Decided to do a morning outing to North Shore beach day to watch waves. Stopped at this little locals place for the second time. Love the feel of non touristy location with inside and outside dining. Order at the counter a they provide a number for your table. They have inside and outside dining out back. The outside dining is campy and I like it. Although we were seated inside, at the time we thought it was connected with a different business. We ordered a breakfast burrito for husband and I had the avocado toast and coffee. Really enjoyed my meal, nicely seasoned. The burrito was huge with country fries. This little gem will be on our list when in Haleiwa.

Inside dining. They have outside dining as well

Ambiance is perfect. I had 2 Eggs, Bacon (cooked perfectly) and 2 huge Pancakes. All was so good. Service was super friendly. A must stop by spot.

Country breakfast with French toast

Amazing breakfast very hearty and nice to sit indoors while it was raining. Fresh coffee with free refills

Loco Moco
Nhu Y P.

We tried Cafe Haleiwa today since we were in the area, and we had a good experience. Husband and I both ordered the loco moco. They ran out of mac salad, and I was able to sub in avocado instead, which I didn't mind. We both liked the loco moco and thought the gravy was tasted rich and savory. They have indoor and outdoor seating, and outdoor seating might feel more breezy and cool. The parking is located in the back. I think we went at a good time where we were able to find parking, but it doesn't bother us too much if we had to walk. You place your order at the counter, and they bring it to you. Everyone was very nice. The inside has a nostalgic feeling. It felt quaint and cozy. We also didn't want to wait very long for our food. If we're ever in the area again, we would stop by.

Amazing food, cute little Cafe, with good clean food. I got the Greek omelet and it was very tasty. The service was good. You order at the counter and then they bring you your food. Self serve coffee and water. Restrooms in the back, porta potty with visiting geckos. Lovely cat came for a visit, which was a highlight, sweet.

Hometown Haleiwa feel. So simple and easy going I loved the surfer vibe. Cute little self serve water and pre paid coffee station. The food may come out on paper plates but it is just sooo good. The French toast was what I needed after my hike to refuel my tummy and soul. The bacon was crisp and yummy. Eggs pretty cooked! I don't think I have sat down and ate so much at one time, I almost finished it all!!! Service is chill and kind. Love this cafe! Have been there a couple times and I am never disappointed

Tomato Benedict Special added pouch eggs and avocado with their homemade fries.

We really never come down to Haleiwa, so when we do finding other restaurants to eat is a must. This was our first time here and we really enjoyed Cafe Haleiwa food. I got their tomato Benedict special and just added the egg pouch and avocado. Such a really good combo. I love how the English muffin was really toasted on the bottom it really made it more savoring. I like their homemade fries but some of them weren't cooked all the way so I had to put them On the side. But overall we enjoyed Cafe Haleiwa food and atmosphere.

Avocado toast
Dakota M.

Really enjoyed this! Spam was very good, loved my Avocado toast. The loco moco could have used a little more flavor but still very good, super filling and well priced. Cute little casual place.

Loco Nico and eggs bene

Cute little cafe in the north shore. Abundance of seating inside and outside. Staff were respectful and nice. Typical breakfast food you'd get at any diner but it was made good. Parking in the back of the cafe. Not too expensive for breakfast.

The waffles are not in the pic, but they were so crispy and yummy, just like the fresh toast, asparagus and bacon omelette.
Nena A.

Food taste homemade! It was all so fresh and healthy. All the waitress were all professional, attention. and beautiful. It's a great place to feel the Hawaiian vibe.

We've passed by this place many of times and thought why not try it out. So we stoped by to get some breakfast. There's plenty of parking in the back. The workers are very nice. I'm not going to lie, it's a little bit run down but that doesn't affect that food quality. The food taste very homey. Comforting and for the price, don't expect top tier high end restaurant. It's like mom or dad made it. The wait was not long and the food was fresh. I'd definitely come here for a quick cheap meal. There's also outdoor seating if you want to enjoy fresh air.

Cold brew with milk, caramel and whipped cream

The food is terrific, service is great! Amazing local spot! Definitely a must eat at location! Try the French toast with blueberries if you like that sort of thing.

Sat down and ordered French toast. Took an hour to receive it. Great food if you're willing to spend a good chunk of time waiting.

While my friends went out to see the tortoises, I made my way to Saylor's for a refreshing coffee drink. The cafe had several small tables and was pretty empty in the afternoon, which was perfect for me to sit down, cool off, and zone out. COCO AMERICANO This was espresso shot(s) + unsweetened coconut water, which was exactly what I needed. A straight Americano would've been too sharp, but the coconut water felt like the gentle padding I needed. Tropical with a very subtle sweetness, this was the perfect rejuvenating drink while I got to sit in the shade with AC. Overall, this was a cute and quaint cafe. The baristas were nice, and they source their beans from Haleiwa Coffee Roasters (I think), which they also have for sale near the register.

The bagel dog had great flavor, I personally felt the bagel was a little harder/chewy but it tasted great. The salted honey latte might have been a little too salted for me but I enjoyed the Haleiwa honey latte. The line was packed but it moved pretty quickly. The shop is so cute inside, they have lots of surfing paintings, merch, and other things for purchase. They have some seating inside, but parking is awful. They share the parking lot with Haleiwa bowls so it's pretty small and squished.

We shared the pecan pie, pineapple muffin, and pumpkin muffin. I really liked the pecan pie crust. Both the muffins were moist, and I enjoyed the chunks of fruit in the pineapple one. I wanted to get savory food, but they were sold out by the time we got there. I also got a golden turmeric latte. I don't really know what I was expecting from a golden turmeric latte, but it just tasted earthy. Nothing amazing about it, but I'm sure it had great health benefits. Service was super friendly even though it was rather busy when we went. There was lots of seating in this cute covered area separated from the shop. I liked how quiet it was compared to the inside of the shop where they are calling out orders. I'm so sad that this place is closing after serving Haleiwa for so many years!

How sad! :( This has been a go to place for a cup of coffee and something sweet if I was in Haleiwa in the mornings. Also buy locally grown and fresh ground coffee...a lot of times for gifts. Sigh... gotta try to find a new place, but nothing can replace the Coffee Gallery... Got 6 more days for those who wanna make that last stop...

They sell autumn specials, I got the brown sugar chai which the cashier recommended that it'd be a little more spiced and autumn like, though I kind of wish I opted out for the banana nutmeg Matcha, which she said would be more sweet. I also got the breakfast Bahmi. I really like the sourdough. It's all a lot more than just food and drinks too. They have T-shirts, art, desserts and so much. I like the vibe in general everyone's super chill and mellow very different vibe than town. And I really liked the vibey music they were playing.

I got one of their specials which was the honey lilikoi latte. I remember it being good, it was more on the sweet and milky side, which I didn't mind. My boyfriend also tried a couple of their pastries, including the pineapple sausage roll and a cinnamon pastry/roll. He didn't care for them since they were pretty dry. Overall, this place was ok! Coffee wasn't bad but I'd probably skip the pastries. I do really like the vibe and how cute the whole place is. They have a large menu and even merch, so there's plenty to check out.

It was so refreshing for a hot day and it was filling without making you feel grossly full after a meal too. Perfect because we walked over to the beach to enjoy it! Parking is kind of hard to find though, there's parking behind their little shop but if you don't find parking there, I know some people have parked on the street and walked over. There's also no indoor seating as this is like a little "shack" but there's some seating around the area- better yet, just order your bowl and go to the beach nearby and enjoy the waves while savoring the sweet acai bowls! The girls who took our orders were super kind as well- they were patient with us while we were deciding what we wanted to get and got out bowls out quickly! All in all, we are going to come back here again to get more acai bowls! Their bowls are a generous size, even for the small and they are so full of nutrition! A definite stop when you are nearby!
