Says on Yelp that hours were updated a few days ago. Looking through the window at 11am 5/2/21 looks like they're on tear down mode.... Really?

We randomly visited Bluetree Cafe while walking around Honolulu. We had some time before a flight, so we decided to walk around a few blocks and explore the area. We wanted to sit for a minute and grab something to drink, so we found Bluetree Cafe on Yelp. It's in a great walkable area, and there's lots of street art around it, so it's a nice spot to sit. It's a really cute shop! They have some decor made from bicycles, which we thought was really cool. They have plenty of options for coffee, juices, smoothies, etc. I opted for a juice, and it was delicious! B had a smoothie and he enjoyed it as well. I also loved the glass bottle my juice came in, because I love to recycle and reuse when possible. I actually used the bottle for water in the airport, and I still have it now. If you're in the area and looking for a cute coffee shop to check out, Bluetree Cafe is a great spot!

Cute place to study with a few free parking spaces in the basement. Good alternative to the coffee houses in Salt

Has been a go-to coffee shop for me, but seems to have gone downhill recently. Soy hot chocolate, cinnamon waffles and iced tea are my staples, but had problems with all 3 in the last 2 visits. Recently I picked up an iced tea and a hot chocolate on the way to an appointment. I was absolutely convinced that they forgot to put the chocolate syrup in the hot chocolate because it looked and tasted like steamed soy milk. For $4.95. The iced tea was like rocket fuel- so strong and bitter, I couldn't drink it. And I like strong tea. Today, I stopped back and ordered a hot chocolate and cinnamon waffles. Again, the hot chocolate looked and tasted like steamed soy milk. It took me two more asks to get a hint of chocolate flavor. I asked about the $4.95 price this time because I'd never noticed that they actually charge me for a mocha, not a hot chocolate (which is usually at least $1-2 cheaper). The guy said it was because they make their own chocolate sauce. Ok, but if you don't put enough in to actually taste it, I'd rather have store bought. For a reference, I often ask for less chocolate than usual in my hot chocolates b/c I don't like overly chocolatey drinks. The cinnamon waffles are usually delicious, but today they tough and tasted salty or off somehow- not slightly sweet like I'm used to. Since I'd already bothered the guy multiple times for the chocolate in my hot chocolate, I gave up on the waffles. I looked for contact info on the website before posting because I hate to leave a bad review, but couldn't find any easily. Sorry Bluetree.

Blue Tree lives up to its reputation as a modern coffee & juice bar with a health-conscious menu with vegan options. If you're looking to indulge, but also stay healthy, Blue Tree has delicious treats made fresh to satisfy your cravings. The ambience is the selling point of Blue Tree. It's perfect to grab a bite and drink with friends, or even better yet, making a productive study session a bit less droll. You have a solid choice between the Kapiolani location and the Collection. The matcha waffles and cinnamon waffles (two different menu options) are both worth a try. My personal favorite? The cinnamon had a satisfying crunch and the fresh fruit added a bit of natural flavor to bring it all together. It's enough to share, or to tackle on your own if you're feeling particularly ambitious. Parking is available for free with validation in the Collection. You may luck out with a spot at the metered stalls just around the corner. You'll be pleasantly surprised with the modern vibe that puts you in the right mindset for productivity and good company.

I'm obsessed with the spicy tofu poke bowl. I get it almost once a week. It's perfect. I love their juice, coffee and vegan muffins. The avocado toast hits the spot. The veggie panini was ok. Not bad but nothing great. I'm happy this place opened and will definitely be a repeat customer. They also give 10% off for core power members. And they have parking in their building.

This newly opened coffee shop is a great addition to Kakaako. While all the coffee shops closes early in the area (except Starbucks), Blue Tree is open till 6pm. They also validate parking. The store is clean and nicely decorated. It comes with a spcaious bathroom as well. They also have big tables outside so I was able to enjoy coffee with my dog there. The menu consists of coffee, tea, smoothies, juices and acai bowls. It seems they have more varieties on smoothies and juices rather than coffee and tea. I had chai latte and it was good. My husband had caramel latte. Both of them costed $6 which is a bit higher than other places including Starbucks. I would come back if other coffee shops are closed or if I had my dog with me.
Absolutely LOVE the new blue tree!!! I had no idea this Opened 3 months ago right across the street from where i work. So THANK YOU Yelp elite event for keeping me updated! I'm gonna be coming here often lol. My +1 and I got to try the avocado toast, Bluetree waffle, CBD cold brew, Green Glow detox juice and perfect start juice. Avocado toast: I mean, it's hard to mess up this classic. What I loved best? They used a rye like bread so there's lots of flavor packed underneath the soft creamy avocado spread. Bluetree cinnamon waffle: OMG! So delicious. My +1 has been wanting to get these waffles for a while but never had the chance because it takes a little longer than she has time for first thing in the morning. So she was very grateful to get to come to this. CBD cold brew- it had a very nice flavor which was much lighter than most cold brew. The rep said it's a misconception that CBD will make you tired. This blend is more of a calming effect while still being alert. Green glow- definitely tasted like what it would be used for. Delicious? Not particularly lol. It's not sweet but rather a light healthy taste. Perfect start- this was more of my kind of drink because it has pineapple to add flavor and sweeten the mix. This was the best way to end all the tasting. I ended up purchasing a 20oz house blend coffee with soy for only $3. They were sadly out of cold brew tonight. :( and I wasn't prepared to order the CBD one since I was on my way to my second job. Calm is the last thing I need right now lol. The girl working the register was super nice and answered all of our questions and held conversation with us while refilling the samples. She made the experience top notch! Can't wait to come back here! Probably tomorrow actually haha.

Overall a place to grab some coffee and sit down. Staff are very friendly, and it didn't take very long for our coffee to come out. For food, we ordered the deluxe avocado toast for breakfast. For some reason, I was a little skeptical of avocado toast that had raw onions, cucumbers, and balsamic vinegar, but it was absolutely delicious and I can't recommend it enough. Comes with four half pieces of toast. One of my favorite things about this place is the aesthetic vibe - it made for a very comfortable place to talk story with someone or get some work done. There is additionally a top loft area with more seating. Be aware that google maps does not take you to the right entrance for parking - the entrance to the parking area is actually a driveway right before the store front. It was so nice that they had reserved parking for store patrons. Will definitely come again!

Bluetree is in a great location and has a great vibe. I got the taro pancakes, but they were a little lackluster. My husband had the curry salad which was super good. I'll definitely have to go back a try more.

Best vegan curry I have ever had in Honolulu. I thought that the grapes in it would be weird but it helped give it a good consistency without it being just mushy. It is delicious and just the right amount of spices so even those that aren't too keen about spicy foods could delve right in. Love the location & the fact that they have more seating upstairs & even a restroom inside the establishment so you don't have to go searching. It is a bit on the pricey side but so are all shops in Salt so you already expect it. This is a great one stop shop if you are in to cold pressed juices as well

My first time today. I wanted to try their hot caramel macchiato with their homemade raw almond milk. It was good, could really taste the raw almond milk. My son likes their avocado toast.
