That morning was the very first time I ever had a Kouign-Amann (or "Queen Amann" as my phone loves to autocorrect it, which honestly fits because it's royalty ), and it completely ruined me for all others. It set an impossibly high standard for every single one I've tried since! The flaky, buttery, caramelized layers were pure perfection. We didn't get a chance to try their savory menu offerings, but I can absolutely speak for the pastries - the others we tried were very good too, but that Kouign-Amann completely topped it off. We haven't been back since that trip, but I cannot wait to check them out again next time we visit Maui. If you're doing the early morning Haleakalā run, this is an absolute must-stop!

I hate to leave bad reviews...but it's sad to see something that used to be good, now be so bad…read more The first red flag should have told me What I needed to know, the lack of customers. This place used to be so packed. only two tables were occupied. Also, the caliber of staffing is not the same. I was used to bread being served while we waited for our food. Now you have to order the "bread basket". it wasn't too expensive, so inndid t really care. when it came out, it seemed like ciabatta from Costco. it was served with whipped garlic butter. Wasn't bad tasting at all though. The entrees were good (beef tips / meatloaf). another red flag was the lack of desserts. Kula Bistro used to be know for desserts. I feel they were they were never a letdown if you just wanted desserts. Now, the showcase is pretty much empty. Now to the most shadiest part, the payment. I already feel the prices are too high for the experience you get here. When we went to pay, there's a cash price and credit card price. This wasn't posted anywhere and a big surprise. To me, this makes this place feel trashy and cheap, but with a big price tag. There's a reason this place is empt. Now I know.

Amazing cafe with clean interior and delicious pastries!…read more With a sleek modern aesthetic, the inside is cool and perfect to work/study for just hang out before a flight as it is close to the airport and has free wifi. I also saw someone bring their dog, so I guess it must be pet friendly too! Parking: own parking lot, but in the morning It is super busy so may need to park elsewhere when coming before noon Got the: 1. Hazelnut coffee mouse: 10/10 to die for, absolutely would get again, likely tomorrow 2. Chocolate croissant: 10/10, absolutely amazing, legit French croissant 3. Coconut roll: 10/10, scrumptious but may be a little sweet for some TLDR: you won't regret either a quick pit stop, a relaxing get together, or a extended working session here, as the pastries and inside are just awesome

The sandwiches were great, eggs not overcooked, cheese melted, bacon cooked well, not soggy. Can't wait to go back!

Tell me you don't want me to be here without actually saying, "I don't want you here."…read more We've been coming to Grandmas for over 10 years, and it's always been one of those comfy, cozy places that just feels good. This visit felt really different. Today we brought family visiting from off-island after a walk on Thompson Road. We decided to stay and dine in instead of taking it to go. Looking back... maybe takeout would've been the better option. Ugh. I honestly hate writing this. The only reason I am is because I'm hoping someone from the Grandmas team reads this and actually cares enough to make some changes. If you don't know, you can't grow. Today our experience looked like this: * Watching several people get served after us even though we ordered first. Waiting for almost 30 minutes. * Our order getting mixed up and handed to the wrong person * Confusion about what muffins were available... okay fine, I'll take a blueberry muffin. Then halfway through eating it, I found a hair baked into it * Ordering potatoes without onions because of an allergy, having it made wrong twice, and needing it redone * Noticing the restaurant itself looked like it could use a deep cleaning, including ceiling fans with layers of dust And maybe this was just an off day, but the staff vibe felt... off too. Disconnected. Kind of cliquey. Like everyone seemed more interested in talking amongst themselves than serving guests. The warm, welcoming feeling Grandmas always had just didn't feel like it was there today. As a customer, I honestly felt like I was intruding or inconveniencing the staff just by being there, and that's a really strange feeling in a place we've loved for so long. That's honestly the part that made me the most disappointed. We've loved Grandmas for years, which is why this was tough. After reading several other reviews, it seems others may have had similar experiences too. I really hope things improve and staff morale lifts, because as customers, we feel it. Mahalo for reading. I truly hope this helps and leads to positive changes.

Great spot for fresh, tasty snacks! You can grab something and walk to the beach across the street,…read moreor relax on their patio. The staff was super friendly and walked us through all the treats on display. We tried several items, and our favorite was the Hawaiian Muffin--pineapple, coconut, macnuts, and a macnut crumble on top. It was recommended to us and absolutely delivered. We also loved the Lilikoi Sweet Bun, filled with a bright passion‑fruit cream. So good. The Pina Colada Sweet Bun had great flavor, though it was a bit on the dry side. There are plenty of other options, and we'd definitely stop by again next time we're in Maui.

(+) Pretzel Croissant…read more Maui bread is a bakery that sells pastries, some hot food items, and desserts. Another staple when visiting Maui. My wife and I come here for their pretzel croissant. It tastes exactly what it sounds like. They used to give the mustard spread, but now they charge for it. Either way, we are still coming back because of how fluffy and flakey the croissant is. You have to try it. We've tried a few other pastries and they were decent.

It's a small, casual place, but the cinnamon rolls are delicious. Definitely recommend adding the cream cheese frosting and macadamia nut topping -- that combination was so good. Really glad I stumbled across this spot and would absolutely recommend stopping by if you're nearby.

Cinnamon Roll Place is a very straightforward name as the restaurant sells what its name suggests…read more It sells massive cinnamon rolls in a small shop in a plaza, but they also sell coffee and sandwiches. However, their main selling point are the cinnamon rolls. We shared one cinnamon roll ($7.15) which was huge! It's definitely shareable unless you have a big sweet tooth. We also got the cream cheese frosting ($0.85) which we drizzled on top. I recommend going early because they sell out because they're made fresh.

The most generously filled pork buns I've ever had. The butter rolls too, I've never had anything like it. The butter in the center of the rolls, genius! We are planning to go to the bakery before we leave to get some buns to go!! Cons- it's kinda far from where we are, but that's just because of where we're staying. Mmmmm, can't wait to go and eat more!! Will take better pictures when we go too!

A couple of benches in the front to sit and scarf down the rolls. One roll was $1.60 and a dozen for $19.60. Inexpensive for the quality. Luckily I opted for 3 rolls instead of the dozen, cuz I would have finished them before getting in the car.

I think the last time was before they changed ownership. Walked in & the vibe was overall different. The store is brighter with music playing . Ive also noticed that they're now on social media, which I'm sire has helped bring in business for them. I went for the special which was the hot pastrami sandwich & I chose Caesar salad for my side. It came on a nice thick bread filled with a generous portion of meat. Really tasty & even though I didnt eat it right away the bread wasnt soggy. I'm really not a salad girlie, but decided that it was a good pairing for that sandwich. If you havent been into stillwells in years, definitely make it back there if you can.

Obviously the big draw at this popular bakery is their sticky treats, cream horns are in 2 sizes and decadent, Hubby loved their fruit tart and the apple slice. Larger cakes are available too. We stopped by for breakfast after dropping off a friend at OGG for an early flight as they were one of the few places open at that time. Hubbs chose the special Island Boy and enjoyed the spam, bacon, soft scrambled egg and French toast combo. Very filling. I opted for the fried egg sandwich with 2 eggs, mayo, cheese and tomato on Rye. I was a little disappointed as it didn't have too much taste of rye with soft bread. It definitely needed hot sauce to pep it up. However it was filling and cooked to order. They also do salads and sandwiches and sell coffee and Hawaiian salt too. We will definitely be back for sticky treats again.
