Crema's Take
“Nestled in Waimea, this espresso-focused café punches above its weight with creative signature drinks like the Offshore Latte and San Jose Carl that locals and resort guests alike seek out specifically. The baristas move with impressive speed even during rushes, pairing their technical skill with genuine warmth that makes everyone feel welcomed, whether you're ordering a perfectly pulled shot or one of their inventive cold brew creations with playful toppings like popping boba. It's the kind of place where a strong cup and a lovely ambiance make you want to linger, even in a busy Waimea morning.”

Great coffee and super friendly staff! Really clear menu with lots of milk options. I got a cold brew with a tiny splash of half n half and it was great- very strong which I love. Also got the avocado toast (was sold out the past couple days) and it was beautiful and delicious. I sat outside and enjoyed the birds and sunshine!
The shop was very busy, but the two baristas were so fast and so very sweet! My cold brew was perfect and my daughter loved her Kua Swell with popping boba. Will definitely be back for more coffee and food!
Cool little coffee shop with really good espresso and a lovely decor and ambiance. Their offshore latte with oatmilk really hit the spot!
Speed, quality, great service, and a delicious San Jose Carl (espresso with honey). We are staying at the exclusive resorts, not far from this little café, and it was recommended that we stop here for our morning fix. Not only was the service very nice and the gal who helped us was super on point, products were also marvelous. We ordered a couple of coffees of tea and a muffin, and all very good. This is a cool coffee shop in Hawaii.
I got the Kimo's Special frozen blended beverage. It's comparable to a frappe or frappucino. With the $14 price tag came almost impossibly high expectations on my part. I have never paid that much for any beverage! Was it worth it? Oh my gosh, yes! I can honestly say that it was more delicious than any frappe I have ever tasted. That coconut syrup must have been really high quality because it just took the coffee and chocolate flavors up to a whole nother level. And being able to sip and savor it at a nearby, gorgeous beach was priceless. The girls who served me were genuinely nice and the shady outdoor seating looked inviting. Highly recommend this spot when you want to indulgently treat yourself!
