It does come as a single link, but it's perfectly portioned for an average breakfast and leaves you feeling full and satisfied without being overly heavy. My husband ordered the country fried chicken and really enjoyed it. The portion size on his plate was especially generous. Of course, we had to try the pancake flight--it was delicious and just the right amount. I love having a variety without feeling overwhelmed. One small note: I ordered a regular drip coffee and found the price a bit steep $5, especially since it only includes one refill--so definitely be sure to ask for it to get your money's worth. Overall, this is a spot we'll absolutely keep coming back to!

When I was handed a bag and asked if I could eat in, one employee looked to the other, who replied "I guess" -- as if my staying was an imposition. I've been sitting here and haven't been offered so much as a glass of water. To top it off, I ordered my eggs over medium and they came out with a fully hard yolk. A small detail, but it matters -- especially when the rest of the experience is already falling short. Hard to recommend when both the service and the food miss the mark.

However, the star of the dish, the avocado, felt more like an afterthought. There was barely a smear on the toast, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, I still enjoyed my breakfast, but the lack of avocado brings it down for me. I'd give it a 3.5/5.

First, this spot is located on the corner of Ho'omohala and Nana Hope street near the Ho'opili community. Btw, this area blew up! Such a family friendly and cute neighborhood! Second, there is no designated parking for this coffee shop so you will have to find somewhere on the street to park. Beware, there are nparking signs across the street that indicate "No parking " so be sure to pay attention to signs. They tow! Third, the service was slow because there are only two baristas who worked as efficiently as they could so I wouldn't come here if you're in a rush to go somewhere. I ordered a large, French toast hot latte and their breakfast burrito that came with a small container of salsa. Everything was delish and believe that nothing went to waste after the calories I burned at the gym. Hehe. The French Toast latte brought back memories and felt like I was holding the season of Fall in a cup of:) Definitely recommend that you check it out if you're a coffee fan. Other seasonal beverages include the Audrey Hepburn, Royal Hawaiian Mocha and Thai latte. Spot the new stuffie?

Ambiance is great as it is in Four Seasons.

I do have a nut allergy, and sometimes the staff doesn't write the milk choice on the cup, which makes me a bit uneasy. That said, I'll be more verbal about it next time to make sure it's clear. One thing I didn't love was that the ice was stored in what looked like a typical camping cooler. I'm a little skeptical about how well those get cleaned, although it's possible their ice machine was just down that day. Overall, the view is amazing, the coffee is fine, and the food is quite pricey. There are a few menu items I'd splurge on, but with an ABC Store close by offering very similar options, I'd probably be selective about what I order.

You gotta go in the main entrance, dont worry if you not military affiliated, and go left and walk all the way down the hall and its just before behavior health services. I have been wanting to try this place for a while. They are open when the clinic is open. So M-F till 3 pm and not on fed holidays. We ended up going two days in a row. They have a variety of drinks, and snacks (some from local vendors). The scones and lemon cupcakes are bomb. They also serve lunch though I have yet to try bc I work in PC. They do shut down their oven a little earlier than closing and wont be able to warm up your baked goods but that didnt affect us bc who really cares. I am a black coffee girl but decided it was a waste of money when my hubs and I go on coffee dates to just get black coffee. I had been seeing their Lemon Bar Matcha online and it met the mark. So worth the buzz. My hubs got Cinnamon Crunch Cold Brew. It was good too. On our second visit my husband got the Chocolate Coconut Cold Brew (bc I suggested it bc I really wanted it) and it was way better than what I ended up ordering (what was it... Mango Matcha). Staff is hit or miss but that seems to be true where ever you go so whatevs. I will still return to get more.

But I took my kids to another coffee truck (A Little A Latte) and like it goes with kids, they made me late. So I got here right at 10. But it's ok bc Cai.CafeX3 was just getting here. So I was a tad annoyed. But then I actually looked at the sign and it said 11am. They opened the doors right on time at 11 and took the first two customers in. I waited not even 5 more min before they let me in. Initially they were still making drinks for Jolene's staff which I think is awesome to bless their staff with a drink but it really delayed the drinks for the rest of us. They were very nice tho and kept apologizing. Wasn't a huge problem bc at the beginning of events like this you need to hit your groove. I was out of there by 11:22. The girls in front of me ordered a total of 4 drinks, and I ordered 3 drinks.... So I guess over all with all the staff drinks they had to make, and the fact that it was only one drink maker... they were still pretty quick. The line was wrapping around Jolene's so I think they will do well. I ordered the Vanilla Salted Caramel, the Strawberry Matcha Spritzer, and the Hojicha. They were only offering oat milk today, I think to manage the line, but if you go to their IG they normally offer other milks. I will need to try them again when I can choose bc I do not really like oat milk. But I do like how you can customize your sweetness level. All our drinks were good. My daughter pilfered the spritzer. Of the three the salted vanilla was the best. Their straws were cute pink heart straws that didn't photograph well in its wrapping. But my daughter says she's gonna use one on Wednesday bc it's pink lol. And we got a cute sticker too!

In the middle of a weekday, it's easy to find parking at the park's parking lot, and if for some reason it's crowded, there's always street parking. I really like how they have a few tables, chairs, and even beach mats for customers to use while enjoying their treats. It's a perfect spot to enjoy a calm and relaxing morning. The entire area is really aesthetically pleasing to me! The pricing of the coffee is similar to other coffee shops in Kapolei (around the $7/drink mark), and the drinks are unique enough from other shops for me to want to go again instead of consistently going to a closer coffee shop. I recommend getting the apple cinnamon chai drink (I forgot the exact name) because it tastes like the inside of an apple pie and it easily soothes the body. I don't even normally like chai but this drink was amazing. One of these days, I would want to visit BE on a Saturday so that I'm not in a rush to head back to work. It would be perfect to read a book and have a drink under the sun!

I walked in looked at the menu, let me add the limited space in this store with customers coming in and leaving with their orders made me realize that I stepped into a small business that's thriving. As stood in line and looked at the menu board, still unsure of what to order. I walked up to the counter and asked a few questions. The employee was very helpful and helped me to decide, she also made me aware of what I was getting. For myself I got the Affogato (A scoop of ice cream & shot of green tea). For my husband I gotten him the iced matcha $7 and added their house-made syrup earl grey for a $1. Their matcha tasted rich, earthy, smooth, creamy & vibrant green color. Which seems to be of good quality. I don't normally drink matcha green tea, it was definitely delicious treat and will order it again.
