Yelp Breakfast Club badge unlocked! According to Google, you need to check into a breakfast business before 11 am with 3 to 5 Yelp friends at the same time. We checked in before 9:00 am; four Yelp friends helped me out. Aiea Pancake House was formerly called Koa Pancake House, and it pretty much serves the same food. I have been dining there since before the name change. Good portion sizes, local favorites, at an affordable price. You order at the front, and they call out your number. There are several tables inside, and it's nicely air-conditioned. There are also tables outside. That day I ordered the Strawberry Waffles. It was topped with strawberries and whipped cream. It was a Belgian waffle, fluffy on the inside and nicely crisp on the outside. I also ordered a side of Portuguese sausage and pineapple juice. Everything was great! The staff was nice. They checked on us and thanked us for our business. Free parking! There are so many great businesses at Aiea Shopping Center, so it can get pretty busy during peak hours. At least there are three parking levels. Thank you, Auntie Nadine, for getting everyone together, and mahalo to fellow Yelp Elite friends for the help: Auntie Nadine C., Irene C., Debroah P., and Gabriel P. read more

The Breakfast Club... It's always fun meeting up with Yelp friends and today was no different as visiting local Kim needed her Breakfast Club badge is enough of a reason to have some yummy breakfast. Located on the second floor of Aiea Shopping Center right beside McDonald's there are two entrances and do like this casual type of dining as you place your order and pay first to then seat yourself and they bring out your order. I decided on their namesake of Aiea Omelette and why not it's filled with Spinach, Mushrooms, Portuguese Sausage and Cheese...yum! My side is potatoes of course as they're a nice rustic chunky cut cooked up perfectly and as most of the condiments are at each table no need to ask for them in advance was nice as well. During these busy days it was really nice to stop and take the time to have some breakfast with friends and this breakfast club group is amazingly generous with their time and thoughtfulness...Nadine, Deborah, Gabriel and Kim ;) cool group. Thank you! read more

Was invited to a breakfast so fellow Yelper Kim C could get her breakfast badge. First off ,Aiea Pancake House took over from Koa Pancake House. The interior hasn't changed. Upon entering we were greeted the friendly staff. Like the Koa Pancake House you order at the counter and they bring the food your table. I ordered a waffle and the pork sausage breakfast. Overall my breakfast was fine. Enjoy read more

Breakfast in Aiea, O'ahu, Hawai'i... We got together to help Kim get her Yelp Breakfast Club Badge. It's challenging because we need to all be Yelp friends and at least four of us have to check in together before 9am at a Breakfast Restaurant. We chose Aiea Pancake House because it's located between all of us - and on the second level of the Aiea Shopping Center (same level as McDonald's). Its former name was Koa Pancake House. It has free, shared parking, friendly staff, and clean interior! We all ordered and paid at the counter, took a seat, and our meals were brought to us! Thank you! Water was self-service from a dispenser. I got the Spinach Mushroom Cheese omelet with wheat toast. It was simple and delicious! The main goal was achieved: Kim obtained her badge and we all had a wonderful time together! Thank you, Deborah, Gabriel, and Irene for your help! read more

Got invited to breakfast for a friend's breakfast badge. Yay for yelper Kim C to get it. Met other yelpers Irene, Nadine. Of course thanks to Nadine to coordinate it. This place changed their name from Koa pancake house to Aiea pancake house. I ordered grill cheese sandwich. My husband had a waffle, link sausage with eggs to share Nadine had spinach mushroom omelet Irene had the Aiea omelet and Kim waffle with strawberry and whip cream. The place wasnt crowded yet and they didn't push us out after we ate. Got to talk stories for awhile. Still order at the counter and they bring the food to the table. read more

My friend took me for breakfast. I had Corned Beef Loco Moco, she got 2 plates. I know one was the waffles that she was so excited for. All very good and the portions are pretty big. Prices were decent, the place is clean. We'd go back. read more

Stopped by this morning and still enjoyed their food!! Service was friendly and efficient. Prices are reasonable as well. Pancakes were extra good today. read more

Love this place. The food is great! And so is the fried rice. The service is awesome, dine in or take out, these ladies are always smiling. Mahalo- for your great service. I eat here at least 2X a week read more

The corned beef loco moco with extra gravy was exceptionally satisfying, rich, and full of flavor. Their pancakes were equally impressive--light, fluffy, chewy and among the best I've had. read more

Had breakfast here with a friend. This place used to be known as Koa Pancake House in the top level of the Aiea Shopping Center. It wasn't crowded when we arrived but the small place started filling up fast. You order at the back by the register. We both had the EGG's and THINGS. Mine was with Vinha d'alhos. Taste was okay - not a mouth watering flavor. Not sure if there were two eggs or just one. But it wasn't over-easy like I asked for. Friend had Portuguese sausage with fried rice. We both enjoyed our meals. Wide selection of breakfast and lunch items. Prices are reasonable and good portion. Woman taking my order at the register was patient and polite. read more

12-24-24 a Christmas eve breakfadt, thanks Doc for treating dad and I. We came here cuz the line at AM was out the door and hubs had a 9 am pt appointment across the street. Few tables were occupied at 8 am but by 8:30 am the line to order was getting long. Food came out quickly but the hamburger and bangers were on the grill a bit too long- little bit charred. read more

Food was good. Ordered the aiea moco eggs scrambled and gravy on the side. A short stack banana pancakes that were so delicious! Service was quick, lady server was nice and brought the food to our table. Great service! Inside is small and can get crowded and may have to wait for seating, but not today. read more

Aiea Pancake House - Steak medium well, eggs over easy with fried rice - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Food was OK, over easy eggs were broken and had an old oil smell. Parking lot congested, and hard to maneuver or find parking. The Koa Pancake House in Kapolei (Ka Makana Alii) explained why this is called AIEA Pancake House - they are all different owners "so everybody makes their own menu and taste." read more

Located at the Aiea shopping center, second floor, The local breakfast, pancakes and lunch plates are cheap, but they were too oily and basic. Nothing really stood out for me. The servings were average, and didn't make us satisfied because it was a little overcooked and a little chewy. Limited seats, and a line forms in the middle of the booth. No wipes to wipe the tables, and garbage can is on the right of the counter where we ordered. Employees were nice and accomodating, but we had to wait a while for our food. Overall this place is ok, but I don't think I'll frequent here. Lots of parking since it is at the aiea shopping center. read more

This is a small place with friendly service. We are tourists and were on our way from Waikiki to the Dole Plantation but needed a place to stop and eat. I just picked what happened to be closest to us. The place is up an escalator, there's no restroom inside but they'll give you a key to the one in the shopping center. You order at the front and they'll bring the food to you. Prices are decent. $15 omelet, $12.50 for eggs, 5 turkey links, and 3 fluffy pancakes. Worth it. The pancakes are excellent!! I was traveling with some picky eaters and we were all impressed. Good strong coffee as well. Would definitely return. read more

Love their burrito, took it to go and I was pleasantly surprised they sliced it AND packaged two dippings, sour cream and salsa. The price point is just right and the portioning is always enough for me. Very happy and will probably try their other burritos. They were busy but the service was quick! read more

Plastic forks and knife. No half & half. Ham is sliced sandwich ham. Counter service only. Only cheddar cheese for the omelette.

Not sure how to get Yelp to change this restaurant to AIEA PANCAKE HOUSE. Everything looks the same except "Koa" has been replaced with "Aiea" on the signs in the windows and inside. Menu looks the same, too. We went on a Sunday morning around 10:30. We seemed to have come in between the early morning diners and the lunch crowd. When we were walking in, several diners were leaving. As we ate our food, a line of new diners came in. Some were getting take out. What I like - they still serve Scottish Bangers! I only know of one other pancake place that does. The food was arranged very nicely on our plates. Nicer than before, I liked that tiny improvement. Quality of the food and the service was still the same. Door was open and it was a little warm. I guess the AC wasn't working well. But we were ok - a little warm is not the same as hot. We enjoyed our meal and of course will be back. read more

If you are looking for a good and affordable breakfast spot near the Honolulu airport, this is an option to check out. Simple, yet pleasant. You can find a variety of breakfast items, and they offer specials too (I got the special #1 omelet - see pic). It took a little while to get our food, but not bad. The omelet I got was prepared well and was good. If you need to use the restroom, ask for the key and it is a short walk past some of the stores. My wife said the pancakes were good. My son who is super picky enjoyed the corned beef hash. I think the name of this place has changed. It is now called Aiea Pancake House. read more

New menu item, aiea Loco moco. Fried rice, corn beef Hash, hamburger, 2 eggs and gravy. Was closed for a while, don't know why, but air conditioning wasn't working, that made the place on the warm side. Had to forgo the coffee and made iced coffee. Food was brought out individually. So some were done before I got my food. Good thing coffee was refillable. Kept making more ice coffee. I think coconut syrup must be requested. Couldn't find it but saw it on another table as we left. The coconut syrup was one of the reasons we went there. read more

We went on Mother's Day. It was exceptionally busy. We gave it a chance. Waited over an hour for our food and only the pancakes came out. It wasn't even hot, more like warm to the touch. Another customer asked where their order was, employee told them "it's only been 20 minutes and just wait. Ever since the name changed, service and quality went down hill. Their excuse for my order taking too long was that they lost my order. I'm told them dine in, but they put it in take out container. Our order came out after I got refunded and was walking out. read more

2nd time in a week returning here. I got the Aiea omelette (Spinach,mushroom, cheese, & Portuguese sausage) with potatoes. Which are over an inch in diameter. I'm use to seeing tiny ones. Also the strawberry and whip cream waffle. I prefer to eat my food ASAP so please excuse the pic but I was finished by the time I decided to make this review. Service was great too. Checked multiple times if I was ok and even brought my take out order to me. Definitely recommend coming here. read more

I personally think eating breakfast and I enjoy eating at Koa's it's good tasting at a family affordable price the service is minimal but you'll enjoy the meal read more

So glad they finally reopened after the fire! This is my Sunday go to breakfast every week. I usually get the loco moco, pancakes w/ bacon and eggs, the fried rice, or the trio plate with eggs, bacon, sausage, and fried potatoes. You get what you paid for & it's more then enough! I'm always stuck w/ left overs.. Service is quick and the employees are nice. I've always phone ordered & the girls that answer are very polite & professional. Honestly you can't go wrong w/ anything here. The only down fall would honestly have to be the parking. The parking lot does get crowded especially because they have so many other businesses on the property. Highly recommend!! read more

Aiea Pancake House - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

So funny, was totally confused about the name but it's Aiea Pancake House. Not sure if different owner and wanted to be special. It it's your typical local joint serving local kine faves. Stumbled on this spot since we were in the area looking for a dine in breakfast. First red flag was seeing the open doors, only because I don't like being hot. Be warned, there is no ac or fans. So you may want to get take out or skip them altogether if it's not a breezy day and it's hot. We almost left because it was already slightly muggy outside and pretty warm inside but there wasn't too many people seated. However as we were about to leave the space filled up and it got significantly warmer. There's also couple of tables outside to sit if you prefer. Auntys inside were really nice and the food came out really fast. Everything was tasty. Nothing over the moon but it hit the spot. A little pricey but at the same time common inflated prices. Oh also to note I love that Koa pancake house would squeeze the oranges fresh for sweet juice and you could watch them do it but this one tasted like store bought Minute Maid with that twang I don't care for. I was disappointed watching her pour the juice out of a plastic container. read more

Food was excellent and tasty! The service was also great and they don't skip out on the chocolate chips!

Breakfast tastes good in Hawaii. It just does. Spam, portuguese sausage, eggs, pancakes, fried rice, white rice...you can even get a Local deluxe bkfast from McDs with spam and Portuguese sausage. But go to this tiny bkfast spot in the busy Aiea shopping ctr if you just want a good home cooked breakfast. Pancakes are just perfect, sausage, scrambled eggs and potatoes like I make at home because the line is always too long at IHOP. Its aiea, so parking is tight and traffic can get hairy so try parking at the bottom level of this 3 level center then walk up a floor. read more

Pancakes for days and loco moco is on point. Only thing that's to mention is McDonald's drive thru holds up parking lot here.

Great service, great price, great food options, inside seating with vaccination card verification and open on holidays was a plus! Inside seating was great for our party of 6. Definitely will revisit! read more

A good spot to pick up breakfast food - the steak was so-so (dry and a bit underwhelming) but the waffles and bacon were on-point and delicious. They often had a line when we stopped in and they serve breakfast all day. And water you can get right by yourself - nice and simple. Syrup at the counter or tables, and you can always ask for more. Reminds me of a more limited version of a diner. And not too expensive - a waffle was $4. read more

No fresh fruit. Paper plates and plastic forks. Only powdered cream. No air conditioning. Won't be going back.

Open now. Great food as always. Recommend the blueberry pancakes or whatever is your favorite. Stopped by yesterday. Same great service. read more

The food was very delicious and the service was excellent. Placed a phone order and when I got there in 10 minutes it was ready to go. All the condiments were nicely wrap so there is no syrup leaking in the package. read more
