Island Brew Coffeehouse - Fort Shafter

The sandwich is cold and Orientals are not used to it.

A stylish cafe across the street from Whole Foods. The menu is extensive, and the coffee and acai bowls are delicious. The outside terrace seats look comfortable. This time it was full.

After my annual doctor check up, I'm hungry and need something drink and eat. This place is face to Kamakee st. and next to men's hair salon, same area with Istanbul and Han no daidokoro. I knew this place but when I always saw inside, the shop is full. They have inside and outside table, and luckily I found a seat inside. (But still they were busy! Inside the shop, ceiling is high, fresh greens are on the wall, natural taste, crowded and busy(little noisy but not uncomfortable. I ordered 12oz Hot Latte and Croissant. The staff is very friendly, nice and cute! My latte and croissant saved my life(yes, I was that hungry! They both are good!What I like them is eco friendly, if you have here they use glass cup. Love this place, I'm sure I'll be back again!

The tables here are absolutely disgusting. All you need to do is spray them and wipe them off! Repeatedly people complain about it and you won’t do anything about it. Why? All your tables have grease on them from people leaning on them and getting sun block, sweat or whatever else on them. Here’s how to do it: (1) spray cleaner of your choice, (2) wipe it until dirt is gone, (3) repeat often. If the front of the house is this bad, I can only imagine the cleanliness in the back.

Honestly, this Island Brew is consistently awful. I hadn’t been in over a year and it’s worse than it was before. The two lattes we received were basically just milk, and they were 12oz (so they should be harder to mess up). The person clearly doesn’t know how to pull an espresso. The service was also pretty bad and a bit rude, so I definitely don’t recommend anyone to go here.
