This is the place for world-class pastries—specifically the Black Sesame Kouign Amann—paired with smooth Kona coffee. It's a high-energy, high-volume spot where the payoff is a James Beard-level pastry and a quality cup, provided you're okay with a line that often stretches out the door. If you're looking for a quiet, slow-paced morning or a place to linger over a book, this isn't the fit for you today; head to a neighborhood spot instead.
James Beard-level pastries like Black Sesame Kouign Amann are high-value photo targets for tourists.
Roaster location with reviews mentioning buying '3 bags of Kona coffee' to take home.
People 'drove tens of miles' and wait 40-60 minutes specifically for the b. patisserie collaboration.
Offers 100% Kona drip, Peaberry, and staff who explain different bean tastings.
If you want to make a good cup of coffee, make friends with the farmer. Trade stories, share meals. You’ll know which plants are doing well, you’ll see them yourself. Three thousand feet above the North Pacific on a third generation coffee farm in Kona, Hawaii, where the views alone are worth the forty minute flight from Oahu. If you want to make the best cup of coffee - do all of these things. And aim to do more. This has worked well for Kona Coffee Purveyors’ Raymond Suiter.
