Crema's Take
“Tucked away in Waimea, this espresso-focused café nails the fundamentals with expertly crafted pour-overs and cold brews while also excelling at creative specials like iced Vietnamese coffee and genuinely excellent chai lattes that keep locals and visitors equally devoted. Beyond the serious coffee, the vibe is undeniably cool—think curated playlists and a relaxed aesthetic that makes it feel less like a tourist stop and more like discovering a well-kept secret, especially when paired with their fresh-baked bagels and locally-inspired treats like Kona coconut shortbread.”

I feel so fortunate that this little gem was only a 10 minute drive from the home we were staying in! I got an iced Vietnamese coffee, which was one of their specials at the time, and it was delicious. I also really enjoyed the breakfast burrito and general vibes of this place. Plenty of seating outdoors as well as a few spots inside, and they even had a local musician one of the days we went! Very cute spot with quality coffee and food.
My favorite cafe experience on the island. I loved the menu it consisted of Proper coffee and they know how to coffee. In addition to that they feature smoothies, pastries and light bites. We ended up picking up a few of their beans that they retail. All in all, best cafe on the island and awesome service and decor and vibe.
We enjoyed our afternoon treat at Waimea Coffee Company. We enjoyed a cold brew and a chocolate peanut butter smoothie. For our snack we had the Kona Coconut Shortbread - which was amazing. We had a delightful experience with excellent service and coffee drinks. We recommend this as a great place.
The coolest coffee shop we visited in Hawaii. They won me over when Young the Giant was playing when we walked in. The chai latte was the best I’ve ever had. My husband’s cold brew was also delicious. And the breakfast burrito melt was superb. (It’s huge, so definitely something you can split if you have a more filling drink). So happy we stopped here!!
Excellent little coffee shop in Waimea Hawaii. They have some of the best coffee I've ever drank, I got the pour over coffee medium roast. Their Acai bowls are delicious, their bagels are fresh, and the brownies are fantastic. We were here almost every day of our trip. Looking forward to coming back one day soon.
