👍👍 I love everything at PeleKai! All of the selections are very well curated. Emily and Dave have put so much thought into everything from the coffee selections and super food lattes to the beautiful lighting and cute pink chairs outside. The cortado is strong, tasty, very satisfying. I also love the i...

Cafe Villamor
Coffee shop
👍👍 Lovely hidden gem on a side street. They have the fastest wifi I’ve experienced at any cafe, a really friendly crew, and plenty of community with the climbing community. The owner is always experimenting with new drinks and food items, which keeps things fresh. Great place to study, read, or have so...

👍👍 Po'ai is a new shop that opened this month. This shop is tucked away in the upper part of Chinatown, which makes this the perfect mid-day hide away or a nice spot for a meeting. The delicious espresso drinks and lemonade showcase the shop's locally make syrups. These syrups can be purchased at the...

👍 No Wifi No Outlets Dine in seating only from 9am to 2pm and limited to only 1 hour seating I went to this place in hopes of studying at around 2pm only to find out that they close their dine in area at that same time (shucks). Even so, I had their iced hazelnut latte and it was super good! Not sure...

👍 Came in for an early-ish lunch (11:30) on a Saturday, no wait for a table. We ordered the stir fried eggplant + tofu and pad kee mao with chicken (drunken noodles) and both were delicious and fresh! Stir fry had a refreshing taste of basil and garlic, good balance of sweet, salt, and spice. Plenty o...

😠 I bought tinctures for pain, anxiety and sleep …the relief bottle had been used. No packaging. Not even sealed. They don’t have the ingredients listed and the person didn’t even tell me the actual differences other than they all have different flavors… something fishy is going on… they aren’t even l...

😐 Coffee is well priced and the baristas are welcoming! Only problem I have with this place is that I wish they were more transparent about themselves. If you’re a 1 hour coffee shop just say that and make that known. I went to this coffee shop for about 3-4days. First day I got a day pass for the wor...

😠 Staff was rude and not paying attention to certain customers. They also were not serving any food due to their toaster not working. It's a very small place and I had to ask to pay twice. The coffee was underwhelming, and I had to listen to the workers swearing every two seconds. Overall, the environ...
