Pilina Coffee
Hanapepe Rd, Lihue, HI
Crema's Take
“Run by a pair of local brothers who've built something genuinely special, Pilina Coffee creates a welcoming gathering space where thoughtful espresso drinks and creative signatures like ube cold foam lattes shine. The owners are present and personable, actively cultivating connection through their space and specialty beverages, and they've even installed a pay-it-forward wall that reflects their generous spirit. Whether you're grabbing a quick cup or settling in for a longer sit, you'll find yourself greeted warmly and served by baristas who are clearly passionate about both their craft and their community.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings.

Definitely the best coffee we had on the island. The owners were really kind and personable, the shop had a nice vibe to it. The coffee was delicious, smooth, well-pulled shots. 10/10.
Amazing service & quality roasts/coffee. Beautiful space with great employees who make you feel right at home. Cold foam is definitely what they’re known for, but the lattes are just as good. Great outdoor area to sit at as well!
A couple local brothers run this coffee spot and it’s absolutely great Coffee and great people! They have a payout forward wall, which I’ve never seen before and a super cute idea as well. Check this place out if you want some phenomenal coffee and great vibes.
