It's definitely a good cuppa fancy joe. Well blended and balanced flavors. There are plenty of selections and fairly quick service. Coffee isn't over roasted, so it has a smooth after taste. Now it's cramped and warm. You get 10 people in line, and it gets intimate.. LOL

Have to admit this coffee has become my new favorite coffee. I have been working on the island for years and never stopped to try. Coworker talked me into trying the Cinnamon Roll Latte. Must admit it's probably the best latte I've ever had from a coffee shop. Would highly recommend. And I have went several times last year and this year so far. Definitely where you should go for your coffee needs.

The outside art of the cafe caught our eyes as we walked past it, therefore, we wanted to try it out! Their menu has many options, ranging from cold brews, signature lattes, classic coffees, and blended drinks. The ladies who works here are very kind, friendly, and helpful. I ordered the beach bum, which is a mix of lavender and white mocha, with lavender flavored cold foam. It is such a great mix, especially for those with a sweet tooth! My friend ordered the beach comber, which is coffee with sweet condensed milk, with chocolate cold foam. It tastes like a hot chocolate. We definitely enjoy it here and will come back when we visit :)

Enjoyed the first day at Kure Beach with some cold coffee drinks from Happy Hippies. Very friendly staff. Everyone was smiling and in a good mood. Will most likely be back there in the morning for some more! Highly recommend giving them a try. Easy to find right by the Kure Beach Pier!

Not only is this the best coffee you will ever have, the baristas clearly love their jobs and love meeting the customers. They just want you to enjoy your day at the beach and your coffee. They have more than coffee if you’re not a coffee nut. Their special seaside lemonade is SO good. They also have tea and are hoping to make smoothies again soon. Some amazing items made by the locals and CBD/Delta 8 products for the full Hippie experience. Oh and they’re you know steps away from the beach and pier!!! It’s the dream destination. Also bring your pets!! They LOVE animals and posting the ones that come in. A smile is guaranteed at Happy Hippies
