Honolulu Coffee

I enjoyed Honolulu coffee so much so I visit this location as well. The batista were very professional and friendly. The Hawaiian latte and cappuccino were perfect! I'd like to come back again.

I really enjoyed the strawberry and ube croissants, both were tasty and well made. The coffee was fairly regular. The staff was kind, though the overall service could be better.

Great location. Like a cozy hideaway. Bright and clean. Good protein balls. Espresso is a tad acidic but with milk it’s good. Staff is friendly.

I ordered a macchiato at first. I didn’t expect it in a mini size and was ah…and the lovely manager saw my face and asked if I would like another coffee. And I ordered a cappuccino. It looked and tasted Great. Her service WOW me. I would definitely come back again.

I loved my Fruits and cream croissant and the Flat White woth oat milk was surprisingly amazing. The staff showed me which oat milk they use and they are super welcoming. Calm and fresh ambiance, this is a beautiful spot. 🙏🏼

I have been to this place back around 2018, and then revisited a few times this year in 2025. I was amazed at the service, the food quality, and the drink quality. Is it the best food on the world? No. But their coffee beverages (hot and cold) were pretty good. It's got Wifi and great seating if you want to sit and get some work done. Overall great "Hawaii" theme going on and nice colours for their interior. Staff are friendly and very chill and nice. My only criticism is that it can be noisy sometimes and some of their items are a bit pricey. Lots of people talking (including staff) of it bothers you. But overall it's a great place for a coffee and snack and will definately be coming back more often. Bonus : Their Ube cheesecake muffin was really good and a surprise hit for us. I also really enjoyed their Hawaiian sandwich.

This place was 💯. Came here for an 8 am breakfast and wasn't disappointed - the Hawaiian latte and mango lilikoi croissant were DELICIOUS! Great decor and ambiance.

Their Hawaiian latte and matcha latte were so delicious with amazing latte art. Super friendly staff and a cozy spacious cafe!! I’ll definitely be back👍

Spicy hot chocolate? Yes, please! @honolulucoffeeyvr is back with their Vancouver Hot Chocolate Festival creations, and this iconic cafe did not disappoint! Kim's Berry - A spicy gochujang strawberry hot chocolate with oat milk & 70% dark chocolate Floral Glow - A citrus guava hot chocolate that's like biting into a juicy chocolate orange Both are served with the softest vegan strawberry & orange almond cookies for the ultimate dunking experience! My personal fav was the Kim's Berry which was so unexpected! The sweet strawberry notes ended with a small kick of heat that was just perfect.

I was in need of an afternoon pick me up, so I stopped here because of the high reviews. I ordered a matcha latte and loved how strong the matcha flavor was in it. I'm also a sucker for aesthetic coffee so I appreciated the latte art on it as well. With how strong the matcha flavor was, I expected to be decently caffeinated, however, unfortunately, I felt like the drink barely woke me up. Overall, I'd give taste and aesthetics a 10/10, however, if you're looking to actually be caffeinated, I'd pass on this. The coffee itself is actually pretty large and very aesthetic! I like how bright everything was and the Hawaii theme that they had going on. The baristas here were friendly and our drinks came out pretty quickly. There was plenty of seating when I went and I think that this would be a great place to study or catch up with a friend.

I've had Honolulu Cafe while I was in Oahu, so I was surprised to see there was one in BC when I was looking for some matcha! It was very busy. The line moved fast to order, but the wait time was maybe about 10-15 which wasn't terrible. It was fairly quiet inside when we went, we were there around 10 am or so. My matcha tasted great! Good ratio of matcha to milk and not too frothy. I was quite satisfied, I'd been looking for matcha! I wish they had the menu items like poke bowls like on the island, but that's just a personal wish :)

What a treat to get a piece of Hawaii in Vancouver. They had local flavors and had the Hawaiian vibes. With delightful pastries, small bites, coffee and drinks for all. The place was spacious and clean. Where everywhere had long lanes in the rain they were hustling slinging orders with minimal turnover time. This was perfect for my morning walk, hungry and cold. All the details in the drinks to the cups were absolutely adorable.

Honolulu Coffee has the perfect lofi coffee shop vibe. There's chairs and benches of all kinds, a long communal table, and large windows to lounge by, rain or shine. The Hawaiian latte is delicious and you can absolutely taste the macadamia nuts. Whole beans are sold on a shelf next to the register in case you want to brew it at home. The service is speedy and friendly, even during a morning rush, and there's tons of seating if you'd prefer not to stand while waiting for your order.

Disappointing that today is not my day for coffee. I'm also quite disappointed that service was just barely a sliver above okay. I ordered 2 iced Hawaiian lattes (one with oat milk and one regular), and a Hawaiian cream cold brew. The cold brew was extremely sour, and not what I expected. I hate asking for a redo, but I honestly feel most places would offer to make a different drink for me, but the baristas only offered to add more cream to the cold brew. (No cream will really fix sour in my opinion.) That was a half attempt on their part to make it right. I went ahead and ordered a Hawaiian latte with oat milk and felt this still missed the mark. I took a picture of my friend's Hawaiian latte with oat milk compared to mine. As seen in the image, the colors are different despite being the same drink. There isn't consistency. In the end, one of the baristas did add an extra shot of espresso for me free of charge, but by then, I felt my impression was already colored after having purchased a total of 4 drinks. The place was clean, but I don't see myself coming back.

Coffee bar, not located in a high traffic area, but very busy on a Sunday afternoon, so people are coming here to hang out. It is located within downtown Vancouver, and was within walking distance of our hotel. It has very comfortable seating throughout, and there was a wide variety of ages and ethnicity hanging out. There were only two baristas working, so waiting was mandatory, but one of them prepared my wife's Hawaiian Latte ($6.30) really quickly once the order was placed. Hawaiian = macadamia nut coffee with coconut milk. she really liked it. Unfortunately for me, the free wi-fi refused to work, no matter what I tried. They do sell 100% Kona coffee at the expected high prices.

Nice big spacious coffee shop in the heart of downtonwn. Parking here sucks unfortunately. The place looks pretty modern, and has a nice tropical theme thanks to some murals on the wall. Staff are friendly. The coffee is pretty tasty. Not sure how authentic their coffee is, but it's decent.

Cute, island-theme coffee shop in downtown! I stopped by before taking the SkyTrain back to the airport since it was right by the hotel I was staying at. The place is tucked inside a small plaza. I ordered the seasonal Matcha Lilikoi Cream Latte, bacon cheddar scone, and guava bread. Service was nice and attentive. The whipped cream of the latte definitely made it! I think most of its flavor was lilikoi dominated as opposed to matcha. The drink itself was alright The bacon cheese scone was decent. The guava bread was my favorite thing I ordered! The actual flavor of guava really came through in the bread. It was so tasty A cute spot with a big space to chat or work! (For the maximum of two hours though!)

I always enjoy the Hot Chocolate Festival in Vancouver every year. Honolulu Coffee offered a hot chocolate I had never seen before! Customers received a brush pen and could draw pictures with activated charcoal ink, and they even had an art contest! It was really fun! #93 - CALLI-COCO Available January 13 - February 14, 2024 A fun hot chocolate with INK-spiration! The base, a heavenly blend of 28% white chocolate and perfectly steamed milk. A glass of jet-black enchantment by the side, a concoction of activated charcoal power, sesame paste and the fragrant touch of earl grey. With the provided brush pen*, the canvas is yours to paint. To add a touch of your artistic experience, this set include a delicate fortune cookie, offers not just a drink but a journey of self-expression and discovery. On the side is a gourmet style fortune cookie. The hot chocolate itself was okay, but what's most important for this hot chocolate is that it offers a very unique option, allowing customers to enjoy artwork!

Lovely spacious coffee shop with Hawaiian vibes. Got an iced americano and latte for my friend, and it was nutty and very much to my liking. Felt like I was in Hawaii for sure. They had lots of yummy sweet options as well and staff were all very friendly.

honolulu coffee, located at nelson square, at 888 nelson street g1, is a vibrant and cozy café with a hawaiian theme. the interior features a mural on the wall with palm trees, a sunset, and the phrase "brewed with aloha" in large letters, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. the café is quite spacious, with tables and chairs arranged to create a lively and social environment. the seating area is comfortable and casual, encouraging relaxation and conversation among patrons. the lighting is warm and inviting, with hanging pendant lights adding to the cozy ambiance. plants and natural elements, like the stone column, enhance the space with greenery and freshness. this café offers a charming and relaxed environment, perfect for enjoying a cup of kona coffee with pastries and sweets or even a pale ale, while soaking in the pleasant surroundings. during my visit, i had the hawaiian iced latte with oat milk. it was a delightful treat, perfectly balancing the rich flavours of macadamia and coconut with the smooth creaminess of oat milk, making it a refreshing and indulgent drink.

Why 5 stars? Because anything Hawaii Coffee is a hit with us and this was no exception. --- --- --- We had already stopped for breakfast at another place, but purposely saved our coffee order for Honolulu Coffee. We couldn't help but order a couple of of additional snacks in a banana cream cheese muffin and a cheddar biscuit, which were great, but the coffee was excellent as usual. I ordered a Hand Brew, which initially the employee said he wouldn't be able to make because he was the only person working, but then he offered to make it as long as I was willing to wait 10-15 minutes. I appreciated that, as that's really what I wanted to order. And it turned out to be just as pure and amazing as I hoped it would be. We would have loved to buy some beans too, but they are incredibly expensive. Granted, that's not Honolulu Coffee marking them up - Hawaiian beans are just crazy costly. Thanks for the great start to our morning, Honolulu Coffee!

Honestly the only reason that people come to this specific coffee shop at this location is because it is in a building with a lot of private offices and it's a quick and easy choice for coffee and something to hold you over as a snack/breakfast pastry. Unfortunately, this specific location doesn't seem to refresh their ingredients frequently and you will get stuck with wilted or bad produce within your sandwiches. I'd stick to a simple coffee and maybe a pastry if you're really in need of something. The service here is a bit on the slower side but friendly for the most part. Maybe try out a different location as the aesthetic of this franchise has Hawaiian vibes which brings their other locations up to 4 stars and above.

What festive and summer vibe-ey coffee shop in the heart of the city. Walking in, you'll immediately all the great things they have to offer coffee goers: plenty of seating, some even with outlets and plexi glass partitions; food, ranging from pastries to savory croissant sandwiches; merch and coffee beans to-go. The place smelled delish, almost as if the aroma of pizza was in the air. Was it the savory sandwiches or perhaps a nearby pizza shop? I'll never know. But beware, you may want pizza on your way out. I was there for about an hour to handle work calls and sip on a matcha latte and also grab an almond milk latte to go. Additional pros: They have a punch card system; after your 10th drink purchase, you can redeem a $6 bev of choice. Only con: The guest internet was very wonky for me. After a few times that I lost connect, I packed up my bags and went back to my hotel.

I got to check this place out last week on our trip to Vancouver! The shop itself was very clean and cozy. Walking in, they were pretty busy with lots of people sitting and hanging out. Ordering was quick and easy. The line moved quickly and we didn't wait long for our drinks and food. I ordered a triple vanilla oat milk latte! I loved being able to taste the Kona coffee in it. My latte wasn't very sweet, which was a pleasant surprise because I came here excited to try Kona espresso. I felt that it was fairly priced, and I'd absolutely come back on our next Vancouver trip.

3.5 stars - cold brew coffee we got was still just ok after it was tweaked a bit. The servers were friendly but one of them was super loud, even as she was cleaning the tables; I thought someone was trying to deliberately smash the cups and plates. Location near court. Shop is pretty large with nice decor and plentiful seating.

full of everyone working on their laptops or just having a quick chat, Hawaiian aesthetic is on point, and plenty of seating all around! ordered the hot macadamia nut coffee and iced matcha coconut drink (limited to spring time only) and honestly not bad at all! staff is really nice, wifi available, and bathrooms are clean af

Super cute loved the vibes. The staff was super helpful and the setup was super cute.

Remains a great spot for coffee in downtown Vancouver. Love the ample seating and free wifi. Service is quick. Gets quite warm in here!

Stopped by here on our stop in Vancouver while waiting for our cruise. Their macadamia nut latte with oatmilk was the perfect balance of sweetness, nuttiness, and an actual coffee flavor. Wish they had a Honolulu coffee shop in Los Angeles, I find myself craving this coffee and have yet to find a spot with a similar taste.

Such a great spot for good coffee and a quick bite. Came on a Sunday morning and there were a decent amount of seats. We ordered, sat down and got our food pretty quickly. We ordered a ham and cheese croissant, bacon breakfast sandwich, matcha cookie, a regular latter and a Hawaiian latte. We both really enjoyed our breakfast sandwiches. The ham and cheese croissant was toasted very nicely, the bacon breakfast sandwich was also good. There was a sauce/dressing in the sandwich I wasn't expecting, kind of like a vinaigrette, but I enjoyed it. Lattes were good, I really enjoyed the subtle but sweet nutty flavor in the Hawaiian latte.

I got the matcha wasn't too bad but I need to try the coffee here, I will change my review once I try that! But the customer service was 5/5 stars, the baristas were to interactive and nice and helpful, I love it

Great coffee shop near Sheraton Wall Centre. The atmosphere and space are both clean and welcoming. The Kona coffee and matcha latte were both really good.

Absolutely love the vibes here. Came twice on back to back days during my visit to Vancouver and it's such a nice place to start your day off. On the first day my friends and I came, I ordered the Hawaiian latte which was delicious. I loved the subtle hint of coconut while not being too sweet or overbearing... I had to come back for it a second time. My friends all said the food and drinks they got were good too. Unfortunately the next day, there were 2 workers that tarnished both mine and my friends' experience, as the entire visit was totally different from the previous day. They were very obviously in a huge rush despite there being an average-sized line. Cashier was pretty cold and the barista got two of my friend's orders wrong.. when it was brought to her attention, she tried to convince them to still take it, admitting that they're in a rush. The barista had also clearly rushed to make the drinks, as we all noticed that the Hawaiian latte tasted completely different from the previous day... lacking the coconutty flavours and tasting like a regular latte. For a third day, my friend returned and noted that he looked to see who was working before ordering. Since the workers were different, it was terrific. I won't let that bad experience from 2 individuals spoil this review of the place as a whole, because the atmosphere and their drinks/food is amazing. Overall highly recommend for cute and relaxing cafe vibes.

LOVED this place while we were visiting the area, it was our go to coffee stop. I highly recommend the Vegan protein balls and the Hawaiian Latte. Service was always so friendly and breakfast sandwiches were so good.

This is always a fun place to stop for a quick bite. I love the tropical aesthetic with the feel of the open air cafe! It's the best when it's a nice (or just nice-ish) day and the windows are open and you can feel the breeze while you're inside... It seems like it's always busy around lunch, when I usually come, but I've always been able to find a spot inside or in the patio area. Between this downtown location and the other cafes, I've been here many times and gotten the chance to try a lot of the menu. There are always a few very cool seasonal drinks which keeps things fresh. My personal favourites for food are the veggie quiche and the guava loaf (or whatever seasonal loaf is available), but everything is great. For drinks, I usually go for whatever is seasonal, but they also do really good matcha lattes, and lattes are very good too - again, you can't go wrong. It's a little expensive but it's all really good stuff! They have a small retail selection where you can buy their jams, dressings, beans, and merchandise. I'm not much of a coffee nerd but if you are, they have a few different unique beans from Hawaii here.

Good friendly service and nearby the hotels and law courts(if your in trouble..lol) and I was able to have a Hawaiian latte just like I did in Hawaii. Just not as warm as Hawaii, weather wise. Breakfast sandwich was tasty and hit the spot for a morning start.

This was our last stop before flying home and I'm so glad that we stopped by here as it wasn't originally on the itinerary. What prompted us to come were their croissants but I also grabbed a Hawaiian Latte as well which was delicious! It was creamy, nutty, and sweet so I have no complaints. I normally take a while to finish my drinks but I finished it pretty quickly as it was super tasty. We grabbed the chocolate hazelnut, lilikoi mango, and matcha crossaints to go. I ate mine the next day without microwaving or airfrying it and it was very airy and tasted fresh still to my surprise. My friend thought her croissants could've used more cream but mine were pretty stuffed. Overall, I am happy with my experience at Honolulu Coffee and would definitely come back next time I'm in Vancouver and am craving coffee and/or pastries!

This place is the spot to chill out and nice clean and mostly importantly friendly staff! Highly recommended for those morning breakfast

On my Vancouver Bucket List of places to visit I would like to have 1 of EVERYTHING! I ordered a Hawaiian Latte with 1 % milk and a breakfast sandwich. The coffee and sandwich tasted delicious. Will be visiting everyday unitI leave.

Hawaiian foam cold brew for the win! I came in for a hot drink thanks to all the beautifully presented pics of fancy lattes and had to try one but on the counter I saw a special Hawaiian foam cold brew and caved for Hawaiian foam. It had a slight coconut heavier milk taste that was delicious with this blend. The coffee flavor is delicious and I didn't add any sweetness to this drink because I wanted to really test the flavor and I actually loved it just like that. There are syrups and sugars on the side though if you'd like some. I really liked there beach vibe and all of their seating around gives you plenty of options to either sit alone or with friends in cozy spots. They have restroooms, Wi-Fi, and a very friendly team so I hung out for some time getting some social media scrolling done and had a great time.

Honolulu coffee truly brings you back to Honolulu, in the middle of a busy downtown Vancouver! Their Hawaiian coffee/latte definitely brings back so many fun and fond memories I have of Waikiki. The Hawaiian latte I got was very similar to the latte I got at Hawaiian Village coffee in Honolulu, rich and full of coconut flavor. I also love their shop! They have merchandise for purchase and fresh flowers decor on every table! There are plenty of indoor and outdoor seatings too and it's in a corporate plaza first floor. I didn't try any pastries but they all looked pretty and delicious! I would highly recommend!

Loved the vibe and location of the downtown cafe. Can get noisy at times so not sure if we can really work all the time They have patio setup as well for summers. The caprese sandwich was ok. The matcha latte was good. Friendly staff and wifi available :)

The Hawaiin latte is the best. It is quite sweet which I usually don't love but for this I make an exception. I would also recommend trying the hot chocolate festival options if you visit during the festival. There is a good amount of seating at this location. #ContestEntry

I was surprised to see a Honolulu Coffee in Vancouver. I wish they had locations in mainland U.S. I really miss the Hawaiian latte I had in Maui back in February. I decided to pop in after my workout and grabbed an iced Hawaiian soy latte with lilikoi mango cruffin. The cruffin was ok but the drinks are really where it's at. So glad I was able to stop in a grab a cup of Hawaiian latte during my stay in Vancouver.

Sunshine bowl was amazing! Staff was full of aloha spirit. Outside seating made the morning more enjoyable.

Absolutely love this place. It is such a delight to sit and enjoy your coffee (or tea) with some DELISH pastries or açaí bowl (I couldn't decide so I ordered everything). They do have seasonal items which are all amazing. The açaí bowl was my favorite. So many delicious toppings. The latte's are my favorite, they always taste so refreshing and not at all like cheap coffee.

I have been here a couple of times but will do another update after a year since I discover them during the Hot Chocolate Festival last year. I did look forward to this year's (2023) chocolate beverages entry, and it did not disappoint me. This time it's even better, it's called "The Donut" which is 70% cocoa with a shot of espresso finished with sea salt cheese cream frost. The drink is paired with a chocolate fudge donut which is a little bit sweet to my taste. Overall, I had a great experience every time I visit, a cozy environment, with different corners to chill, for groups and individuals, their coffee, sweets and savoury have always been enormous.

Came here with some coworkers after work due to hearing about the hot chocolate festival. The place was very spacious with lots of tables! We ordered Raincouver, which was super cute to take a picture with. The hot chocolate itself was good and the cotton candy cloud was pleasant to eat as it wasn't overly sweet like some other cotton candies. We also ordered the guava bread on the side. I absolutely loved it! It seemed a little short staffed and the prices were on the higher side, but I would definitely come again and try their original drinks.

Love this little cafe tucked in on Nelson and Hornby. Grabbed the cold cream coffee and the Hawaiian latte cold. Both drinks tasted amazing. There was a hint of coconut within both. Really enjoyed the Hawaiian latte over ice. Drank every last drop as it was a hot day. They have wifi and the cafe is pretty breezy even on a hot day. Great place for date and to just do your work.

I was vacationing in Vancouver and wanted to checkout a local cafe and came across this. I got the signature iced Hawaiian latte, it was stronger than I'd prefer but I usually go for sweet coffees. If you like stronger coffee, this place is for you. I think the coffee was better than their food. I ordered the ham and cheese croissant and my boyfriend ordered the bacon and egg sandwich. The food isn't fresh and they just microwave the food. My croissant was flimsy and sloppy, not at all flaky and crispy like typical croissants. Very disappointing. The coffee shop has a cute vibe but has a 2 hour time limit. You're better off going somewhere else.

Overall food was very tasty but bowls are $5 more than they should be and drip coffee at $3 for smallest cup ever should have refills. Staff is very friendly and enjoyed the open air concept, just need more realistic pricing for what it is.

They got it all here: fun drinks, free wifi, lots of seating, and super clean. I got a Hawaii Latte iced and it's so delicious with hints of macadamia/coconut! My friend got a smoothie and it was super good as well. It's hard to come across a good cafe to study or work at with enough seating space, but Honolulu Coffee is great!

Friendly barista and cute gem of a place in DTV. I'm from Honolulu visiting for the first time and stopped by was curious worth the matcha latte!

Guava bread was really good. Coffee was pretty average. Pastry selection is good and on brand with the Hawaiian/tropical theme. Good selection of take home beans. Quick service and a nice space to sit in when it's really warm out. Lots of parking out front on the street.

Delicious coffee! Recommend the Hawaiian latte and the Hawaiian Cold Brew if you don't want too much milk. Some of the pastries were mediocre though even though they look really appetizing. We got the Lilikoi Mango donut (best one), bacon cheddar scone (also pretty good but wished they warmed it up), the butter croissant (not good at all - soft exterior) and the lemon cruffin (liked the filling but again soft exterior even though it's supposed to be crunchy). We got it around 10:30am so maybe you have to get it really fresh in the morning?

One of my favourite coffee spots in Vancouver! I frequent both the downtown and Olympic Village locations. I'm not from Hawaii, but I'm from the East Coast of Australia, so the overall surfy/beach vibe at Honolulu Coffee makes me feel right at home. I enjoy the black coffee at Honolulu, and the Hawaiian latte. Also: the cream cheese muffin. Absolutely delightful. The downtown location has a big table ideal for working from a laptop also! Staff are always friendly and there's just a real cosy atmosphere here.

On the odd occasion where I am in downtown during the day on a weekday, I absolutely MUST stop by Honolulu Coffee. My favourite and go-to drink is their Hawaiian Latte. Actually, it's probably the GOAT of lattes for me. That combination of coconut and macadamia nut is just so heavenly! A must-try if you haven't already. On this day, I also could not resist those pastries staring at me through the display. I decided on the Lilikoi Mango Cruffin and Vanilla Brioche Doughnut. I've been hooked on Butterboom Bakery pastries since my first bite just over a year ago. They are so good!
