Crema's Take

Imua Coffee Roasters is a thoughtfully plant-based specialty coffee shop where the espresso drinks shine—especially their macadamia nut lattes—and the vegan pastries and breakfast options cater beautifully to both committed plant-based folks and curious coffee lovers. The warm, friendly crew creates a genuinely welcoming atmosphere that rewards those willing to skip the chains and slow down for a phenomenal cup, though their food inventory can be a bit inconsistent. It's a beloved local gem in Lihue that honors both craft coffee and intentional, nourishing food.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program, good cold brew. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

A little hidden gem for early risers. If you love plant based milk, this place is perfect. I usually love my almond or soy latte, to add a bit mac nut flavor makes it so yummy. The crew is also very friendly.

One of our favorites in Kapa’a! The flavor of the coffee is amazing, love that they are a plant based coffee shop. Even if you aren’t vegan…try it. All their food and drinks are delicious. Golden milk is my favorite and my husband likes their lattes and the favorite drink. They…
