Hyper local, delicious fudge, friendly service and pretty great, very filling sandwiches. If you're strolling through and want to support local, this is a great place to go. Eat your sandwich while reading the wall of classic local newspaper headlines and stories, grab some fudge for the road, and savor the experience.

Great little coffee place in Honaka'a. We tried the mocha a couple diffrent ways (cold with milk chocolate, cold with white chocolate, and hot with dark chocolate), all were wonderful. I can't really comment on the food cause we didn't have any, but they have sweets like fudge and Carmel For sale,

Nice little cafe! I got an Americano with oat milk for hubby, a latte with oat milk for myself, and fudge sample pack to go... I enjoyed every drop of my latte thank you very much! My family and I enjoyed the fudge samples as well, especially the Lili koi one with macnuts on top. Service was very responsive. I was in and out of there in about 5 min.

Outstanding fudge! So glad we stopped here. Reminds me of my great-granny's fudge. Thanks for the memories.

The kids love to stop for ice cream after school and sit in to color. Very nice owner.

First of all, although Yelp has separate listings, this is the same business as Hamakua Fudge Shop. I stopped in based on the generally enthusiastic reviews about the fudge, both here and on other sites. Though it hadn't been my original plan, I ended up getting lunch here, since most other nearby restaurants were closed. This involved a bit of a wait, as when I first arrived the high school kid at the counter said he couldn't make sandwiches, but the owner would likely be in soon -- though he also said she was inconsistent and he couldn't say for sure when. Happily, she was there when I stopped back half an hour later, having confirmed that the only other available lunch options were a food truck whose fare didn't much fit my mood or takeout from the local market. I ordered a turkey sandwich on whole wheat and iced coffee. The coffee was good. The sandwich was barely okay. It was billed as coming with cranberry mayonnaise, and while the mayo had a bit of sweetness, cranberry flavor was not readily apparent. The turkey was weirdly dry and crumbly and the bread was beginning to get stale. All it all it was edible, but that's about it. It came with a small banana, which was a nicer and healthier touch than the chips or pickles you so often get with sandwiches. As I sat there eating, I noticed a sign on the bulletin board, apparently left over from the days when Hawaii had a COVID-19 mask mandate for indoor establishments. The sign used fake language from HIPAA (misspelled as HIPPA -- a dead giveaway) to say, essentially, that they'd just pretend anyone not wearing a mask had a medical reason to not wear one and ignore the public health rule. Why they felt compelled to announce they don't give a bleep about public health a year after any such mandates ended I can't say, but I'm suffering debilitating "Long COVID" symptoms because of the recklessness of idiots like this. So I didn't buy any fudge, tempting as it looked, and instead satisfied my sweet tooth at another business.

The atmosphere here is SO cute and cheerful. Fantastic ice cream. Nice corners to sit down in if you’re looking for a rest.

We wanted to buy coffee to go. The owner told us to go to a gas station. That was a bit rude. No Aloha here.

Opening hours on google maps are unfortunately wrong. Were there at 10 am today (Tuesday) and the cafe was closed. Ended up at Tex Mex for some coffee, which was also ok, but I would have loved to try this cafe after reading the reviews.Still leaving 5* for you and hope you will adjust your opening hours for the guests to come :)))

Pretty good ice cream. Great midday pit stop. Service a tiny bit surly but almost in a good way. The shop inside is a bit too crowded to fit many people and feels cluttered. But Quick and easy

Best coffee fudge ice cream. Nini makes great vegetable sandwiches. And only place in town I will buy hot or iced coffee for pleasure since I've had my wake up coffee.
