The Veranda at the Beachhouse
2365 Kalakaua Ave, Honolulu, HI
Crema's Take
“Nestled in the historic Moana Surfrider with wraparound plantation-style porches overlooking Waikiki Beach and towering banyan trees, this venue transforms casual coffee into a full afternoon tea ceremony complete with attentive service and genuinely memorable moments. While they excel at traditional and specialty drinks, what truly sets them apart is the unhurried, celebratory atmosphere—whether you're lingering over high tea service or a leisurely breakfast buffet, the staff's genuine warmth and attention make even first-time visitors feel like they're part of something special rather than just passing through.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast on the menu.

The wife and I had afternoon tea here. At first I thought it would be a gimmicky typical tourist trap. I will admit that I was totally wrong. The service was perfect and the views were even more so. The food was a solid 4 out of 5. I got the Duke set and my wife got the royal…
