Read moreWe have been here for 10 days and we have been eating and drinking at Bad Ass Coffee every day. My huaband loves the bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich. I have tried the breakfast sandwich with pineapple and Spam and it was amazing. I had the Strawberry smoothie and it was great. We tried several of the coffees they have and they are all great. Definitely different but in a great way. Most of all the the people are friendly and a helpful. An all around authentic feel, it makes me want to visit Hawaii. You will not be disappointed, I give it a...
