Kona Coffee & Tea
74-5588 Palani Rd, Kailua-Kona, HI
Crema's Take
“Kona Coffee & Tea is a beloved local institution in Kailua-Kona where the espresso drinks shine just as bright as the Hawaiian sun—their espresso shakes and cold brew have earned a devoted following, while creative touches like the Kona Bullet coffee and house-made ginger lime tea keep regulars coming back. The outdoor terrace buzzes with the energy of families and friends lingering over breakfast bagels with mango salsa, all served by genuinely warm staff who make the experience feel like catching up with old friends rather than just grabbing coffee.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Cute local coffee shop with great food options and wines. Plenty of patio space, lots of parking, friendly people.
DO NOT BUY THIS COFFEE ONLINE. This is definitely not the Kona coffee we had in Hawaii. We had Kona coffee while in Hawaii (not at this business) and it was the best coffee we've ever had. So for my wife's birthday, I ordered online the 14 oz Medium Roast decaf coffee. (The…
Been coming for years, always great coffee. Love the order ahead feature, so easy and convenient. They have some of the best cold brew around, definitely worth a trip!
