Hanalei Bread Co. was exactly the kind of breakfast stop we were hoping for on the North Shore: fresh, relaxed, and easy to enjoy before a day around Hanalei. I got a fruit/granola bowl topped with banana, strawberries, and blueberries, and it was bright, fresh, and really satisfying without feeling too heavy. The fruit tasted vibrant, the granola added a good crunch, and the whole bowl felt like the right Kauaʻi breakfast--simple, colorful, and made for eating outside. The atmosphere was casual and welcoming, with that laid-back Hanalei feel. It's a great spot if you want coffee, pastries, or a fresh breakfast before heading to the beach, exploring town, or driving back toward Princeville. Would definitely recommend stopping here early in the day. It feels like one of those places that fits the rhythm of Hanalei perfectly. read more

gluten free bread was SO good! Great flavor and held up well. BLT was delish and the aioli was perfect. Got a lavender matcha latte too, which was very refreshing. Loved sitting outside and relaxing! read more

Had breakfast here, food was decent, the menu somewhat limited. I had the breakfast burrito and had them add bacon, which it desperately needed, it lacked salt. Service was polite and friendly and there are only outdoor tables. This was OK, but those darned Hawaii chickens were everywhere. Not the restaurant's fault, but takes away from the experience. read more

The line looks long but moves quickly, and service at the register is fine. I ordered a Kona coffee black ($7), but they had run out and offered a substitute ($5) or the option to wait. I went with the substitute and did not realize until later that the price difference was never refunded. The coffee was fine. The acai bowl was excellent though, topped with fresh fruit and good honey, and something I would definitely order again. read more

The food here was good. Nothing life changing but solidly good. The service was friendly despite the long wait and the ambiance was cute. Outdoor seating is available. To us though it felt a bit overhyped given the long lines. read more

Parking is very hard to find at lunch time. Breads are very good & fresh. Closes at 12:30pm. Plenty of outdoor seating. Sometimes you can overhear the outdoor performances. They give you a number and they bring you the food outside. read more

The food was awful. Service even more so. Brekkie bread was so dry and the cheese not melted. Coffee is not as good as Wishing Well. Everyone threw theirs out. But the service is downright rude. Say thank you and get not even a smile back. When I tried to return the sandwich one girl said to other just get it over with. When I confronted her on it she just got more rude. $100 for 3 people. What a waste.i don't recommend. read more

This place is definitely popular for a reason! It's very cute with good food and great pastries. Pricey but the servings are huge. Breakfast burrito was great. Yogurt bowl was mid at best. I can make a better one at home (skip that). Blueberry poptart was pretty comm good too! Worth the stop but be ready for wait times! read more

Waited all week to give this place a try outside of the coffee. They do have extremely das service. Everyone is very nice and friendly. The decor and feel of the place fits the Hanalei vibes for sure and it's great that it's open seating indoor and outdoor. The coffee is great! I got the Cold Brew both times. The food is great. Nothing absolutely spectacular but it is very fresh. The bread on the sandwiches is light and fluffy. I had a Rueben, a Breakfast burrito and the fancy toast with Gluten Free Bread (just to try it). The Gluten free bread is amazing and some days they have gluten free banana bread which was just amazing! All the food is fresh and tasty with great flavor profiles. I highly suggest this place when visiting! read more

If your in the area of the North Shore don't miss out for a chance to enjoy this place. The atmosphere is relaxing offering both indoor and outdoor seating. The bread is so fresh as are all the ingredients they use. If your lucky enough you can snag a loaf to take with you before it's sold out cause it will sell out. Friendly and fast service read more

Hanalei Bread Company - Their breakfast sandwich was enough to split and we couldn't go without the bagel. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hanalei, Hawaii

We went here several times for breakfast during our stay in North Kauai, and it quickly became one of our favorite morning spots. Over a few visits, we tried the avocado toast, apple ricotta toast, peanut butter banana toast, breakfast burritos, mocha, latte, and tropical smoothie -- everything was consistently good. My personal favorites: the tropical smoothie (so fresh and vibrant), the breakfast burrito (the salsa on the side is surprisingly amazing), and the apple ricotta toast -- sweet, rich, and definitely one to share. And of course, a mocha to end the meal. Highly recommend starting your day here if you're in Hanalei. Just a heads up -- lines can get long when placing your order at the counter. Food is brought out to your table, but you'll need to pick up your drinks at the smoothie/coffee counter. read more

A beautiful and bustling spot in a little shopping center with a lot of pretty stores right by Hanalei Bay. Service was friendly, and food came out pretty quickly. The Matcha Latte with vanilla bean syrup was really good, and the mango and guava pastry was delicious, flaky, and not too sweet but the sandwich fell flat for me. Not bad, but in my opinion way too much bread, super thick slices compared to the filling the filling and I found it to be pretty bland, especially considering it's expensive. Definitely swing by for a drink a pastries though if you're in the north shore area. read more

Review 100 Not great. I ordered a latte and the breakfast burrito. The coffee was very weak -- it tasted more like milk than coffee. The burrito was okay; it was mostly potatoes and by the end it felt heavy. It really could have used some meat.However the service was good and the place has a fantastic view of the Kauai mountains. read more

We visited Hanalei Bread Company while on vacation in Kauai. The food was good, but the customer service was disappointing from start to finish. The staff came across as short, unfriendly, and annoyed that customers were even there. This is already an expensive place to eat, and it's a walk-up counter service restaurant where customers order and handle much of the process themselves. After paying, I chose not to leave a tip, and the employee sarcastically said, "Thanks for the tip." That comment was rude, unnecessary, and incredibly unprofessional. Tipping should be earned through good service and appreciated when given -- not expected or used to shame customers. Tourists and locals spending money there are the reason businesses like this stay open, and a little appreciation and basic courtesy would go a long way. Good food, but the attitude of the staff completely changed the experience and makes it hard to recommend. read more

If you find yourself on the North Shore of Kauai, Hanalei Bread Company is absolutely worth the stop. My wife and I visited during our honeymoon and came here for breakfast, and everything we ordered was fantastic. She got the breakfast sandwich while I ordered the breakfast burrito, and both were incredibly flavorful and satisfying. We also each got iced lattes, which were excellent and paired perfectly with breakfast. To top it all off, we ordered their Macadamia Nut Banana Bread, and wow, if you are a fan of banana bread, this place needs to be on your must visit list. It was easily one of the highlights of the meal. The only thing worth noting is that this place is very popular, which means it can get quite busy, especially in the morning. If you have plans scheduled afterward like we did, make sure to arrive early and give yourself enough time. Overall, this spot was absolutely worth the visit and is somewhere we would gladly return to in the future. read more

Everything about HBC is top notch. They make a mean iced Americano and their breakfast burrito is the best I have ever had. They are always super busy but it is worth it. Their staff is friendly and takes the time to get you what you need. If you're ever in Hanalei, don't miss this gem. read more

On our trip to Hanalei Bay, we had to stop by for coffee somewhere. This was the somewhere. Easy to park, easy to access, and easy to drink/eat. It's kind of an open-air shop with plenty of options to order, but we just wanted something small. The employee at the register was patient, and waited for us to decide on our two drinks and a mac nut banana bread. After we ordered, we sat down outside and munched on the bread while we waited on the coffee. The bread itself was soft, moist, and full of flavor! This was quite good, so if you come here, consider it! The coffee came out a little later, and I just remember it being a little less tasty than I had had on the island previously in the trip. It wasn't anything to write home about, but it also wasn't bad. Very middle of the ground coffee, but that's alright. I still enjoyed my time here, and I'd come back just for the bread! read more

Stopped here for some coffee and a snack. It is a very busy place with some "inside" seating and covered picnic tables out front. We ordered a Strawberry muffin, Immune booster smoothie and a latte for hubby for a mid morning snack. The smoothie was good, but maybe a little too much pepper/ginger for me - it left a little throat burn. The sandwiches and other items we saw looked fantastic as well - if we had more time, I would have loved to try them for lunch. read more

Super cute spot for brunch, great views while sitting on the patio, especially if you enjoy people watching. Brunch was yummy! Our group enjoyed a breakfast burrito, avocado toast, and a matcha latte. We were a little disappointed that we didn't find any spam on the menu, but the food we got was really good. I would definitely recommend this cute place! read more

While dining at Bar Acuda, we were told the Hanalei Bread Company is an awesome place for breakfast. We headed there today and it didn't disappoint. Any restaurant with 10-20 people in line constantly is a good indicator its food is worth the wait. I really appreciate a restaurant that tells you your order is made from scratch, so don't expect it to come out fast. The Breakfast Burrito and Croissant Sandwich were both incredible, and super-sized. We have breakfast covered for tomorrow. read more

Been going here for the past 5 years every time I come to Kauai (which has been 3 times) Hanalei Bread Co. is one of my favorite places for breakfast. All their dishes are freshly made, topped to the brim in goodness. Their service is fast, and the scenery never gets old. I've tried just about everything on their menu, and you really can't go wrong read more

When I travel, I try to only go places once so that I can try as much as I can - pastries were so great; we came back twice. What we got: Chai spice smoothie was very unique and I craved it almost every day during our recent trip. The snickerdoodle cookie danish is the perfect pastry - not overbearingly sweet, yet curbs my sweet tooth, well balanced, and still soft and tasty the next morning. Breakfast burrito comes in a very generous portion and is filled with perfectly cooked and seasoned eggs & potatoes. Second day: we got the strawberry sugar roll. Not as mind blowing as the snickerdoodle cookie danish, but still extremely flavorful & fresh. Atmosphere: Very clean with a reasonably sized, open air dining area. We got here very early and were lucky to have options for where to sit. Service: Mm..yeah..just come for the snickerdoodle cookie danish. It wasn't bad service, just very dismissive and slightly below standard. read more

This was our first breakfast spot of our trip & it did not disappoint one bit! I got a breakfast burrito & vanilla iced latte. Both were phenomenal. Best coffee on the island for sure!! Staff was over the top. Super helpful & approachable. The area this restaurant is located in is perfect as you are surrounded by lush green mountains. There is outdoor seating available. Be prepared to wait in line coming here!! It can get busy but worth the wait!! read more

One of the most beautiful areas on the island and one of the best breakfasts I had!!! Firstly this place can get BUSY with not a lot of seating so be prepared. It's fast paced so you'll definitely end up finding somewhere if you wait. Just look at the food pics holy moly. The club sandwich was clubbbbbbing that was the fattest sandwich I've ever seen in my life and totally worth it. I got the fancy toast which was delicious. Even the available bowl came out quick and was equally as delicious!! The coffees were amazing and gulped down. The staff are all really nice. We got lucky and all pastries were 50% so we grabbed a banana bread too which was gone so quickly I didn't even take a photo. My only issue is how rude the customers are omg. Everyone around us felt the need to be so entitled. But nothing to do with the restaurant just be aware they will ruin your breakfast slightly! Such a wonderful area to spend the morning at. Ample of shopping and parking and it was just a lovely morning minus the senior citizens that thought they owned the place!! Booo. read more

Great place to swing by if you are in the area. They serve breakfast and is about the only coffee house that is open early hours. Was looking for a place that serve açaí bowls and this is where Yelp took us. It's in the cute town of Hanalei. Be ready for a slight wait as this place is always busy but moves steadily. Prices are a bit on the higher end for a coffee shop. They sell fresh bread here too. They only have outdoor seating so be ready to have some company, the chickens haha. read more

10/29/24 Great stop in Hanalei for light breakfast, java & pastries, Hanalei Bread/Co Roasters. Once again, dropping by to get a bag of beans for my boss. At around 9 am, we must've just missed the morning rush. I was the only one in line at first. I ordered an oat milk latte, espresso muffin and a bag of beans for the boss. My drink was ready in no time & I found a seat facing Ching Lung. Within minutes a table opened up & grabbed that one. My hot oat milk latte was pretty good, it tasted more milk than coffee. The muffin was moist but mediocre at best-- Hubby enjoyed it though. I was hoping it would taste more coffee-like. Staff were friendly & responsive. What more could you ask for? Sit & sip, let the chickens grub around your feet, watch people, I am on vacation. We parked by the old school a few doors down. October is ideal if you want to relax & be low key. Loving it! read more

This is a regular spot we come to for breakfast every time we are in Kauai. It's hit or miss but when there's a rush of customers, the line gets long. That being said, we've never left feeling like it wasn't worth the wait. We've enjoyed everything from their more savory breakfast items, pastries, or acai bowls. It's located in a small but busy area of restaurants and shops so lots to see in the area after brekkie here. Pros: Good variety of breakfast options, smoothies, acai bowls, pastries, and breakfast foods Cons: Line is long during peak times read more

We came here for breakfast on the way to Hanalei Pier. Should have grabbed it to go. The good: They have a great outdoor area to eat. We had the Avocado toast, Peanut Butter and Banana and a Fancy toast. All of these were yummy. The bad: we also ordered and paid for a couple pastries which were forgotten by the staff. Thankfully, when I asked the person who delivered our toasts, she chalked it up to a new person behind the register and packed up our pastries to go. Coffee was good enough and they have a variety of creams and sweeteners, including non dairy options. read more

Honest reviews for honest taste buds- I got avocado toast and a brekkie sandwich. However, to order avocado toast and a brekkie sandwich, you have to wait 20 minutes in line and then 20 minutes after that for your food. I'll admit, it's very cute once you get inside, and they often have local art for sale. Once I finally got my food, I had my avocado toast, and it was good! Although if you don't like microgreens, I wouldn't recommend it. Now, this is where I get upset.. Once I got my brekkie sandwich after the 20-minute cook time, it was cold. How are you serving me a cold breakfast sandwich??? pros- avocado toast was good cons- ALWAYS a massive line wait time is ridiculous cold brekkie sandwich 6/10 read more

Can't speak for the coffee but we did get the breakfast burrito, toast, and tropical smoothie which were all very delicious! Breakfast Burrito: the portion on this was specifically HUGE. If you're crazy hungry in the AM, this is definitely an item that will fill you up. Tropical Smoothie was delicious as it was nourishing. Toast: the serving of the salmon on the toast along with Arugala was perfect. Overall the service was great, the workers were pleasant and very vibrant. Food came out with not too long of a wait and plenty of areas to sit inside and out. The only knock I have is the prices. Pretty up there for a breakfast food but was still a great experience. read more

Really good place for breakfast. They have a variety of breakfast items. We chose the breakfast sandwich and fruit smoothie. It was really good and a nice amount of eggs. There is no table service so you walk up to order and they give you a number, then someone brings you your meal. After eating you put your dishes in a bin (there is a sign). It feels like you are in a former house and we sat outside. read more

If you're in Hanalei, this place is a must. Incredibly cute establishment with absolutely delicious food, coffee and smoothies. I ordered a latte which was perfectly creamy and a monkey juice smoothie, which was out of this world incredible. Holy smokes. I would come back to Kauai just for this smoothie! Staff were friendly and helpful. Drinks came out quickly, which was surprising given the long line to the counter. I'll be back. read more

We were staying in Princeville and came here the morning after we arrived. Located on the left as you enter town, parking is in the little shopping center across the street. HBC has a very tropical vibe. Picnic tables on the grass out front, and a nice outdoor patio. You enter on the right side, up the ramp, and order inside. The line moves quickly. I had the breakfast burrito and a cup of dark roast coffee, which I very much enjoyed, and my wife had a bagel, which she liked, and OJ that was delicious. My only complaint, which happened again when I came just for coffee was, was that the half and half pitcher was empty or very nearly empty. Still, we had a wonderful experience. read more

Got in line around 6:55am.. a couple of old guys cut in front of us but NBD. Walked up the ramp once they opened up and it took about 10 mins before we ordered. Menu isn't anything special, just geared for the haole crowd. "Toasts" were on cold, thick slices with either avocado, goat cheese and smoked salmon, ricotta and apple, or peanut butter and banana. The cashier recommended a couple pastries and we went with the Mango Pineapple Scone. It didn't taste like anything. Coffee was alright and I appreciated all the milk options outside. Otherwise, this place is just overhyped and I preferred Wake Up Delicious across the street. read more

We went at 8am on a Sunday, and they had a sign saying they ran out of biscuits and scones. They also had a sign saying smoothie bar closed, no bowls and no smoothies. The espresso muffin was really delicious. I usually am not a muffin person, but it was really good. The top had crispy bits, and there was a layer of chocolate dolloped on top too. (It doesn't taste like coffee or espresso- I think it's called espresso muffin bc it's kind of like coffee cake, but in muffin form) The breakfast sandwich was big and tasty. Definitely hit the spot. read more
