Fav- a must- feels like going back in time- friendly staff- cute interior and outside tables, coffee, desserts and food all home made and healthy if you want that. Support local businesses and don't go to Starbucks! More...

Awesome that we can purchase the historic Kona Coffee premiere whole beans; Sakamoto Farms 12 year, Oak Barrel Aged which are a medium to dark roast. At $75 for 10 oz. bag, it is a luxury. Consider this specialty coffee the "heaven" in the world of coffee extravaganza. Want a special gift for a loved one? Try this. This does sell out frequently; a limited supply. I do love the food here and the service is, awesome. Hey, if you are going to pay $8 for a cup of coffee, it better be a really GREAT CUP of coffee, Waimea Coffee Company delivers. Unlike other competitors that still charge $8 and you get an inexperienced barista, and disappointment. Try Waimea Coffee Company where friends gather, locals hang out and everyone waits; but it's worth it. Try it, you'll like it. Best coffee in town if not island-wide. More...

Waimea. The best coffee, breakfast, baked goods and ambience. Laid back, great customer service. Not too much seating, but go outside and find a seat or table or picnic bench. Our first stop in Waimea. Try Super Dank variety bean or their Chai Tea. Great merch too. moderately priced Trucker caps, quality mugs and t-shirts too. Make it your first stop in Waimea. Located next-door to Longs Drugs. More...

Beautiful Hawaii in the highlands of the countryside. Waimea Coffee shop is a great little spot to stop and get coffee and breakfast or lunch. The country shops has that Key West meets SoCal vibe. Nice, laid back and chill. The have live music on the weekends, and the coffee and Burrito Melt was excellent. Don't get sticker-shock, but everything on the big island is Expensive....bring your wallet and get ready to spend. Even gas an extra dollar at $5.00/gal. More...

Made a stop here on our way from Hilo to Kona. This little mountain town is so charming! The coffee shop is nestled into a courtyard with perfect picnicking grass, bring a blanket to sit on while you eat (although you may have to fend off the chickens like we did , but they were harmless) the coffee is delicious, the smoothie was a huge portion, and the bagels were top notch. The vegetables and avocado were generous portions and sooo fresh. Would definitely come back here to enjoy. The servers were friendly and brought our food right out to our picnic set up! More...

This not so little coffee shop is so beautiful! The natural wood and island feel isn't touristy at all but captures the beauty of Waimea's cool weather and beautiful landscape. We stopped in for cold brews and a bowl before the beach. The "açaí" bowl is AMAZING! It has a guava base with delicious granola, fresh fruit, coconut shavings and THE best local honey drizzled on top. The employees are super friendly and patient (as I'm sure lots of tourists stop in) and even gave my son EXTRA whipped cream on his hot chocolate. We stopped in again before camping at Spencer and will likely stop again after we leave! More...

Adorable little hole-in-the-wall coffee spot tucked away in a little boutique shopping area on the main drag into town from the beach. She loved the iced FrankenMatcha and the hot chocolate was solid as well. The atmosphere makes this feel like a "true" quirky coffee joint and the staff rounds out the experience--super nice and friendly. Thank you More...

Staff was rude, disrespectful, drinks were way overpriced $8 for a hot beverage? And they got my order completely wrong after waiting 15 min for it. Like, how do you charge $8 for a basic drink that you get completely wrong. Only reason I went here is because nothing else was open in the afternoon. Do not recommend, go elsewhere! More...

I like the matcha latte, a little bitter for my taste which I really like. My husband liked his chai latte and we both enjoyed their carrot cake. The ambiance was countryside vibe which is perfect for the weather. The lady that helped us wasn't friendly. I hope the manager will train the employees of customer service. More...

Inside is tiny and has a hole in the wall local mountain coffee shop vibe. Food and drink came out fairly quick--not a long wait. Total for coffee (+extra charge for oatmilk) + burrito (extra charge for avocado) = $27. Kinda pricey but burrito was good. The southwest chicken burrito melt: it's a chunky burrito that made me gordo.. Added avocado for extra charge, but the creamy avocado and flavorful cheesy corn bean salsa meshed well with the lime juice, the sweet BBQ sauce, and the ranch like dip. Must get. Love it. Maybe my tastebuds were dancing because my stomach was empty. I left feeling content. Vanilla latte with oatmilk: Can get any flavor (ie hazelnut, local honey, etc) but was recommended to get vanilla. Got it. Coffee could have been brewed stronger and was a little too watery. Need to change the type of oatmilk they use: Saw the barrista using the Costco oatmilk and that's a bit too watery. They should maybe try oatly or any oatmilk that's creamier. Side note, The heart was pretty. :) More...

We were on our way to Hilo and stopped for coffee. This is such a cool place right off the main road. Easy going local vibe walking in. The staff was friendly and welcoming. Being a coffee connoisseur, I always love the rich flavor of Kona coffee and this place did not disappoint. The latte was velvety as it should be and rich in flavor. The blueberry muffin was fresh and tasty. We will definitely be stopping here on our way back. Ciao! More...

Perfect lunch spot! We had a few hours as we were changing sides of the island. We stopped to have lunch and found Waimea coffee. We split a grilled cheese and chicken burrito. Grilled cheese was full of melty cheese and mayo with a nice potato leek soup. Burrito was big and flavorful. Great prices and food. We enjoyed a nice coffee while we waited and a baby chicken circled our table. There are boutique shots around as well if you want to shop before or after. More...

Good coffee and food. Surly service. We had coffee and a mixed berry muffin. Both were very good. We spoke to two of the servers. One was helpful and friendly. The other, with a nose ring and many piercings, was not friendly at all. I asked for our muffin to be heated. She took it into the kitchen. When she brought it out, she hadn't heated it at all. When I asked questions she answered with dismissive responses. It is too bad about the one server. Everything else was great. More...

This used to be the go to place in high school back in the 2017 era (iconic). It was a staple kick it spot. The iced dirty chais were iconic. The space was always warm and welcoming. Fast forward to 2023 and I'm visiting my hometown from Seattle. First stop before the house, poke bowl and Waimea Coffee Co. The layout is a little bit different, but same nostalgic vibe comes through. The crowd was truthfully bittersweet. I'm happy that the cafe has blown up. There were basically no places to sit, so we sat on the lawn. Out of all the time we came, it was packed, even in the middle of the day. The bitter part is to see how many tourists and transplants have taken over my hometown. Just note, if you're looking to visit or move to Hawai'i, do your research and be respectful :) I literally felt like I was back in Seattle lol like how can you still be passive aggressive and ignorant in literal paradise?? Anyways, give this place their flowers. Beautiful cafe with delicious treats and coffee. Drive thru available, seating available, parking lot. More...

"It's your golden hourYou slow down timeIn your golden hour (Oh-oh-oh)..."Early morning wake-up call courtesy of coqui frogs chirping and roosters crowing is what country living is all about. Waking up in rural Kea'au and on a whim deciding to drive across the Big Island to Kamuela is what my Bestie, Kyra & I, decided to do. We honestly did not want to enjoy our last day on the Island in the rain hopping mud puddles, so we both vibe'd a drive! The drive over was something you don't see on O'ahu or San Francisco lol... we decided on the Saddle Road which is miles and miles of Parker Ranch-land, the cows, rams, horses, and native birds were a joy to see. And when we passed by Mauna Kea, I told Bestie to look at the snow peak, and the joy in her eyes warmed my heart. Who would have thought a 50-mile drive would be so special as Golden Hour by JVKE played... The Sun broke out along the way, but all the time, as enjoyable as the drive was, as hella cute my Bestie glowed, I was jittery and in need of coffee STAT! Lol! And waking up we had no clue where we would get coffee until we approached Kamuela! Serendipity it is! Bestie started Yelping as we approached where Paniolo Cowboy life is alive and well... she tossed out a few names, some mainland chain names meh, and Waimea Coffee Company! We agreed that let's keep it local and we headed directly to Waimea! Waimea Coffee Company is located in a rustic looking outdoor shopping area. Book shops, gift shops, people enjoying the day on the porch or lanai, country and soft rock guitar playing greets us at the doorway. We immediately fell in love with the vibe. Just easy going and no one in a rush. Not much cafe tables, but just enough inside and outside to keep customers happy. Picnic benches on the grass area with roosters! The menu was more than we expected... crafted coffee drinks and teas, baked goods, and even lunch items. We had no desire for lunch as we already had plans lined up for later. I chose Hot Peppermint Mocha and Bestie chose Iced Chai Latte (almond milk), Coconut Loaf, Coconut Macaroon added. Just note to check-in before ordering because there's a Yelp discount if you do! We didn't know until after we ordered the drinks, but Bestie used it for the loaf! :) We managed to find a spot on the communal table which allowed us to really soak up the country ambiance! Ok, ok! Most customers were tourists but hey the Wood don't lie! :D Just a nice spot to collect ourselves after the country drive! Oh my! After my first sip of the Peppermint Mocha I knew it was of high quality - then I read they use Kamuela coffee! Bestie enjoyed her Chai Latté and she was kind enough to share her Coconut Loaf which paired nicely with my drink. The Coconut Macaroon was tasty, but heavy and on the richer side, and probably not the best choice for pre-Brunch, but hey I love my Coconut, so... In the end, we both really enjoyed collecting our thoughts at Waimea Coffee Company. Highly recommended if in the area... top quality drinks, a solid menu, the country vibes was strong here. Not a place to be in a rush, but a spot to take a step back and enjoy the moment. Serendipity was on our side once again... and as JVKE said...You slow down time;) More...
