Crema's Take
“The Hawaiian latte here punches above its weight—creamy, well-executed, and a reminder that Kona takes their signature drinks seriously rather than treating them as gimmicks. The pastries, particularly the guava and cheese scone, are genuinely inventive and worth timing your visit around, though consistency seems to fluctuate depending on who's behind the counter. It's a solid mid-town spot with friendly baristas and a modern vibe, best visited when you're willing to be patient with occasional service hiccups.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu.

My second time giving a try trying, and I think the barista at this location is slightly more skilled. Hawaiian latte I got was creamy. The flavored syrup did do the job but a little bit stealing the taste of coffee. 🍵💚Matcha pound cake was amazing. It was moist, not too dry…
The service and coffee/lattes are consistently good. The pastries are unique and delicious, I love the guava and cheese scone. I love their seasonal drinks that always introduce me to my new favorite drink, their biscoff latte is my current go to.
I chose this café based on the reviews, and it was absolutely the right choice! The food was very delicious and reasonably priced, which made it even more enjoyable. The location is great, and the café itself is bright, clean, and welcoming. If there were a few more tables…
