I've been wanting to come here for months! I finally had the opportunity to! I'm so happy I did!…read moreThere was so much to choose from-pastries and drinks! My hubby missed out! Great excuse to go again! There was a line, but it moved quickly. You could tell which items were popular cuz their spot was empty. However, they were quickly replaced. Everything was delicious!!! I did bring some items to share with coworkers. I bought my breakfast and lunch from this quaint bakery. It took me back to my visit to Japan! Loved it! Will definitely be back!!!

I needed to occupy myself after I dropped hubs off for his first cataract surgery…read more After doing some retail therapy at NR I had half an hour to spare. Hubs had to fast from 6 am for his 2 pm surgery so I thought he would probably be starving and would enjoy a delectable salt and butter roll from here. At $4.50 a piece I consider this a luxury for us. I found a close stall in the parking structure. A very cheerful polite male employee took my order. I had seen two occupied tables as I walked into the shop. Both had matcha drinks. Why not? I asked the young man assisting me, what's the best matcha drink? He said his favorite was banana matcha with extra banana foam. Okay I'll try it. He repeated it to the cashier. So popular there was a wait for beverages to be prepared. Soon enough mine was ready. I think Doc would enjoy this drink. This shop is a working bakery. Many yummy pastries displayed. Menu is posted high up above to choose from. Rather tiny shop with room for customers to stand in line to order and wait for drinks. Clean, busy with a few tables and chairs outside but pretty much in direct sun.

Delicious!!!! An absolute must if you're visiting Oahu!…read more We ordered the cinnamon & guava. Top tier!

This place is for sure overhyped. The malasadas themselves are VERY good. Hot, fresh, crispy on the…read moreoutside, soft and chewy inside, and the sugar coating is perfect. But the filled ones? Big letdown. The filling tasted like prepackaged pastry filling to me rather than something fresh and homemade. I tried the filled malasadas expecting them to be the best part, but I would much rather have the plain malasada. We were not impressed with the butter mochi, either. I wouldn't bother waiting in a long line but if there's no wait - grab an original.

The food here at Liliha Bakery was delicious! My family and I went for the first time on our trip…read morethere in June. We all got something different to eat, and shared a little bit to taste. We also got a few desserts to bring back home with us. I will be going back here on our next trip to Hawaii!

This place deserves nothing but 5 stars!! I think it was the best pancakes I've ever had. The…read morefrench toast, garlic fried rice, and of course the buttered rolls were all to die for as well. The curry was alright. The prices are great, I felt like they deserved to make what they were charging. There is plenty of parking. This is a bakery so you can just take a pastry to go or you can wait to sit down at the counter and order food to eat there. I'd definitely recommend doing both. If you go during off times you'll have a better chance of not needing to wait for a seat. Come here for the pancakes!!

Shop is local favorite! No frills, but the ladies are super sweet and ready to fill up your order…read more Go early for the wide selection. So many yummy choices. Favorites: banana fritters, glazed cinnamon rolls & the orange and strawberry malasada's! So many things to try, and I have no self control I end up with a box filled with goodies when I go, after telling myself just 3-4 items. Have fun and go get something yummy!

Love that they are open super early! Since Covid lots of bakeries don't open till later. Good place…read moreto stop before work to bring some goodies! Super good donuts too! They're known for their poi donuts but really like the other flavors too.. orange and strawberry. $1.55 each Their other donuts are good to from the plain glazed, banana fritter (a fav) , apple fritter, cream cheese cinnamon roll, there's just so many! The apple fritters are huge and only $2.01 each Put in your phone number for five star rewards and once in a while you get $3 off! Absolutely love this spot especially to give to people visiting Hawaii or to the flight attendants! Thank you for being open super early! And tons of parking open early in the am, during the days and weekends the parking lot can get busy!

The coffee was delicious, but the pastries were the star of the show. The black sesame kouign-amann was incredible and such a unique flavor, and the chocolate croissant was amazing too. Definitely one of the best pastry stops we found in Waikiki. Come hungry and get more than one pastry because choosing just one would be a mistake.

Without a doubt, this was the best cuppa coffee on the trip.Upon walking in, the place smelled amazing. The two of us ordered a black sesame latte, shared an affogato, and tried a Konawaena pour over (Kiwae honey, roasted macadamia, and milk chocolate) pourover. The affogato was amazing. I was on an affogato kick that whole trip and this place did it the best. If you're in the Waikiki area, it is well worth a visit to Kona Coffee Purveyors. You will not regret it if you're a coffee fan.

It's pretty nostalgic when you are able to take your baby to one of your favorite bakeries growing…read moreup I remember growing up and coming here with my mom to pick up an assortment of things. She would sometimes have ham rolls and raisin breadsticks waiting for us afterschool. My coworker said they have the best croissants on island. They are indeed very similar to those I've had in Paris. My favorites from Epi-Ya? The custard pudding! While plentiful in Tokyo, not very many establishments will make or sell custard pudding. Because of this, I would get one almost everyday when visiting Japan The bread is baked fresh daily and everything is much lower in price (compared to other bakeries) It's always busy, so that just goes to show that the community also enjoys this beloved patisserie. Thanks for reading my reviews! Let me know what I should try next!

I love the baked goods here! My favorites are definitely the onion bread and the ham and cheese…read morebread. They have a really good selection of savory breads, so this is a great spot if you prefer savory over sweet. There aren't as many sweet options though. It's also such an easy and quick grab-and-go bakery when you want something tasty without having to wait around.

STILL MY FAVORITE LOCAL-STYLE DIM SUM (MANAPUA) PLACE !!!…read more I don't think you'll go wrong ordering anything here. Try their Mai Tai Siu and Char Siu Siu. Did a DoorDash order and everything went smoothly.

On a Saturday morning took a drive out to China town from Ewa Beach for sum Dim Sum…read more My sister wanted to checkout another Dim Sum place, I had suggested this place instead. I remembered once a friend had gotten me some manapua and pork hash from here. Sing Cheong Yuan Bakery a store front for order and go. No indoor or outdoor seating. We arrived at about 8 am, there were a few people in line, it went quickly. The lady who helped me repeated my orders and got my orders correct. Very well organized and efficient service! My order box #1 2 steamed manapuas 2 baked manapuas 8 Pork hash 1 Rice cake Box #2 1 steamed Manapua 12 Pork hash 6 Half moon 2 Rice cakes 2 Red bean Mochi Let me say all of it was yummy! and if you like fresh & authentic tasting Dim Sum. I highly recommend this place. It was definitely worth the drive! Don't forget if you like the mustard dipping sauce you'll have to ask. Cost is .25 or .50 cents. I'm not sure exactly how this dipping sauce is made but it was a perfect mixture.

So far I've only tried the breakfast items here a few times. The breakfast sandwich is different…read morebut good. I think the meat changes but it's usually some slice of meat rather than a sausage or bacon and there's also cooked greens on there that are a little different. The croissant items I've had have all been really good. Today I tried the quiche and it was very good and had a really tasty croissant crust. The egg and ricotta in there was really creamy and custard like. Mushrooms were good but I wonder if this would be even better with Hamakua mushrooms? It would mesh well with their use of local ingredients. The one negative is that the $3.75 coffee was TINY. Granted if you eat there I think you can refill it but kind of a rip off if you're getting things to go. The meat is all pretty pricy but it's local stuff so that's cool. There's also some unique things that you probably can't find elsewhere. I was excited to see venison pastrami and venison liver mousse. Hoping to try some of that stuff soon!

My friend has me loving these pastries from local general store. I have been horrible with taking…read morepics but got to eat more of their delicious baked goods. Since it was their anniversary on Sunday, also got their celebratory funfetti cupcake which also like their baked goods did not disappoint. The croissant base of many of their pastries is flaky. When fresh it crunches with every bite that you take. This time around we had the cinnamon roll, mango danish which had a chocolate mochi filling, and their char siu bun. It's such a neat take to have char siu in a croissant. We are used to having it in the doughy bao bread but in a croissant, savory with a crunchy outside tastes so much better. I love sweet but this one wasn't overly sweet, who would have thought that mango and chocolate pair so well together. It's the summer months, fresh mango on pastries. It was the perfect ripeness. For the cinnamon roll, you honestly cannot forget get their cinnamon roll...It's flaky and again the frosting is not overly sweet. Can't wait to get another box of their pastries again soon.

I love Pipeline Bakeshops Malasadas! I have been to several Malasada places in Hawaii but | love…read morethere's the best for the following reasons: 1. the size of the malasadas: some restaurants tend to make their Malasadas smaller and when places do this it ruins the overall texture and quality of it. The bigger the malasadas size the more airy and fluffy and more bread layers that will be inside. 2. their malasadas always taste fresh and the same quality each time. 3. their malasadas don't feel oily or heavy at all Overall I would highly recommend this place for their Malasadas! I'm so happy to have found them. I can back multiple times on my trip. They also have other desserts too that I have yet to try. They have ice cream, cakes, and other desserts Also tip: if you are ordering a malasada also order a coffee or a matcha drink to go with it. The cinnamon sugar from the malasada just matches so perfectly with a drink this restaurant is also a nice place for walking! There's lot of stores and restaurants to walk around! I'm trying to remember but I think there was a book off that was not too far from here! If you either drive or maybe walk. Service: staff was super helpful and friendly while I was there. I was having an issue with my online order because my phone was being glitchy and they were so nice in helping :) Also wanted to note their branding is so cute!! They even sell merch items too

Review only based on the Malasadas. They are made to order so they come out fresh. They do not…read morecontain any fillings, so if you are looking for something Leonard's you may be disappointed. Haven't tried their other offerings, but will do so next time. Good location in Kaimuki, around other shops and restaurants. It is clean and bright inside. There isn't really anywhere to sit in the shop to eat, so you'll have to take it to go.

Brewed coffee was great not sour not bold very smooth. They give you complimentary toasted Hawaiian bread and home made jam which is lovely. We also picked some Chou buns and cranberry scones to go from the front which were so yummy. There are many seatings in and out and the service is friendly and fast.
