They were rude . It was Sunday and they quit setting at 11:15 we were there about two minutes after and were told we should find somewhere else. read more

Once again, I returned to Rockport. And every morning was started at Hula Moon. Some folks may look at it as just another greasy spoon diner. I do not. The service is quick and friendly. Breakfast is made exactly as ordered. But what is special is hearing the locals that stop in first thing in the morning. Such a wonderful atmosphere. Try the Belgian waffles with strawberries and whipped cream. Yum. read more

A cute, cozy restaurant serving homemade, fresh comfort food in a home setting. Food was not exceptional but was fresh and good for a quick meal. Beware, they only take cash or check. read more

Adorable little house turned breakfast cafe. Very tiny with few tables so you might expect to wait if you go during peak summer season. Great service with local down home people - you can tell they genuinely enjoy interacting with the customers. They have several regulars so you know it's good! So cheap too. $5-$8 for a breakfast sandwich or eggs/bacon/hashbrown platter. We will be back. read more

Interesting little breakfast spot in downtown Rockport. The food was above average, the staff was very friendly, so no complaints there. I personally had a spinach egg and cheese breakfast sandwich. It was fine. I felt the bagel was a little lacking. They also don't have glasses of water , so if you order water it comes in a plastic bottle (so wasteful). If you're in town, and there is no wait, I would say stopping by isn't a bad idea, the food was decent enough. If there's a huge wait, I'd check your options in the surround areas. read more

I liked it, I did. This place has a real community feel. Everybody seems to know each other and the warmth and friendliness here is really nice. It is cash only. The place is adorable inside. We came here for breakfast several times. The food is very good as is the coffee. The only thing I did not like is there were a sort of ant invasion, including on the table which was kind of icky. It happened only once. When I alerted someone they were very nice and concerned. I liked them in spite of this and hope it was a one time thing. Prices are very reasonable. The re maybe a wait on weekends. They seem to be very popular. There is ample street parking. Their bacon is awesome..very crispy and very good. read more

Hula Moon Cafe - Blue moon breakfast - Sandwiches Near Me - Rockport, Massachusetts

What a great little breakfast place. The view of the harbor was something. The seating was great. Right by the window. It is so nice of a view and to enjoy a great breakfast makes it all the better. The service here is good considering the size of this place. We ordered as we enjoyed the peaceful morning. Watching a boat load up to go out fishing. Our food came of nice and hot. The best part is the food was great. Great view and great good. If that is what your after this is the best place for that. read more

We had the good fortune to saunter in on their first day reopening. The atmosphere is extremely friendly- reminds me of being home in my own small town. The bacon and sausage were the highlights, for me; excellently cured with a surprising depth of flavor and nuance for what is undoubtedly economically sourced meats. My wife very much enjoyed the eggs benedict, and the toast was, well, it was toast. All in all, the Hula Moon Café is an excellent choice to start the day, though I will admit that a stronger brew might up the anté a tad. Enjoy! read more

Excellent experience - great food, service, and atmosphere. We've lived in town for years and we finally treated ourselves to breakfast here and everything was great. Highly recommend the "Moonrise Breakfast Sandwich" - I had it on a quality everything bagel with sausage and provolone. Can't wait for our next visit! read more

Why does this business still not take credit or debit cards? The answer I was given- "because we don't want to". Ohh? Okay. Not at all customer friendly. read more

Sign says last seat at 11:15 we were turned away for breakfast at 11. Should update your hours or signage.

Nothing good to report here. Undercooked omelette, delivered a whole egg instead of requested egg white omelette, paper plates and plastic utensils. Stop using plastic and polluting the ocean you live on. read more

Fluffiest scrambled eggs in the world Great breakfast no matter what you order! Staff remembers you and helps you order remembering your past orders and they keep the coffee coming! Amazing view of the harbor, sunrise is amazing over the water! Very relaxed atmosphere Thank You! read more

Hula Moon Cafe - Breakfast Table - Sandwiches Near Me - Rockport, Massachusetts

We went on probably one of the busiest times of the year to Rockport - 4th of July week! This is an adorable little restaurant with very limited seating, nice views of the harbor from the tables in the back and very reasonable, delicious menu items to choose from. It did take a while for our breakfasts to come, but the poor young waitress was by herself and occasionally (it seemed like a younger brother) would bring out plates of food. We didn't mind but some around us did. My western omelette on the fabulous anadama bread was wonderful. My hubs was less impressed with the Harvest Moon - french toast with sausage patty. All these little places fill up quickly, but most people understand this and don't take too leisurely a breakfast so that others can sit down and enjoy theirs! read more

Wonderful spot for locals and tourists. Breakfast fare. Reasonable prices and great small-town gathering. Highly recommend!

This is a great little spot in the middle of Rockport, MA. I'm from Hawaii, so it was nice to get a small taste of home. The place was really cute and cozy inside. There were two ladies sitting at the bar area enjoying their morning coffee and chatting with the friendliest people. Got to chat with the owners. Very nice people and service was quick! I had enough time to take a gander around and snap some photos. Didn't get a chance to try the shaved ice, but I'm guessing from the other reviews that it was pretty close (or as close to Hawaii as New England can be). The Kalua Pork Sandwich I had was okay. It wasn't truly authentic, but I enjoyed it. They had salads and other types of sandwiches, but that was about as far as the menu went. They have fruit smoothies as well if you're looking for something to cool you down. All in all, it was a nice place to go and grab a bite outside of the main area. Nice people, decent food, and great location. Quick note: dogs aren't allowed inside, but there is a bench outside for two to sit and enjoy their goodies (in the shade too!). read more

Wow, ignore the hateful reviews. After being seated immediately my girl and I realized it was cash only. We inquired about the nearest atm and the waitress gave directions and told us to come back and pay after eating.WAIT , WHAT? Yea, they do that there. The one waitress was straight out the entire time but made us and others feel welcomed. As it turned out a young family of four picked up our check unbeknownst to us. And oh yea, our breakfast was grand. Fluffy scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, light and airy French toast with a hint of cinnamon. Yum read more

Great socially distanced breakfast with a friend. Owners were so nice. It's in a beautiful space downtown and the food (omelette and hash browns and eggs and meat and toast, plus coffee!) was amazing- huge portions. Thanks for treating me, L! Just a lovely experience in the midst of so much crazy in the world. Felt safe and well taken care of. (I was there before 7, my friend arrived by 7:45, so not busy times). I can not day enough about the kindness of the staff. read more

Delicious breakfast in an iconic town. Outdoor dining is the best. Even during these times when cafes are short staffed, our service was excellent. read more

This is a great place to go and is especially nice in the winter months fir soup and sandwich . Hope you can continue to serve Rockport and much appreciated. read more

F*cking shit Kristin M.! I can't believe you were first to review this. Obviously I was with this bitch when we stumbled in to get shave ice. When I saw the sign, I totally dragged us here to see who else was from Hawaii. The owners have ties, but not locals. Tha's ok, they were the friendliest people and talked to us about Hawaii and all that. They had a decent number of flavors and the ice was ok for the mainland. I'll be back since this is a Rockport local spot and not one of those tourist trap cafes that line the upper part of this street. read more

First off they let me use the bathroom while I was there. Finding a bathroom was the most difficult part of my Rockport trip. I found myself getting coffee at cafe's to be allowed to use the bathroom but that is just a circular problem there. Anyway the lady working there was really nice. I had some dragons blood ice thing. Of course i ordered it for the name. It was huge, I wish I had someone there to share it with. the only thing i didn't enjoy about my trip was overhearing two high school girls flirt with the young man working there. (young man? what? does anyone want to rub bengay on meemaw's arthritis?) I guess i'll stick with young man, i don't know how else to describe him. In the girls defense he was a funny kid. anyway i find most heterosexual flirting a particularly awkward thing to overhear and the fact they were in high school didn't help. So i ate my dragon's blood as quick as possible to escape that scene. but really none of that has anything to do with the place, just my timing. 5 Stars to you Hula Moon you are cute and I like you. read more

$7.99 for a grilled cheese and bowl of turkey chili was wonderful on a very brisk day. I got to choose the bread and cheese for the sandwich. The chili was extremely flavorful and rich but not hot. My style. The service was really excellent too. read more

This is my favorite lunch or dinner place in Rockport. It makes a great date spot, especially for dinner because the back dining room has lovely views of the water. When the sun is setting you can share a meal and enjoy the view. The staff is friendly and helpful. The food here is solid and reasonably priced. I have been here 6 or 7 times and I have never regretted it. The shaved ice is a great alternative to ice cream, also on a warm day the lines tend to be less crazy here. I have a great affection for Hula Moon, it's different, romantic, and the food is good. read more

I can write this review not only as a patron of this restaurant, but I was known to make some killer shave ice in my day. ; ) Back in the not-so-glorious days of high school, I worked at Hula Moon for a Summer with my very best friend. There were different owners back then, but the quality of the food has always been really, really good. Take it from someone who's not only eaten it, but prepared it! It's good stuff. I mean, banana macadamia nut pancakes with coconut syrup?? *drool* (My apologies if this isn't on the menu anymore...I haven't seen it lately!) I don't think they make shave ice there anymore, if I'm not mistaken, which is a huge bummer since that was one of the most fun things for customers to watch and eat. But the food on the menu is superb. I recently went in and had a tuna wrap, and even that was amazing! The current owners are so so nice and friendly. It's truly a hidden gem in Rockport. I think a lot of folks focus so much on the seafood-themed restaurants that they overlook Hula Moon, and that's a big mistake! You can get your little carton of fried shrimp anywhere. Go in here and get some kalua pig and that'll change your tune!! read more

We came here on a Saturday at 10am. The waitstaff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. We had a small table looking out towards the water and enjoyed a delicious breakfast sandwich, scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns and blueberry pancakes. Very fairly priced food. Cash only. I thought the bacon and hash browns were a little run of the mill so four stars, but would highly recommend and will return! read more

Clam Chowder, Rueben, Egg Salad, Chili *****. Fresh made food with friendly staff. The only downside is there only room for about 20-25 to sit. Mostly locals eating here, but really happy the family stopped in to eat. read more

Hula Moon Cafe - View is great with friendly staff/owner! - Sandwiches Near Me - Rockport, Massachusetts

This was one of the only non-seafood places we could find on a recent visit to Rockport. It was a welcome respite because neither myself or the wife were really in the mood for more seafood. I order the Hawaiian chicken sandwich - it was very good, but a bit on the small side. The wife got the french onion soup and half of the 'Pele' sandwich - she reported that the soup was delicious. Certainly worth a stop back, but might order an appetizer along with my meal knowing the portion size. Almost forgot - a scarf was left at the table and by the time it was realized they were closed. Luckily we were staying until the next day and we were able to retrieve it then. Thanks to the staff! read more

Really good food, great pricing and sweet, friendly owners. Nice for townies and tourist with the great view in the back room. And yea, the cute son works there too. Excellent soups and sandwiches. Good coffee. read more

I actually stopped in here several times to pick up a blueberry muffin on my walks. The muffins are excellent, and if anything, you should stop there just for them. I also had a benedict here. It was okay. The eggs weren't poached well. Hollandaise was aplenty; not the best I tasted, but good. All the employees were friendly. This is cash only. read more

I came here for lunch one day while doing some Christmas shopping and was pleasantly surprised. There is a small sandwich menu on the back wall and a chalkboard with specials. Nothing too fancy, but definitely satisfying! I had a bowl of French onion soup and was warmed up and filled up. It was perfect. Onions weren't mushy, wasn't too salty...perfect! My bf got the pulled pork sandwich, which left him a bit hungry. It was served on a hard roll, which would have probably filled me up but definitely not him. There is added seating in the back with a great water view, so be sure to take a walk back there! Overall, great spot with good food and a comfortable, cozy atmosphere. read more
