Liko Lehua Cafe
177 Kaumana Dr, Hilo, HI
Crema's Take
“Tucked into a cheerful yellow building off the main drag, this window-order spot specializes in seriously crafted burgers and sandwiches that locals can't stop raving about—think thick, juicy patties and that legendary lilikoi butter burger that'll stay with you long after your visit. There's no indoor seating, so you're meant to take your meal to a nearby beach or park, which creates this perfect casual island vibe where the genuinely warm staff and fresh, generously-portioned food make everyone feel like family. Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee drink or settling in with a full meal and pastries, the whole experience feels refreshingly unpretentious and deeply satisfying.”

This place was so cozy and friendly - don't even care I can't eat anywhere 😂. Will go again, rain or shine
The food is absolute FIRE. I’ll be thinking about the Likiko’i Butter burger for a long time. Located away from downtown Hilo in a tiny, brightly yellow building that’s only big enough for the kitchen. There is one picnic bench in the parking lot but be prepared to eat in your car or elsewhere.
Stopped in hungry and was not disappointed. Compliments to the chef for these master craft burgers and fixings, and compliments to the host who was so kind. 10/10 will absolutely come back.
NO INDOOR SEATING, ORDER AT THE WINDOW AND TAKE TO A BEACH OR PARK :) Food - delicious and fresh, with generous portions of ingredients in your sandwiches. Delicious fries too :) Service - very kind employees
We've ordered food here a couple times for work. The burgers are thick and juicy, nice chunky fries, and a little fried desert included. I opted for Buffalo chicken sandwich that had bacon on an airy bread.
