I love Bean About Town so much. They always give great service and their outdoor seating area is very quaint and cute. I love their display of plants because it really adds to their aesthetic. I genuinely love the Kaimuki location because I feel at peace here. Definitely a more grass roots feeling, and I wouldn't have it any other way. If I have time in the mornings I always love to make the trek here to take things a little slower and relax.Definitely check out their Waikiki location as well. It's definitely a lot bigger and has free wifi, ample seating, and plants for decor located within DFS Galleria in the very back as you walk in from the entrance. Definitely a very good option to escape from the bustle of Waikiki. Waikiki is wild ya'll. Too much tourists. Ugh LOL

Lots of simple core coffee items in their menu with a selection of flavorings. Seating benches inside and outdoors, with outdoor tables and a bar seating available. WiFi is given upon asking and worked quite smoothly for getting work done.Had an iced latte with dark chocolate. As described it was a syrup-flavoring which was light in flavor but provided enough dark chocolate bitterness to tell it was there.

My partner went to the store to pick up some good coffee beans to bring back from Hawaii. I asked her to get the best they had, which were $100/lb. Unbelievably, the bags had no printed roast date, and when she asked about it, she was told they were maybe "a week and a half" old. Also, they tried to school her that a recent roast date isn't important, and that beans are fresh for 3 months. For a "gourmet" roaster, they should know neither of these things are true. This is the first roaster I've ever heard of that doesn't date their bags, so they're hardly worth the price. I'll find a better place next time.

A cute little coffee shop in Kaimuki with a parking lot in the back, which can be a bit tight but has a good amount of parking spots. There is a bit of seating but a limited amount. The shop is very cute though and the baristas were kind. We ordered, from the menu with a variety of coffees and food, a matcha latte and iced vanilla latte. Along with a banana bread, which was pretty good. Everything was good but just a bit tight with the parking and having difficulty finding seating. Everyone who came in to buy coffee or whatnot seemed happy to be there and there was a peaceful ambiance!

It's a cozy coffee shop with good vibes. Shakarato (~$6/7) - i think it's just a shaken latte. I asked for Mac nut and hazelnut syrup which did make my coffee taste..unique lol. Stick with one, preferably the Mac nut syrup. Overall coffee had a nice roast flavor. Parking is limited but there's also meter parking.

In my opinion, out of all the coffee shops on the Waialae strip, they have the best coffee hands down.

My mom stumbled upon this quaint little coffee shop on one of her adventures so off course we had to come back. The iced chai latte are is very good, gives a nice strong chai flavor. Ordered my daughter a scone as well which they even offer to warm up. This place was small but so cute and when in the area I'd come back.

Love this artisan coffee shop in Kaimuki! It's a vibey tiny shop more for grab and go. I'm usually in a rush to work, so their online ordering is particularly helpful. I've tried their latte and matcha latte, both classic and good. I've tried all of their yummy scones, and strawberry is my favorite. My absolute favorite are their Ulu Muffins. Little cups of heaven. Try the vanilla chocolate, you won't regret it! The staff have all been fabulous too!

Walked by this little coffee shop and wanted to try it so we came back this morning. First of all, it's a really cute place, but pretty small and squishy. Waiting in line with people squeezing past you to get in and out was a little uncomfortable. But the baristas were nice and seemed efficient! I ordered an iced latte with oat milk, no sweetener. I usually always order this when trying a new coffee place as sort of a benchmark test. My latte was good, but nothing special. The downside is they charged me an extra $1.50 for oatmilk, which I thought was ridiculous. Most of my favorite coffee shops charge 50 cents $1 max. (Side tangent: it kinda bothers me when coffee shops try to profit off milk alternatives, as they are often cheaper than cows milk these days). There was lots of seating outside, which is great, but I decided to take my coffee to go. Overall, it's good, but I'm not impressed. I might come back if I'm in the area, but there's better coffee shops in Kaimuki in my opinion.
