Hawaiian Fresh Roast Coffee - Honolulu

The owner of the restaurant was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the coffee roasting process. The coffee was excellent.

Came here on a Saturday morning expecting it to be busy. It's located in Dole Cannery, so parking was a breeze. Just had to walk in to find their business. When I got there, I stood in line. Had like one more person in front of me. I overheard the owner, Fred, say that his employee called out sick last minute. I was like damn, that sucks. Anyway, he was running a one man show this morning. He took like 3 orders, then made their orders, then took another 3, made them. So the wait was very long. BUT, the Kona Mocha Freeze was REALLY yummy! I could actually taste the espresso in it. I'm sure the wait wouldn't have been that long if he just had another person with him. He was a super nice guy. The only thing that I didn't see up when I went inside was a menu. I had no idea what to order, so I had to look on here for some options. I would come here again!

Overall, this place is a good spot. I ordered a mocha freeze and an iced espresso with a splash of whole milk. The mocha freeze was good, but was lacking “body” and was on the thinner side to the drink. The espresso was Kona Peaberry and that was delightful to sip on. It really packs a punch and the flavors were bright and fruity. Neil and Sung were of great service and provided the good recommendations. The atmosphere is chill and inviting. You walk up and then wait for your drink. The location is inside the Dole building to the right.

Great owner providing a good product with AC and plenty tables with free WiFi! Then you can hit up Costco after!!
