    I purchased a Rainbow cake for my daughter's birthday. The online order process was convenient. The issue was that I paid for the extra chocolate to write a birthday wish. You could tell that they made a mistake on my daughter's name, Alice, and tried to correct it. I overheard the employees talking about it when I picked up. It's disappointing because the cost of using a new chocolate can't be that much. Also, the cake is misleading because a picture of a Rainbow cake is wrapped around and taped. This makes me assume that the cake was premade and frozen with frosting added even though it's not a cheap cake.

    They gave a "happy birthday" piece- candles- matches & spatula for cutting/serving

    Located on Bishop between Executive Center and 24 hour fitness. Friendly service. They totally added a special "happy birthday" chocolate piece, candles, cake cutter/server with the matches!! What?! So awesome!! She made the difference for sure. I was a little turned off by the cashier next to her who was a lil rude. However the kindness and smiles of Nancy D (that's the name on the receipt). Casual location, clean, neat, air conditioned.

    This is unreal try it trust me

    Since today was Sunday I figured free street parking so why not check out Paris Baguette located downtown. This location was their first and it's located on Bishop St. heart of downtown financial district . I remembered when they first opened it was always crowded not anymore . My go to is their Ham and cheese croissant it's very crispy on the outside and the inside is nice a buttery. I believe there's cheese on the outside as well because when you first bite into it it's very crunchy. No very big Bakery I'm sure it gets crowded very fast when there a lot of customers. Service was not great no one greeted me until I came to the counter . Normally someone who's stocking the pastry will ask if there's any question or can they help me with something. It's ok I've noticed they hire lot of young people that could be the problem? . I'm OG so I'm very customer service oriented and no matter what if you provide good customer service people will always come back.

    It's a "quä-sawn" . Making my way downtown, walking fast, faces pass and I'm bakery bound -- dunananananaa Staring blankly ahead, just making my way, making a way thru the morning coffee craa-aa-aowd -- dunananananaa and I need food -- dunununununu something sweet too -- dunununununu and now I wonnnnder... . A great bakery choice if you're within walking distance! Pastries can be reheated upon request - try it for the savory ones - like their curry croquets (: I'm strictly partial to their baked goods and matcha lattes - yes, moi is basic - and I've been happy with my picks. Tho, I tried the cutest sprinkled pink holiday donut that was thoughtfully shared w/ me the other day... pas bon, the heartbreak. . Everything looks delectable in their big display cases. But even with just a few guests inside, the glass can quickly feel like walls. Avoid the morning workday rush. . c'est la vie

    Paris Baguette is my go to spot for any of the desserts that I don't want to make at home. It's always such a treat to pick up anything both aesthetically and tastefully pleasing. Mina and the staff is so efficient and helpful that helps keep me coming back to explore new flavors :)

    Paris Baguette is a bakery-cafe located on Bishop Street, where the old Starbucks use to be. They're part of a Korean chain, specializing in freshly baked cakes, sweet and savory pastries and coffee beverages. We stopped by on a busy weekend morning and waited in the quickly moving line to fill our tray with pastries. With more hungry customers slowly lining up behind us, we grabbed a curry croquette, crab meat croquette, hash brown pastry, hot dog pastry and chocolate croissant. Once at the register, we ordered a Korean iced coffee to share. We waited a short while outside as the staff prepared our coffee and warmed up our savory baked goods. There are a few covered tables outside of the bakery but we grabbed our breakfast and crossed the street to enjoy our meal in the grassy Tamarind Park. Over all a cute cafe in the middle of downtown Honolulu. Definitely try to order in advance online to avoid the line.

    First timer and I wanted to see the hype was. My first impression of walking in was wow look at all the colorful fruits on display with the yummy pastries. I had to get me a few. Plus I needed me some coffee. Ordering and standing in line went pretty quick. The menu was on displayed and the lady was nice enough to recommend some good drinks. I got a white mocha iced. That was delicious. A little milky but with an extra shot I think it would've been perfect for my taste preference. I would definitely order that again. The pastry I got was a fruity one with the cream and berries. Oh my gosh that was delicious! It was soft and crispy all at the same time. The berries were sweet and didn't leave a bad taste at all. In all, I would definitely come here again!

    Quiet little shop that replaced where Starbucks use to be on Bishop st. Great place to come drink coffee and have sweets paired with it. Brought a variety of things to try some are pictured and some are not as it was already eaten by time I took a pic of what was left. lol The Drink we tried was the Holiday Churro. It was good would get again.

    Paris Baguette opened in the former Starbucks location in downtown Honolulu on 2/22/24. Founded and owned by the SPC Group of South Korea in 1986, the Honolulu location is one of 4,000+ locations worldwide. The chain offers pastries, cakes, and breads baked fresh daily, and sandwiches and salads prepared daily as well. The Honolulu location is intended to be a grab-n-go operation for office workers working in downtown with future expansions in the Ala Moana area and Pearl City. The So. Korean pastries are lighter and not as sweet as American pastries. Pastry fillings are often whipped cream that tend to be airy instead of being rich and dense. Breads are softer and less chewy. Lavazza coffee beans are used in making their coffee. Paris Baguette's goal is to do two things better than any other bakery/café franchise, i.e., to provide a comfortable, inviting guest experience and having the highest quality of baked goods and coffees. Its target audience is the upper-class consumers across Asia and the US. With 200+ menu items on rotation, there are display cases filled with pastries, and refrigerated sections with decorated cakes, sandwiches, and salads. With the exception of cakes, all items are self-serve. You get your tray, then a paper liner for your tray, and a plastic glove to grab your pastries (no tongs used here). When you are ready to pay, there is a container near the cash register to dispose your gloves. With so many choices, it's hard to decide what to choose! For the few times being there, I've tried the following: * Mochi donuts. The 3 mochi donuts that I've tried - red strawberry, coconut flake topping over a glaze, and fine sugar topping, are delicious! They're the perfect texture and the right chewiness for mochi donuts. * Sliced ganache cream cake. For chocolate lovers, the creamy chocolate ganache has a rich flavor that just melts in your mouth and is so delicious! * Sliced rainbow cake. While it's pretty to look at with all the different colored layers, the cake has a mild flavor and melts in your mouth. * Jumbo twisted donut. Made with sweet rice flour and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar, it was chewy and tasted like a very tasty churro! It was so large that it had to be bent to fit in the box! * Fruit pastry. The fresh Kiwi, raspberry, strawberry, and mandarin orange complemented the flaky crust. It was very refreshing! Staff is friendly, helpful, and efficient. There is always someone restocking the inventory of pastries, so it's easy to have your questions answered by that person. When you're ready to pay, additional staff is available to box your goods and ensure that your payment has been applied to their rewards program. The interior is bright and clean. As the area is small, sometimes there is a line of people ready to pay who are blocking part of the display case. And because there are a lot of customers going in and out, be mindful that a few flies might wander in. Hours of operation are daily from 6a to 6p. As the bakery is geared to office workers, there may be less inventory on the weekends. If you do not work in downtown, parking may be a problem. There is hard-to-find metered street parking or nearby private parking lots that do not validate parking. It's best to have two people in the car, with one driving and waiting nearby, and the other getting the pastries. Don't forget to sign up for the rewards program of earning 1 point for every $1 spent for future discounts. You also get a free cake slice during the week of your birthday. So glad that Paris Baguette is in HI with plans for expansion elsewhere in HI! Nice to have a choice of pastries, and Korean too!

    There are so many places to get delicious jasmine green tea in Hawaii but wanted to try this Paris Baguette location since I was nearby. Service was mediocre (as you can see in my photos, my green tea was poured, but sat on the back counter....until the workers decided they were ready to hand them to me). Not sure why the delay, other than they felt it was more important to serve others that came after me (I literally watched them do this....) Paris Baguette offers a good variety of pastries, coffee, drinks, breads, sandwiches, etc ....this particular location seems a little low on hand held pastries but had several cakes available. Outdoor seating is available to enjoy in the amazing weather. Personally, I will pass on this location....perhaps I looked like a tourist and didn't belong in downtown Honolulu....at least that is how the workers made me feel...so they don't need my money.

    Come here my precious

    I have been a customer since the opening of this first location in Hawaii. Have to admit, wasn't the biggest fan of it in Korea (they have stiff competition in bakeries and cafes) yet have come to know and love PB for their variety of both sweet AND savory treats. And I have come to love the excellent service of the counter personnel and generous heart of the owner here. Will miss my favorite counter person and her phenomenal service, yet wish Oiwell all the best. ALL the staff I have interacted with here are super helpful! ...Exceptionally service oriented. They have helped me with loading up my car with meeting treats every Saturday. Thank you all! And what do I get? For the group I try to spread my purchase as much as I can and that means lots of "mini" pasteries, mini croissants, mini cream cheese garlic bites (one of my favorites). For me, my favorites are anything with their yummie sourdough bread, the memorable egg salad sandwich stuffed with cucumber slices and basil (could use a pinch of salt but I love that its healthier without), my all time favorite pastry... the pecan tart (too bad that's just seasonal). Parking is non-existent. Have found a host of "regular" cars pulled curbside with hazard lights on to run in and quickly pickup (perhaps I shouldn't encourage that)... if staying to linger, your best bet is street metered parking or one of the many municipal parking close by. Or, if you work in the area then ...just walk. They do have a lovely outdoor seating area! Located just across the street from Tamarind Park on Bishop, just before King Street. Will I be back? Definitely on Saturday tho... thinking of coming this Monday now too..!

    Croissant.

    I've never tried any of the drinks or pastries from Paris Baguette, but their cake was delicious and the perfect dessert to bring to a party! I preordered through their app, which made picking up the cake a breeze. The cake came neatly packaged in a box and came with decorations, a cake cutter, and matches. The staff were very friendly. I would definitely get their Strawberry Soft Cream Cake again, as it was very light, not too sweet, fresh, and affordable.

As a returning customer placing my second order, I expected a much higher level of professionalism and customer service. As the food the first time was amazing. I was prepared to spend $77 on this order, and the least I expected was the professional courtesy of a phone call to explain the situation and offer an apology, even if the staff was busy or unable to fulfill the order. Simply canceling an order without any communication demonstrates a strong lack of respect for customers and their time. Because of how this was handled, I will not be returning, nor can I recommend this establishment to others. Strong customer service is about communication and accountability, and unfortunately, this experience fell far short of those expectations.

    Okay first thing to say about my experience, location sucks!…read more Located next to other shops it was easy to pass by this small spot. I had to circle around to find the parking. Well there is enough parking in the back parking lot. But there's this security guard there. I asked if he's the parking attendant and he said I'm security. I asked where machetes is and he said that's in the front I only care about the back. So I guess that's his only job to watch the parking lot. And it's located across a homeless camp. So I can see why the need for parking security. Such a turn off! Upon entering machetes I was greeted. The worker asked if I was ready to order and I said just another minute as I wanted to look over the menu for what I wanted since it was my first time. The counter was covered in devices I guess a lot of people order from here. I ordered a turkey and salami sandwich. The worker then asked if I wanted it on the white or brown wheat bread. I chose wheat. While waiting I asked if they make their own bread and they do so I was impressed. The worker asked me, you say you didn't want tomatoes? Then I responded I want everything it supposed to come with. I thought I heard him say a second thing but wasn't sure and I was looking closer to the menu. I didn't realize you can add items to the sandwich for free. The worker then hands me the sandwich wrapped ready to go. I then said oh sorry can you add peppers, cucumbers and Italian vinaigrette. He did not look happy. I apologized saying sorry it was my first time. He said it was cool. Well proceed to pay. And he said have a nice day and I said thanks and left. Sandwich tasted amazing! Big portion! The wheat bread was so soft and light. Refreshing from all the vegetables. And moist from the vinaigrette. Although peppers were missing. Total for just the and sandwich was $13.40. Not a bad sandwich. Just a weird location and weird vibe. Don't forget that there are free addons and a list of them in a tiny section on the bottom of menu. They won't remind you it's there or offer it lol. I'd come back.

Parking is super easy with the complimentary structure, and the café is located on the bottom floor alongside other vendors. One thing I immediately appreciated was how well air-conditioned the entire market is--it's nice and cool, which makes sitting and eating there really comfortable. The cashier recommended the turkey pesto croissant, but suggested swapping it onto ciabatta since it's one of her favorites--and I'm so glad I trusted her. It was phenomenal. The flavors were balanced, the bread held everything together perfectly, and it felt like a step above your typical sandwich. I also had what looked like a simple salad, but the vinaigrette and candied pistachios really elevated it and made it feel more thoughtful than expected. The staff across the board were friendly and welcoming, and there's plenty of seating--whether inside the café or out in the open market area. Honestly, the value surprised me the most. I paid under $13 for everything, which is hard to beat for the quality. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to.

She made the experience super enjoyable :) I'm glad I went with a friend as we got to try two of their yummy sandwiches! When we went, they are offering different kinds of sandwiches. We got a roast beef and a pesto sandwich. -The roast beef sandwich was definitely our favorite. The bread so toasted and also fluffy. The sauce they had on the sandwich was just so terrific and onolicious!! We devoured it so fast, I can't remember what else was in it other than it was so freakin awesome! -The pesto sandwich was good too but definitely not as memorable as the roast beef. I can't remember exactly what type of meat it was (possibly turkey?). The pesto sauce was good and they put pickled onions in this sandwich so so Ono!!!

They don't necessarily have a set menu so your best bet is to check out their Instagram page to see where they will be and what will they be serving. My favorite sandwich thus far is their po'ipu (turkey, sun-dried tomatoes, and pesto). The bread they use is foccacia which will fill you up pretty quickly. And because they usually operate during work day hours, it is best that you just eat half of the sandwich to avoid that afternoon crash. Prices for these sandwiches may be on the higher side but the quality of the food makes up for it. This food truck is definitely worth checking out. Make sure you follow their Instagram account and see where they will end up. Pro tip: turn on that notifications to see where they are and head there before the lunch rush appears.

About 10 minutes before my 2:00 PM pickup time, I received a text letting me know my order was ready, which was a nice surprise. I ordered the IL Parma sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious. At $24, it's definitely on the expensive side for a sandwich, but the quality of the ingredients and the freshness made it worth every penny. The flavors were fantastic, and I didn't mind paying the premium price after taking that first bite. Parking can be a little tricky. I'm not sure whether customers are allowed to use the Hana Koa parking lot for quick pickups, but a kind employee allowed me to park there while I ran in to grab my order. There are only a few parking spaces directly in front of Bocconcino, so that's something to keep in mind. There's some tables under a covered area, right next to the store. Many people were seated there talking story and enjoying drinks. Overall, a great experience and an excellent sandwich. I'll definitely be back for another Italian sandwich!

In addition to food they have a small shop stocked with goodies from Italy, which adds to the charm. The pizza crust was fantastic crispy and delicious. My only complaint is that I wish it had more sauce. I'm a saucy gal! The bite that had a good amount of sauce was incredibly flavorful, but the rest of the slice was a bit dry, and I tasted more oil than tomato sauce. It was great dough but the flavor was not there for me. I really want to love this pizza more! The staff was friendly, though it took a little while to get my slice. They reheat each slice to order, and they were busy making other items, so it was understandable. I'll be back to try a panini!

    My husband and I were in the area and decided to try Little G Cafe after seeing all the positive…read moreYelp reviews. Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. After looking over the menu options, we stood waiting for quite a while before anyone acknowledged us or took our order. The manager seemed rude and unwelcoming, which immediately set a negative tone for the visit. Looking back we should have trusted our first impression, but we decided to give it a chance and see what the hype was about. We each ordered a slice of pizza and took it outside to eat. After eating , we walked past the glass wall of the cafe and I noticed the manager handling and mixing flour with his bare hands, with the flour mixture covering his hands and forearms. I didn't expect to see food prep without disposable gloves and it made me uncomfortable. The pizza itself didn't make up for the experience. At around $22 per slice, I was expecting something exceptional or life-changing, instead, it was pretty underwhelming. The flavor, texture, and overall quality just didn't justify the premium price. Between the unfriendly service, concerns about food handling, and the disappointing pizza, I don't feel the experience was worth the cost of overpriced slices of pizza and I will not be returning nor will I recommend Little G Cafe to others. There are plenty of other pizza spots in Honolulu, including Boston's Pizza, that offer better value and a much more welcoming atmosphere.

The crust…read moreis a little less blistered than some places but is solid, great bite, foldable, served on classic NY white paper plates with wavy rim. They have some creative other slices like vodka sauce with pesto etc which are tasty but if you're a pizza purist and lover you can't go wrong with two cheese slices. There aren't much frills so you can have water or soda from their mini fridge. Almost like going to a corner pizza place in the city. Sandwiches available sometimes. We go early for lunch on Sundays and grab a seat outside. The proprietor was especially kind and friendly to my FIL and I appreciated that. Overall this is the second best NY style pizza place after black shamrock by a small margin - the Jersey pie at shamrock with its awesome sauce and perfect crust is hard to beat but don't think you can order it by the slice. So very very close.

Conveniently located near Duke's, there's one outdoor table nearby, but really, just pick up a sandwich and take it to the beach! Staff was very friendly. Plenty of options for sandwiches and salads (and maybe more options, just what I noticed). I got the tuna sandwich and added a slice of pepper jack. I said no mayo or mustard, though I'd probably recommend mayo. There are so many veggies that it needs a little sauce. The veggies make you feel like you're eating something super healthy! There wasn't a ton of tuna in the sandwich, but half was filling enough for me. I'll save the rest for tomorrow.

    I'm going to start by saying you won't find a sandwich shop in Waikiki like Pai's Deli. Their…read moresandwiches are packed with fresh ingredients and tons of flavor. Skipping this place would be a crime. And prices are very reasonable for what you get. It's a hidden gem, tucked inside the Outrigger Waikiki Beach Resort just to the right of Duke's. I've been here many times and have ordered both smoothies and sandwiches. Let me tell you, the bread is incredibly soft, the greens are crisp and fresh, and the protein is ALWAYS tasty. The team works hard to craft your sandwich every time, and I always get a warm "thank you" when I pick mine up (I swear I got into a thank-you battle once, and of course, they won). I highly recommend the tuna sandwich. It's seasoned perfectly and generously filled with tuna. The greens are always piled high. Shredded carrots, spinach leaves, and more sprouts than you'd think possible. It's healthy and DELICIOUS. I usually add avocado, and the sandwich with avocado comes out to $13.75, which is a great deal for Waikiki. Oh! and you get a little skewer of two pineapple slices! It's cute, refreshing, and perfectly ripe every time. The last smoothie I ordered was the Avocado Green Island. It's made with mango, avocado, spinach, banana, greek yogurt, and coconut milk. It's creamy, slightly tangy, and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend. I've also tried their chicken salad sandwich (money!) and my favorite, the Captain Salad. I recommend getting it with Caesar dressing. The brand of ranch they use isn't really my thing. They also have a homemade balsamic vinagarette that sounds amazing. The salad is huge, topped with turkey and generous crumbles of bacon. I'm telling you, they're serving hit after hit after hit at this spot. Go and enjoy ASAP!
