Imua Coffee Roasters

Lovely spot of refuge in tourist paradise. Plant based paradise! ❤️❤️❤️ lovely space to sit outside. Great variety of plant based breakfasts, multiple non dairy milks alternatives. Friendly staff!

The staff at this establishment were warm and attentive, which made my experience enjoyable. Honestly I was very hesitant to post because the owners seem to be somewhat defensive and dismissive. Unfortunately, the online photos did not accurately represent the food portion sizes or quality; for instance, the avocado toast was smaller than expected, and the Dave sandwich was half the size advertised. On a positive note, the hibiscus lemonade and monkey toast were standout items that I truly enjoyed; while I appreciate the vegan offerings, I believe there is room for improvement in the presentation and portioning of the dishes.

We stayed next door and really enjoyed this coffee shop that was walkable for us! The macadamia nut latte was my favorite in Kauai and their house blend oat / soy milk is genuinely really good. They were even able to make it less sweet for me. The only downside is that it’s a bit pricey - we paid almost $20-$25 with tip for two drinks and I feel like that’s a lot for coffee. But we enjoyed supporting because it’s a locally owned business! Overall, this is a great spot and would definitely come back next time we’re in town!

Everything was delicious- from the malasadas to the lattes. Even my whole-milk-only partner loved his Kokoholemoka. It’s refreshing to have a local, plant-based shop where I can have anything on the menu (I have a dairy allergy, so this usually is NOT my experience with other shops). SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT. As a small, local business- with only one person making drinks + food, the staff (one person) did great! He stayed in constant communication with everyone— even as people impatiently approached the counter from all sides, he maintained a great, friendly attitude and ensured no one was ignored. Overall- great experience and we will be back. I highly recommend this shop for everyone, but please, remain patient and be mindful during high volumes of business- you will not be disappointed (:

Great Vegan coffee shop on Kauai! Excellent coffee as they roast their own. Also some unique food choices such as carrot lox and cream cheese on a bagel all vegan! Be sure to check it out.

Imua Coffee Roasters is an absolute gem and a must stop if you’re vegan or just love great food and coffee. Everything here is 100% vegan, which instantly made it one of our favorite places on the island. The breakfast sandwiches are amazing, the donuts are so good you’ll want more than one, and the coffee options are excellent across the board. Everything tastes thoughtful, fresh, and made with real care. What really sets this place apart though is the owner. He is incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely accommodating, creating such a warm and friendly vibe that makes you want to linger and come back again and again. Amazing food, great coffee, and an all vegan menu done right. Places like this are special, and Imua is absolutely one of them. 🌱☕🍩

A little hidden gem for early risers. If you love plant based milk, this place is perfect. I usually love my almond or soy latte, to add a bit mac nut flavor makes it so yummy. The crew is also very friendly.

Cute spot! Macadamia nut Latte was solid. Maybe I came on an off day as they only had 2 food options available but the avocado toast was disappointing, already brown on half of it & definitely not worth $12. Tried to buy beans to take home, but was told they won’t have beans until next week. Ladies working nicely offered shipping but when there is plenty of other fresh beans on the island that’s not a great choice.

One of our favorites in Kapa’a! The flavor of the coffee is amazing, love that they are a plant based coffee shop. Even if you aren’t vegan…try it. All their food and drinks are delicious. Golden milk is my favorite and my husband likes their lattes and the favorite drink. They also serve yummy banana bread. You can also get things like avocado toast and yogurt and grandpa bowls. It’s right next to Islander on the Beach and the Coconut Marketplace.

There’s a table at the back of the shop — it’s really cozy and quiet, which I love. It seems like they recently updated the interior a bit and added some new food items to the menu. One thing to note: they don’t offer whole milk. It’s great for vegetarians, but I personally prefer my latte with whole milk, so that was a little disappointing. The coffee tastes fresh and unique, and they sell their house-roasted beans, so if you like the flavor, I recommend picking some up. Also, not many coffee shops are open on Mondays, but this one is. Good to know!
