    Just genuinely confused. Got a hot chocolate and a chai with a friend, waited about 30-40 min which really was not an issue for me but both of our drinks literally tasted like hot milk. What the hell was going on back there??

    Be prepared to wait. A WHILE. Two new people working. Manager not jumping in to help. Been here once before. Drinks also took a while.

    Ordered a Rose Matcha Latte and a donut. Waited well over 20 minutes and the girl working just straight up disappeared. Another worker showed up and another girl and I asked about our orders which just were sitting on the counter not made. Apparently they were out of rose and she just failed to mention that when I ordered. Matcha was fine. Waste of time coming all the way over here for subpar matcha & horrible service.

    Stopped in here for a coffee while exploring the area. The space is super cute with a variety of areas to sit and definitely fits the overall vibe with the decor! Took a little long for it to come out with it not being very busy but the coffee was delish as was the redtide berry bagel.

    They did a bait and switch. I ordered a cookie, the one in the case looked very big and fresh. What I got was a small, stale Costco cookie from the back room. It was really weird experience and not what I was used to previously here. The coffee was also watered down and they were out of several items on Friday at lunchtime. To finish it off the staff seemed confused, they took my order but then needed me to repeat it 3 times

    If you’re looking for good coffee, this is not it. I got an espresso, which came in a 12 oz cup, and almost half full. It was under extracted and lacked a lot of flavor. If espresso is the base of a lot of their drinks, then the same quality will follow.

    While the coffee was excellent, the service was quite slow, and the cookies we ordered were unfortunately rock-hard.

    Nice atmosphere. The lattes are underwhelming and on the expensive side too.

    Great space and employees. Only complaint is my iced matcha latte, took it to go and regretted not tasting it fully before I left. Initial flavor was good, but I realized after that I got a bunch of matcha powder on my first sip. I also added ube flavoring which was not noticeable at all and a bit disappointing. Still giving a 4 star because I did hear the employee who made was fairly new or new to making matcha. I look forward to coming back and hopefully having a better iced matcha latte.

    Update: for visit 1/18/2024 Had a previous issue with cold egg bites after waiting 20 minutes. When I spoke with the barista on my next visit this week, he handed me a card. After leaving I read the card and it was for a Dole Whip. Seriously, 2 orders of cold inedible egg bites and ruined lunch and I am handed a card for Dole Whip. An item I have never ordered nor will I because I do not eat sugar. SMH. Very disappointed. Love these people and their coffee!!!!

    My mocha was really good. The employees were really nice and the environment is comfortable and inviting. We checked Google Maps before going to see how busy they were. They didn't look busy. When we walked in all the seating, while there is a lot, was taken except about 4 seats at the bar. We decided to sit at the bar. After about 10 minutes several seats opened up and we moved. It was between 3:00 and 3:30 on a Thursday afternoon. We will definitely go back.

    13/10 spot!! I have never seen a happier/more beautiful interior in my life! The mixture of vintage and DIY design work is incredible. It felt like a small piece of Hawaii in KC. I will be forever in love with this place. Creative and delicious food/ drink options.

    You know a place is beautiful when you spend the whole time saying, “Wow, this is so pretty!” Beautiful people make beautiful places so much better! The Baristas were patient as we navigated the Hawaiian themed menu. They made suggestions and let us try our different items so we got our monies worth. I had the Hawaiian sunset tea which featured beautiful garnish and my friend enjoyed a very smooth Rose Latte! For sure a place where you can work and enjoy a nice vibe.

    This cafe has excellent tropical vibes with genuine decoration and rare collectables from around the world. The coffee is excellent the food is unique and really affordable (recommend the Mango Bagel Toast). The staff is very friendly. The bathrooms are very clean and the seating is incredibly comfortable. My experience was like visiting a friend and having breakfast in their living room. I would definitely recommend.
