Gordon Morse, the owner, is a VERY smart old man, a volcanologist. He can tell you stooooories... mention you're a friend of one of Rick Hazlett's students from Pomona College and ask him about the volcanoes.
Plus, their breakfast RULES!!
As for other places to visit.. I recommend visiting the south side of the island, particularly, if you can find it, the green sand beach at the south south end. It's beautiful, with a great view.
Here's some stuff from my volcanology trip to hawaii, which may give you ideas...
big island!
