Love love love it here! The staff are very nice and the ambiance is so beautiful! I got the Pauahi (macadamia nut coffee) and I loved it. I also love how you can add the sweetness when you pick up your drink. Such a small touch, but it makes a big difference! The seating area is shared long tables and a couple of small tables, but still get plenty seating if you're planning on studying.

It's been my favorite place ever since my friend and I found this place a few years ago! Their coffee and espresso based drinks are amazing but so are their other drinks and their syrups! Their space is nice and cozy, the layout is so visually beautiful, and I love the locally made items they have in their store!

Incredible coffee shop using delicious Pono Potions Oahu-made syrups! We got the Meli Matcha (water-based matcha drink with honey ginger syrup and lemon), the Pauahi (latte with caramelized Mac nut syrup topped with toasted mac nuts), and the ‘Ulu Spice (current special - like a pumpkin spice latte but breadfruit spice). The matcha was one of my favorite drinks of all time - so unique and perfectly balanced! Didn’t try their baked goods but they looked great and were all vegan + gluten free. Spent the morning exploring Chinatown and was so glad to find this comfortable spot to sit indoors and outdoors. They were hosting a wreath workshop and had fun holiday vendors today, too. Kudos to Peter, Michael, and the rest of the team for the beautiful coffee shop, community space, stellar drinks made from your syrups, and vibe!
