“ Surprisingly they have great coffee too! The smoothie bowl is super delicious, I’ve had the kale one with morniga, added honey and almond butter. Really recommend this place and this plaza has a lot of options for food and small shops! ”
“ Wonderful little spot! The staff here are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The cafe is cozy and beautifully designed, with a charming garden terrace that has a few outdoor tables — perfect for a relaxing meal. The menu is diverse, and the prices are very reasonable. I had the veggie sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious. Both the woman at the counter and in the kitchen were warm and kind — their hospitality made the experience even better. This place left a really positive impression, and I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended! ”
“ If Hawaiian Style Cafe across the way wasn’t so busy, we should have never tried this place. But I’m sure glad we did. The beet hummus toast is absolutely #brokedamout and the fresh green juice was the perfect beverage to wash it all down. Healthy eating in Hilo tastes so good here. ... ”
“ Great smoothies! Yummy gluten free and vegan treats - the Nutter BetterTM was my fave! Really personable and kind staff. Certified Repeat Customer! ”
“ They have a nice, shaded seating area and are a good spot for some healthier and optional vegan fare. The vegan burrito was tasty :) My omnivore friend had the steak burrito and liked that too. ”
“ This place is now called Ha Cafe rather than liquid life. We had a chance to meet and speak with the owner, who by the way is super nice, and she explained that the name change helps to encompass better who they are and what they do. Their line of health foods and supplements were very cool. I love that she includes and highlights indigenous ingredients into her products. Definitely worth checking out. Pretty awesome place! ”
“ An absolute gem. I ordered the acai island and pesto panini with turkey. Smoothie is so tasty it’s solid like home made but with more delicacy. Panini is very good too, fresh off the grill. The chips are perfectly crunchy. Everything goes so well together. ”
“ We had the cold press Orange Oasis and the Garden Greens. They were both amazingly fresh and refreshing..... A definite must try!!! ”
