Crema's Take

Story is a beloved espresso destination where Finnish coffee standards meet Maui island vibes, earning passionate praise for what locals call the best lattes on the island. The thoughtfully crafted breakfast menu shines with inventive bagel sandwiches featuring local ingredients like macadamia nut spread and organic cheese, paired with smoothie bowls and nut butter toast that go beyond typical cafe fare. It's the kind of place where morning regulars linger with friends and travelers stumble upon serendipitously, drawn in by the genuine hospitality, artful atmosphere, and that rare combination of serious coffee craft with approachable island warmth.

Story is my favourite Cafe on Maui! They have the BEST lattes on island and delish breakfast bagels and smoothie bowls. I'm from Finland and very picky about my coffee so i know what i'm talking about ;) Staff is super friendly and kind. Nice vibe and chill athmosphere overall. Good spot for doing some laptop work too. Good value for your money. Only minus is that they close already at noon and kitchen closes ~10:45am. So make sure you get there early if you want to enjoy some yammy food along with your drinks. Thank you Story staff for making my days extra happy !

Breakfast Bagel (local greens, macadamia nut spread, egg, tomato, balsamic drizzle, organic cheese) I got mine on gluten free toast. Mom got the breakfast bagel too, on the locally made sourdough sesame bagel. The staff gave me a side salad because the gf bread was so small. While the sandwich was incredible it wouldn't be worth it without the side salad. It's worth mentioning that the side salad was also incredible. My rose vanilla latte with oat milk was on point! Mom said her bullet coffee (coconut oil, cinnamon and maple syrup) with oat milk was delicious as well. If you are gf, ask for the side salad as I don't believe it is standard.

I was introduced to Story by my uncle who hangs out here in the morning with his friends. The staff is always amazing as is everything on the menu. The art and atmosphere is amazing and the prices aren't too bad either! My favorite place to grab a cold brew from in the morning on Maui for sure.

We had a great breakfast here before starting on the R2H drive. Our coffee drinks were very tasty and the bagel sandwich we split was tasty as well. Employees were friendly and the shop sells lots of local jewelry and dog accessories. I definitely recommend this place before starting on the horrible drive that is R2H

Stumbled upon this cute little cafe on the way to Hana. Ordered the cappuccino, nut butter toast and bagel sandwich. Cappuccino was perfectly rich and the right size. Food was exquisite! They also have some cold brews in tribute of their cat. 10/10 would recommend stopping on the way to Hana!
