Crema's Take

This family-owned Maui roaster has earned serious recognition for their smooth, carefully crafted medium roasts that showcase locally grown beans with real depth and character. Baristas here actually know their craft—expect thoughtful cappuccinos and pour overs that deliver on flavor, though be prepared for the popular morning rush and keep food expectations modest if you're after more than pastries and light bites.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. Quick-grab spot. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

The lattes were delicious! The Hawaiian Honey bee flavor was flavorful without being too sweet. The staff were so friendly and my kids also give the muffins 5 stars. Thank you for the best coffee and service while visiting the beautiful Maui for a week!

Hands down the best coffee I had in Maui! The beans are truly something else, rich, smooth, and full of flavor. You can tell they put real care into what they serve, and it shows in every sip. We ordered two lattes, one with brown sugar and one with vanilla, and both were…
