Hitides Coffee

Growing up in Michigan, Johnny Dawbarn dreamed of ditching the cold and catching some waves. He was mesmerized by Hawaiian culture and the laid back vibes of the islands. After leaving his career at Hallmark after more than 20 years, Johnny knew his next step was to somehow incorporate his love of Hawaii. 

Hitides opened two years ago in the midst of the pandemic. Johnny attributes his success to offering a gateway for people looking to take a breather from everyday life. Walking into Hitides feels like stepping into a resort on the islands. Many of the artifacts used to decorate the space are from either Johnny's trips to Hawaii or thrift stores. 

Hitides is dedicated to giving back to the community. They partner with Donutology and Meshuggah Bagels as well as Hawaiian brands to bring customers the highest quality ingredients. Hitides encourages customers to slow down and enjoy the ride.
