I'm so glad I come down to Waimea regularly for work that I can restock on food for my pup. He absolutely loved the raw dog food mix with beef and sweet potato. Oh! Don't forget that this isn't just a butcher shop, it's a take out and sit down restaurant with a nice bar selection! On certain nights they have live music too. Vibes are everything here. Service is so on point. Everyone is super nice and friendly. I learned a lot about Empress Gin (now my favorite choice for a cocktail). The food always comes out amazing. Pulled pork was moist and flavorful and the brisket, perfect! I truly recommend this to anyone driving through or staying in Waimea!

Women is soooo slow. 25 min. For 3 coffees!…read more Had us wait 15 min just to take our order. She waited til she made a whole order (sandwiches and coffees) for someone else, before she even took ours. The 2 lattes tasted like watered down oat milk, and had to ask if there is even espresso in it! AND there was honey in both, when all I ordered was 2 Ice lattes with Oat. Didn't even bother mentioning it, knowing it'd be another 20 min. And the cold brew had way too much cream (when asked for little cream) and the lady gave attitude when said too much cream, brought back another drink and slammed it on the table. With NO cream. Then refused to give a LITTLE cream for it. Saying "I already wasted so much on your last drink." Even though it was WRONG. And there was grounds in the bottom lol Bad drinks,, bad attitude. extremely slow service I recommend passing this one
