Super rude older gentleman. I would not give this business a $1. I have diabetes and my blood sugar was low and I needed to sit down on a bench outside because I was so shaky.. Everything was fine for about 10-15 minutes until he came up to me and viciously yelled to leave. They were not busy at all and I would have not sat there if a customer needed it. Talk about no aloha spirit. Just note if you go there and by chance have a medical condition acting up don’t expect them to be kind to you or even care.

This place has the best coffee in America, and I’m a coffee snob. I’ve been to every coffee shop in the states. I’ve been coming to Bean About Town for a few years now and they who make their own sauces for my Bourbon, Butterscotch latte. It’s unreal and the attention to detail is perfection. I think the owner is from London. Coffee in Europe is just better, simple as that.

Stylish place with high quality speciality coffee. I appreciated that it was close to the main drag of Waikiki but still quiet and away from the crowds. I had a piccolo, which came served in a beautiful handmade ceramic mug, and I bought some beans for home. Would come here often if I lived nearby!

Bean About Town is One of my favorite specialty coffee shops on Oahu! I love the original Kaimuki location as this is our neighborhood gem and away from the tourists so usually no huge queues. Baristas are friendly and give recommendations on drinks. The coffee is excellent, and the caneles are also tasty!

Raises prices 200% on food item (energy balls). 3 of them is now the most expensive item on the menu!!! Crazy. Used to be 3 for $5, now 3 for $10. Comparable shops sell those 6 for $10. Bean is charging well above market

This is a pretty amazing place. Baristas are super nice and always make me happy. Especially, I'd like to say thanks to Mitsuko and Manao. I recommend you try the Cold brew with Orange bourbon syrup, Banana bread and Caprese sandwich.
