Pour-Over Coffee in Honolulu
These four Honolulu locations have official support for pour-over service. Start with Drip Studio downtown, Bean About Town in Kaimuki or Waikiki, or Honolulu Coffee at the Moana Surfrider.
The order is a planning guide, not a tasting score. Ask which beans and brew methods are available before ordering. Menus can vary by branch and day; a coffee sold in a retail bag is not always on the café menu.

Common questions
Things people ask
Where can I order a single-origin pour-over downtown?
Drip Studio HNL at 1114 Fort Street Mall explicitly offers made-to-order single-origin pour-over. Its posted hours are Monday–Friday 7 AM–2 PM, and weekends and holidays 8 AM–1 PM.
Which Bean About Town branch should I visit?
The Kaimuki branch is at 3538 Waialae Ave, suite 101. The Waikiki branch is at 330 Royal Hawaiian Ave. The brand offers pour-over, but products can vary by location, so ask about the current menu.
Is the Moana Surfrider café open in the evening?
Honolulu Coffee posts daily hours of 5:30 AM–8 PM at 2365 Kalakaua Ave. Ask staff whether pour-over service is available near closing time.
Can I choose V60, Kalita, or Chemex?
Do not assume that a café uses a particular brewer. Ask staff which method they offer that day and which beans suit the cup you want.
Will every pour-over use Hawaiian-grown beans?
No. Check the listed origin of the coffee you order. A Hawaiian café can serve both Hawaiian and international coffees.
Why is TRY Coffee no longer on this visit list?
Its Ward Centre location closed during the centre's closure in 2026. A replacement café address was not confirmed in this check. The brand's online subscription service is separate from an in-person café visit.
