This is the life. While in Kona – Hawaii’s coffee capital – start your day overlooking the shimmering blue Pacific while sipping your morning brew.
Daylight Mind Coffee Company is known for kalua pig waffles, topped with toasted local macadamia nuts, served with sweet and juicy Maui pineapple and a killer Kona coffee BBQ sauce on the side; baked French toast stuffed with lilikoi jam, cream cheese, and whipped cream; or a papaya boat with local granola, fresh berries, and crème fraîche, just to name a few.
This restaurant/bakery/coffee house is headed by Shawn Steiman, who knows practically everything about coffee. Coffee aficionados and the curious can also explore the roastery and coffee school.
