Great coffee if you're looking for something on your way to the Volcano National Park in Hilo. Staff is friendly and they've a variety of snacks/food options too.

We came here after a much needed caffeine stop after exploring volcano National park! I was super indecisive after seeing all the options they had! They were out of a few things but the staff was super friendly and helpful and made delicious recommendations! We ordered the Vietnamese Cold Brew and it was DELICIOUS! We will definitely be stopping by for another one or two...maybe three before we leave!

We really love this place! Although we live in Hilo, we make the trek out to Keaau at least twice a week to get our favorite drinks and sandwiches. Most times we do the drive thru, unless we’re meeting with clients. Depending on the time of day, the drive thru can get busy but it’s always worth it. If you prefer to sit, they offer both indoor and outdoor seating. Great atmosphere and friendly staff.

Favorite coffee place. Punch card is a bonus. We have loved every drink we have ever ordered. Muffins sometimes taste freezer-burned.

I really enjoy this Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf locations. Early in the day I use the drive through for a large coffee. Later in the day I enjoy a large black green tea. Atmosphere is laid back, relaxing and peaceful. Staff is always very friendly and helpful. There are numerous outlets available so charging mobile devices is never a problem. One of the must visit places in Kea’au.
