Reviews
We have supported Kalapawai Market for nearly 30 years—our children even worked there alongside the original owner’s son when they were teenagers and attended the same school.
Last week, we sent a friend to purchase flowers for someone celebrating her birthday, and the tropical bouquet received was clearly in poor condition and not suitable as a gift. I took dated photos when I saw them.
When I returned to the store (a week later) and showed the manager the stamped photos, she said she thought the flowers looked good and that any issue was simply a matter of opinion. She also explained that this is not a flower shop but a general store and therefore offered no acknowledgment, replacement, or solution. The interaction felt rushed and unwelcoming, dismissive and embarrassing.
I was hoping for basic recognition and customer care, especially as a long-time supporter of this local business.
great service.
good quality
great options, poke bowl, sandwiches, breakfast, pizzas and more
What’s wrong: coffee is pre-ground. The barista doesn’t clean portafilter in between orders.
Why this is bad: pre-ground coffee degrades quickly due to oxygen exposure if not used immediately. When you don’t clean a portafilter in between uses, you recooked coffee grind which gives the coffee a burnt taste.
How to fix this: if you want to keep the current grinder for large pots of drip coffee, which you obviously sell a lot of, great, but get a separate grinder for espresso based drinks. The grinder is more important than the quality of coffee bean. Portafilter, just clean it.
Bottom line, we love this spot and with very minor procedural corrections you can have world class coffee that will draw not only regulars, but more consistent visitors.
