    Drove to Hawaii Kai to pick up some scones for a get together. This shop was previously located in Kailua. We arrived at about 9:30 They still had a good selection scones. The owner Jessica recognized my wife and had a friendly chat. I'm not much of a scone eater, My wife loves them. Enjoy

    We took a drive to this place to buy scones for friends. She was located in Kailua but now her shop is in Hawaii Kai right across Costco tires and diagnostic lab. Walked in and the staff was very friendly. I told them I wanted 2 boxes of six assorted scones. Was so much to choose from my eyes were big. I even bought some for us. The owner Jessica came out and I was talking to her and she remembered us from Kailua. That was nice. Her scones are very good and delicious.

    What a cute cafe in Hawaii Kai! I had a friend visiting from the mainland. I had a lot of places I wanted them to sightsee on the east side. We needed some morning energy and saw that Buts & Bites Cafe was a great local treat in the area. Local and family owned, this cafe was a great hole in the wall find. The owner was so lovely! She explained how she made the treats every morning fresh. I loved her passion for what she does. Service was friendly and efficient. Highly recommend this cafe if you're in the area. Support local!

    Bits and Bites Café in the HI Kai Towne Center is known for its wide variety of scones with unique flavors, such as lilikoi, ube, matcha, black sesame, kalamansi, salted caramel, and more. It also offers specialty coffees, teas, and other baked items, such as Japanese and Basque cheesecakes. The owner of Mama' Nita Scones that was established in 2019 and located in Kailua, retired in 2024, and a new owner who had a passion for baking, Jesssica Cai, took over the business. Jessica renamed the business to Bits & Bites Café, and moved to HI Kai with its soft opening on 8/18/24, while offering the same scones and also her own scone creations, hot/cold coffee, tea, cocoa, lilikoi soda, and fresh fruit teas. Her scone creations were highly praised for their quality, texture, and unique flavors. I tried the strawberry and lilikoi scones and enjoyed that real strawberries and lililkoi juice that were used in baking process. While the scones were on the smaller side, you could taste the authenticity of the fruits, the firmness and crunchiness of the outside, and its moistness and dense interior, without being overly sweet. The scones were tasty; however, I found the scones to be pricy at about $6 each. The higher price may be attributed to Jessica's hand-mixing of every scone and the use of high-quality ingredients. Popular flavors sell out quickly. Online ordering the day before or call-in-orders can assure you of specific flavors that you want. Jessica not only bakes everything on premises, but also personally handles the selling of the scones in her shop. She was friendly and enjoyed chatting while sharing her passion of her scones. I had planned to try and order one scone, but her sales talk tried to convince me to buy two scones instead, and which I did. Hours of operation are: Tues to Fri, 7a to 3p; Sat 8a to 4p; Sun 8a to 1p; Mon closed. Located across from Costco and next to Diagnostic Lab in the former Taco Del Mar spot, free parking in the private lot is available that is shared with other businesses. It may be difficult to find parking when Costco is open. The store is clean and small, as it is take-out only. While the scones are flavorful, I am in no hurry to rush back to purchase more due to my perceived value of the scones based on the high costs. I'm happy for Bits & Bites Café for its success over the past 1 1/2 years and wish them continued success for many more years.

    SUPPORT LOCAL FAMILY OWNED BUSINESSES! Wonderful customer service, quick in and out QUALITY coffee and drinks. I don't even like scones unless it's from England because elsewhere they're dry. Here it's worth coming for. Milk alternates, almond milk my choice.

    The Black Sesame scone is good!

    I love that Bits & Bites has moved to Hawaii Kai. Their previous location in Kailua was out of the way for me. The new shop, across Costco, is everyday convenient. These scones are nice sized. The exterior is firm and crumbles slowly, and most of them have a pretty piped glaze. The inside is moist without being wet. I can enjoy these with a warm or cold beverage - and yes, scones are better enjoyed with a beverage. If you want to give someone a nice morning surprise, Bits & Bites Cafe is open at 7:00am. And they have a box that will hold 4-6 scones. A little something for everyone.

    Cheesecake

    Awesome service. Love that she makes things pure and simple, healthy for her family. Flavors are wonderful! So wonderful that I can never choose just 1 or a few. I always walk out with way too many scones. The drinks are excellent too. My fav is her savory scones.

    Salted caramel scone

    Stumbled across while heading to Costco. They are directly across the parking lot of Costco. Lots of parking. A very small hole in the mall (wall) haha. Scones were good. Cheese cake was also good. Maybe I'm not a big scone and cheesecake fan but I (and this is just me) thought is was kinda dry. I guess all scones are generally dry. My coffee drink was amazing tho. I finished the coffee before I could finish the scones and cheese cake. The service was great. They were very helpful and patient to explain all the flavors they had. Mahalo Bits & Bites Cafe

    Hawaiian honey latte
    Jason F.

    I stopped by here yesterday morning for my morning coffee. While traveling we try to hit up a new local coffee shop every day and on this morning it happened to be Bits and Bites Cafe. This shop is located in a strip mall right off Keahole Street. The inside of the shop was clean and brightly decorated but a bit smaller than I was expecting. Even so, they had a display case filled with a variety of scones and a coffee bar in the back. After looking over the menu I chose an iced Hawaiian honey latte along with a lilikoi scone while my dad went with a salted caramel scone. Our order was ready within about five minutes and we were quickly on our way. I first tried the lilikoi scone and really enjoyed it. It had a nice sharpness that was balanced with just enough sweetness to keep it from being overpowering. My coffee was good as well. The coffee itself was deep and rich and while I picked up a bit of sweetness at the start, the Hawaiian honey really came through on the finish. My dad also really enjoyed his salted caramel scone. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. We both enjoyed our scones and I thought my coffee was solid as well.

    Scones are probably one of my fave things, so couldn't resist checking this place out. Arrived at around 9:30am on Sunday and some items were already sold out. Started off with an iced Tiramisu latte - yum! We were just going to order a couple of scones but ended up with a box of 6 because we wanted to try so many of them. Ordered lilikoi cream cheese, guava cream cheese, jalapeño cheddar, earl grey, matcha white chocolate and coconut. All of the favors came through for each of them but my faves were the guava cream cheese and coconut. Kiddo's was the earl grey and hubs liked the jalapeño cheddar. The owner was friendly. So many other things we wanted to try like the cheesecake and frozen bites. We'll be back to try more.

    This place is a small shop we were directed to almost immediately after arriving in Hawaii! These scones are AWESOME-- great texture and flavor, and boy are they popular! They sell out of some flavors as early as 8am sometimes, so we hauled ourselves here twice as early as possible to get scones of all flavors for everyone! Choc chip is very popular amongst my family. Others we ordered twice/really liked and would get again: banana choc chip, black sesame, ube, blueberry, & lemon. I've also heard the lilikoi is amazing! The service was prompt and all the scones were handled carefully so we could tell everything apart when we got back. I do think it's a steep price: $5.95/scone is a lot, but it IS hawaii, so I can't be too surprised ‍

    The first time we had the basque cheesecake (guava), I split one with my husband, who's not much of a sweets person. He ate his half and was just staring at my half that I hadn't eaten yet. "Was it ok?" I asked. "Might have been the best cheesecake I've ever had," he grumbled. Welp, now we're back for more. All loaded up, and we are NOT sharing The ube cheesecake is soooo good (maybe call ahead for availability)...that crusty top is incredible. The owner is super nice!! They also make great japanese-style cheesecake and scones (calamansi and "abomination" Halloween scone freebie in the pic). This spot will definitely be in our treat rotation!

    Japanese Cheesecake, Ube Basque Cheesecake
    Larene U.

    The owner is so sweet and took the time to tell us about her business! Everything is handmade and organic which I really appreciate, which is why you know it is fresh. She really makes it a point to use good ingredients in the process of creating her pastries and you can really tell when you try them. The scones were one of the best I've had. The Kona Coffee one in particular was delicious and somehow I was able to get the last one. Perfect ratio of crunch and softness. The lilikoi soda was amazing and is one of her highlight drinks from her shop. This was super refreshing and I loved it. The puree she uses is fresh from the fruit. The cheesecake was also a winner. Definitely a must-visit place if you are ever in the area in Hawaii Kai.

Been me and my girlies go to for the past few years for our bi-monthly debrief, and we are not alone. Take a look around and there's always a few tables that look like the 2020 Hawai'i version of a Sex in the City girl gang talk fest. The location is genius. Who would have thought that putting a coffee shop in a hidden outdated strip mall in a tiny neighborhood valley would pop off? Yet it does. It feels current, it feels now. Surf Camp shares its name with its sister the popular Surf Camp attire and retail store which is the older sister as well to Up and Riding for kids- a surf themed clothing, accessories and shoes store in Kahala Mall. All of these spots exhibit a taste level, an eye for trends, and quality products. There's also a subtle but felt honoring of what makes local, local, underneath everything. I think that's what adds to the success. They know how to create a look, a vybe. Now when it comes to coffee I'd just like to do the shrugged emoji girl. Some of it I just can"t get into. I think I'm too old to get on the matcha bandwagon. I really just want drip coffee or espresso shots. I don't need fancy. I don't like milk. But my friends do, and I love my friends. The pastries are really good. The kids behind the counter are cute and hard working. I enjoy being here every time I come. If you want an experience with your beverage, a chill spot to sit and chat with your homies, or are headed out to Sandy's, Makapuu, Koko Head, or any of the other fun, beautiful spots this side has to offer, check out Surf Camp. I bet you'll be back.

Weekends they are open from 800a to 200p. Parking shared with other establishments in the building on Halemaumau Street - try saying that 3x, fast. I parked in the Niu Valley Shopping Center where there are lots of stalls.

I wouldn't say I am a coffee snob by any means, but I could definitely taste the difference in their coffee. The avocado toast was absolutely delicious and came in pretty huge portions! It was two pieces of toast with two eggs in a bed of arugula and a very generous amount of avocado. It was cooked to perfection and exactly what I needed after our hike. The pancakes are HUGE so I would recommend only ordering one. My husband was about to get two, but the waiter kindly suggested ordering only one, and she was right.

I let the ice melt because it was a bit sweet. I saw the passion fruit seeds on the bottom of my cup which told me that it's pretty authentic. I'll stick with the other locations of Teapresso Bar where the service is friendlier; the location is more convenient; and the environment is calmer.

I've tried several different things and every single time it's absolutely delicious. The coffee is perfect too. I've tried 2 different coffees and a London fog. The London fog was perfect, not too sweet. I can't think of the exact name but the honey cinnamon coffee is my go to. I've been having trouble with caffeine lately and being sensitive to it so I usually get decaf but even when they don't have decaf, if I get a single shot, I feel just fine. I've spent a couple to few hours here a couple times now and it's a great spot. I highly recommend it. Even dragged my brother in because they have Red Bull spritzers and even he said the food was incredible.

    My mom said not to drink coffee lest I become addicted to caffeine. I hope I do not go down that…read moreroot, but being a student tempts one into consuming caffeine like a madman. This is a great place to do work and meet friends, and also maybe get out of the rain while you wait for your bus. The drink options are unique, which is what I like to see for these fancy cafes that call themselves "coffeehouses". The team working here are young, probably UH students, which is to be expected. If you know me, I love sweets. Coffee is no exception. The Haupia latte is perfectly sweet, as it balances the bitterness of the coffee. The same could be said for the Hawaiian honey latte. I have a suspicion that I will be drinking all the sweet drinks from here. Let it only be for when I need energy and increased focus on an assignment. (Pray for me.)
