Very very sweet Lafayette taking orders! Amazing sandwiches, we had the breakfast sandwich with bacon ( not my favorite it had to much of the special sauce) the turkey avocado and ham and cheese were great!!! Must have the golden latte Sooooooo good! If you are in rush to catch a flight don't go there it will take a while!!! read more

Loved the fruit puffs (they have a buy 4 for $5 special I think). Maple bacon do was average and unfortunately coffee tasted like airport lounge kinda watery. Wish they showcased one of the local grown coffees. read more

Popover - Puffs and donut - Bakeries Near Me - Hilo, Hawaii

I LOVE THIS PLACE! Love their pastries especially the mango and guava puffs! Their donuts are good too, but I like the puff better. As for food, the turkey avocado sandwich is the only one that I've tried so far, so I got nothing else to compare it with. But it is still so gooood! One thing to note though...the sandwich bread do come in a weird shape so it is a bit hard to take a bit from. For drinks, do they make awesome iced mocha. It is perfect amount of sweetness for me! Overall I would definitely recommend this place if you wanna have a quick lunch with coffee and dessert afterwards. read more

Popover - 6 donuts for $12.50 - Bakeries Near Me - Hilo, Hawaii

I've heard a nice morning stop opened up about a year and a half ago but never had the chance to check it out until recently. It's located in a random area next to Kum Yo's Okazuya around many automotive places on East Kawili Street. The location is relatively big with a parking lot shared by the other eatery. I got their breakfast popover sandwich because it tasted sooo good when I sampled some from a friend. Their popover was their sandwich base topped with their special sauce with potatoes on one side and scrambled eggs with Portuguese sausage, bell peppers, tomatoes on the other side. Yum! The sauce is actually to die for. I should have asked for extra. I also got their mango puff. DELICIOUS! I should have gotten more but by the time I was waiting for the sandwiches, all the puffs were gone. My friend got their ABC sandwich which was avocado, bacon, chicken, cheese with lettuce and sprouts. I didn't try it but smelled and looked soooo good. She also got the maple bacon donut and snickerdoodle. Said she loved them both too! The only downside I feel is that after letting our sandwiches sit out a bit (takeout), the popover started feeling a bit stale as I ate mine? Don't know if that's just how it is originally. Definitely will be back for their donuts and other pastries (and probably sandwiches). It's a quick place to grab some delicious food and pastries with coffee before starting the day! P.S. We went at around 8:30-ish on a Sunday and some of their bakery goods were already gone. Be sure to arrive early! read more

Wow!!!! If you haven't had a chance to try their breakfast popover, you should because it is great! So much flavor. The popover is as good as it gets. Then you add super fluffy eggs, breakfast potatoes, spices, an incredible sauce green onions red onions and bell pepper. Then don't forget to ask to add bacon. It all comes together wonderfully you'll see. Sounds like a heavy meal but it's not. Very satisfying. While you're there don't forget to grab a cup of coffee and some baked goods. The guava turnover is delicious! read more

Definitely get there early before all the doughnuts are gone. I tried the bacon maple doughnut and it was sweet and savory. I also tried the popovers. It kind of tastes like keto bread but interesting. The environment is set up in a cafe style. There are chairs to sit on inside while you wait for your order, but the tables are set up outside of the establishment. read more

Barbara was so nice! We talked for a bit while my sandwich was being made, got half dozen donuts and 2 of each puff pastry. Only had the Guava one so far, it was just the right amount of sweetness without being overwhelmed (for me anyway). Just moved back from Hilo recently and was excited to try this spot. Did not disappoint. Their sandwich was amazing! They ran out of Roasted Veggie (sandwich) so I got a turkey avocado minus the turkey. The bread was warmed, maybe even lightly toasted and SO soft. It was delicious! They had HUGE cookies... I mean like whatever you're thinking then make it bigger! Hahah I didn't get any. I already had enough food They had some coffee cake-like stuff also. She told me they DO cupcakes and cakes as well upon request. So good to note if you have a party coming up. All in all great spot, they have everything for a quick and great morning or brunch! Coffee & coffee style drinks, as well as other bottled drinks (monsters ect. ) , Food, and bakery items sweet and savory options! What more could you ask for?? read more

Absolutely delicious. This was my first time having a "pop over" sandwich. My lawd they were fantastic!! The donuts were fresh and soft. Customer service top notch. Everytime I'm in Hilo, this cute little spot will be my first stop. read more

The breakfast and lunch flatbreads are great! The coffee is good. There is always parking. Seems like a great atmosphere for a meeting, either a work or personal meeting. It is a bit warm though and could use air conditioning or fans to keep it cooler for the customers. read more

The popover sandwiches are magical. I was dreaming of them from the mainland between two Island visits. Delicious donuts and puffs. I highly recommend. read more

All I can say is WOW The puff pastries are so light and delicious... not too sweet but just enough sweetness and airy fluffy puff... I ordered 2 of each flavors. Then I ordered their avocado turkey sub. It looks like the buns are of the fluffy pastry it's was perfectly delicious read more

Popover - Puffs assorted - Bakeries Near Me - Hilo, Hawaii

Seemed like a limited selection when I came at 9am so perhaps all the good ones were taken by then but I got three donuts (oreos, glazed, and matcha) plus a triple coffee scone and a caramel iced latte. The winners, in my opinion, were the scone and the coffee. The scone definitely had the coffee flavor and was crumbly enough but not dry and very tasty with nuts throughout. The donuts were a bit of a disappointment and, while they were light, lacked something to make them less dry and bland. The Oreos one had more of a wet topping so that was the only one I could finish of the three. read more

Was in Hilo for work and spotted this place on my way to a meeting. Made a mental note to look it up and try it for breakfast the next day. Stopped in the next morning around 8 am, and browsed their wide array of baked yummies! Another customer walked in at the same time and he struck up a conversation. It was his second time there, so it was encouraging to me that they have repeat customers. I picked out a coffee and mac nut scone and a couple of mango pastry puffs to go with a hot coffee, and asked the cashier how long they've been open. Only 6 months so far! The scone had a nice coffee flavoring throughout and the crunch from the mac nuts helped to give some variety in texture. The mango puffs were a winner! Shared them with my boyfriend and we both liked the light, fluffy outside and the not-too-sweet middle. Next time I'm in Hilo, I plan to go back and try something else! read more

Apparently I forgot to leave a review when we stopped in a couple of months back. Popover is fantastic, premium coffee and flat breads that are out of this world. The coffee cake is something I still crave back here in oahu and the doughnuts are amazing. Well worth the visit! read more

Well, the popover was actually nice but the place is dirty ...the staff seems new and did not know how to serve us...we enjoyed the breakfast popover and the avocado one, but we could skip the pastries ... Anyhow, they do have potential but need some work on the place and staff in my view read more

My wife and I visited Popover for an early lunch while visiting our daughter in Hilo. What a quaint little treasure. The service was impeccable, and the food was just delicious. We highly recommend the Pastrami popover, Turkey Bacon and Creamcheese. Don't forget to grab an Iced Tea Chai Pumkin Latte on your way out !!! read more

Superb breakfast spot in Hilo! Really enjoyed the breakfast popover sandwich - with potatoes, sausage, veggies, eggs, sauce enclosed in a fluffy, airy popover, these are what my breakfast dreams are made of. The espresso scone was incredible as well while not being too sweet or buttery, pairing great with coffee. I found the puffs to be a little on the sweet side but the pastry itself was fluffy and yummy. Coffee was mediocre and a little too overpowered with milk. Highly recommend a stop here for breakfast! read more

Popover - Popover breakfast sandwich - Bakeries Near Me - Hilo, Hawaii

Great selection of tasty ono foods! Preparation is slightly slow, but this is made up by how ono it was.

Good food/Bad coffee This place has great food (popover Reuben is ono as they come) but their coffee is always terrible. Order a $4 cup of drip brew and it's a guaranteed to be cold. They don't have the right proportions for espresso drinks either so no matter what your order you invariably pay a premium price for a sub par product. read more

Yum. This place is close to shopping, it's perfect breakfast and to go sandwich before you head for the volcano. We got a few pasteries then ate them along the MANY STOPS along crater road. The mini turnovers were So good! Coconut, mango, apple and chocolate. Omg that coconut! Then a espresso scone with nuts?? Yum. Tastes like coffee in a cookie. And a creamsicle donut. Incredible. Sandwich we got Veggie popover and a ABT. I would get sauce on the side, There is a popover sauce they serve and I did not get. The ABT was so good! The veggie was good, just needed a lil something... idk what. Still very good... just some sauce on the side? The popover seemed overwhelming for the veggies. read more

Wanted to try and support local, came across this place and it's fairly new. They are located right across of Jeep dodge car lot with ample amount of parking spaces. You can dine in or take out. They just opened a month ago and let me tell you, they have an awesome breakfast sandwich which is cook to order. It's Very tasty and filling. Love the presentation. They also carry a variety of donuts you could order, from glazed to coffee cakes. We had the strawberry lemon coffee cake and it was humongous for 3.00. They also serve coffee. Which was fabulous Prices are not that bad and reasonable. Next time I'm here, I would love to try the flat breads read more

Stopped in on a rainy weekday morning and the staff were so patient and sweet to explain to us out-of-towners what was in the popover breakfast sandwich. We tried that and some donuts as well and everyone in my family agreed that this place was a hit! The breakfast sandwich is to die for and a generous portion. The donuts were each so unique and bursting with flavor without being too sweet. Plenty of indoor seating as well. I'll be dreaming of breakfast popovers! read more

I stopped in at 7:15am to get coffee and some baked goodies. The house drip coffee is good, no bitterness. Baked goods: guava puff, popover with lilikoi butter and lilikoi coconut donut. I was hoping that arriving just an hour after opening that I might get some really fresh baked goods, but I think all were made the day before. Nothing I got was even remotely warm like it was just made. So, while the flavors were great, it would have been 5 star if it had been fresher. Both ladies working were super nice and friendly, great customer service. The donut's lilikoi and coconut flavors were wonderful, not too much icing so the sweet didn't overpower the flavors. But the donut itself was pretty dry and stiff, I assume because it was close to day old. The guava puff was nice, not a real strong guava flavor, but the puff pastry was enjoyable. The popover was good, it had the eggy bread texture in the middle without being underdone or gooey. I definitely want to try one of the popover sandwiches. The lilikoi butter was awesome. I will definitely go here again to try some of their other food menu options, just wish it had been fresher. read more

Friendly accommodating service. Hearty breakfast serving portion. Ordered the breakfast popover without meat (you have 2 meat choices just didn't feel like having meat this AM) and no onion or peppers. Big popover which was delicious on its own however popover was split in half and one side was filled with scrambled eggs and the other with fried potatoes and tomatoes with a mustard/Mayo type sauce. Also ordered a large latte. The meal was delish and I could barely finish it. The pastries in the display case looked good maple bacon donut anyone? Cookies were the size of a small paper plate. Left with a very full tummy so guess I'll have to try the cookies and that donut for next time. There is no ambiance but who needs ambience when the food is so good. read more

Strange business model here. The baked goods are great and the service for those is great, but if you want a cup of coffee, it's a whole other story. They don't serve your coffee until there's nobody in the store ordering bakery goods. And then sometimes not any coffee brewed to have to wait for that. From a business perspective, coffee is one of the highest profit margins in the industry so I don't know why it wouldn't be more of a priority. So strange... read more

Nice space, staff is well trained friendly enough. Personally I didn't care for the scrambled egg and potatoes in the popover breakfast but it seems to be a very viable option for Hilo. Not as crowded as some. read more

Wonderful service and delicious, giant popover sandwiches. Loved this take on popovers, and the other pastry options were amazing, too. Wish I could have tried one of each! read more

Best coffee and donuts and pastries and sandwiches and flatbread in town. If you don't go to Popovers, you aren't doing it right. The puffs are amazing. Guava is my favorite but everything is excellent. The coffee is a grade above everyone else's. This sounds like I'm exaggerating about how good Popovers is, but I'm not. Go see for yourself. read more

Phenomenal! Popover sandwiches. What? Simply delicious and the people working there know cups not have been nicer
