16 Best Coffee Shops in Kailua

“Our son took us there when we were visiting. Best coffee I have ever had. Never bitter“

“We decided to grab some coffee before a run, and wanted to do something (hopefully) better than generic Starbucks..what a great choice! The mochas were delicious and just the kick we needed, and the coffee cake was rich in flavor and so yummy. No better spot to enjoy than their comfy couches and chill vibes inside. Very fair price points compared to some coffee joints - and the ladies taking our order and preparing food and drink were simply delightful. Keep up the hard work y'all, you're killin it!“

“Love this drive-thru !
You will get a few minutes before someone comes and takes your order.
So many options available and you can make so many combinations of drinks.

The cold brew specials (King &Queen) are so unique, I can’t stop thinking about them ?“

“Dining at 22 Kailua was nothing short of magical. From the moment we walked in, we were wrapped in a sense of calm elegance—with soft lighting and the gentle hum of happy conversations setting the tone for an unforgettable night. Every dish felt like a love letter to the islands. The ahi crudo was delicate and bright, bursting with flavor in the most graceful way. The butter-poached lobster was rich, soulful, and beautifully balanced—each bite melted like a dream. But it wasn’t just the food. The warmth of the chef, the passion in every plate, and the attention to detail made it feel personal—like a special evening crafted just for us. 22 Kailua isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a culinary experience full of heart. One you’ll remember long after the last bite. Pure love. 5 stars. 🌺“

“I went to Lilikoi Kitchen with a dear friend for brunch over the weekend and was very pleasantly surprised! We were immediately greeted by Laura who told us about the history of the restaurant and the chef’s dream of owning a cafe, and then introduced us to all of the staff there at the time. She listened to my dietary restrictions and helped me select something that I could eat and would love. Everything we ate and drank (PSL was so good, much better than Starbucks) was exceptional. If they started offering mimosas they would be the perfect ladies brunch locale! We will definitely be back.“

“Aloha. Stopped by & had some awesome java & water(for our Pittie girl🐾) & sat outside talkin story & peeps watchin🤙🤙🤙🤙“

“It tasted different from FLORIDA.but other wise it okay“

“We were lucky enough to get one of their limited edition rainbow scones and promised the shop that we would post an insta because it was BEAUTIFUL. But..my son ate it before we got home!!!! 😭

We ordered half a dozen and got a good variety, and EVERY scone was perfect. The flavors came through on every single one and the consistency of the scone was on point. Highly recommend. Having a scone in hand definitely made my Costco trip more enjoyable :).“

“Love this place. The ladies in the morning are awesome. They know a lot of customers by name and their drinks. The vibes are very inviting and happy no matter how busy they are. I love the turkey pesto sandwich there. They also can make a mean latte. ❤️??“

“A good place for coffee. The turkey sandwich is good too.“

“Ordered Teh C...and Kopi and Kaya toast. the teh c taste like some regulat tea bag with just some.hot water poured into it. does not even taste like any teh from the singapore kopitiam. the kopi too.. the girl with the nose ring also forgot about out Kaya toast until I went to ask about it after 15 mins later. One of the girls did gave us a free croissant for that. I don't know why the girl keep saying teh Tarik when I ordered Teh C, had to confirm again and again.kaya toast tasted correct though.“

“Mango Dragonfruit & Sweet Cream Matcha! 😋😋😋“

“The girls working behind the counter were friendly and effecient. Starting off my day with good coffee and a smile made my Hawaiian experience even better..“

“A nice and pleasant cafe. It’s clear that a lot of effort and resources went into creating it, but the omelet isn’t as tasty as it could be. Your place has great potential to cook delicious food. I would suggest hiring a professional chef for a week to refine your menu, make it more flavorful, and train your staff to prepare tastier dishes. In my opinion, your Garden omelet feels empty and lacks flavor—3 out of 5. But you have the chance to improve and make your food even better!“

“Ummm best pancakes ever! Great service also. Thanks 😊“

“The Sunrise Shack is a must-visit! Their açaí bowls are absolutely amazing—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The vibe is fun, colorful, and laid-back—perfect for a Hawaii treat. Highly recommend stopping by for a healthy and delicious pick-me-up!“
