The desserts are very pretty to look at but IMO they taste as good as they look. They are $$$ of course. Priced for the well off tourists and residents of Ward Village. Good service though and nice ambiance and out door seating. They do get busy so be prepared to wait in line. read more

Dean & Deluca - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Came here for New Year's Day, glad they're open. I ordered their breakfast which was Ham & Egg Croissant and Sausage & Egg Sandwich. These two sandwiches were delicious. Perfect match with my Iced Latte. Service was ok. The bakery looks clean and organized. It's a good place to chill with friends and family. I'll recommend this place to my friends. read more

I have been watching way too many S Korea cafe hopping videos but won't be traveling for a bit. But then I thought, we have cafes here at home and found a cluster of them in the Ward area. Our first stop was Dean and Deluca. Love the tea time option in Waikiki but I'm local and try to avoid the area. So after some research we ended up parking at Ward Center and making it a shopping trip as well. Turned on Google Maps to find Dean and Deluca. Only 6 mins. At 12 pm, we walked by the long line at the bakery, past the local plate lunch restaurant, made a left turn by Whole Foods behind the movie theater parking lot. Cross the little street, up the ramp, made a left turn at the end of the walkway to find Dean and Deluca. Several filled cafe tables are available on the outside this cute little store. Looked over the sandwiches, pasta, baked goods in the casing and finally decided on the iced blue lagoon latte and salami sandwich while sister got a hot honey tea and half a turkey sandwich. The blue lagoon latte looked so beautiful and was really good too. Not too sweet, but just right. Sister's hot tea was tasty as well and not sweet at all. Nothing special about the sandwiches. However, I did learn a few days later it was restaurant week and that Dean and Deluca participated. Their offering was the shrimp pasta and salad. When I think back, they ran out of salad. Had we known, I would have gotten the pasta. We were able to get a table outside. The day was cool and breezy. Very comfortable. You can watch the staff working in the kitchen. However, there are tables under the windows so as not to bother the other patrons, I wasn't able to admire the staffs skill set. My sister did go back in and ordered the Dulce de Tres leche. So this was interesting. My sister and I shared it and was trying to cut through the cookie cup and was confused because tres leche is supposed to be drenched in sweetened milk. When we were able to see the inside of the dessert, there was the tres leche and it was really good. Wish it was larger. So the tres leche is like a tart. Cookie cup on the outside, tres lech on the inside. The restroom is shared with the other businesses in this condo building. There's a sign in the cafe providing the code. Super bright and clean. After our relaxing little brunch, we browsed the items in the store. They have super cute items including coffee and espresso cups as well as single serve ramekins. Fairly priced. They also have Hawaii made coffees and teas. Although a brief encounter, the staff was members were very sweet. A very good start to the day. read more

Dean & Deluca - Ube and Custard Pastry - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

A cute little Dean & Deluca in the new Ward's off the playground in the back. Great place to grab a snack and coffee while you watch your kids play. Things are priced at D&D prices, but the quality is there. I bought a cute little cooler bag to take back home to the mainland. Got a plantation iced tea which was really good and some pastries and a giant piece of focaccia bread which was only $4! Ate it for breakfast the next day. Staff was friendly, but it does close early, I think around 4 or 5? I want to go back and try the coffee on a future visit. read more

Dean & Deluca is kinda hidden away in the back of the Ko'ula building. When we found it, we thought it was such a cute and bright coffee shop! We got the Hawaiian salt caramel latte and the ube matcha latte. Both were pretty good! My Hawaiian salt caramel latte had a strong coffee flavor and I think I do remember it being a little salty as well but still drinkable. My boyfriend enjoyed his ube matcha latte. The ube wasn't too overpowering which was nice! This visit was a while ago and from what I remembered, the prices were ok/decent like from your typical coffee shop in town. Their pastry case looked good! read more

Yummy! We stopped in after the farms market to grab a couple sweets for the road. The store was super clean and aesthetically pleasing. The pastries were just amazing looking. Love the merch section. We enjoyed our picks, I was a little let down by the matcha cake, it was dry and lacking in flavor. Everything else was great. If you have a chance swing by grab a treat and coffee. It is worth it!!! read more

Tried "Take Vert Yame Matcha" cake. This is one of special cakes for "Taste of Ward." This is beautiful and taste is delicately sweet with a sprinkle of sea salt. I would say this is an ultimate cake for an adult (the price is also for an adult:$10) Btw this Yame Matcha is the name for upscale green tea from Fukuoka prefecture. I really hope Dean and Deluca continues to sell this cake after the Taste of Ward...please read more

Dean & Deluca - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

This is a nice, good quality, outdoor bakery/cafe in Kakaako kind of across from Wholefood. It is inside one of the new high rise condo and I don't know the name. Personally I'm not a matcha drinker but my companion wasn't too happy with the undissolved matcha powder. On the flip side, I was happy with the iced mocha latte. I did ask for less sweet and it was perfect for me. I also liked their cheesecake. I think it's more like a Japanese style. Also very light and moist. The second dessert we got was some kind of brownie and that was just okay. Lots of merchandise, other pastries and sandwiches are available. Several staff behind the counter but it took awhile for us to get our drinks and service was pretty laid back. read more

I've been coming to my beloved Dean & Deluca in Kakaako since they first opened. As usual, I ordered their amazing canelé--one of the very few places that made them properly. Delicious! Unfortunately, I was told they no longer produce them. I understand; making canelé requires a special skill set that few have, and it's a time-consuming process. I moved on to their beautiful croissant, which had always perfectly complemented my canelé and black coffee a few times a week. To my surprise, the croissant was about a quarter smaller than the ones I've enjoyed over the last 50 visits. Coincidentally, I was at their Waikiki location just last week and decided against picking up a croissant because I noticed it was much smaller than the ones at Kakaako. I've asked the staff at the Kakaako location and they acknowledged they looked smaller too. Now I'm wondering--has there been a company-wide shift to making smaller croissants? Hmm. The staff continues to be absolutely amazing as usual. Bravo! read more

Always enjoy meeting my friend Jackie K for so many reasons whether it's for a Yelp Elite event or coffee. Cool that we somehow never keep each other waiting Today was the first time I've ever been into a Dean and Deluca although I heard that name over ten years ago when a co-worker had a tote bag with that name on it probably from off island. I found trail mix, a decorated cookie and 4 nickel sized decorated doggie cookies for Doc and grandpup, T Bebe. Jackie had a hot mocha latte and I had a cold mocha frappe cuz I checked out the photos beforehand. She shared a slice of brioche with me. About 3 hours into our conversation the cashier brought around samples of an item Jackie said pairs great with tomato bisque soup, heated up. There are several tables outside you can enjoy your beverage. Very classy vibe inside, and a clean, safe outdoor space. So many CUTE puppies walking past us. There are restrooms nearby using a code for access. The rain and construction noise couldn't spoil a very good meet up. read more

Amazing shopping, eating and spa relaxation here at Ko'ula shops. New and exciting restaurants and shops here.

Free parking at the Ward Entertainment Center. Or Whole Foods Market complex. A must try for foodies and Yelpers. See you soon! read more

Enjoyed my visit to Dean and DeLuca Kaka'ako with a few of my friends. While meandering in the store I was offered a sample of the in-store milled baguette served warm with melted butter. It was soooo good! Will definitely consider getting in the future. The displays were nicely presented. The electronic board featured a Yama Sencha iced tea which I immediately ordered. Looking for a savory snack I happily grabbed the last cheese bite. Perfect snack for the morning. The iced tea was so refreshing, enjoyed it the whole day. At 9:30am the customers were lined up. Unfortunately the crew forgot a few of my friends orders. And when they asked about their drink orders they were met with blank stares. No apologies for forgetting. No expediting forgotten drinks. In fact, friend said the manager skipped over her to help the customer behind her? This location has a few service kinks to work out. Observed a fly issue too. Do love the plentiful seating outside. Will look forward to trying again after a little time to see if improved. Located in the new Ward Victoria enclave if shops. Both self parking across the driveway in the theatre parking lot and valet parking is available. read more

Mont Blanc Those two little words! Dean and Deluca Hawaii makes the best little sweet treat, not too sweet, light and airy... and I love this little spot to stop in for a coffee and this treat! Located in the Kōʻula condominium building at Ward, there is a nice outdoor area to sit and enjoy items from this coffee and tea spot. They have a little retail boutique to purchase a few of their staple products. Parking nearby at Whole Foods or the adjacent movie theater lot. read more

Teatime in Kaka'ako, Honolulu, Hawaii... Jackie wanted to meet up with Irene and me. She asked for suggestions as to where we could have a chat. Irene brilliantly found Dean & Deluca - Kaka'ako Kouka Store. Located on the ground level of the Koula condominium building, underneath the Onkee Korean Grill House (Restaurant), this third location of Dean & Deluca has some outdoor seating, but beware of the flies - possibly from the nearby park where residents walk their dogs. Service was inconsistent. One of the servers might have a language barrier. It was challenging for her to explain the restroom (around the corner) code to me. The male server was really cheerful and helpful - and even gave a Loyalty Card to Jackie. Irene and I didn't get a card, but we didn't ask... I got the Kame Cold Brewed Sencha which was unsweetened, not bitter, and very refreshing! I also ordered a Strawberry Almond Tarte - it had a nice crust, smooth filling, and fresh strawberries... yummy! We might return again when we're in the area. It was a relaxing environment with the fresh air and slight breeze! read more

Great spot to catch up... As it was the suggested place to meet Jackie K and Nadine C as this Kaka'ako area is slowly developing with lots of new biz opening in the area surrounded by various condominium one that's still in development fronting the shop as we speak. Parking though is available through between Ward Entertainment area and Whole Foods though getting there from those parking structures can be quite a journey I hope that there would be more easier spots to park. I was excited to see Dean & Deluca in Kaka'ako as this more informal spot is a great place to grab a treat and though there's no seating in the shop there are a few right outside along with a bathroom which I believe you need a code to access. I did get the Hawaiian Soda which comes in various flavors and decided on the Strawberry and decided to pair it with a Raspberry Pistachio Tart. The tart was so yummy and delicious with a firm crust holding all the custard as I grabbed a raspberry with each bite but at $9 it did kinda sting a bit but it paired with my Hawaiian Strawberry Soda perfect as it wasn't too sweet and had just the right flavor to it. Love the vibe and ambiance though the flies are quite annoying and actually the biggest concern for me as I didn't feel like I could relax and enjoy my $9 tart as I engulfed it from the flies lol! The service is amazing with the guy who can over hear my questions answered them instantly since some had some language barrier understandably but really wished they also posted their seasonal items like "Iced Matcha Pumpkin Latte" and "Zesty Orange Mocha Latte" instead of flashing it on the large screen high above the baked goods as it was missed opportunity that I would've loved to give a try. Not totally an organized system they have here with straws above the display case versus the service counter while the napkins and stirs above the trash...all this is fixed it's a great spot to meet your besties. Thank you! read more

A tiny boutique shop with a few outdoor seats to enjoy purchases. Unlike the shop in the Ritz Waikiki, this one is strictly grab and go. No custom party platters or collaborations with neighboring restaurants yet. Week 2 since opening, 11:30am and they have practically no house made food to sell except... What a baguette!!! Made from in house milled flour. Classic European bread. Very hard and crisp on the outside, chewy, moist crumb inside. Tear this apart rather than using a bread knife. There is less chance of cutting up the roof of your mouth. Great smeared with German butter. Prices are very high as expected. Looking forward to returning and trying more of their European style breads. read more

We finally got to try their new location in Kaka'ako and we decided to come right after they opened up. Surprisingly, there was quite a bit of line already, although the line moved really fast and most people just wanted to look around their gift shop. The location can be a bit tough to find if you're not familiar with the Ward area. The cafe is located in the corner by the park and just right below Onkee. I love its private and tucked away vibe, so it does not get loud and too crowded. We came with our pup and the staff were very friendly and accommodating! They even gave us 2 pup cups since my dog really seems to love it. We wanted to order their pastries, but it wasn't as complete as the ones in Waikiki and the prices seem a bit expensive. We ended up getting the salted caramel coffee and that did not disappoint! It was really tasty and definitely not overly sweet. There's only a few tables, so you might have to wait for other customers to be done. If you want to relax and enjoy your pastries and coffee peacefully, definitely come by during the weekdays where there is less people. But overall, a very enjoyable experience for us! read more

I was happy to hear this location finally opened. Stopped by here a late morning coffee and pastry. It was such a nice day out with a steady breeze. Hawaiian Honey Latte w oat milk and Chocolate Almond Croissant. The French cocoa powder dusted on top toasted almonds and a light chocolate filling wasn't too sweet which I liked. A Milk Bread to go came unsliced which I took home to make a grilled sando with. DD had an iced Hawaiian Milk Tea and LOVED IT. Well balanced w just enough sweet for her. This location opens 7 days a week, even on Christmas Day. Love the selection of aprons and totes. They have these mini scented candles smelled so yummy. Beautiful display case of individual cakes that made my mouth water. I didn't notice the breakfast sandwiches until after I paid as it was to the far left of the display cases. This was close by and convenient. Nice outdoor seating. Will definitely be back. I wish they had the spices like the Waikiki location. read more

My wife was looking forward to trying food from Dean & Deluca. The service was friendly and polite! Hawaiian Honey Latte-Iced (4/5). Delightfully sweet, and smooth. Croissant (4/5) - flakey, crunchy, but soft center. This was a good croissant! Pork Belly Bruschetta (3/5). The pork belly was good. The Baguette was soft and soggy. Empanada Beef & Egg (3/5). The pastry was good. The beef & egg was tasty but overall I was pricey. CONS: -Hard to find with all the construction going on. -Flies in the display case. -Outside tables to sit and eat, again too many flies around landing on you and your food. I know that's not D&D's fault but, it did affect our experience. read more

I come to this location every Saturday after my workout and there's a reason why I keep coming back. I really only get two things from there and it's usually just a sweet treat and an iced tea but the service here is so great. It really keeps me coming back. The line can sometimes get long, especially when people are looking at the delicious dessert case but the staff gets the line moving very quickly, which is always appreciated. On Saturdays it might be a little bit harder to find a table but if you wait for just a little bit, you should be able to sit down with no problem. Since I come here every Saturday relatively early, I have not really had an issue and you start to see the same faces so you start to share tables which is nice. Since this location is below a few condo buildings, the crowd tends to be more local and so you start to recognize people in the neighborhood. What I really appreciate about this location is their consistency. I always get the same two things like I mentioned earlier and each time they taste exactly the same. I know the quality is always going to be there so I know this is something that I can depend on. And for those that have to go to the bathroom after having a certain caffeinated beverage, there is a nearby bathroom with a code that the café can provide you with. read more

Food and drinks are good but they are pricey. Also, I found lots of parking near the Ward movie theaters. It's a quick walk.

Service was great and pastry were superb I ordered the moca latte sat down with my order relaxing watching the ambiance around me

Came in on New Year's Day and was the only person at the counter ready to order, with three people behind it. I received a brief hello, but there was no acknowledgment beyond that. No "I'll be right with you" or indication that someone would be taking my order. After waiting without acknowledgment, I stepped away to decide if I still wanted to spend money there at all. I did still want a coffee, so I took a lap around the courtyard and came back. When I returned, I asked if they were ready, and they then took my order. Since this location is so close to my apartment, I'll likely be back, but I do hope the service improves. Basic acknowledgment goes a long way, and for a place like Dean and DeLuca, customer service should already be part of the standard. Service is everything. Here's to better customer experiences in 2026. read more

Service was good; Outdoor seatings available; Raspberry pistachio eclair is good but I do not recommend their Canele. I couldn't finish the whole canele because inside look raw or too wet.

Such a cute bakery!! This was my first time going so we tried to get all the baked items that were recommended. The first one, the chocolate was very rich, delicious but rich, I wasn't able to finish my half. The yellow one, lilikoi, was probably my favorite one out of all of them!! Refreshing!! And finally the strawberry one, we were supposed to get the raspberry but were given the wrong one. The only thing off the was "tart" or the cookie part of this one. It didn't have much flavor and took up over half the pastry. I would definitely come again, the service was fast, I would just try something else read more

I was excited for a new spot to open up in the neighborhood but was quite disappointed with the few things I ordered over couple of visits. I've tried the following items here: - Pork Belly Bruschetta 1/10: pork belly was not soft. Bread was super hard and tasted stale - and super hard to chew - Empanada 5/10: filling was decent but super bland and on the smaller side - Hazelnut Cream Puff 4/10: I was disappointed by this cream puff because there wasn't much what I'd consider cream in this puff. It felt like eating sweet refrigerated butter. - Chocolate Eclair 6/10: it was not bad but not my favorite either. Found this to be unbalanced and too sweet - Custard Cream Puff 9/10: this is the only item I enjoyed so far. Perfect cream and perfect custard . I wasn't compelled to try other food items like the sandwiches and smoked salmon etc as they look old and stale. I was also disappointed by their drink offerings. They were selling pumpkin pie matcha latte but does not have regular matcha latte on their menu, which does not make sense. I might give a final visit to try their bread and other bakery items, but I don't have too high expectation anymore read more

My favorite coffee place beautiful environment and good taste of coffee. I like the honey latte.

The staff here are always nice and waiting to serve you as their customer with their nice smiles and welcome. I work at the Koula building location twice weekly and whenever I need a pick me up, I grab myself a white chocolate Frap or a caramel Frap. They also have a beautiful selection of desserts if you get there early enough before they run out, some mini plates that they are able to warm up for you, and delectable freshly made breads. I always see the bakers and pastry chef(s) in the evening doing their magic. Nice clean establishment, they have outdoor seating for their customers, parking is located across the street where you would park for the theaters, and their hours are from 7-7 from what I have noticed. They offer a lot of items that are great for gifts and also have a small section of baked goods for the dogs. Go and check them out! read more

The first time I ever encountered Dean & Deluca was at Shinagawa Station in Tokyo - to this day, I think of Dean & Deluca as first a Japanese business that had a NY/Italian focus. The new location in Ward Village, just like the other locations in Waikiki, pretty much lives up to that perception. First, in an extremely positive way - the breads, the coffees, the pastries, the sandwiches... and on and on... are, quite simply perfect. For me, it is still a caricature of an Italian shop only because in a real Boston or NY version of this type of store I'd also expect ability to buy cheeses, sliced meats, and a lot more. That is just an expectation and desire for more, what is offered is first rate. Service here still seems to be learning things, and it doesn't appear they have figured out yet how to handle simple retail versus orders for people wanting to enjoy the outside tables. That should work out over time (hint: two lines). The location is in an upcoming area of Ward Village, with the ups and downs of that. Right now, the outside space is squeezed into a small patio while the park is renewed. So the views are a huge green wall with some pictures, no sun, a few plants, and lots of tables squeezed in. This should improve over time - but, for me, this is a grab and go place, not a linger place as the ambience isn't great. Overall, this looks like a winner for Dean & Deluca - and when the wall comes down and the park is again open to all of us, I think it will be a wonderful spot for a coffee, for lunch, for time with friends.. read more
