Crema's Take
“This shop's real draw is their made-in-house rum cakes, which come in creative Hawaiian flavors like lilikoi and espresso that locals genuinely rave about—they're generous with samples if you're on the fence. The coffee itself is decent Kona but nothing revelatory, so come for the cakes and the convenience of shipping them home if you want to extend your island vibes back to the mainland.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. Quick-grab spot. Pastries on the menu. Parking available.

Hadn't had their Rum Cake in quite awhile. Bought one to share for a Thanksgiving dinner party and was horrified at how dry the top of the cake was and how wet and saturated the bottom. Seemed like the Rum was over-injected into the finished product. For $36 a small round,…
Rum Cakes !!! They make them there in the shop. We were able to sample them. We got the "3 for $20" deal. I had to get the Lava Flow Coffee Cup for $20. It works great.
Rum cakes! The girl at the counter was very accommodating and gave us samples of coffee and rum cake, and I was sold. So fresh. Delicious flavors. Go and try.
Well worth the visit, stop in and sample the mac nut rum cake-Regular,Espresso,Pineapple, and Lilikoi. Two sizes to choose from and of course Kona coffee they do a pour over so fresh and delicious. They also have several CBD products if you like that even pet treats !
Rum cakes are amazing! Lilikoi and Espresso ones in particular. Coffee is so-so to our taste. You can order everything online including the cakes or you can ship it home right from the shop! Great!
