About this experience

Coffee Shops in Puako is a curated guide to the cafés and coffee stands along the Puako coastline on Hawaii's Big Island. It highlights local roasters and farm-to-cup options within a short drive of the resort areas. The guide focuses on the specific brews, pastries, and ocean-view seating available at each location.

What to expect

  • Visit three to five independent coffee shops within a 10-mile radius of Puako, each with its own single-origin Kona or Ka'u bean selection.
  • Expect to spend 45 to 90 minutes total, including travel time between stops, with each café offering indoor or lanai seating.
  • Sample a 'café au lait' made with locally roasted beans and macadamia nut milk at one stop, and a cold brew steeped for 18 hours at another.
  • Observe the baristas pour latte art and explain the roast profile of each bean, from light and fruity to dark and chocolatey.
  • Find pastries such as lilikoi danishes, coconut scones, and banana bread baked fresh each morning, often sourced from nearby Hilo bakeries.
  • Suitable for coffee enthusiasts and casual visitors alike, with most shops offering free Wi-Fi and outdoor tables facing the ocean.
