Adorable little place! Lots of options and you can never go wrong with house made syrups! I enjoyed an Oatmilk latte with a little splash of maple and vanilla. Cute little space to highlight local vendors, all items for purchase. Lots of seating and a very relaxing vibe.

Seems like there's a lot of regulars The barista and cashier knew people by name and was very conversational with everyone while making their drink. She didn't really talk to us but whatever. Didn't get any pastries cus I read that there were flies in the box and I can see what they're talking about... didn't look as appetizing Coffee was a bit sour like the acidic coffee Also paper straws... :(

Really cute coffee shop. Love how the Main Street has these kitty sculptures.I got an iced red eye which for me is almost always good everywhere I go. My friend got the lavender latte and a peanut butter cookie the cookie was kinda hard she said but it was “okay” in her opinion.

Great find! Friendly staff with lots of gluten-free and vegan options to help the intolerant among us!

It seems that my experience differed to the majority but my iced oat milk latte was so awful that I couldn't finish it. The oat milk was rancid rendering the drink sour and undrinkable. I'll be back to try the food but will skip the coffee next time.

We love Hilo. Excellent coffee and wonderful ambiance. The most perfect coffee shop.

Having driven from the Boston area the night before, HiLo was a welcome and surprising TREAT- a feast for the eyes and the tummy.Great work Lauren, I'm doing my best to crack the 'best granola I've ever had' code!

Disappointed. The place is full of flies. Items on the menu are not available. I ordered a simple dish. The lady spent like 10 minutes chatting with her girlfriends instead of serving my dish. I was looking at her to see if she would snap out of her happy conversation and make the dish. Finally, after a long wait the cashier came and finally I got the order. Never coming back (unless it's the last cafe on earth.)
Stopped in on a road trip with a group. Picked up 2 lates and a drip coffee plus an almost croissant. Service was fast and friendly, the drinks were hot and tasty, the baked goods were soft and flavorful. If this was my local coffee shop I would be very happy I'll have to come back on a trip!!

New fave local coffee shop, the cinnamon dolce latte with oat milk is my go to and the service is always top notch. I also love that they carry a variety of local baked goods, especially my fave almond croissant from See & Be, if you haven’t tried one yet you have to!Thanks Hi Lo, be back soon!

I love this place because it has great coffee and banana bread. The staff is so generous with their time and energy.
