About
Nestled in the heart of Downtown, Chinatown, Drip Studio HNL is a welcoming haven for coffee lovers, envisioned by founders Kelsie and Vince from their shared passion for specialty coffee and adventure. More than just a coffee shop, it's a 'studio' dedicated to creation, community, and the art of coffee. Their mission is to make specialty coffee accessible, offering a space for both seasoned enthusiasts and curious newcomers to explore and learn about single-origin beans sourced from around the globe. Drip Studio HNL shines with its multi-roaster approach and specializes in meticulous manual pourover brewing—you can even experience an omakase-style tasting at their dedicated pourover bar. Beyond expertly crafted coffees, such as their signature Cold Fashioned, they offer delightful housemade food. Look for fresh, wholesome options like Avocado Toast featuring local sourdough and Kupono Acres microgreens, or their popular gluten-free Mochi Waffles, all prepared with a focus on quality ingredients. Visitors will appreciate Drip Studio's palpable dedication to hospitality and coffee education, creating a cozy, modern space where guests are welcomed like family. While their specialty coffee selection celebrates global origins, their connection to the local community is thoughtfully expressed through their food menu, which incorporates fresh, local Hawaiian ingredients. It’s a genuine spot to unwind, connect, and deepen your appreciation for the craft of specialty coffee in Honolulu.
