Bad Ass Coffee of Hawaii

3701 Fairfax Dr, Arlington, VA

★★★★4.4(81 Google reviews)

Crema's Take

This Arlington spot brings genuine Hawaiian coffee culture to Northern Virginia with carefully prepared espresso drinks and smooth cold brew made with coffee ice cubes to preserve every nuanced flavor. The team here really shines—they're genuinely warm and attentive, remembering regulars' orders and offering thoughtful recommendations, while the malasada donuts pair perfectly with your cup. It's the kind of place that feels like a mini escape, where the coffee is taken seriously but the vibe stays relaxed and welcoming.

The staff were so friendly and offered great recommendations. The coffee was very good and well prepared. My wife got an iced coffee, which they use coffee ice cubes for to avoid diluting the deliciousness. Us and our friends took up a lot of space in their small shop, but no one seemed bothered. The bathroom door handle is tricky, but they have clear instructions for using it. Most certainly try this place!

Bad Ass place and drink. Great flavors and options. Located in a nice area in Alexandria. If you want a closer coffee taste of Hawaii then this is the place for you to grab a nice cup of coffee or specialty drink.

Absolutely lovely. The staff here are so kind and helpful, the food is great (get the malasada donuts), the coffee is great (and they use frozen coffee cubes for iced coffee so it doesn't get watered down 😎), I love this place. It has a *little* bit of seating in form of a counter that stretches down the window, so it's perfect if you're just having a quick breakfast; they also have wifi if you want to chill here for a while too - and seating is basically always free since most people are just picking up. But seriously, every time I've come over had a great experience with the people here, they're awesome!! Thank y'all!!

The Coffee is Legit & The Name....Say's it All! I stumbled on this to this place while taking a break from work and a walk outside to get some fresh air. It is relatively new and located across the street from the Starbucks here in Virginia Square. I must say, I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered an amazing iced latte called the ‘Three Waves’ that have flavors of macadamia nut and hints of coconut & caramel that had my taste buds flying all over the place! I customized it by adding dark chocolate which paired well and heighten my drink. The coffee itself was bold, strong, just like I like it and not too sweet. The price point was great too. It was the perfect fix and afternoon boost. The shop is small but has lots of souvenirs and select Hawaiian coffee beans to choose from and take home. The menu is full of coffee, items, smoothies, and variations of coffee drinks that can be prepared cold, frozen or hot.. I left this place buzz and completely satisfied....with a great energy kick to make it through the rest of the day. Thanks, To such a great experience and delicious cup of coffee, I also bought a bag of Kona expresso beans to bring home. I'm so glad this place has opened up here and so close to work. The customer service is excellent and the /barista was very helpful. With such a large menu and many choices, flavors, and combinations to choose..... They were great and helping me navigate the menu and offered up. Excellent suggestions. This place is a huge improvement from the once Dunkin' Donuts store that was located here. Will definitely keep this place on repeat and have to come back to try some of the many other great looking menu items! Two thumbs up & I recommend you make a stop here for a delicious coffee experience!

Been here a bunch of times now and the staff is super friendly and warm which i really appreciate. They have had incredible memory and ability to recite my coffee order which makes the place feel like they are adding so much to the community. I have very high coffee standards and they did not disappoint. I normally get cold brew and they add coffee ice cubes which. I hate when other shops try to fill your cup with ice cubes to avoid giving you more coffee but I love being able to drink my coffee slowly without it getting watered down.
