Crema's Take

Tucked into a Waikiki hotel lobby, Banyan Breeze punches above its weight with creative signature drinks like the Haulia Latte and consistently excellent service that makes you feel genuinely welcomed. The cozy, dimly lit space strikes that rare balance between a quick caffeine stop and a place worth lingering, especially if you snag a pastry or breakfast sandwich to pair with your coffee.

This little coffee shop in Waikiki feels like a hidden gem, offering great value on coffee and drinks. Sandwiches run about $15, the soup of the day is around $10, they have free Wi-Fi, and the staff is friendly. I’d much rather support a local spot like this than a big chain like Starbucks. When you spend here, your money stays in Hawaii. Sure, spending at Starbucks still supports local employees, but the corporation takes a huge cut—and lately, Starbucks has been questionable with its support for a country that’s starving children. If you want your money to have a direct impact here, skip the chain and choose this place instead.

Excellent service and friendly. The breakfast sandwich and bagel were both very good. I came here after seeing the Haupia Latte on the menu and I love trying different coffee drinks. It was very good. This is a must stop if nearby.

A small & dim hotel cafe providing all sorts of coffee and to-go food & drink options, mostly to-go for hotel guests. My espresso was fast & hot and (at $4.50) a little overpriced for quality received. It seems storage is an issue & now is less open with worse seating and decor, blocking any views out the windows. Wish it felt less bodega-like and more café restaurant-like, though the A/C & fans keep it nice & cold.

I recently visited the coffee shop on the hotel's ground floor and had a delightful experience. The service was impressively fast and friendly, making me feel welcome when I walked in. I ordered an Americano and a cheese Danish; both were delicious and hit the spot perfectly. The coffee shop is relatively small, which I found to be a refreshing change since there are so many Starbucks in the area. It had a cozy atmosphere that made it a nice place to relax. Overall, I highly recommend this coffee shop for anyone looking for quality coffee with a pleasant ambiance!

Cute little cafe at the bottom of the hotel; there is no entrance from the street side, you have to go into the open air lobby to find the coffee shop. The staff was beyond friendly and welcoming! I got the iced “haupia latte” and it was a delicious coconut flavor that mixed perfectly with oat milk, and a generous amount of whipped cream! I also enjoyed a breakfast sandwich with sausage on croissant, which was fresh and hot. They have a few tables to sit at inside with power outlets and wifi, which is always a plus. They also have sandwiches, wraps, salads, and smoothies so it’s more than just a delicious coffee spot.
