Pomaika'i Cafe

High quality food & coffee. Outdoor seating area is huge with Tropical Plants & Palm Trees. Local establishment with local vibes. Priced less than local competitors with same or better quality. Wide selection for breakfast & lunch. We live on Big Island and always stop here for coffee and bagels.

I ate here yesterday and the coffee was amazing! This little unassuming cafe had a great sitting area in the back that was clean and very tropical.

I had a ham panini and my husband had a bacon panini. Not only was everything amazingly hot when it arrived at our table it was fresh and to our table in minutes.

Totally worth the mile or 2 drive from Hawi. And the SUPER nice thing is we had the place to ourselves and didn’t have to deal with the crowded place down the road that was standing room only.

Check them out, food was great and it wasn’t crowded. Cute stores in the building and next doo.

I loved the turkey pesto panini! Their dining area is outside in a garden. Clean bathroom.

Amazing Cafe! Just had a wonderful breakfast here. Great selection of food and drinks. We got turkey panini, breakfast sandwich, and an ice latte. Everything was perfect, just what we need to start the day.

Awesome little place. Had breakfast bagels and coffee and Chai. All terrific. Nice location. Perfect for vacationers traveling through. Like after a visit to Pololu Valley lookout (black sand beach).

Great coffee and very cool, local, rain forest ambiance! We got a latte, a chai, and a smoothie. We all loved our drinks.

What a lovely place! Great coffee and sitting. Early morning crowds seem all local, which is an excellent sign for a good place for coffee and food 😊.

WOW!!! WOW!!! WOW!!! AND GO GIRLS!!!
We are visiting the big island for the first time and are attempting to go around the entire island! Stopped at a beautiful beach and then needed to get some coffee and breakfast! This is a must stop for coffee, their signature iced tea, and baked goods. Definitely must have one of their light and fluffy homemade and made every day cinnamon rolls. And their cinnamon coffee cake…WOW!!!! The gals that work here are so fun and sweet! And be sure to stop next door at their adjoining gift shop for locally made items from the sweet & sassy Priscilla! Love you all!!! 🥰

What an awesome place for coffee and a bite to eat. Great food, great service all in an awesome atmosphere! If it was closer to where I stayed, I would be there everyday.

I would give this place a six star rating if I could. Delicious food, great ambience, owned by a local business, what's not to like here? I recommend this place 100%. Cherry on the top: hey have a few vegetarian options on the menu too!

I must also add: everything on the menu is very nominally priced!
