My goodness people love coffee! In the case of Coffee shop 831 people love the smooties, croissants, matcha lattes, etc etc. That being said expect a bit of a wait. Coffee was fresh and locally sourced. Compostable straws, utensils, and cups are what’s up! Thanks Coffee shop 831.

The oatmilk latte was pretty good, but the reason for the 4 stars is the service. Not sure if they were down a person the day I went but they were very inefficient. I waited about 20 minutes for my drink. I would go again in the service improves!

One of my favorite places for a healthy and delicious breakfast. Organic Coffee and Smoothies, besides the Breakfast Sandwiches which are a must. Love the decoration too and there is always Surfing passing on TV!

Food: relatively healthy feel, fresh fruit. Coffee (medium roast) not over-powering, balanced. Gluten free options.Ambiance: chill, non-tourist feeling, localService: friendly, easyBottom Line: definitely visit to get away from chain restaurant feeling

Really good drip and lattes. Smaller shop on a side street in Waikiki. Highly recommend this location especially since some of the other shops have crazy long lines...Finding good coffee on this island has been difficult, which is a bummer.

By far my most favorite place in Waikiki. The coffee beans used is of prestine quality. The smoothies are the freshest (sesame banana is so good!) The breakfast sandwiches....this is the only place Ill spend $8-9 on a breakfast sandwich and buy more than one to eat! Theyre so amazing!!! The papaya boat is the most refreshing fruit bowl on the island!! My girlfriend and I are obsessed with this place and we are so lucky to live on the other side of the building!! I wish I could give this charming place a 10 star review!!

Awesome little spot for coffee and breakfast. Everything was 👌🏽. You get 30 cents off if you bring your own cup/mug or use compostable bag/utensils.Staff and ambiance were excellent

Cute Cafe with moderately priced breakfast options. It reminded me of the north shore than Waikiki with its eccentric decorations and focus on fresh fruits and vegetables. Prices were still the same range as a hotel breakfast place, but this place has the character and comfort that most hotel restaurants lack.

I got a green smoothie and a matcha latte here. The smoothie was mediocre, and the matcha latte was 95% milk and very watered down. We waited about 20-25 minutes for our food. Cute local shop, but don’t get the matcha here.

In my opinion best coffee place in Honolulu. Coffee is good, panini is yummy and staff is SUPER FRIENDLY! Can be a bit crowded in the mornings, but worth it to wait. Just add a few extra minutes and your day will start on the right foot!

My Latte was excellent, my wife ordered a caramel macchiato and it was also just right for her. We had the Papaya Boat... it is the perfect Hawaiian Breakfast! Kiwi, banana, and strawberry slices on a chia and granola bed drizzled with honey and coconut on a sweet papaya halve garnished with mint. The staff is tickle happy and they even waited on us after making our coffees. The is plenty of seating and a confy couch. The feel is very surf shack like space with soothing colors and uncluttered.

Great place to grab a morning coffee and a healthy breakfast! I highly recommend the açaí bowl (served after 10:30am)- it is to die for. To top it off the staff was friendly and welcoming!

First visit and food was delicious but a bit expensive when feeding four people.1. Super charged “bulletproof style” coffee double shot of espresso with coconut oil and cinnamon was awesome but pricey at $6/cup.2. Papaya boat was Amazing-fresh, fresh, fresh. I could have eaten two!3. Kids loved the maple, egg and bacon English muffin and egg and cheese English muffin.4. Freshly made OJ another delicious item.Four people, four drinks, two papaya boats and two sandwiches cost $54. Amazing fresh food for the price. I will go back again!

Best pour over I’ve found so far in Waikiki! The beans are expensive but totally worth it. I recommend the Morning Glory is excellent and slightly sweet.

Very unfriendly service when I visited. Maybe they were just having an off day, but no greeting when I walked in, and stood at the register for several minutes before being acknowledged. Decent pour over coffee and good variety of beans to choose from.

Came here due to the ridiculously long line in Kona Purveyor House and was pleasantly surprised with how good the drip coffee. I tried the Kona Bloom medium roast and it was definitely worth it. It also has a nice non touristy vibe with to it, Im definitely visiting here again.

Review №23

After a week of exploring Wakiki and coffee shops, once or twice every morning, I stumbled across this little gem. The coffee is rich and very well made, the employees are incredibly sweet, and the food was delicious. I really enjoyed sitting here for almost two hours reading my book, chatting with company, and sipping on coffee. I tried the Captain Roys Boat (papaya, tapioca, granola, strawberries, banana, and kiwi), an Americano, a black coffee, and a latte. All were superb. Not to mention the charitable bottle cap drive and reusable messages in this happy shop - this place is perfect if you want sit it and your morning or are in a rush and need quality joe on the go.

Perfectly tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. A delicious, organic coffee shop with a variety of pour over coffees. I had a beautiful papaya bowl, and my husband raves about the everything breakfast bagel.

Review №26

Summary: Decent coffee/food, over-priced even for Waikiki, oddly stingy with lids and utensils.The coffee is nothing special, especially not for the price, this is from a former barista.The food is nice, no complaints here.The weird part which led to a 3 star is that my pour over coffee literally had no lid and was cold by the time my food was ready and when I picked up the food she asked do you need a fork with that?. Uh no I was just planning to eat the papaya bowl with my hand, yes I need a fork you dunce. Based on some stuff I saw on the walls in there, the owners or their daughter seems very interested in eco friendly practices (ok no issues there), but dont skimp out on customers who youre charging $7 for a cup of coffee and $10 for some fruits in a box.

Here for vacation and a friend suggested I check out Coffee Shop 831 for a tasty breakfast. Im glad I followed their suggestion and did.This little shop is conviently tucked away off the main path. Their breakfast menu consisted of paninis, bagels, and other breakfast items. I went for the bagel breakfast sandwich with avacados and a cup of coffee. The ingredients were fresh as I watched them crack an egg for my sandwich.Im not sure when Ill be back in Honolulu, but Ill make sure I come back.

Review №47

Absolutely wonderful. As a tourist, you seldom want to repeat restaurants, however we just had to come here at least 4 times during our stay in Honolulu. The drip coffee alone is enough to get you in the door, as it is so delicious. Definitely try the pour over coffee and you wont be disappointed. There are about 10 different kinds of beans all grown in the islands and each cup is prepared by hand to give you a cup that is so good that adding cream would ruin it. The breakfast sandwiches are also very good, and filling despite looking small at first glance.To top it off, they are very eco-friendly, which is hard to come by in the coffee world. They serve water in these neat copper cups, give you mugs instead of disposable one use cups, and have stainless steel straws for use and purchase. There is also a neat jar where you can recycle bottle caps to be made into wheel chairs. Also make sure to bring your own cup for a slight discount.Friendly people who care about their product and the experience of their costumers make this hidden gem one of the best things we did while in Waikiki.

Review №53

Absolutely amazing coffee shop. Very friendly, and great coffee! I got the Kona Peaberry pour-over and it was the best one Ive had on the island yet. Additionally, they have the best prices for bagged coffee on the island. Almost $20 less than the other big named shops in the area!

Review №54

Pretty good, clean, hip vibe without being hipster. Pretty decent selection, and staff are very nice. Definitely paying the island markup but if youre in the neighborhood for something fresh not fried food this is a great spot. They do have one little table that seats 2, 4 if you ask for extra chairs. Dog friendly! The swing as a miss comes with their Tiramisu which wasnt remotely like tiramisu... it was edible but doesnt remotely resemble the dessert by the same name. Still a nice spot.

Living in Waikiki for a few weeks, and this is one of the best coffee shops here! It can be easily missed from the street so look left when turning on Nahua and walking toward the canal (away from Waikiki beach).Highly recommend the Honey Spice Latte (ginger, cinnamon, turmeric, cloves) or the Super Charge Coffee (bulletproof coffee with coconut oil instead of creamer). They also make some of the best breakfast sandwiches ( 831 sandwich is my fav) and a super tasty papaya bowl (fruit bowl served in a papaya boat).I wish I had found this place sooner, because I would have spent less time at sub-par coffee shops that serve mediocre coffee and breakfast. The atmosphere is great, and they offer outdoor seating as well as working spaces, and a cozy couch.831 is owned by the sweetest lady, and the employees are all amazing. They take great care of everyone who comes in. They are environmentally / ocean friendly, use reusable straws, encourage customers to bring their own mug if taking away, and use local and sustainable products.Im not vegan, but they do offer some vegan options for anyone looking.These are just a few things that make this place rock.

Expensive for what it was.Strange that they don’t service açaí till after 1030- we we’re there a little before but wouldn’t serve us one- they still had the blenders running (which hinder ambience in their dining room a little) so not sure why they wouldn’t oblige. I’m sure they have a reason...

Gotta rate this place down. Looking forward to a local breakfast. Closed for a staff meeting. Why not split the training into 2 shifts and keep the restaraunt open. When I opened the door, a staff member grabbed it out of my hand and closed it.
