We came here with a couple local friends and had a great lunch an enjoyed the view in spite of the rain. the help is no overly friendly, but the food is good and the ambiance worth the drive.

My 2nd time back to the Coffee Shack was even better than the first. They have added a second dining area to the back plus the under growth has been cut back to provide a spectacular open air view of the Kealakekua Bay below.

We ate here at the recommendation of the concierge at our resort, once for lunch and once for breakfast. Plenty of food prepared with an island flair. The breads were especially remarkable.

Stopped here on our way to Capt Cook for some sandwiches to go. We also had a delicious brownie. Beautiful views right from the parking area. The service was warm and friendly and the sandwiches were great.

Perfect soup. Perfect shakes. And guess what...sandwiches and cakes perfect too. Cute gekkoes living on the ballustrade. Cinematic sweeping view down mountain to ocean.

I got a cup of soup with a piece of bread, $4.95, just right amout of food. Hubby liked his sandwich, beautiful view. Watch for it as you are coming down the highway, you might have to do a turn around!

Little geckos watch us while sipping their sugar water. It's very old world charm while enjoying top of the world views. It's looking over... More

Came in around lunchtime as we were in the area. It is quite small on the inside, but the deck is beautiful and the views all around are amazing. Our food was very good; attentive service and we did purchase coffee by the pound here also. Heard about this place online and was not disappointed.
