Rise & Grind Coffee

This is such a cute little shop and a nice place to come for coffee and do some work. There was outdoor and indoor seating. The parking was a little hard to find so I would look it up on advance to make sure you know where to go. The coffee and food items are on the pricier end for what they are, but everything was tasty and I like that it's supporting a small local business. The baristas were friendly and welcoming and there was a notice for awareness about the time for the sandwiches which provided reasonable expectations.

Nice coffee, good friendly service, comfortable home-like ambiance and a/c - will def visit again. It's just not easy to get to - have to park elsewhere and walk there which is difficult with a baby

On a recent weekend morning outing to Kailua for bagels, we also were craving some fresh brewed coffee. Right outside was this little trailer with flashing lights and cute accoutrements. Another couple was laughing and chatting with the guy making the coffee, so I knew it'd be a friendly experience.Despite there being only room for a single employee, he did his best to make orders quickly but still with the attention a great cup of coffee deserves. Prices are reasonable for the local coffee quality and strength. They have other drinks as well, but it wasn't the right time to try them. If you see the trailer around the neighborhood, it's worthwhile to stop in a cup!

Awesome small local business operating out of a small trailer serving up delicious fresh brewed coffee-expresso with ALOHA!Looking forward to my next cup of Hawaiian Kine Java!Located right across from Kono's on Sunday morning!Definitely a place for coffee lovers!

Just as sure as I am that every dad in America got a massage gun for Father's Day this year, I am certain that you will go head over heels over this coffee!Rise, find yourself some ono grindz, then go find this darling little blue coffee trailer that will knock your socks off! Your day is already off to the most fabulous start! I've only been once, but my iced Hawaiian latte left enough of an impression on me that I am an official fan girl of Rise & Grind! "Ohmigosh, that is spectacular" was my exclamation upon first sip. Do it! It's the best way to start your day in paradise!

The cold brew with honey lavender and almond milk is THE BEST drink to walk around the Sunday farmer's market with.

Rise and grind was our favorite everyday spot for us when visiting Hawaii . The space is absolutely beautiful and the coffee is even better. The owner is an amazing human , he was so helpful in sharing beautiful unique spots to visit and very friendly.

Rise & GRIND- this is a great one!Barney, his wife Leah, and their friend Olivia run the BEST coffee trailer at the Aloha Farm Lovers Kaka'ako Market on Saturday mornings. It's a beautiful turquoise blue, they sport their aloha wear, and carry out a smile and a great attitude every week (more like every other week, because I visit the market every other week hehe). They craft different coffee flavors and brews every week at decent prices. Cold brew, lattes, mocha and Americano... but I really am a sucker for iced lattes! $5.50 for a 16 oz, and one has the option of substituting for oat and almond milk for 50 cents extra. I sub the whole milk for those alternative milk options, as whole milk is quite heavy for me. So far, I've had:* coconut cream pie latte: with coconut and vanilla syrup* Hawaiian: with macnut, coconut, and vanilla syrupTheir coffees are smooth, have the perfect ratio of coffee-sweetness (think 50% sweet), and are served up in a good timeframe.All in all, definitely visit the crew at Rise & Grind- their coffee definitely fuels you for a fun-filled and/or productive day ahead! If you're unable to catch them in Kaka'ako on Sunday's, they are also at Pali Lanes from Wednesday-Friday.

Had one of the best cold brews I've ever had here, and I have had a loooot of cold brew. A lot. It was truly my dream cold brew. It's one of the major reasons why I so look forward to stopping by the Kaka'ako Farmers Market on Saturday AMs!I get their largest size (16oz) and add the Hawaiian flavoring (macnut, coconut & vanilla) with oat milk. The total comes out to be ~$5, which I think is a very reasonable price for flavored cold brew anywhere - and especially in Honolulu. They seem to rotate their flavorings every so often and I'm dying to try some of the other ones - like Brown Sugar Oatmilk or Honey Cinnamon - but that would mean skipping getting my favorite cold brew one time, so we'll see if I ever end up trying those...There's always a line in front of their trailer, but the wait has never been too long and it's worth it. The girls running Rise & Grind are also very sweet. Right now this is my favorite coffee on the island!

Best coffee in Kailua! The owners are the best, and at a super cute place on Oneawa St
