I love Verna’s coffee! I don’t have to drive all the way to Lihue to enjoy my iced coffee!

My wife and I love to try out local coffee shops and were excited to try this place. It has a drive up window and is located behind a taco restaurant. We both threw out the sad drinks we were served today. We ordered a vanilla latte and a cappuccino. Interestingly, both drinks looked and tasted identical — like three day old burnt Folger’s with bubbly milk on top… disgusting. They did not smell good which should have been our first warning. The vanilla was missing from the latte and did I mention they tasted horrible?! Kauai is known for great coffee — Java Hut is not. Save your money and grab coffee elsewhere.

A small little drive thru coffee/espresso place in Waimea right behind the Taco place. I walked up to the window and the barista was SO nice! I didn’t know what I wanted, so I told her I wanted lots of espresso and caramel and she made me a triple shot latte with caramel syrup. It was to die for! So good that I asked for a little less sweet one for my husband. He loved it so much that he walked over and got us more the next morning. She was very fast and efficient and had great suggestions on what to have. I will for sure be going back next time we are on the west side

I can’t believe that I live so close to this place that I didn’t stop by years earlier. It’s like a hidden jewel that once discovered becomes a favored piece. It’s a quaint little drive-thru with the friendliest barrista that gets your drink to where you want it and remains consistent to the point where it is a regular stop(at least 3 times a week) for my family. They have everything from stuffed soft pretzels to milk shakes. The owner/operator see’s us at the window and immediately asks«having your regular?» I always have a sugar-free vanilla soy latte and she has not stopped being consistent from the first day she got it right. One thing that I love about the place is the price factor. Irregardless of whether you want milk, fat-free or soy. Whipped cream or not, the price stays the same. No charge for extra’s. Ask for a Java Hut card if you plan on coming back again. After 10 purchases(drinks) you have one for free. The owners smile and aloha is reason enough for a stop over.

Located behind the Na Pali Explorer office is a great little coffee joint. I had a hot chai latte. It hit the spot before getting on a Zodiac and zooming up the coast. Looked like mostly local traffic(a line of big trucks). A one woman shop when I was there, but she was nice and speedy. Cash Only.

great place to get your coffee fix… its a small little coffee stand behind a restaurant(Island Taco-Waimea) but the service and taste are EXCELLENT! not to mention, its a drive thru!.. dont wanna drive? they have a walk up window also… WAY better and cheaper than Starbucks… also, they have some unique flavors like Snickers, Almondy Joy, German Chocolate Cake and some others… you can also choose your own flavor from the list of options they have… hot, cold, iced, blended… whatever way you want it. they got it… did I mention most of them can also be made decaf or with soy? also have some sugar free flavors. so if youre on kauai and heading to the waimea canyon, polihale, or anywhere down west. take a spin by Java Hut… you dont even have to get out of your car… just drive up to the window, order your drink and be on your merry way… I recommend this place to ANYONE who LOVES coffee! also.they are open from 530am til 3pm… so you got LOTS of time to go there in between your busy schedule… definetly WORTH it!!!
