Wishing Well Coffee & Tea
5-5080 Kuhio Hwy, Lihue, HI
Crema's Take
“Wishing Well Coffee & Tea is a vibrant neighborhood gem where specialty drinks like the beloved Coco Mocha and creative signature lattes (think oat milk and honey "daize") share the spotlight with Instagram-worthy acai bowls loaded with seeds, granola, and real flavor. The shop's warmth extends beyond the cup—they encourage sustainability with glass cup discounts, keep the energy family-friendly and meeting-ready, and create the kind of welcoming space where lingering over matcha or a smooth affogato feels like the whole point. It's the kind of place that gets people craving it long after they leave Kauai.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

I don’t mean to put down any other coffee shops in town BUT this is the best coffee shop in all of kauai!!! Worth the wait! Especially love the macadamia nut latte, ginger turmeric shots, mango smoothie, and acai bowls with coconut cream. This was our favorite breakfast spot…

A great place for coffee or smoothies or Acai bowls! I also love the glass cups and discount for returning with it! Their heart is in the right place. The Acai bowls are delish and good sized for a comparable price. Smoothies are yummy and coffee is good as well. Definitely…
I love this place! I will be craving the coco mocha when I go back home. The açaí bowl with the works was also amazing. We came later in the day and stayed here a while and they offered us some croissants on the house. You also get to keep the jars! Will be coming back for the…
Great coffee shop! We ordered a cappuccino, iced daize (oat milk and honey) latte and an affogato. Woman before me ordered the mango madness smoothie and it looked phenomenal. I really liked how the drinks came in reusable glass jars. BOH food and drink was unique and I liked…
