Hilo Ice Coffee
213 Kalanianaole St, Hilo, HI
Crema's Take
“This beloved mobile coffee truck has earned near-perfect reviews by doing the essentials brilliantly: their signature drinks like the Honey Girl are genuinely memorable, and the team treats every order—and every customer—with genuine care, from splitting drinks for kids to crafting espresso-forward creations that locals drive across town for daily. What sets Hilo Ice Coffee apart is how they've created an unexpectedly sophisticated coffee experience from a casual food truck setup, blending specialty drinks and matcha options with a refreshingly unpretentious vibe that feels like discovering a well-kept local secret.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, matcha and tea options too, good cold brew. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, outdoor seating. Family friendly.

Decent coffee at great prices! They’ll suggest adding sweetener to sesame, and I think that’s a good idea; sesame itself is quite weak of a flavor. Next time!
I got the Honey Girl and it was the best coffee drink I have ever had. The server was kind and they split their strawberry lemonade in to two cups for my kids to share. Simply excellent.
While exploring Hilo we stopped at Hilo Iced Coffee, which operates out of a mobile truck and feels very much like a local staple. It is casual and no-frills, but that is part of the charm. I ordered the ube iced latte and it was easily one of the prettiest drinks I had on the…
Hilo iced coffee was one of our favorites places to grab coffee when in Hilo. We drove all the way from pepeekeo every day so we could have all those amazing options. My hubby and I each got a coffee and a matcha to share. We made sure we tried something different every time,…
Awesome little food truck of coffee here. The staff were friendly and chill, the coffee was fresh, good prices, overall better than the other coffee places within a 5 minute drive of here. I'd pick this over them any day of the week. Support local businesses!
