Aloha Bread really does the mochi mochi texture well -- fluffy and soft with just the right amount of chew. It's hard to find bread that's this soft while still having that satisfying bite. I especially like it because it reminded me of Japanese bread. And Usually scones can be crumbly or overly sugary, but an anko (red bean) scone was not too dry and not too sweet:) Espresso $2.50 Chi sparkling: Lychee Fuzzy $2.50 Aloha bread: turkey and pesto $14.00 Matcha Red Bean Scone: $3.99
Love coming here cause it's so close by to my work. The peanut butter is delish and so is the salad dressing. Would highly recommend the lox bagel with everything bagel :) I like the female manager as she is friendly and easy communication! Inside is cozy and cute and they also sell yogurt and juices.
Service was quick & Friendly. The inside was clean and nice as well, I came on a Saturday around 12-1. There was about 4 other people aside from my friend and I. The matcha latte I had, I subsisted for oat milk. I think it tasted mostly of oat milk rather than matcha, my friend agreed. It was also on the sweet side if you prefer that. The sandwiches were good, the breakfast sandwich was warm. The chicken cranberry was a cold sandwich, both were toasted so it was nice. We preferred the breakfast one between them. The cranberry chicken sandwich tasted a bit too sweet, and didn't have that much flavor.
Cozy spot with great scones, sweet coffee, and easy parking Stopped by Aloha Bake House & Cafe and was pleasantly surprised! I ordered a large Latte Aloha and a blueberry cream cheese scone. The scone was served warm with a lovely texture, crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside. It wasn't overly sweet, and the blueberry flavor came through nicely. Definitely one of the better scones I've had. The Latte Aloha was a bit on the sweeter side, but the coconut flavor was distinct and enjoyable. If you like your coffee with a tropical twist, it's worth a try. Parking was a breeze, there's a lot right next to the shop with designated customer spots. Inside, they offer snacks, breakfast bentos, and even homemade dog treats for sale. There are a couple of small two-seater tables in the front of the shop if you want to enjoy your food there. My total came out to just over $12, which felt reasonable for what I got. Convenient location, good coffee selection, and a relaxed vibe. I'll definitely be back to try more of their menu!
Delicious Breakfast sandwiches and good mocha and green tea latte. More options for breakfast food items would be nice but happy with what we ordered. The service was quick but had a little wait. Lots of locals coming in. Downstairs area is small. You place your order to go or there is upstairs option to sit and enjoy your drinks and food. There is also a restroom located upstairs. Nice place to sit, relax with your friend, family or by yourself. I would come back here again when in Honolulu!
Aloha Bakehouse is a great local cafe and bakery! Parking here can be tough but luckily I was able to get a stall the past few times I was here. I mainly come here for one thing which is their tuna melt sandwich. It's simple yet delicious! The tuna is light and has a great fluffy/creamy texture and they put just the right amount of lettuce and tomato. I've tried some of their coffee drinks and matcha latte before and it was good! Kinda like your average cafe drinks but nothing super amazing. They also have really yummy blueberry cream cheese scones! I do like how they have an upstairs area which looks like a great place to study/do work. Very spacious and a lot of open tables but it can be hot since there's no ac.
I give this a 4 star rating because although the service was wonderful meaning they were able to substitute vanilla for lavender syrup in my matcha latte the pastries itself were dry. Very much Edible, yes. But so dry and cold. It didn't end up going well with my lavender matcha. Their matcha was delicious. No clumps and the syrup wasn't too heavy.
I ordered the Korean BBQ Chicken Salad and it was great. It came with so much chicken, so I scooped half of it off and saved it for left overs. The folks working were very nice. I went upstairs to study, and I loved the large space. There were many tables, chairs, and couches. There was also a bathroom upstairs. Everyone was very quiet and respectful, and there was some soft music playing.
This is quite literally my favourite place on the island when I want a coffee and somewhere to get work done. I got the Latte Aloha, which was more on the bitter side, but I like my coffee strong. There was also a nice hint of macadamia and coconut in my coffee which was delicious. My sister got the Green Tea Matcha Latte and it had a sweet light flavour to it. Probably not the best place to come if you are a matcha fanatic but it does the job. The last thing I got was the misoyaki salmon salad and I'm telling you this is the most SCRUMPTIOUS salad I have ever eaten. The salmon is cooked to perfection and melts in your mouth, and the dressing and cranberries add a sweet touch to the flavour. The nuts also give it a nice crunch which amplifies the whole flavour profile. We sat upstairs to do some work and it's just a beautifully decorated area. There are not too many outlets so I would charge beforehand. Overall, this place gets 5 stars because I always have a good experience here :)) amazing service and the sweetest workers!!
Got the jalapeño aloha bread, it was delicious. It wasn't too spicy, I liked the olives and the pepperoni in it. Cost about $10.
The aloha bread was the best thing out of what we ordered. The acai bowl was basic as was the blueberry scone. The matcha iced needed more matcha and the coffee was bitter. Also the guy making the coffee dropped the milk foam cup on the dirty floor and rinsed it briefly for 2 seconds before proceeding to froth the milk for my drink There is plenty of seating upstairs which is nice if you wanted to hang out with friends.
This little cafe/bakehouse is the perfect spot to grab a drink/meal/snack! They have a great menu offering a full selection of drinks, snacky foods (musubi, burritos), baked goods (aloha bread, scones), and full entrees (sandwiches, salads, plates). Service is friendly and fast. The downstairs area (main entrance) is where you order/pay/pickup your food, just outside there's a staircase leading up to the seating area which is a huge, beautiful room with lots of natural light, plants, and different sitting areas for chatting or working. It's really quite lovely. I tried their lox sandwich on a toasty everything bagel and it was delicious! Plentiful amount of smoked salmon and cream cheese, spinach, capers, on a very tasty bagel. I also had their iced aloha latte which was so refreshing and lightly sweet. I can't wait to visit again and explore their menu!
Came here early morning right after a Body Balance workout & it was a cute hole in the wall cafe. Everything on the menu & on display looked and sounded delicious so it was hard to make a decision. I ended up ordering an iced coconut mocha and a spicy tuna musubi. The prices weren't overpriced and the service was great. Very friendly and patient especially with coming for my first time I didn't know what to get. The iced coconut mocha was very good. Sweetened just right, and a hint of coconut.it was perfect for an early morning coffee. The musubi was delicious. Spicy enough to give that hint of spice, but not too spicy where my son really enjoyed it too. The taste of everything was YUM. I will definitely keep this place as my go to place. Also heard there's an upstairs cafe, so I can't wait to try it out one day!
It has been way too long since I've been here. I think it's because parking is a challenge. But lucky on a rainy day, I found a spot across the street. Friendly hello when I walked in. There were a few people ahead of me. One thing I remembered was the delicious scones! I ordered a blueberry one and a chocolate chip. Between the two, I liked the blueberry the best. I also ordered their signature Aloha iced coffee which was delicious! i will definitely be back! I want to get some of their bread! Mahalo Aloha Bakehouse! read more
This time, I tried a different salmon salad and it was 10/10 very good. The texture was soft, juicy, flavorful! The sauce also added a degree of flare to the flavor! It was the healthy meal I was looking for that day. I paired this with my usual pineapple smoothie, which is prepared by real fruit, and was not too sweet, which is how I prefer it (naturally sweet). The service as always is very smooth, and the ambiance is inviting and welcoming. It's a great place to study (as I have in the past) or merely socialize and/or relax. read more
Honestly just came here for vibes and scones lol. Scone was good and upstairs had tropical homey vibes. Was a bit hot tho bc only fans. Got vanilla macnut latte at 50% sweet. Was the right sweetness but espresso taste was lacking and expensive for a small. Parking was also atrocious (only street parking), had to park at Ward read more

Stopped at the Aloha Bakehouse Shop for the first time on a Friday during Winter Break, and it wasn't crowded at all. My friend and I arrived at around 11AM and stayed until closing. I go to a lot of coffee shops across the island but this is one is definitely made it to the top three. Friendly staff, good food, lots of table space and plenty seating/outlets. There's also extra cushions you can borrow if the seats get too stiff. Only con is that there wasn't AC and it did get a little warm, but I also really enjoyed the natural airflow/natural sunlight. Got a Matcha Chocolate Chip scone, Lilikoi Lemonade, and their sun-dried tomato & spinach aloha bread with Salami. All very yummy. I was full after the scone and ended up taking the aloha bread home. Still tasted amazing! read more
One of my go-to cafes to study & work from. They have plenty of seating with free wifi, outlets at some tables, and a bathroom. You can place your order on the ground floor and bring your food upstairs. The whole upstairs seating area is gorgeous - there's lots of greenery and it's open air and you can look down onto the street at some of the window tables. The matcha latte is on the sweeter side with a slight graininess to it. The scones are around $3.50 each and they have a nice caramelized outside and fluffy inside. The Aloha Breads are pretty big and stuffed. The workers are all super kind and helpful. They also recently opened a location in Kaimuki, next to Juicy Brew! read more
This place is a great find! Overall, the service, variety of drinks and food items, and ambiance is great! Upon arrival, you'll be greeted with a very welcoming and modest storefront. After entering, you can really feel that this is a local cafe (and who doesn't love to support local businesses). There was a large variety of food and drink options and a few options that you may not get at a typical cafe either i.e lychee iced tea or lilikoi lemonade! The service was quick, my friend and I got our food and drinks within 5-10 minutes. Afterwards, we headed up to their upstairs seating area (they do also have a few tables outside if you're looking to bask in some sunlight). The area is very unexpectedly spacious, filled with plants with natural sunlight seeping through the windows. There are plenty of seating options to choose from. It's also quiet and peaceful so it's perfect for studying! There's no AC but there are multiple ceiling fans and open windows for the breeze to come through. I think some of the tables had outlets available for use but it seems that most of them don't have so make sure to bring your devices fully charged! I ordered the meatlovers Aloha bread and a matcha latte and my friend ordered the lox salmon bagel and a yuzu iced tea. Their drinks seem to run a little on the sweeter side as both my friend and I thought our drinks were sweet but I prefer a sweeter drink whereas she prefers a more bitter tea so that is something to keep in mind while ordering your drinks! We both enjoyed the food items that we ordered. My only gripe with this location is the parking. There are a few stalls in front of the store but other than that, you're going to have to find street parking (which wasn't available when we went) or a parking lot elsewhere. Other than that, I definitely recommend this place and will be returning again! read more

Kind of hard to find parking nearby and expect them to be pretty busy on a Saturday morning! The ambiance upstairs was perfect for having a little alone outing with a book. Pretty quiet! The food and drinks took maybe 15 minutes after ordering. Sandwich was good the first time I had it and the second time it was really bland and I didn't finish it. read more
Such a cute cafe! Recently moved to the Kaka'ako area and found this gem. I love that you can grab a drink and a quick bite to eat . If you have some extra time to spare, you can enjoy your drink upstairs in their seating area. The room is verrryy spacious with lots of tables and chairs. It has everything you need to relax or study -- outlets, wifi, bathroom, even water. There's so much to choose from on their menu. I have a hard time deciding on what food item I want to treat myself to. So far I've tried their fried rice and ube cream cheese scone. Both were very yummy. They also have a wide variety of drinks on their menu. Their matcha latte and lychee iced tea is so good. I can't wait to try more of their drinks and yummy food! read more

I was craving for a scone. And I got three different ones. Yup, I like a variety. As you can see from my photo. A tiny slice of each for my breakfast. I bought a blueberry cream, banana cream, and strawberry white chocolate. All were very tasty but my favorite was the strawberry white chocolate. It was a blast of flavor and deliciousness. Aloha Bakehouse, I'll be back. read more

Came to this hole-in-the-wall coffee house for some quick breakfast and it did not fail to impress! I got a breakfast sandwich on an everything Bagel and it was great! It had ham, bacon, eggs and cheese which was a great combination. I also got the hazelnut iced coffee, which was good! The service was a little slow but I don't fault them as it was super busy! Not to mention there is seating upstairs so it's a nice quiet place to sit and work if you need too! I saw a few outlets as well which is always a plus! read more
