Crema's Take

“The banana chocolate chip mac nut bread here is so legendary that it rivals the coffee itself—and the coffee is genuinely excellent, with reviewers consistently calling it the best on the island. If you're finishing the Road to Hana, this is the perfect refueling stop with stellar local pastries, genuine hospitality, and plenty of parking to actually sit and recover from the drive. Skip it only if you're in a rush; the whole point is to linger over real coffee and carbs.”

What to expect

Espresso-focused. A quick-grab spot, outdoor seating. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu. Parking available.
