The Cardinal Herbs Teas And Spices

What a lovely spot to have healthy drinks and food. Wi-Fi to get some work done. Wonder turmeric latte and sourdough toast.

Wow, what a hidden gem! I'm glad I listened to my intuition and stopped at this little place on the way to Hilo. Such an amazing selection of drinks, herbs and tasty treats! Everything is plant based. We had a matcha latte and a cherry vanilla macadamia cupcake made by the very nice lady that served us. Everything was delicious and healthy. Wish we could have a place like this back at home!

Great atmosphere, amazing food and coffee varieties, it’s good for kids it offers toys and coloring books.

I wanted to love this place. Everything was so intentional. The presentation of our drinks, the layout of the café, the games available to play while you're sitting there. But ultimately my review goes back to our drinks. I should probably have done more research before stopping here. It's fully plant-based, so my husband and I aren't exactly the target audience (ie. we would prefer a dairy product in our coffee). I had an iced latte and my husband had a mocha. Both drinks tasted incredibly watered down...as if the coffee was hardly there. My latte tasted mostly like sweetened soy milk. For the prices and the atmosphere, we had high hopes for our coffee...but the flavors truly fell flat. Lovely batista and cafe location, but can't say I'd recommend.
