Colorful spot and rarely a wait as it’s slightly off the strip. Folks are friendly. Good music vibe. So ride on in!

Top notch coffee of course. Cant go wrong with the reserve bar. A must visit if youre in Waikiki. There arent many of these so stop in a couple times and treat yourself and the person next to you ;)

Aloha Fam!Yes I went all touristy and hit the reserve up. I have to admit its a different flavor. Loved how they brewed it. This will make me go back.Now you know they gonna do that reserve price. So dont be whining and crying just get you coffee on. Do yourself a favor and just do it!!☆ Pro Tip: taste before you leave and if you need extra anything they will add it for you.#starbucks #coffee #starbuckscoffee #starbuckstumbler #starbuckslover #starbuckskorea #starbucksjapan #starbuckscollection #coffeelover #starbucksteribucks #hawaiifoodie #travelphotography #starbucksthailand #starbuckschina #starbucksindonesia #coffeetime #starbuckscard #starbucksaddict #starbuckscollector #starbucksmug #starbuckstaiwan #starbucksreserve #like #kcfoodie #oahu #follow #instagood #starbuckscup #starbucksph #bhfyp

A great Starbucks Reserve with knowledgeable coffee masters as expected, located on a busy street and near many hotels. Usually not crowded, fast service, displays are eye pleasing. Its a bit smaller than the Starbucks Reserves Ive been to.

Friendly baristas and nice Hawaii themed interior!Nothing out of the ordinary. We stopped by for a quick coffee and souvenir cups. Although they claim it as reserve, we didn’t see any ice cream mixed drinks.I like their Hawaiian themed interior. Most people who visit are tourists so this is a great stop for the Hawaii exclusive souvenirs.There was a lot of people in line, but the baristas were very chill and quick with our orders.Clean. Quick. Meets expectations!

The biggest Starbucks on the island. The service is super fast and the inside is clean. Baristas are kind and making good drinks from hot to cold ones. They have a lot of souvenirs you can get for reasonable prices. It gets busy on the morning so make phone order through the app. 🤙

Still open during the pandemic, no sitting down! Love the ginger spiced cold brew. Friendly staff, just right below Hyatt Centric!

Very rarely you see a Reserce Starbucks! The selection here was exceptional! Try the local brew for sure.

Very clean store. Open late as well which is nice.Great coffee choices due to being a reserve.Friendly staff. Indoor seating only.Had a really nice white coffee mug that is very Hawaiian themed. Just had to grab it.

2255 Kuhio Ave/Kapakalua, Honolulu: Efficient crew; vg Kona coffee; no dine-in yet during my visit on 6/29/21; no wifi; accepts rewards.

Never been to a reserve store before! Super friendly barista‘s, talented and knowledgeable, and overall great service and superior drinks. I work at Starbucks so I definitely know what top quality is. The store was clean and even when they were busy the service was fast and precise. So good! I got the hazelnut iced bianco latte.

Great Starbucks with all of the merchandise you could ask for and drinks are executed perfectly, However, the cashier (Jack) is extremely rude, impatient and leaves a bad first-impression for placing an order. He needs a refresher course on how the company expects employees to treat customers respectfully. As long as you avoid him, all of the other employees are super nice.

We visited this location last time we were here in 2019, impressed with the type of methods you could get your coffee. Enjoyed going back again! If you are a coffee person, go.

Super friendly staff at the WSP location

Neatly decorated great drinks reasonable pricing

Theres nothing like waking up, walking in and ordering 2 mocha frappe and then just cross the street to enjoy your morning coffee while walking Waikiki Beach as we did ... The absolute best coffee on Waikiki Beach in my opinion ...

Nice little spot for Starbucks. Very hard to find parking.

Open early which is great when youre still on PST and havent adjusted. Great atmosphere and appears to be large enough to not feel crowded; I went at 0500 so it was empty :)

This location had a full regular menu, and then the reserve menu which included different small batch coffee, and different preparations. Worth the extra couple bucks, the Clover Kona was smooth and delicious. Baristas were friendly and explained how the different coffees were made. A neat early morning pick me up!

Very crowded all around the day . Big enough to accommodate lots of people. Things go very quick, so better be go in morning time . Opens at 4:30 and high crowed between 7:30-9 AM. It was on main road at Waikiki beach and walking distance to many hotels. Staff is very nice and trying their best to give the fast service in high demand time .

Prices very fair for Waikiki, great cups, awesome service. Honors Starbucks Rewards even Clovers drinks, which is great

Great place to have a cup of coffee. The Reserve Bar is a fantastic way to enjoy a cup of coffee, but its good to have some spare time on your hands. It can get really busy, and the baristas do their best to get drinks out in a timely fashion.

The employees really work hard to fulfill your order. But there are so many people doing mobile orders the ones that come to place an order find it difficult to have their orders fulfilled. The wait is very long ususally.

Great place to get some coffee or quick bites. The place is not large for a Reserve though, so it can get crowded at times. Order ahead through the app to avoid waiting in lines.

Always crowded with a decent line. The 2 workers work fast at getting everything out quickly. Theres no seating as its inside the hotel.

My mom was super excited to go here, but the costumer service needs some work. I worked in a Starbuck and understand how hard it can be, but I think that they could have been less rude and more helpful to my mom. There was no one in the store before us and it wasnt anywhere near closing. I wouldve normally taken all my family here when they visited, but I am hard pressed to recommend it if they are timid or unsure of anything Starbucks.

Friendly and knowledgeable staff. I received a warm welcome each visit and every drink was perfectly made.

I am a Starbucks employee in Canada and this place was so kind and welcoming to me when I mentioned that. Very nice and busy Reserve store. Definitely worth the visit. Lots of fun merch that says Hawaii and Honolulu on it for the tourists like me. Ask about some of the exclusive drinks that only that store serves!

Great store and friendly staff. The coffee was amazing (Kona coffee clover brewed). Centrally located in downtown (well, maybe a block of the beach) and the hours are amazing. I feel slightly bad for the opening crew, but 0430-2130 is super helpful for jet lagged tourists craving a good cup of coffee before exploring the island.

The reserve coffee beans was well worth the wait. Standard Starbucks coffee as well as fancy ones

Wait time is a bit stretched even when theres only 4 people in line but the establishment looked fully staffed. I would blame it on the online orders but that section didnt seem full. I saw at least 5 associates whipping things up and a 6th on the register. BTW Brandon at the register was definitely a friendly face, please keep that associate well paid and happy.

My Ice Macchiota was awesome. Ill be back tomorrow

Great service today! So friendly, professional and calm despite the usual business. Oh and they gave great feedback regarding the drinks. So helpful and willingly so.

Its Starbucks. Its the same as everywhere else. Thats either good or bad, depending on your view of Starbucks. They do have the clover system if thats your bag.

Very nice Starbucks. I have not been to a reserve Starbucks bar outside of Seattle and this one is not nearly as nice but definitely an upgrade from the regular Starbucks. You can get multiple varieties of coffee done in different ways such as pour over. It is a bit on the slow side however but the ambience is tastefully done.

I usually order a Venti Caramel Frappuccino with extra drizzle and 3 shots of expresso. Customer Service here are truly respectable and they listen to make your order correct. Its a nicely clean atmosphere. Just remember, dont rush greatness and you might get your order correct.

This isnt like the Starbucks Reserve in Seattle where they roast beans and package coffee. This location is like your average Starbucks Coffee but nicer and has a bigger coffee bar counter. They offer specialty drinks on a separate menu and have a pineapple infused cold brew; the food options are the same. They have a small selection reserve merchandise and they recently introduced some Honolulu labeled reserve cups and tumblers which are great for gifting.They are located around the corner from Hyatt Centric Waikiki or if youre walking from International Marketplace, they are a few doors down from Dukes Lane Market & Eatery, Nordstrom Rack. If you happen to be in the area, do stop by to check it out.

Loved it! My home Reserve in CA is temporarily closed, so this was a great find! The batistas were super polite and made the drinks exceptionally!

Five stars for the friendly staff & service! We were acknowledged as soon as we got inside!

Quick friendly service. The barrista was willing to make suggestions. This Starbucks has coffee options others do not. Pour over is one of them. No bathroom.

If you thought Starbucks was good, have the Reserve. Holy S%#%! Bomb

Its Starbucks, of course I love it. This one has special flights of coffee served from a tray and in real cups-- fancy!

Very very hot milk was in my latte reserve, very long line and only few people are working. This is not a level of Starbucks Reserve, they need to go down to a regular Starbucks level of the quality. Out of two from three tastes of original reserve.

Nice place. Upscale feel to it. Great cold brew. You get a thick plastic cup with an R on it...bringing it back gives you 10 cents off next beverage.

This reserve bar is great for a Kona pour over and tasty reserve cold brew!

Top notch service and great coffee.

We dont do pour overs when its busyBoth Clover machines broken.This is pretty much as regular Starbucks.

Staff is friendly and welcoming. The store is neat and clean. When asked questions about whats in a drink or what alternatives I could make they were helpful and patient

The kona coffee is great. Good customer service and very attentive.

Amazing strabucks, great experience, totally recommend it if you are around, our hotel was about a 20 minute walk, and we would come here every morning!

Super legit Starbucks. Technically I think they call it Starbucks Reserve due to the vast Reserve offerings and different brewing methods.I traditionally only drink Hawaiian coffee when I am out here for work but the blends, staff, and atmosphere pull me into this location time and time again.

Cute place. Came for the cups and was not disappointed

Great service. Friendly staff. The place is beautiful and by far the nicest Starbucks I have ever visited. I recommend coming here just because just it is nice. The coffee was on point along with my old fashion.

There are only a few reserve coffee bars around the world. You must go! The quality of the coffee is beyond amazing, the decor is beautiful. And if you collect coffee mugs they have limited designs that are also gorgeous. BUY THEIR KONA COFFEE TO TAKE HOME.

Great service even when they were slammed

Cute collections of cups and playing cards. The Nitro Cold Brew Haupia is highly recommended and only available at this store!

Staff are friendlyQuick survive

Plantation cold brew was very good and I like their beans. This place is clean and well organized.

An utter disappointment after being to Starbucks reserve at other cities.

High on potential low on execution.Tons of expensive bean and brewing equipment, with fact bar space devoted to the experience,But 3/4 of the baristas are slanging frapachinos and muffins in the corner of the store that still operates the normal menu while one lazy barista shuffled around all the cool equipment ignoring orders and paying attention to the disinterested girls who are just here to sit at the bar and use their laptops.

I absolutely love the staff here, they are always super friendly. They offer a lot of different options its hard to choose between getting usual or having something new. :)

Gotta do the Kona clover brew

I have never been to a Starbucks reserve, and it was quite a treat. The high class design and decoration made for a beautifully warm environment, and the reserve brew coffees have notes to them that standard Starbucks drinks miss out on, mostly relying on syrup flavors and toppings to define the drink. Definitely worth a stop while you are visiting the area!

Friendly, knowledgeable service and the earliest coffee in Waikiki!

Nice store, fast service!

All the employees are friendly and courteous

Beautiful. Great service

The staff is outstanding and courteous. The store is well kept and keeps itself in line with state guidelines to ensure all customers are safe and well taken care of.

The only place that offers Dark Chocolate Mocha! Worth the trip for sure.

Really nice and spacious, but fair warning: NO ELECTRICAL OUTLETS & NO BATHROOM.

This is such a beautiful location and I love Starbucks Reserve since they have exclusive items and drinks! I love their dark chocolate mocha drink that’s only available here

Granddaughters favorite place.

Came here the other day ordered a salted Carmel Hot drink. Tasted milky so I asked if it could be remade and it still tasted light as heck! Not happy with this location and I hate to ask for a remake because it’s wasteful and I honestly wanted to remake my remake but all in all I just wanted to come in get my coffee and be on my way out that’s all. Don’t see myself coming here as often unless I’m feeling risky and crossing my fingers hoping they do it like the other locations I go to but I dint see it happening. Rather walk to the ones in ala Moana ( 30 minute walk) to get my coffee. Wasted 7$ and my time that day recently. It’s expensive to pay for something you don’t like or want. :/

Coffee is excellent. No seating...

Shop’s design is like Hawaii style🤙🏻

This reserve is not like all others. Coffee was plain and very very milky I ordered the same thing I always do. First gave me iced when I wanted hot, asked you remake it gave me a grande vs tall which made it even more milky. Great coffee mugs tho.

Very unique Starbucks with reserved separate coffee bar!! Totally loved it!

Great Starbucks experience for tourist

My favorite Starbucks, clean store, friendly service. I love the reserve coffee in my fraps and I love the fruit drinks on hot days!

Workers are such an A-hole

It’s a great Starbucks. People that work here are very welcoming and nice. Reserve coffee is good and it’s par with the one I get in NY at Chelsea.

Gorgeous space and standard coffee.

I went this morning to purchase a Starbucks Reserve cup. After standing in line little did I know they let the lady in front of me RESERVE and PURCHASE ALL of there cups that are clearly for resale. I wasn’t able to purchase just 1 cup.

Great friendly staff. My mobile orders are always on time and prepared as ordered.

I like the place but it would be nice to show the location of the nearest restroom from in the store. As I had a hard time locating it.

Never gone to a Starbucks reserve before. They had drinks catered to local coffee beans and taste. Exceptional service and great atmosphere

Very disappointing! No real line to purchase drinks. One has to walk through people to add creamer. Where are the restrooms? Not nearly enough seating.

Their service was slower than average Starbucks shops but maybe they run on Hawaiian time. At least their staff was pleasant. Coffee was good as expected. Not the best Starbucks experience.

Different menu from your run of the mill Starbucks. They had exclusive coffee blends and amazing specialty pastries and cookies! If you have a chance i suggest you stop in and see the diffrences from a regular starbucks for yourself! You wont be disappointed!

Excellent

Great location! Brandon was very friendly and welcoming!

No line. No salad either.

Always a great crew at this Kuhio St location.

The best! The ohana-style service welcomes everyone! And so many specialty coffees and drinks.

I was surprised by the quality and diffrence from the basic store.

The worker knew sign language awesome for dead customer

Excellent staff, but too many tourists buying souvenir cups makes it hard to simply buy a cup of coffee. Waiting times can sometimes be crazy. Employees do their best to move things along .

Nice store but only if you want to grab and go. Employees are nice along with fast service but I think this store is not set-up to hang out in. No outlets, tables are small and very low which make it uncomfortable to use for a computer as youre hunched over. No restroom either. Im almost certain this was designed on purpose to discourage people hanging out.On the positive its a neat store and has some specialty coffee if youre into that.

Fantastic local coffee, quick and open at 430am- great those of us up and early due to jetlag.

Awesome Starbucks Reserve. Drinks were great, cakes and bakeries delicious, good selection of gifts and special coffees. Staff was super-friendly. Mahalo from Germany!
