“Lots of unique specialty coffee and matcha options, it was hard to choose! I had an iced Habibi latte which tasted similar to a dirty chai—it was *so* good and not too sweet. My partner had the cold brew with cream and it was really good and strong. Really cute space and friendly, welcoming service.”

“We stoped on the way back from Akaka falls and took some shaved ice which was so good and refreshing and really perfect for the occasion when it’s hot outside. Recommend this place because the owner and stuff were there and were really nice with helping what to get and choosing the best flavors. Loved this place.”

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

“We ordered the birria taco platter and a birria burrito, the tacos came with beans and rice and both entres came with consume. The birria was seasoned and cooked well, both came with a large portion of meat. We came back again and the quality was consistent. Highly recommend if you want good mexican food on the island.”

“I never thought that doing a “jam flight” would be part of a trip from Hilo to Akaka Falls. We dropped Mr. Ed’s after getting a recommendation from either Claude or a Facebook group, and the stop was an event in itself.

Mr. Ed is incredibly friendly. He makes his jams by hand, is happy to give you samples, and has terrific stories to share alongside them. The store was truly (and unexpectedly) a highlight of our trip to the Hilo area.”

“Stopped here in back in March after hiking near the Botanic Gardens just looking for a snack, but decided to grab lunch. We were very pleasantly surprised to find that they had Gluten Free buns available for my gluten-sensitive wife. The sandwiches were excellent! This was way above expectations. So glad we stopped.”

Crowded, but we got right thru ordering and seating. Food within 10 minutes. Chit-chat with locals. Meals for all six people in my party were tasty unto dee-lish-uss.”

“Refreshing lemonade 🍋 w/🐝. On moto ride from Keaau to Akaka Falls, just after Donkey Trailhead hike to cove & point. Free water, TY🤙, then lemonade.”

“Super friendly people. We weren't sure how to best save the pineapple so we asked since we were driving across the entire island. They happily sliced the pineapple for us so we could store it in our cooler. They even threw in some bananas for us as well. Definitely authentic from the island, probably the best pineapple and bananas I've had.”

“This is such an amazing gem hidden in the lush tropical Hamakua countryside. The array of local farmed food and crafts is top notch! Lots of hot food to eat while you're there also. This is as local as you can get for Hawaii.”

“It will be wonderful with some local draft beers. This is the only restaurant opens for travelers until very late. Dictatorship of Astronomy has a limited power here.”
