    The waffles were amazing! So fluffy and delicious! Great outdoor seating right in front of the food truck! Service was quick and so friendly. Definitely a must stop for breakfast.

    BEST WAFFLES I EVER HAD! It was just so good. I never had waffles like this before. I CRAVE IT, but I don't live in Lihue so :'( Just try it! I got the Weremonkey one. When I returned home I tried to recreate it haha

    BOB best of both consisting of 1/2 Leprechauns (left with strawberries ) and 1/2 Weremonkey (right with bananas )

    It is a food truck, located in a small corner shared with 3 other trucks. It has a handful of outdoor table with benches all covered under a tent. The owner is super friendly. He hand delivered orders to his customers. Ordered the Liege Waffles and drinks - sunrise latte, cafe mocha, and half sweet OHT (on Hawai'i time).

    The waffles were amazing an awesome place to eat. The wait was worth it (15 minutes).

    AMAZING food at Aloha Liege! I got a sunrise latte and Weremonkey waffles. Weremonkey waffles were very sweet, but still extremely enjoyable. Latte had strong espresso while still having a subtle sweetness, perfect in my eyes. Service was good, warned beforehand for a longer wait so nothing was to be unexpected. Friendly workers. Pretty location that is conveniently located right off of Rice Street. Great experience, one of the best breakfast spots in Lihue.

    Almond Joy Mocha- THE BEST!!

    I'm not joking when I say this is the best waffle I've ever had. It's a liege style waffle (sugar crystals baked in) with a subtle cinnamon flavor. I chose the Leprechaun which has fresh strawberries, bananas, whipped cream & chocolate drizzle. So delicious! I also ordered the iced Almond Joy Mocha, super tasty too. I highly suggest coming here whether you're local or visiting on vacation.

    Fabulous little truck serving different kinds of waffles and a variety of coffee drinks. Waffles were delicious and drinks were so good! Service was excellent! Highly recommend. They have a sitting area as well that is clean and has plenty of seating. Only downside is the chickens and roosters that live in this area are more savage than usual and will try and peck at your plate lol.

    Waffles and coffee are a perfect pair! We visited this waffle truck several times during our stay at the Royal Sonesta Resort across the street. With limited and overpriced breakfast options at the resort, finding this gem was a total lifesaver. They offer a great variety of waffles, coffees, and even fruit bowls, making it the ideal morning treat. My kids and I loved the Leprechaun waffle with fresh bananas and strawberries. Highly recommend to visit this waffle truck!

    Half Weremonkey half leprechaun

    Soooo yummy. Every bite I kept saying wow. We got the "best of both worlds" half weremonkey and half leprechaun. So good

    We had been eyeing coming to this place all vacation long & finally stopped here our final morning on Wednesday the 3rd. It's a cool little food truck right behind the beach & Royal Sonesta hotel. This super cool couple are the owners and operators of the food truck. They've got the perfect amount of choices for coffee & waffles. We tried the weremonkey waffles, and 2 coffees, OHT iced latte & the Sun Rise latte too. This place is a must if you're coffee lovers.

    A waffle food truck just a stone's throw from the resort? Sign me up. We indulged in the waffles one morning with zero regrets. Mine was the weremonkey, a surprising delight with bananas and the Biscoff drizzle to top it off. It paired perfectly with plain iced coffee. You can order the waffles to go or enjoy your feast at one of the many tables available in the food truck space.

    This waffle truck is located across the street from the Marriott resort. There are covered tables, which is helpful when it rains (which it was when we went). There are many chickens and roosters around, but they're just entertainment, unless you feed them. Liege waffles are sweeter and denser than your usual Belgian waffle. It makes for a caramelized crust--crispy on the outside, soft (but dense) on the inside. HIGHLY recommend sharing (which we didn't and my tummy is FULL). I got the Mac Daddy, which had Mac nuts, bananas and homemade whipped cream. There was vanilla syrup on it too. It seemed like the least sweet option and I'm not a sweet lover (take this with a grain of salt). It was very sweet, IMO. But it was delicious! I loved the different textures and flavors. Hubs got the BOB, where you can choose two to make one order. He got the Mac Daddy and the Dragon, which had coconut chips, Belgian chocolate drizzle, pineapple and coconut whipped cream. That one was SWEET and also delicious. Each waffle was $14-15. One nice thing is they cut the waffle for you, so each is bite sized. Highly recommend this local treat! (The only reason I didn't give five stars is that it was a bit too sweet for me. If you love, sweet, you would definitely give this place five stars!)

    Are the waffles vegan?

    They are not sorry. Our waffles contain eggs, milk & butter.

    Found this gem via Yelp of course! Look how cute this place is - you can even get to say "hi" to…read moresome of the local friends. Oh and they have a resident cat!!! Stopped by for some mid-day caffeine and to my surprise they had something that I never knew I needed in my life - a macadamia nut latte with macadamia nut milk! It was super tasty - just the perfect amount of sweetness. I don't like overly sweet drinks but this was perfect. So many different flavors to choose from! Really you can get anything that you want. They even sell jewelry made locally. I ended up buying some for my nieces and they loved them. The puka shells are from Kauai! Definitely check this place out when you can! You won't be disappointed!

    I was confused as to why Yelp was recommending a place I had already reviewed... but I guess…read moreSunrise Coffee & Sunrise Donuts are separate entities? The place I went to was outside, on the side of the road, not inside a structure, so I guess I posted in the wrong place. Anyway, this was my experience, & it was really disappointing... & I had no time to say anything about it in person, because I was on a time limit & busy running errands that day. Here's the thing... I'd been following them on IG for AWHILE, so the interest was built up enough to want to give them a try, & because I was headed that direction anyway, I figured, "why not?"... However, I don't know if the girl (the light skinned brunette with the big smile that's in a lot of their IG content) was just having a bad day & ready to leave work or what - it was dead when I got there, except for the small family at the table - but this was one of the WORST smoothies I've ever had! Consistency & flavor wise... like when you expect something, because it's in the name & you don't get that at all? Really weird. I don't make a habit of just leaving negative reviews, but my reviews generally ARE very thorough & well rounded - but it doesn't necessarily make me look forward to any future quality from them, if this is what I got from this place; a super watery "smoothie" that didn't taste like strawberry AT. ALL. Considering it's got that pink color, you would expect a certain flavor, right? NOPE... & I literally sat in my car for a minute before driving off, taking a couple sips, just to make SURE I was getting the TASTE right. All I could come to conclusions about flavor-wise, was what tasted strongly of vanilla protein powder - that was the prominent flavor ie obvious "top note" at least - & nut milk... & I've had enough drinks & SMOOTHIES with vanilla protein powder, to know the flavor is consistent among most protein powder brands. Not even a HINT of strawberry flavor. Strange. Bummer. They were already out of donuts before 10AM, so I can't even counter this with, "well, at least the donuts were awesome"... I came for one thing initially - donuts - & what I DID end up getting, didn't even make the mark. Not sure I will be back, but ladies, for future reference; a SMOOTHIE should be a THICK consistency, NOT runny, like water. I'm guessing there was more ice to product ratio, thus the COLD LIQUID DRINK that I got & what I paid for it, was just NOT it.
