the neighborhood .

Andrea Campi

Different kinds of Hawaiian coffee . Muffins , brownies etc are awesome, can't go wrong.

ᴡ Elliot

BBQ sauce on fleek. Get it on everything, especially the BBQ taro burger ???? the vegan mac nut muffin was not good, too dry. Dragon juice is overhyped, just tastes like basic green juice

Michelle A.

Great coffee specialties. Free wifi only for 30 min.

Will Kivinski

Simple drinks are best. Thumbs up for their Iced Americano . Their mixed espresso drinks were seriously terrible. (Shark Bite) Blueberry scone was fluffy.

Jeff Bowen

Try the Mac Nut Latte . Has a few outlets if you need to charge your phone.

Jackson Shih

They sell Ono pops here. Never heard it before, but will look for them everywhere now. My wifey loves the hazelnut iced latte .

Trish Shrope-Nettleship

Go around back to avoid the line . No waiting and the full menu is available!!

Jenny Zeng

Nice breakfast with Fresh juices and Yummy bagels ! Great healthier option !!!

Pavan Kulkarni

Everything here is amazing. Confused? Get dragon bowl or egg bagel sandwich .

Great selection of coffee and top notch cold brew ????????

Don't underestimate the croi-sean-wich. Nice and hearty.

Good coffee and pastries . I thought the avocado toast was a little weird.

Single shot latte and medium capp always fantastic ! What a great way to start the day...

Philip B

Cool spot, but their 'Cortado Kai' is nothing like a real cortado .

Tim Annan

Cold brew , espresso drinks , great bean variety.

Tristyn Heldt

The surfer girl sandwich is bomb. Looks disappointing at first, it looks small. However the portions are perfect and don't fall apart as you eat. Mahalo

Drip coffee is local and devine.
