26 Best Coffee Shops in Hilo

“Delicious coffee. I really appreciate that I could get coffee ice cubes for only an added $1.
Service was friendly and quick.
It's a great place to stop at.
There were food options, but I didn't see them listed anywhere, so I'm not sure about what they were or prices.“

“It's literally the best coffee I've ever had...and consistently. I've been going since last year and it's blown me away every time. And I'm from Seattle...the coffee capital of the world. As well as went to coffee school when I became a barista in Seattle. I really think it has something to do with their like $25,000 machine because the actual coffere isn't specialty. It's really remarkable how crucial the machine is. Best coffee on Big Island, for sure. So much so that I felt I needed to write a review about it after a year of having it. ?❤️“

“Stumbled upon this place walking around Hilo this morning. We are very happy we did. Super cute place clean, friendly and the fast. We even got chocolate covered espresso beans from the staff. Highly recommend!“

“Best shaved ice so far that I have had on the island �. Creamy and smooth.“

“This place makes the best shakes and coffees.. everyone is very friendly. If your looking for shakes or coffee that's thick and sweet, this place is amazing for it. I really love the workers there because their so sweet and make you feel like they've known you for years. Their tapas are fairly good. Small yet savory, great for breakfast and brunch. There's really no complaints about this place, get your quick fix lol..“

“I had an amazing Iced Caramel Macchiato there! It was delicious & the vibe in the café was super chill. Nice art a well. 💜“

“Ngon-hợp vệ sinh& tiếp đón khách nhiệt tình!“

“Absolutely amazing coffee and even better service! Popped in on our vacation for a quick caffeine jolt. There was a miscommunication about my husband’s coffee-and it was definitely my fault but the owner quickly swapped out drinks. Best latte I’ve ever had. Don’t hesitate to stop by! Support local!“

“What a place. Only 2 tables, so book ahead. Don’t let the outside scare you away, inside tastefully done with great attention to details. This is a hidden gem. Waffles amazing, pasta breakfast was like a frittata with amazing flavors. Coffee was amazing. All on all a must visit. Not the cheapest, but certainly memorable. Open breakfast and lunch“

“Highly recommended for business meetings“

“We went on the Kona orchard tour and it was amazing! The guide was entertaining and hilarious! I laughed so much! The chocolate was so delicious! I highly recommend this tour!“

“This was my first time ordering a secret menu item. It turned out so amazing and John my barista their energy made it all the better. They were hyping up my option and it really made me smile. The drink couldn't have been better. I got a vanilla créme frappe with three pumps caramel and three toffee nut, topped with caramel. Definitely recommend! ✨💚“

“This coffee shop is actually connected to the general store its next to from the inside and I think is under the store as well. Prices are normal, coffees good, dude behind the counter is nice, what more do you need? We stopped here for some coffee on our way to the beach.“

“I went here for the first time two days ago. I had fish tacos and they were the best fish tacos I have ever had, and I have had my share 😁. Fresh and delicious, with a thick chunk of ahi and really nice sides. The pineapple salsa was great on the tacos. The virgin cucumber drink was tasty and refreshing. I will be back 😋. Totally recommend!“

“Oh my gosh…. Everything here was sooo good! We came in for brunch all had sandwiches. I got the Malibu… it was impressively delicious and bigger than expected. The sandwiches are a bit messy, but worth it! I grabbed a couple cookies on my way out; snickerdoodle and peanut butter. Both cookies were enormous and some of the best cookies I’ve had in a long time! Prices were reasonable, service was fast and friendly. There are maybe 10 tables inside and a few outside, and plenty of parking. I will definitely be back and I’ll surely bring all visiting friends and family here.“

“Awesome vegan and vegetarian options! My go to is the lemongrass tofu bahn mi and a kumquat lemon iced tea. Food is flavorful, portions are generous, and their drinks are really good as well. The family who owns Tiger is always very friendly and accommodating every time we visit.“

“I like it but waiting the right moment Need stacking books ceramic falls easy shattering glass . I meant to say chatting ring a she feel the same fitting. Take my time off 🙏“

“I'd like to recognize one of the workers France Vivien for being so polite and for working with us when our favorite drinks were out. She was by far the nicest Starbucks worker I've met. We enjoyed the drinks she recommended and her smiles made our day!“

“The menu is large they have most of the flavors you can hope for and are always making interesting specials. I personally love the hojicha milk tea. This time I tried the old maids special. A oolong milk tea with blueberry and butterfly tea. Looked amazing and was surprisingly delicious.

I order everything half sweet regular is usually really sweet.“

“Super tasty! Everything is made fresh to order while you wait, and it only takes a few minutes. We got all the different flavors, they were all excellent. We particularly enjoyed the passion fruit filled ones and the savory ones topped with whipped cream cheese and the herbs. Came back for seconds today. Hot, fresh as can be and delicious. Fast friendly service too!

Parking: This food truck is in a free parking lot with ample spaces available.“

“First, food is excellent! They do a very nice job, make it fresh and the place is very cool...right next to two other food counters, also right around the corner from the market. One is Thai, very good as well and another acai bowl place which we also love. I took a star because of the hours, twice now we have gone wanting this and they are closed?? Both times were within what they say open on here, but nothing there but a closed sign, frustrating because we love the food.“

“Parking: Food was excellent mine arrived a little cold but very tasty French Dip I also ordered Waioli drink too sweet w no punch Bartender made to die for Cosmopolitan The wings were meaty w good crust and had flavor not overcooked done to perfection w juices dripping down my face and had good ranch hot sauce Overall Happy Camper worth getting all wet for Delicious“

“Very busy location, with large seating area, great place to meet up and enjoy your favorite beverage. Location was well stocked and while busy the staff were efficient, kind and friendly. I was a little mesmerized by the organization of the team members making drinks and managing the in-store line and the drive through. They were working hard!“

“It's pretty typical of McDonald's in most towns. I do love McDonald's French Fries when they're hot. They make the best! They're chocolate shake was good. I had the McChicken sandwich. I have them make it plain as they always put too much mayo on it. It was good as I was starving! 🍗🍟🧋

Kid-friendliness: Plenty of kids eat here 😋“

“honestly this McDonald's should be shut down by Ronald McDonald himself! McDonald's is supposed to be a charitable organization but yet this specific location is anything but charitable or compassionate or even employed by decent people. previously I have been rudely forced to unplug my phone from the outlet at this location when I was trying to load my McDonald's app in order to earn my points or even redeem my rewards. secondly there is no other way to log into my McDonald's account considering I was not allowed to charge my phone to login to my McDonald's account. now just to top it all off as I was walking by I noticed the drive-thru was blocked off and people were forced to reverse out of the drive-thru so I simply asked the employee outside what was going on and if everything was okay I was ignored but yet this specific employee could talk to everyone but me and I honestly believe it was because I am a foreigner to Hawaii because this specific employee answered everyone else who just happened to be a local or of the same ethnicity as them. the majority actually I can confidently say all of the employees are of Filipino ethnicity and I believe they would not hire anyone else of a different ethnicity. do not go to this McDonald's as I can confidently say they are prejudice and racist if you are not Filipino!“
