Let’s not forget, Starbucks flopped in my home country. Hawaii’s coffee game is strong. It offers mineral-rich volcanic soil and an ideal climate for growing coffee plants.

Holiday-makers, on the other hand, tend to seek out espresso-based beverages. But don’t worry, I know where to find the best non-drip coffee in Waikiki.
