Visiting the island and during a morning jog I walked into, ARS cafe. NBA legend Michael Jordan wore the number 23 on his... jersey during his career. My espresso and granola bowl wore a number 23 the day I visited. Coinsidence? The universe? Islandenergy? All of the above? Coffee and food made my morning. Read more
Lovely place to get some coffee to beat the summer heat. I appreciated that ARS cafe closes much later than other coffee... shops/cafes. I got an iced coffee during an afternoon walk. I usually am a hot latte person as sometimes the cold temperaturechanges the flavor of the latte, but to my surprise, it was bold in flavor and smooth in texture. It wasn't sour/acidic forward,nor was it bitter. In one of the attached images, there is a card where it describes the flavor profile of the roast used fortheir espresso drinks. I enjoyed the salted dark chocolate notes, and it was mocha-esque and not gritty. I also found that thename "rainbow falls" fits Hawaii. The roasts rotate depending on the season, so that they might have a different roast in acouple of months. After I finished my drink, I had a chat with the barista, Rose. She was well informed about the differentroasts they have, and we chatted about different coffee shops and shared our enjoyment of coffee. I usually try the latte to geta gist of what the shop offers, and she likes to try out a shop's cold brew. I'll be returning to ARS Cafe to try out their hotlatte. Read more
What a gem! Their cortado was proper with the light roast beans. Avocado toast and mango cream cheese scone (fresh baked) were... good addition to round up my breakfast. Read more
