    We love to stop into Brug once a week to grab a sweet or savory treat (sometimes both) for the day. We've been to multiple locations but the Kapolei location has the largest selection to choose from. We've tried a little bit of everything from Brug and it's always delicious and satisfying!! There is something for everyone here. The service is great and the ambiance is warm and inviting.

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

    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!

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    They're not kidding…read more.. First thing you walk in is a wall of cupcakes of all kinds and let me tell you each and every one of them are just a work of art. I decided to swing by since I was in the area and looking for some cake...no they don't have cake here but they do have cupcake lol and it was for a event that Fishcake in Kaka'ako had was "Take one leave one...but make it cake". Where we trade trinkets and bring cake where they provided plates and utensils but we had to cut the cake so instead I thought of bringing something already cut for convenience Banana Bread :) oh yes and with chocolate chips it was either that or cupcakes, brownies or cookies lol why bother stray from the usual and bring a yummy treat. Well that have that and so much more than I realize if it was cupcakes it would probably be green tea, lilikoi, pistachio...maybe strawberry lemonade or German chocolate omg the selection is quite incredible and I wasn't prepared for it. The staff is very helpful and friendly with all our questions and I love that everything is at your convenience to see without asking and with lots of free parking getting here is easy and yes a piece of cake. Thank you!

I got to try a bunch of different items and my ranking is below 1. Banana Chantilly Cupcake 5/5 2. Pistachio cupcake 2/5 3. Red velvet cupcake 2/5 4. German chocolate cupcake 5/5 5. Chocolate covered chocolate chip cookie 3/5 6. Lilikoi bar 10/5 My cupcake 4 pack was kinda a mixed bag. I'm wondering if that comes down to personal preferences more than anything else. About $17 for the 4 pack though so I can honestly only recommend banana chantilly and German chocolate so far. I would skip the cookie because they have so many other options but I'm relieved I only bought one and not the whole bag. Finally I have to say the Lilikoi bar was delicious. One of the best I've ever had. Totally worth the price and would absolutely purchase again. Shop is cute and clean. Next on my list Mac nut brownies!!

    When I first inquired about the cake. Gal said it would be $70/ $55 for a 1/2 sheet cake and the…read moredecorations is $15 for the Doc Mcstuffin theme. There was also supposed to be a 10% craigslist discount. After seeing the many decorated cakes on her fancy website and inquiring with Gal, i figured the cake would be pictured with our theme; it would be decorated as doc Mcstuffin and as she indicated there would be a few toppers. I wanted to ensure that i was able to get a cake with this decoration for my daughters birthday since a 2 tier/3D fancy cake could not meet our budget. I contacted Gal on 3 occasions to confirm pricing, purchasing and pick up. I thought during this time, she took my order and unfortunately we were not on the same page. I sent my husband down there to pay $70 for the cake. However, she made him look thru a book of 1"x1" pictures of cakes and choose cake toppers to add to the cake. The toppers were $5 each, for the exception of one that was 1/2 the size. Anyhow, the cake came out to $90. I had to call her and asked why the cost was different then what she quoted me? She said "your husband chose all the cake toppers." I told her that i gave her my order and he was supposed to just taste the cake, choose a flavoring and pay for the cake. Anyhow, I didn't have time get into it and just left it at that. Fast foward to Scarlet's 2nd birthday. See the cake for your self. It was a regular lightly flowered-decorated cake with toppers on it. Really? I could have paid $25 for a Costco cake and order cake toppers on amazon for half the price. What does flowers have to do with our theme? What a disapooinment. She couldn't paint a stethoscope, doctor bag or bandaid on the cake? Her website shows all the other cakes decorated as themed. Unfortunately, the taste of the cake wasn't amazing either. There was a very thin layer of the flavoring that you get to choose from a selection of 5. Everyone kept asking what it was. It was supposed to be guava strawberry and unfortunately it tasted like a cheap version of guava jelly. The whip cream was too sweet as well. The cake separated at this layer too. It was cake, guava/strawberry flavoring/ cream/cake and it was falling apart while serving. The cake was in the house the entire time. It was hot though, but i don't believe that was the reason for the separation. Moral of story... Open communication. Make sure you know what you are buying. Maybe ask for a bigger picture that will be exactly what you are looking for. Ask for direct cost and not a generic quote.
