Best coffee on the island! They have oatmilk and excellent decaf espresso, too. Staff is super friendly.

Positively delightful espresso spot. Good service, no lines to speak of. Tables outside. Lots of cold coffee options too. Will soon have pastries, sandwiches etc but for now it’s purely drink options.

I love passionate people with really great insight. I'm sure their coffee is fantastic, so was their peppermint tea. Check out this coffee flavor wheel info he's got in the back

The coffee here is the best! They truly know how to make coffee correctly. We ordered a cappuccino, cortado and freddo and they were perfect. We were even asked if we wanted wet or dry foam. The two guys working there are friendly, knowledgeable and make sure you get exactly what you want. We are in town for a week and have been there twice and plan to go back tomorrow too!

Service was awesome at this great specialty coffee shop. Business was recommended to me by the founder of Paradise Coffee Roasters in Hilo, Miguel Meza whom I reached out to before coming to Maui. Ordered a 16oz cup of drip black coffee and my wife had an iced latte. Good stuff! Went back a second time, after we at breakfast and ordered a delicious cortado and an iced coffee with half&half. Again, service was excellent and the lady and gentleman running the counter were fantastic. Thanks for great coffee and awesome service👍👍☕️🙏🙏

best coffee i had on the island! the beans were smooth and balanced, not bitter or acidic. i’ve ordered a drip coffee, an iced vanilla mac nut latte, and a vanilla lavender latte. all were amazing

Watered down ice coffee, probably the worst we’ve had and when I gave her a $50, she immediately said she didn’t have change for it then 2 seconds later threw the change in my face. Worst service ever! Don’t work in the service industry if you don’t know how to serve people with a smile.

Great coffee spot - visited a couple times on our trip to Maui!

Caity Paulson

Fabulous coffee shop! The only thing I would change about this spot was moving it closer to where we were staying in Kapalua, because it was absolutely the best coffee in the West Maui area! The staff here is enthusiastic and passionate about coffee. The drinks we had were excellent and flavorful!

Iced coffee is bomb. The breakfast sandwich is miniature for $7.50 prob would grab food somewhere else.
