Kakaako Cafe
725 Kapiolani Blvd, Honolulu, HI
Crema's Take
“Tucked just a couple blocks from the waterfront in Honolulu, Kakaabo Cafe strikes that rare balance between serious espresso craftsmanship and genuinely craveable food, with reviewers raving about everything from silky lattes to a standout Everything Bagel with salmon and surprise side salad. The space feels like your favorite local spot—clean, cozy, and humming with good energy—where the staff makes you feel welcome whether you're settling in with your laptop for hours or grabbing a quick breakfast before work. It's the kind of neighborhood cafe that gets consistently packed at lunch but moves with such ease and warmth that you don't mind the bustle.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Wifi. Parking available.
