    Wife's breads... fav is the raisin bread.
    Richard D.

    Been coming to Brug Kapolei ever since it first opened. Before that, we went to 85c Bakery in Kapolei to scratch our pastry itch. However, Brug is our favorite. Shelves are always full and the have a wide selection of pastries, breads, and other treats. While it's not big, it is clean and service is fast and friendly. Also like the recent addition of three tables out on the sidewalk. Nice to see families sitting down and enjoying themselves.

    Our go to bakery! Love everything here! It's best to go in the morning to see a wide selection of fresh bakery stuff.

    Mochi donuts and muffins

    Decided to stop in on way back from Target and was glad we did. The store reminded me of a 85 degree bakery or any asian bakery really. The Japanese buns and pastries did not disappoint and were pretty pleased with the selections and service. We got an assortment of mochi donuts, curry bread, apple pies, croquettes, and a Kouign-amann (super buttery and crispy pastry). Everything was good no complaints from anyone in the house. Would be back again to try more stuff.

    We love Brug! So many different pastries to try, both savory and sweet. Our family loves the beef curry pan, the pizzas, and the mochi donuts. The bakery seems very clean and the staff is very friendly. Everything we've had from here is delicious. We also received free samples of the white bread and a free tote!

    Monkey bread, chocolate croissant, and seasonal strawberry cream cheese danish.

    Brug Bakery on the Westside! I'm guessing many who come to Brug Kapolei would visit the next closest Brug in Pearlridge. This is like any other Brug--you sanitize your hands, grab a tray, parchment paper, and a pair of tongs, and pick away! Brug Kapolei is definitely more narrow than Pearlridge. While Pearlridge's is open and square-shaped, Kapolei's is rectangular, hot dog style. It's like customers would have to form a single file line to pick pastries, then wait to pay, then walk up to the cashier. This set up would be tough for those like me who like to survey all baked options before picking pastries. Along this narrow walkway, you'll see the savory or meat-filled pastries, followed by the sweet pastries. I picked a piece of monkey bread, a chocolate croissant, and the seasonal strawberry cream cheese danish. While waiting to pay, customers get a good view of the bakers busy making yummy treats in the kitchen, along with displays of all sorts of kuma (bear) themed cakes. It was surreal seeing a view of bakers while staying on the Westside. Of course, they serve coffees and locally made teas. On a Saturday morning, only one cashier was in front, but she worked efficiently, switching from one POS machine to the next between customers. Brug doesn't have my favorite taro bun (but I kinda knew that)! Come here for croissants and their famous monkey bread. Go to 85 Degrees for the taro bun and more Chinese-style pastries. Apple Maps has this Brug location wrong. If you're exiting H-1 through Kalaeloa, you can see the Brug signage at a corner between Down to Earth and Ross. Thanks for opening up on the Westside and saving us a trip to town or Pearlridge, Brug!

    Brug Bakery on the west side? What? Can't believe we finally have one on this side of the island. I've always been to this bakery whenever I go to town side, and I'm glad I'm able to just drive close by and get pastries and goodies anytime! Located right by Massage Envy and Ross Kapolei. Lots of parking space, and the sign is big for you to see. I went at 10 a.m. before my massage appointment next door, and the selection was amazing. They were surprisingly still stocked, and the workers continued to fill the items. I love how it's a good mix of savory and sweet treats, and I'm excited to try more. My hands-down favorite is the tuna bread and mochi donuts.

    Checked out this new Brug location in Kapolei. Right next to the Verizon store. The shop had all the usual breads and pastries from their other shops. Everything looked appealing and freshly baked. Some pastries seemed pricey but comparable to similar bakeries in Honolulu. Convent location for the west side. Service was fast and friendly. The hype has died down from their opening so it was a quick visit.

    Brug stickers

    My first visit to the newest Brug Bakery located at the Kapolei Commons. I went at opening, there was a line, check out was pretty quick. There's 3 types of Anpan Jumbo, Koshi and Hokkaido. My favorite is the Jumbo Anpan. If you like a good Anpan this one's for you.. Jumbo Anpan consist of double the amount of red bean. I purchased 2 Jumbo Anpans and 2 sausage rolls it's an arabiki sausage wrapped in a soft Japanese bread. Both were warm and satisfying! Baked goods are in a bakery display case, personally I think It would be better if these were individually wrapped like their other locations. Other than that it's great to have a Brug Bakery in Kapolei. Welcome to Kapolei & love the cute bear stickers!

    I'm so glad they opened a Brug in Kapolei. This was my first time visiting this location and I was impressed. Located in Kapolei Commons next to Massage Envy, there is plenty of parking out front and a wide variety of pastries, bread and sweets to choose from. Compared to their other locations, I thought that this location had more options to choose from. They have cute strawberry and chocolate kuma cottas, new cakes and my favorite chocolate kuma puffs. My other favorites are the cranberry and cream cheese bread, mochi donut, tuna bomb, custard bread, curry pan and cream cheese bomb. The staff are helpful and the interior is wide and well lit. I recommend putting in your phone number when checking out to earn points for future purchases.

    Post on made and pull time
    Irene M.

    Welcome to Kapolei... What a surprise to find that Kapolei Commons is home to the newest Brug Bakery and what a treat literally to see them here. You can find them at the opposite end of the theaters near Ross's as this newest addition does have some items that are unique to this location. Though yes once you walk in you'll find rows of individual keeping pairs of various pastries with a sign beside each item with name and price with a brief description some with time constraints has a made/pull time so there's no stress about its information. Along with some grab and go drinks and some merchandise of jelly and loaves of bread that you see at all locations what they have here are crafted drinks from their barista menu with teas and coffee it's pinkies up to pair with you pastries as well. What's also unique about this location is they have a display case filled with some cuties Kuma which is bear in Japanese are found here in Kuma Puffs where it's a round cream puff all dressed up like a bear and Cheese Kuma Cotta...their version of a Panna Cotta. The vibe here is just so nice and friendly with staff greeting you right when you enter and to wrap your pastries so nice and ready to travel is greatly appreciated and know that it's the spot that many have already enjoyed as well. Thank you!

    Came to the grand opening. Showed up a little before 10 and made it in the bakery by 11:50 am. The staff did a good job of letting a certain amount of people in at a time. This location has certain items other locations do not have. Like their strawberry stuffed bear. They also had a bear with a heart stuffed with banana cream for Valentine's day. I was excited to try all the strawberry things including their fresh imported strawberries from Japan. My mom came and she got the cranberry loaf which was stuffed with cream cheese. It was soo good! I got a matcha mochi donut, fresh fruit cheese danish, chocolate croissant, mini baguettes, monkey bread, potato croquette, hotdog bun for my hubby. Strawberry pastry filled with red bean paste. I also wanted to try their panna cotta bear. It's so cute! We get one free on our next visit. We also got a free black tote bag. I wanted the chocolate cup but the girl at the front misunderstood me. My mom ordered us some drinks. She got a matcha frappe and I got a Strawberry matcha. She liked hers, mine was ok, too much ice. Spent around $80.00. The strawberries were pricey. I'm glad there is a Brug Bakery closer to me! I'm excited what other goodies they get in.

    Coming soon 1-2026!

    Love that Brug Bakery will be opening soon, January 2026, in the Kapolei Commons (next to the Verizon store). This location will be the largest location on Oahu. This new store will be the only location selling BRUG Kuma Cakes! Make sure to check for more updates!

    2/15/26 The last time I was there was during their soft opening. Being that their grand opening was yesterday, I waited to go today and there was no line. There were a lot more baked items, and this time around, items seemed fresher and several items were still warm. I was much more satisfied. *Customer service needs to improve...reason for 3 stars.

    Yay!

    Always fresh and a great selection. We don't live on Oahu, but often will pick up a few loaves while visiting to keep in our freezer.

    There's something about walking into a bakery early in the morning and smelling fresh bread that…read moreinstantly brings back memories. We stopped by Nanding's Bakery in Waipahu on a Saturday around 6:15 AM. There was only one other customer inside and plenty of parking, so it was the perfect time to stop in. The moment I walked through the door, I was greeted by the aroma of freshly baked bread -- and suddenly I was transported right back to my childhood. Growing up, bakery runs were a thing in our family. We would go to Kamehameha Bakery and Nanding's in Kalihi, and I remember coming home with two dozen pandesal. It's funny how something as simple as a bag of fresh bread can become such a core childhood memory. Now I get to continue that little tradition with my own family. Our favorites are the Spanish rolls and pandesal, and if there's one thing I recommend -- eat them while they're fresh and warm! The bread is so soft and fluffy, and there's just something about opening that bag/box while everything is still warm that makes it even better. The ladies working that morning were wonderful too. We were greeted right away, and everyone was helpful, efficient, and genuinely sweet. You can feel the love and pride they put into what they make, and that kind of local hospitality makes the experience even more special. Our haul this morning was a box of 18 Spanish rolls + pandesal for $18.17 -- fresh, warm, nostalgic, and plenty to bring home for the family. If you're visiting Oʻahu and want to try a local bakery favorite, Nanding's is definitely worth adding to your list. And if you grew up in Hawaiʻi with fresh pandesal from the bakery... you already know. TIP: Go early! Fresh, warm bread straight from the bakery is the only way to do it.

    I'm only here for the Spanish rolls…read more Sure they have other baked items but something about buttery sticks of dough, lightly sugary is very appealing when warm. Just don't look at the bottom of the box after a couple of mins :0 The hours of operation works for me. There's always a line formed right outside before they open at 4:30 on the weekdays. Like I mentioned, they have other baked goods and they all look good. I'm sure they taste just as good as they look, I just can't verify. Overall five stars. Plenty of parking when I'm there at 4:20 am ;p M
