The sign on the Main Street advertising sourdough cinnamon rolls is what brought me in! The location is so centrally located for me so I was super excited to discover a bakery right off Waialae before the H1 on ramp. We purchased a breakfast Sando, a sourdough bagel, a cheddar, bacon and spring onion scone and of course a sourdough cinnamon roll. My husband added an extra egg to his sandwich and he was super impressed that they were able to fit it all on one English muffin! He was very happy with his sandwich and said it was incredible. The sourdough cinnamon rolls they selected to serve us was a corner piece which we don't prefer, they had a whole batch that looked fresh and we were the only customers so I'm a little disappointed that we didn't receive a superior piece. The flavor was distinctly sour which I loved and we were pleasantly surprised at how moist the roll was. The size was a little small for the price. The cheddar bacon spring onion scone was very salty, I don't think I'd order it again. I really enjoyed being able to see the baker working right at the front so I appreciated the atmosphere. read more

**LATE POST - visit was about 3wks ago on 01/09/26** Have never been in this place before, and will definitely not be back. Actually ordered lunch from a place a couple of doors down, but my husband wanted to check if this place had coffee while we were waiting for our order. As we entered, we were the only customers. There was one guy standing behind the register and a girl to the corner (looks like she was preparing something for baking). Both looked up at us, but neither said anything. One guy, who happened to walk up front from the back, as he seemed to be working hard carrying things back and forth, immediately said "Hi!" So that was nice! We looked at their pastry display. Not much available, then noticed there was a monitor above the counter with a list of some menu items, like sandwiches, which really sounded good, but by that point we were so underwhelmed by the service, we decided to leave. read more

I love sourdough! Sourdough bread fresh, Sourdough sandwiches toasted, Sourdough English muffins. Babes Bakery has all this, and more. This day visited their bakery at the foot of St Louis Drive with a few of my coffee pals. Always enjoy savory, the first thing I ordered was the cheddar cheese bacon chives scone. So decadently delicious. Got distracted by the kalamata olive foccacia. John was so kind to heat it up and bring it to our table with a bit of olive oil for dipping. Amongst our group we also had a number of breakfast sandwiches on sourdough English muffins, cinnamon rolls, and other pasteries. Looking forward to returning for the haupia poi bread which was out on the day we visited, the amazing looking mooncakes Yelp Elite Jackie K raves about, or another sourdough treat. And yes, I couldn't resist and took home a loaf of jalapeño and cheese sourdough, fresh out of the oven... delicious fresh and toasted! Thank you John; thank you Angela...and all the attentive staff, for a most memorable morning at Babe's. Small seating area with four small tables. The owners were happy to allow us to put the tables together so our group of 9 could all sit together. Service top notch. Gift cards and cute cotton bags for carrying your treats also sold here. Can't make it to Kaimuki? You can also find Babe's at the Hawaii Kai Farmers Markets... one on 2nd Saturday and one on 3rd Saturday..! read more

My husband and I stopped by on a Friday, 1/9/26, at 10:45a. We have been frequenting Babes Bakery since we first saw them on a News feature in September 2025, emphasizing baking with sour dough. We always pick up their sour dough Cinnamon Rolls and Sour Dough Bread. The Cinnamon Roll has a sweet and rich flavor with a slight sourdough note. The long fermentation gives the dough a more complex, almost buttery-bready taste. It is very good. The Sour Dough Bread has a mild tang to it. We love the texture and taste of their freshly baked bread. I also picked up their blueberry lemon muffin that has a subtle tang. It tastes like a regular muffin to me. It pairs well with their freshly made coffee. We also picked up their muffins and will be trying them soon. Their other baked sour dough goods that I've had before were their chocolate chip cookies with potato chips and a brownie. They were tasty. The cookies tasted like normal cookies and the brownie had a hint of the sour dough flavoring that appealed to me. Additionally, they also have sandwiches. On another occasion, we ordered the pastrami with sour kraut on sour dough sandwich breads. We enjoyed it as well. We will definitely be back to Babes Bakery. The owners are very friendly and helpful and the sourdough baked goods are a hit with us. read more

A double update. 10/9/25- I ordered and picked up ten rainbow layered mooncakes for my Dad's birthday! I also picked up a cinnamon bun and more. Everything was delicious and freshly baked! I had a few extra mooncakes that I shared with friends! Service is always with a smile here. Sadly the mooncakes are seasonal! 5/5 stars. 11/2/25 update: I went to the Mom Made Market at Kahala Mall with Yelp Elite and All Star buddy Irene M. Babe's Bakery had a table at the Market. Fresh baked sourdough bread was just delivered and we both picked up a loaf. So many people were there buying the baked goods. It was crowded and noisy lol. At home, I toasted and buttered a slice of this gorgeous bread. I added fresh sliced avocado and tuna with celery, capers and a little mayonnaise on top of the toasted sourdough! Absolutely knockout delicious! The bread was flavorful, crunchy crust and chewy goodness all at the same time! Epic lunch here. Highly recommend picking up a loaf of the sourdough bread! Next up, I'll pick up tomato soup and I'll toast a slice of the sourdough bread to dip in the soup! Salivating? Yum! read more

One of my Yelpie friends got me this colorful moon cake as she calls it. It was colorful on the outside with lot of layers and shaped like an egg. It was so good. Inside was a salted egg yolk with a thin layer of red bean paste covering it. Then, it was surrounded by the beautiful colored layered shell on the outside. I would go and get some myself, but was told that it's seasonal only for the mid autumn festival. read more

"This is exceptional" is what I said to my husband while we ate our brunch in the car. Cute small shop with a few tables to sit and eat or wait for your food while you try not to order a second round of treats. Service was great, love to support local when we can. The owner is sweet and came out to give my husband the food in a bag which I saw her do for other customers as well. Was a rough morning and this meal made us both smile and eat while nodding our heads which means yum, yup, it's good stuff. Food is super fresh and made to order. Quick too for the quality you get. We got the Hot Pastrami Sandwich and the Breakfast Sando and both were literal perfection. Bread was delicious, toasted extremely well without burning, and the filings of both sandwiches were generous, seasoned well, and the proteins were cooked the way it ought to be! For the Breakfast Sando, the English muffin was yummy, a nice texture and flavor, and the bacon was crispy which was amazing with the soft/medium scrambled eggs and cheese! The pastrami was juicy and not overly spiced and the bread didn't overpower the sandwich and remained crispy through the whole meal and never got soggy or mushy! We also bought a package of the Chocolate Chip Cookies with Potato Chips and I can only imagine how good that'll be. I've been waiting to find a place like this and so glad we found parking and stopped by today. Made a tough day a little better. We will absolutely be back!!! Can't wait to try the grilled cheese with tomato soup. Definitely will try their Speciality Sourdough and Sourdough Cinnamon Roll soon too! read more

Babes Bakery - Breakfast Sando, Hot Pastrami Sandwich, and a package of Chocolate Chip Cookies with Potato Chips. - Bakeries Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I was reading Yelp Elites Jo Y & Rod's reviews before I arrived. I had to buy and try what they mentioned. Prolific Yelp All Star Elite Jackie K and I planned to meet here today, 9-18-2025 and I wanted to be prepared. There's two rows of limited parking in the front at a shared lot and I saw a couple of stalls on the side/ back of their shop. If you're not a Townie like me, it's on the corner of St. Louis Drive and Waialae. I couldn't see the shop from the street based on the Yelp directions. Look for Von's Chicken and Nola Cafe- turn in there. It's amazing how the husband and wife team and one visible employee have a well run bakery with items in their display cases, cold bottled beverages, cookies on another wall of shelving and made to order coffee. We witnessed sour dough loaves being prepped in rattan baskets, always busily working on something. Jackie and I bought the cutest mini rainbow moon cakes and traditional tiny moon cakes in the perfect gift giving containers plus other things like chippy cookies and more to eat there. The seating inside is for the rare customers who come to catch up and share stories like we did. Other customers entered, picked up their goodies and left. It's very quiet in there. I'm sure they could overhear everything we talked about from our health, trips, airport delays, food and more. Thanks Jackie for suggesting to meet up here and giving me the run down of what was limited and introducing me to the owners. I'm going to taste all the items I bought to take home with the intention to share with hubs. See the photo with jack lantern Kuromi what I bought. read more

I was looking for freshly made sourdough bread and stumbled upon this bakery. The staff was really nice and helpful when I asked about their baked items. I initially came here for sourdough bread, but I ended up getting my bread, focaccia bread, tiramisu, chocolate chip cookie and a sourdough cinnamon roll. I'm going to try the sourdough bread and focaccia bread later, but the cinnamon roll was absolutely delicious! It had the perfect amount of sweetness and the roll itself was soft in the inside and had a nice slightly crusty exterior. The tiramisu was also delicious, and had the perfect amount of sweetness to it. I'm definitely going to come back for other baked items and more sourdough bread. read more

Babes Bakery was disappointing. The inventory was very limited when I arrived, and when I asked about a specific bread (on a Saturday), the worker couldn't answer my questions and had to go in the back to ask the owner. When the worker returned, he told me that I could place an order and pick it up the following Friday, six days later, which felt pretty absurd. What also stood out was that the owner never even came out to speak with me directly, despite this being such a small bakery. On top of that, the parking lot is awkwardly located on the corner of a very busy intersection. The bread I ended up getting was just okay, and overall it wasn't worth the drive from Mililani into town. I highly doubt I will ever go back there. read more

I love Babes Bakery! The haupia poi banana bread is so delicious! I don't normally like banana bread but someone got it for the group. I didn't try it at first but was going to take some home for my husband. I realized it said haupia poi and it just sounded so interesting so I decided to try it just to see. Im so glad I did! It was so moist and tasted really good. It's not too sweet but just perfect. I went back as soon as I could to get some for the rest of my family to try. Everyone loved it. The owners are so sweet as well! Everything is fresh and it was still hot when we bought it. I love it and will come back for more banana bread and to try some of their other creations that look amazing as well :) read more

Babes Bakery - Minis and regular haupia poi banana bread - Bakeries Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Super friendly proprietor. Helpful and patient. Moist delicious banana poi bread. Sourdough cinnamon rolls have more bite and chew (a good thing!) than regular. Bacon cheese scone more dry like proper scone and blueberry scone more moist closer to muffin. Both good and up to the individual's preference. The baked goods are warm first thing in the morning! I think the BPB is the best deal. Came here early in the morning on a few days to pick up pastries for several meetings. They open early which is great since some other bakeries open at 8 (!!) This is definitely the worst parking lot in town but in the morning was empty and not a problem. Overall would go here again early in the morning on the way to work to pick up pastries for meetings. read more

Ordered a sourdough cinnamon roll. First bite and my body ascended into heaven. Also got the everything focaccia. Will be back here.

On the corner of Waialae Avenue and St. Louis Heights, it is where Kuhio Grill relocated briefly before shutting down around the pandemic. This is a small, local owned business - the owners are a nice couple. I first visited on a recommendation. Entry is from Waialae Ave. but there are also stalls accesible via St. Louis Ht...where Nola Cafe is situated. Babes Bakery is a fairly new business that I've only visited twice. I believe they are known for their cookies, sourdough breads, and PHB (Poi, Haupia, Banana) Bread. Cookies vary in texture from soft-n-crunchy to crisp & crunchy to crisp exterior with a chewy middle. I think I had a Macnut Chocolate Chip Cookie and Blueberry & Lemon Scone on my initial visit. I have a soft spot for scones, dry or soft. And both were excellent. Today, I tried their Miso Nutty Cookie - a sweet and savory cookie with peanut butter to complement the miso. Also, enjoyed their Sourdough Cinnamon Roll which is another successful combination of both sweet and tangy. I try to go early - hours are 600a till 200p , except Tuesdays and Wednesdays - as traffic and parking can be issues. I have to try their PHB Bread next. read more

There are two reasons to visit: 1. Crispy cookies!!! FINALLY. Someone bakes totally crisp cookies. The chocolate mac nut cookies are addictive while the "chippy" AKA potato chip and chocolate chip cookies are pure crack. 2. Fresh made sour dough English muffins. Although not made the right way with two layers that you peel apart for maximum surface area for toasting, this one requires a bread knife, they are excellent. Great chew, nice fermented notes, perfect for a home made brekkie sandwich. The sourdough bread is good with plenty of moisture and a chewy crumb though it lacks the crisp European crispness. All good, makes for easier to eat sandwiches. Limited selections but what they offer is fresh. Very friendly husband and wife team. Keep in mind, these are artisnal products. Six cookies for $10. Four English muffins, $8. Sourdough loafs, $10 as of this writing. Definitely worth a try. read more

Babe's Bakery is tucked away on the corner of Waialae Avenue and St Louis Drive. I saw a lot of social media about this small Bakery and decided to check it out. They're open from Thursday - Sunday 6am - 2pm, we were out early in the morning so the worked out perfectly. I saw on a post that they sold sourdough bread and I wanted to get a loaf to eat. They have cookies, muffins, small individual cheesecakes and other pastries, but I was there for the bread. It was a nice size loaf, beautifully baked for $10. Love the top crust and design, it made for a perfect picture. Yes the picture is real. It was really moist and delicious with some olive oil, also toasted it up for a sandwich later. This Bakery knows it stuff, I'll definitely be back to try more of their baked goods. Oh Ya they serve chili! Have to eat that too! read more

Cute little bakery run by husband and wife. FANTASTIC baked goods. I don't typically eat sweets in the am, but the smell of their cinnamon rolls convinced me. So happy I did, tangy sourdough, sweet and wonderful. I got a great cup of coffee, I drink mine black and a bit of a snob, it was worth coming. Lastly, the breakfast sandwich was simple and executed perfectly. Thanks! I'll be back read more

The sourdough is the best I tried compared to others. Crunchy in the outside and soft inside. A must try!

Visited Babe's Bakery.....bought a sour dough bread, cinnamon roll, mac nut cookies and mini poi haupia bread. The service was fast and friendly and a nice cute little bakery atmosphere. The parking is not easy, thankfully my husband was driving....my parking skills are not good. read more

You can find Babes Bakery right behind Nola Cafe on Waialae Ave across from City Mill. We stopped in to check it out. Prices are very reasonable. I had to try the chocolate chip cookies with potato chips. It certainly satisfied my craving for something sweet, salty and crunchy. We were only there for a few minutes but was greeted and helped by the super nice guy behind the counter. Nice quiet place to sit down, have a snack and drink and do homework as I saw some university students doing. read more

Babes Bakery. No, its name is not intended as a slang for an attractive woman. Instead, when you get to the kindest couple that owns this bakery, you'll find out that "babes" means baking in small portions, like cookies, which the owner does from living in Hong Kong. Providing artisanal sweets and sourdough breads, Babes Bakery started in Nov. 2020 by taking part in the Koko Marina crafts fair in HI Kai and then expanded via various farmers markets and pop-up events on Oahu. Growing in popularity, it opened its brick and mortar business on 8/3/24 at the bottom of St. Louis Heights in Kaimuki. Owners John and Angela Osorio bring with them many years of hospitality management and baking experience. With a Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management, focusing in Culinary Arts/Food Service Management from the Johnson and Wales University in Rhode Island, John gained years of work experience in the hospitality and culinary arts at Westin Hotels, Morimoto Waikiki, as well as the Shangri-La Hotels and Ritz Carlton in Hong Kong. While in Hong Kong, John met his future wife, Angela, who baked sweets and cookies for hotel restaurants. John bakes his popular sourdough bread with pretty designs on the crust with flavors of classic, Kalamata olive, cheddar, roasted garlic and chili, and focaccia. Wife Angela is busy baking her cookies of double crunchers, mac nut choc chip, miso nutties, triple choc cheesecake, salted caramel mochas, chippy, and gingerbread. And together, they churn out sourdough cinnamon rolls, guava bars, haupia poi banana bread, cheesecakes, and even whole pies. They also offer simple hot breakfast and lunch items, e.g., chili con carne with munchies, focaccia pizza, grilled cheese sandwich with tomato soup. We had the following: * Classic sourdough. Using 1/2 whole wheat flour and 1/2 enriched bread flour, there is a chewy consistency that I really like. I also enjoy having it being toasted, which gives a chewy crunch. As an added touch, John imprints fancy designs on the crusts of bread loaves to make them his signature breads. These designs are very appealing to the eye! * Cinnamon roll. I really enjoyed this delicious roll that was so soft and fluffy! Just the right amount of cinnamon, and the frosting appeared to be butter/cream cheese mixture that is so flavorful! The roll and frosting were not overly sweet and very delicious! * Cheddar/bacon muffin. This savory muffin had the perfect ratio of cheddar cheese and bacon bits that makes a delicious treat! Perfect if you're into savory treats! * Haupia poi banana bread. A delicious banana bread, with the bananas adding sweetness, the haupia providing a rich creamy texture, and the poi making it moist. * Chippy cookies. Super ono crispy cookies with choc chips and large bits of Ruffles potato chips make this my favorite and is so addictive! Sweet and salty! * Chinese New Year almond cookie. Hong Kong style butter cookie with a slight amount of almond flavoring. The bright red square cookie is decorated with gold trim and Chinese lettering. This crispy cookie is very delish, but too pretty to eat! (The round almond cookie with the red dot in the middle is a local thing and not found in Hong Kong, according to Angela.) Owners/bakers John and Angela are so very welcoming and friendly that you will enjoy visiting their bakery. They will happily chat with you, as I learned how passionate they are of their business. They continue to offer new items in limited quantities on unannounced dates, e.g., guava bars, brownies, muffins, tiramisu, carrot cake, black forest cake, and even spam musubi in sourdough bao bun. Special items are baked for holidays, e.g., stollen and gingerbread for Christmas, and meringue cookie flowers for Mother's Day. The small bakery is clean and bright, with wooden shelving to showcase their baked goods. They also have a refrigerated display case. Baked items are enclosed in pretty packaging or small boxes with partial cellphane so that you can see how they look. There are a couple of small tables for breakfast/lunch dine in. Hours of operation are Thurs to Mon, 6a to 2p. Babes Bakery is located in the same complex and Vons Chicken and behind Nola Café at the bottom of Kaimuki. Somewhat hidden, enter the parking lot from Waialae Ave. after passing Nola Café. Free parking in stalls in this private lot that is shared with other businesses. During the busy lunch hour, the small parking stalls and how they're angled make it difficult to get in and out of the parking lot. After getting to know owners/bakers John and Angela, I can certainly say that the name Babes Bakery is not how it's used in the US, but rather, the portioning to make small items as how it was used in Hong Kong. I love what I've tasted thus far and look forward to trying different baked goods that are offered. Wishing John and Angela much success with their bakery! Support local! read more

First time here for the wife and I, they specialize in sourdough breads. So we came to try the cinnamon rolls, and guava bars! We also got a Oreo cheesecake and raspberry pistachio bars as well! Service was great as we were greeted right away and ordered. The place does not have indoor seating so we grab to take home, but it's very clean and organized inside. The parking lot is super small tho and I get that's why I seeing a lot of cars backed into there stalls. Other than that this place makes great food and next time we will be back to try other goodies! read more

Breakfast in Honolulu, Hawaii... After seeing Brian M.'s photos and reading Nat N.'s review, I made it a point to go to Babes Bakery. This small business began with Farmer's Markets and craft fairs. Babes Bakery - on the corner of Waialae Avenue and St. Louis Drive (across from City Mill) - is Angela and John's new brick and mortar... with free shared parking! CONGRATULATIONS! John and Angela are a cheerful, friendly couple! John is the baker, while Angela is the cashier, cook, server, and all-around worker. Actually, on my 2nd visit, John brought me my Breakfast Sando on a big plate... like those fancy restaurants that serve "small food"... LOL! Knowing that I had to pace my eating on my first visit, I just got a Bacon Cheddar Muffin and a watermelon prebiotic soda. I enjoyed that savory Muffin a lot because... bacon... and cheddar... and the muffin had a moist, satisfying chew! Irene M. was smart about choosing the table with the best lighting and The view of the baker in action! It was fascinating! I really had wanted the Breakfast Sando... that's why I went back the very next day. That Sando was calling me! It was worth going back! Because... Bacon! And the Bacon was CRISPY... without my having to ask! The Cheddar cheese added a creamy kick while the eggs weren't dry! The English Muffin had a toasty crispness! Yesss!!! It was perfect! Now, I'm hearing the Avocado Toast calling me... And the sourdough focaccia! I'll be back soon! P.S. when you go, check out the cookies that are ready for gift-giving! There's also merchandise and cute Haupia Poi Banana breads. They're in a mini pan - great for party favors! read more

Good Morning... Craving something sweet...something savory Babes Bakery has that and more. Nadine C has suggested this place and thought I'd be the perfect place to start our day. Located right at the start on Waialae in the former Kuhio Grille location where it shares space with Nola Cafe, OMG and a couple others which makes parking is tight so getting here early like we did does make it easy to navigate. Walking in you immediately get the friendliest greeting which is a delight first thing in the morning and this cozy spot has a display case filled with Cheesecakes, Guava Bars along with some grab and go items like Haupia Poi Banana Bread, Muffins, and a bunch of cookies but what I really wanted was sourdough but it wasn't ready so we decided to get something simple Nadine got a savory muffin, I decided to get something different which was a cinnamon roll which you can can get it warmed up, which is a very nice option. It's nice that they also provide three tables. If you choose to enjoy your baked goods there as we did watching the baker prepare the sourdough and English muffins for proofing... now how cool is that! Thank you! read more

The haupia poi banana bread does not miss. Wow! So tasty! I purchased a large loaf ($8) and a mini loaf ($3) and it was so good. The haupia is subtle but adds a nice coconut flavor to the bread. The poi is more of a texture component. The bread is so moist and flavorful. It almost has a hard time staying together because of how soft it is, which is amazing!! Also enjoyed the sourdough cinnamon roll. Very delicious place! They are small, so options can be limited. Parking is available and less crowded in the AM when the other restaurants are a little less occupied. read more

I somehow noticed this bakery while i was in the parking lot as i was leaving a new cafe that just opened up in the same complex. I quickly did a search through instagram and yelp and saved them for a future visit as it was nearby and walkable from my house. Im not quite the snacker and person that normally eats desserts, but i noticed that they also had a savory menu so i definitely wanted to try them out! You can either order in person or online through their website which might be a good option since parking is limited and you could probably just grab and go if its around the afternoon time. I was highly debating on getting all three items during my visit (grilled cheese, tuna melt, and chili) but i knew it would be too much food and i was heading to other places that day too. I opted for the grilled cheese/soup combo instead and will make the trek back another day. I luckily found parking and ran in (thank you for letting me bring in simba for a bit too) Service was really pleasant and the food came out quick. The food was really good and i cant wait to come back to try other things! read more

Wanted to take a treat to my aunty and found this one man bread shop on Yelp. It's located across from City Mill on that weird corner of eateries. John specializes in sourdough -plain, cheddar, pepper and garlic. He starts at 3:00am to create his artisanal breads. You can tell he puts his heart and soul into his breadmaking. He even carves cool pepper designs in his sourdough by hand. I love sourdough but I was even more drawn to the special ulu brioche that he mixed by hand. Ommmg! Loved the texture and subtle smoky flavor. So good! I also grabbed a bag of chocolate chip potato chip cookies called "Chippy", which I have yet to try. Will go back for the sourdough next time ! read more

Stopped by today and picked up matcha scones, bacon onion cheese scones, gf chocolate chip cookie, and mooncakes. I'm not sure if the mooncakes are limited pastries but they are a MUST. So delicate and tasty. The bacon onion cheese scone was also very delicious! Nice ratio of bacon and the scone was soft and tender. I wasn't the biggest fan of the gf chocolate chip cookie, but only because I have never had anything gluten free before and am picky. I gifted the other pastries and everyone loved them! There are so many other items to try so I'll be back! I've also had their sourdough loaves before which were also amazing! It's nice that this parking lot is pretty empty in the mornings when they are open :) also the sweet owner was very welcoming and gave my puppy a biscuit read more

"I second that!" Crispy vs chewy- aye to the crispy. Rod U and others have raved about this little bakery at the foot of St Louis Heights. In particular, like Rod, their crispy cookies ate truly crispy- and if you prefer crispy to chewy (like we do) this is the place to try. Their crispy chocolate chip w/mac nut is in a class by itself. They are on the pricier side but definitely worth it. One of the few chocolate chip cookies that have it all together in terms of taste, sweetness and crunch- the perfect package. Their other offerings are great too, the poi banana bread is delicious with a warm beverage. Although parking can be a little problematic, it is available and worth the effort for their goodies. read more

Babes Bakery offers sourdough bread, cookies, and various fruit bars that you can order online in advance.

A small little hole in the wall bakery that offers unique sourdough creations, specifically their sourdough cinnamon rolls. I don't know what it is, but their cinnamon rolls are definitely the best I've tried from any bakery. I don't know if it's because it is made with sourdough or if it's truly made with love, but it just hits different. Try it out for yourself. I'm definitely interested in trying the other baked good creations, as I'm sure they are just as good as their cinnamon rolls. The husband and wife are extremely friendly, too. So, if you are in the area, come check them out and support a small business! read more

Great food, warm and cozy vibes. Owners are a family and they're good at what they do

The classic sourdough: absolutely superb. Three ingredients: flour, water, and salt. A perfect balance of softness and chewiness with just that rare and sublime long touch of gentle sourness at the end. Earthy and heavenly at the same time. I recommend trying it just by itself first to appreciate its texture and complexity. Thank you for keeping up the art of bread baking. You make the world a better place. read more

Their haupia poi banana bread is sooooo good! They made minis for our event that were so cute. I will be back!

I heard on social media that a new bakery opened up, and of course you know I had to go. The things that caught my eye were the sourdough and the focaccia! It was pretty cool to see that the bakers bake by the register area. Anyways, I got the everything seasoning focaccia and it was SUPER good. I loved the fluffiness of it and had the perfect amount of seasoning. Even after a day, if you were to put the focaccia in the oven and warm it up with olive oil *chefs kiss*. I'll definitely come back to try the sourdough! read more
