The cashier was very friendly and nice, always kept her smile. There are many tables for 2-4 people inside. Mobile order is available to skip the line. Next time we have to go hiking or do lots of exercise to deserve such a calorific and delicious treat.

The outdoor seating is surrounded by tropical greenery, flowers, palm trees, and beautiful turquoise water--it honestly a gem for locals.

A perfect place to grab a coffee, unwind, and soak in the island vibes. Definitely a five-star experience and somewhere I'd happily return to!

The…read morespace is beautiful, with plenty of outdoor seating and a peaceful atmosphere that's a nice escape from the busier parts of town. One of the best parts is being able to sit by the water and watch the boats come and go while enjoying your coffee. It feels calm and unhurried, making it a great spot to catch up with friends, get some work done, or simply enjoy a quiet morning. They also have an impressive pastry selection and a wide variety of drink options, so there's something for everyone. The service is consistently friendly and efficient as well. The staff are welcoming, and even when the café is busy, orders come out surprisingly quickly. Between the waterfront views, relaxing ambiance, great menu selection, and excellent service, Island Brew is definitely a place I'd recommend to both locals and visitors looking for a laid-back coffee shop experience. Come for the coffee, stay for the view.

I am not a breakfast person and Moena Cafe might have just converted me into one!…read more After a sunrise hike nearby we were looking for a good spot where we could find something delicious for the whole family (including our picky eater). After doing some research on Yelp we decided to check out Moena Cafe. The restaurant is pretty small so I would recommend getting here early. We didn't have to wait for a table but probably 30min after we arrived they had a 40-minute wait (lucky, I know). I decided to go with the avocado toast and cold brew, and my husband had an order of pancakes with blueberries. First of all, the cold brew was probably the best cold brew I've ever had! 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. Absolutely loved this place and can't wait to come back!

My boyfriend and I stopped by Moena Cafe for breakfast after our hike at Makapuʻu. It was pretty…read morebusy when we arrived, so we ended up waiting about 15-20 minutes to be seated. I ordered the banana chantily pancakes and opted for the two-pancake plate since it was only about a few more dollars than getting a single pancake. My boyfriend ordered the crab eggs Benedict, and I also got a side of pineapple sausage hash. I had originally wanted the corned beef hash, but they sold out and offered the pineapple sausage hash instead. The banana chantily pancakes were good, though I think the chantily sauce is really what makes the dish stand out. The pancakes themselves were fairly standard. I probably could've just ordered the single pancake because the portion was hug, I barely finished half of it! The pineapple sausage hash was a pleasant surprise. I already love pineapple sausage, so I enjoyed the sweet and savory flavors, and it was nice to try something a little different. My boyfriend also really enjoyed his crab eggs Benedict with the sweet, fresh flavor of the crab. Our server was friendly, and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time despite how busy the restaurant was. Moena Cafe is definitely on the pricier side, but the food was tasty and it's worth checking out if you're in the area!

We ordered the Repetti pizza and fettuccine with diavolo sauce and meatballs. We also had the Caesar salad and focaccia bread with marinara sauce. Our server was Grace. Grace was so friendly and knowledgeable and professional. In addition to the food, Grace made the dining experience exceptional. We sat outside and even though it was a very hot day, the temperature was very comfortable under the roofed area. The Pinot Grigio was excellent! Our meal was brought out in a timely manner and Grace was an attentive server. The Caesar dressing is perfection! The diavolo sauce was delicious and just-right spicy. We loved the meatballs and the fettuccine was cooked perfectly. The pizza!!!!! Wow. Just the right amount of crisp in the crust and the toppings were a delicious combination of flavors. The focaccia with marinara could have been a meal for me. The bread was hot and crispy while also being soft and savory. I couldn't get enough of the marinara. We had a lot of leftovers and ate some for dinner and still have more for tomorrow. Repetti's will be a new place for us to dine and bring friends as often as possible. We were so impressed and could not have wanted any of the experience to be different. Fantastic in every way!

Mostly we go as a takeout spot, although there was a bench outside. Their sandwich menu has variety but is not overwhelming. The people working have also been quite nice! We decided to get the No Comply toasted. While it is a pricier sandwich, as it was about $14, the sandwich came packed with chicken, lettuce, and more. It served as a meal and a half! It was also super tasty with the roasted garlic mayo and pesto. Definitely a go-to sandwich order that I am looking forward to getting again!

And you're going to need that for your day jaunting across Waikiki in your new seal-print bathing suit. So ditch that Moko Loko and grab yourself a beautiful sandwich from Sprout, you'll feel a lot better about your trip to Hawaii. I love that Sprout has vegetable-forward options even in their meat-based sandwiches. The pesto chicken salad was loaded with beautiful green goodies which made this treat as aesthetically pleasing as it was delectable. They're also slapping down some of the best local Hawaiian ingredients into these here sanguines. The pesto itself was mac-nut based, which was intriguing. I'll be honest, I couldn't taste the difference between that and a pine nut pesto, but it was friggin delish pesto either way. The only downside I can think of is that the bread here lands somewhere between "ok" and "good". I've never had a bread quite like it, but it reminds me of a mix between an artisanal white bread, and a painini bread that you would find in Italy. It got the job done, but I feel like it could be upgraded. Sprout is worth a visit before or after your beach trip. The surrounding neighborhood is also a lively area with tons of fun restaurants and shopping.

Definitely not a warm and welcoming ohana feeling here. The young girl was very snotty and had a lot of attitude. Inexperienced unprofessional. I went regularly and sat by myself with my frenchie and they didn't like service animals and were reluctant to even let me dine from the start, so eventually they stopped serving me all together. Told me I wasn't no longer allowed to dine in at small table in the back. I could really feel the unwelcome cold vibe from the start. I realized they are very busy and need to get food out fast. OK well , I was hopeful to watch a nice movie but they were to busy to accommodate. I was treated like an unwelcome nuisance over all from the beginning . We are warmly welcomed at many places like Kona Brew, Panda Express, Costco, Mahalas market. So much for aloha spirit, they rank a sadly a big fat ZERO on Aloha ! Definitely, Wont be supporting this establishment.

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.
