Service here was great. Called to place an order to pick up the food was ready upon arrival. I ordered the split pea soup. Well seasoned cooked to perfection. This is honestly the best split pea soup I've had before. It's seriously that good! Also i tried the Korean burger. I've never had this type of burger before so i don't know what to compare it to. I do think it's too much going on with the burger it's like grilled vegetables etc on top of a patty, not sure what the patty was made of but it was super hard i could hardly break it apart with my hands. I don't care to have this burger ever again, it was good nice flavors, but nothing impressive that i must have this again. But if i could have that split pea soup everyday i would! read more

Went for date day sunday brunch. Healthy vegan vegetarian spot. Parking: Street its a small place with a few table tops and bar stools. You can buy premade food to go or get drinks and hot foods prepared. i didn't ask if there was wifi available. got a golden milk without expresso and was delicious. Got the egg scramble (pictured) which was DELICIOUS. It was like eating yellow egg dumpling texture deliciousness! there was so much flavor, and all the flavors complimented each other. There was enough chew textures between the foods so it all didn't taste like mush in your mouth...thats a good thing. the bread, if it was unleavened bread, not sure, (I should have taken a picture of the menu, oh well) was amazing. it has the texture like a thick pound cake biscuit and soaked up all the sauces. I can't wait to try the other foods read more

Living in a state that isn't too health conscious or even knowledgeable about diets outside of the local cuisine, its really difficult to find a place specific to vegan diets. This was my first time trying juicy brew ! It has a very small seating area so I'd recommend taking out. Basically you order at the counter and find somewhere to self seat. That's the only downside of eating here, you're not actually being served so its confusing if its your first time. The Loco Moco was great ! The mushroom gravy compliments the "meaty" texture of the patty. In place of a runny egg is a tofu scramble (what vegan doesn't love a tofu scramble?!). I look forward to coming back to try something new ! Also, I'm not vegan but I enjoy vegan food and clean eating. If you've ever been skeptical about trying vegan food this place will convince you that its worth a try ! read more

Juicy Brew - Loco Moco. - Vegan Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I stumbled upon juicy brew after a great surf session with some friends. I normally wouldn't have picked out a vegan place, I was really craving some eggs and bacon. My first choice was a cafe in kakaako, egghead which was closed. My surf friend who is vegan recommended juicy brew and oh am I glad she did. I had the brunch wafflewich and a latte with chai syrup. Both were amazing. The waffle was great, definitely better than my attempts at home (how did it do this without eggs???). I'm not honestly sure what was in the wafflewich but it was delicious and really hit the spot. Totally redefining my concept of what vegan food can be. Next time I really want to go back and try the loco moco it looked soooo good! read more

Casserole and ginger ale drink was so good!! The staff was courteous and helpful. Highly recommend! Great food and service!

I am a big believer in supporting small businesses that deserve it, and this one definitely deserves it. The food is amazing, the "Salmon" Burger is the best plant-based burger I have ever had, and I have had quite a few. They also have convenient curbside pickup to help adjust to the COVID situation. Most importantly they have incredibly kind staff and great customer service. I wish them all the best and success because they deserve it. Mahalo for providing the community with amazing food and service. read more

My wife and I tried this place for the first time and we loved it. You wouldn't believe the mushroom melt is vegan. The healthy burrito was also amazing. You gotta try this place! read more

My favorite place to eat! The food is so yummy and original. I've tried almost everything on the menu and it's all delicious!

THE most amazing food I've placed in my mouth!!! Omg! That sh*t was fantastic! Wow! I got the "Korean Fried Chick'N." It was so damn good! I literally used my fingers to eat every morsel of this sandwich! Crumbs and veggies! I will definitely be back. So glad I stumbled upon this place today. I was also so happy to know that I was supporting women chefs and local farmers. We have to stay conscious of where we put our money. I love supporting women and locals so it was a win win for me. I'll be back! read more

When on Oahu, this is a fave of mine. The one reviewer who criticized for use of plastic, needs to get a grip. She has no idea what the owner of this company does to minimize their carbon footprint. Unfortunately, it's not as easy as just "going plastic free" for restaurants; but unless you're in the business, you wouldn't know that, which makes the review that much more ridiculous. The best part about her review was that she publicly blasted the restaurant here, and then got upset when the owner publicly defended their business on social media. What do you expect? Had you gone to the owner FIRST, they wouldn't have had a reason to publicly defend themselves and you wouldn't be looking like the back side of a horse. Juicy Brew, thank you, first and foremost, for being a vegan restaurant; and thank you for all that you do behind the scenes, that we do not see, to help the animals and the planet. read more

Delicious food and the kindest employees! I told them I was in a bit of a rush to catch a flight, while they were slammed during the lunch rush. The woman helping me offered to wrap up my order and when I opened it up I saw she had written, "safe travels!" Very sweet! You can taste the love in the food! Thank you! read more

Good Vegan food, friendly staff, and a cool vibe! A good option when I feel like switching up my day to day. The hot sauce on the breakfast sammie was good and I think next time I'll get something other than the turmeric latte. It was good but Not my cup of tea. Will be back read more

I started going to Juicy Brew with my bf, Andy, on weekends, and this place blew me away. I started when they were making these great "Wafflewich" meals with sauces so awesome, and changing it up the next week with a sauerkraut one with creative touches and deep soul quenching flavors. I give them a 5 because they are 100% VEGAN, THEY CHANGE THE SPECIAL MENU UP every Weekend, and even the containers in the open fridge are delish. They have my Ilima & Hale Aina Award for BEST! I'm a Honolulu local, not from San Fran. read more

I been there a few times, honestly I think the food is overpriced, I don't want to pay 14 bucks for a cold meal in a plastic container, or heat in microwave... tastes good but nothing special, I know sometimes is difficult to find vegan options. But this is just meh... the only thing that is worth is the mochi... but also they should look for more eco friendly package, I almost don't buy it because they use that plastic wrap... read more

Not a Vegan but wanted to eat healthy. This is a great place! I had the Loco Moco they make and it was delicious. Also brought one of their burritos for later . Will be back for sure! read more

The food here is freshly pre-made in a deli thing that you can pick up and go. If you wish they will heat it up in a quick oven and dine in this little place. So it's not really a restaurant like I thought it was going to be. Had the cranberry jackfruit tuna melt and it was very delish! read more

Came into this restaurant for the first time. The staff was friendly but I didn't end up ordering anything because I was told that all I was able to choose from was what was behind the glass case at the front of the store. I was really looking for a meal to sit down and enjoy. read more

This place is jam-packed with talent and creativity. I love the rotating menu. This restaurant has definitely helped facilitate in enabling me to have a more plant-based diet. I hope they stay in business forever. read more

Soba noodles + turmeric latte. Trust Don't let the understated look of this place + the food fool you. Freaking AMAZING. read more

This restaurant is a grab-and-go type counter that has pre-packed vegan and vegetarian food which is convenient for those who want to eat healthier. We opted to eat in. The service was wonderful, and the staff was very accommodating. We had the vegan burrito which was pretty good and they heated it for us. Also ordered the somen salad which would have been good with a little stronger flavored sauce and the Roobios elixer drink. We also tried the local plantain mochi. read more

When I contemplate moving off island I think of all the things that I would miss. Number one on my list is the food on Saturdays and Sundays at Juicy Brew. Juicy Brew is by far my favorite vegan restaurant on Oahu. Locally sourced ingredients and a creative menu that changes every weekend. You won't find a better group of kind hearted, hardworking individuals running any other restaurant on earth. I love this place so much... the food... the people... it never gets old. I'm constantly blown away week after week, seeing the dishes they create and sampling all the delicious flavors. Eat here. Love you Juicy Brew. read more

Looking for delicious, healthy, well made vegetarian/vegan food? This is it. I finally made it and I'm going back again this week to try more of their amazing food. I eat meat/fish too but given the choice I prefer to eat vegetarian (I was 100% veggie for 10 years) and this place is everything I look for in a vegetarian restaurant. I grabbed the Moroccan stew to go with a side of rice. I forget all the vegetables in there - chickpeas, carrot, kale (or chaya?), cassava and other veggies. Very wholesome and filling. Prices are on point for this quality food and great flavors. read more

I have passed this place a hundred times thinking "Hmmm, a coffee joint I should check out sometime", not knowing the true treasures that this tiny little shop holds. Then on this one fateful day, I had time to kill and as I was driving by, there was a lone parking stall available right in front of the shop and I found myself pulling into it. Now, I usually ALWAYS check a place out on Yelp first and actually PLAN first-time stop-ins but this was one time that was totally spur-of-the-moment and boy, was I glad for it! I walk in and find a display case full of pre-packed foods and drinks and as I scan it I realize that I was looking at a trove of vegan and vegetarian goodies! This was fate! If you've read any of my previous reviews, you'd know that i'm always in search of vegan and vegetarian fare so that I know of where to find them whenever i'm in that particular area. I wanted to grab one of everything here but I finally decide on trying a number of things that would tie my over throughout the weekend: vegan pasta marinara, vegan polenta with gravy mushrooms and veggies, soba salad and some blueberry tapioca (that the owner so kindly packed fresh for me straight from the kitchen). Then to my absolute delight, I find that they sold Golden Milk Lattes here! That was a definite must because i'm turmeric obsessed. Needless to say, I was pretty stoked leaving this place and totally excited to try my all the goodies over the weekend. I was not disappointed one bit. Everything I picked up here was amazingly delicious! As for that latte, simply heavenly. I only wish there were more parking stalls available (although i'd gladly walk blocks to get here if I had to). The menu is ever changing and the choices are extensive so it's totally worth it. You don't even have to be vegan. They've got organic meat items too. I can't wait to come back again and again to try more! read more

OMG I loved going to Juicy Brew! I think cute little Whole-IN-The-Walls are beyond awesome and Juicy Brew lives up to that! I decided to come here with a girlfriend who accompanies me on my quest of trying out restaurants around Oahu. I ordered the vegan tofu quiche with hash.... WOW, yummy! The quiche was well seasoned and oh so smooth, the hash, just as perfect. The best part is that it was gluten and dairy free. It's so awesome when you can find a spot that fits your dietary needs and you don't feel like you're missing out. The service was spot on and they made the meal sit in and eat friendly for me. Most of their items are packaged for to go service but they will heat it up for you if you want to stay and eat! I grabbed a gluten/dairy free blueberry mochi on my way out and it sealed the "this is an awesome spot" deal for me! read more

Impressed! Today was the first time I got to try the food here and OMFG! I was blow away at how flavorful everything was. I had the Breakfast Sammie and omg it hit the breakfast sandwich spot! I was also glad to drink the coffee jelly (vegan boba) I haven't had that in almost 5 years! I also loved the mochi! Happy to discover vegan goodness more and more these days! I will definitely be back and I highly recommend vegans and non vegans to check them out! read more

I went there with some coworkers, not knowing this place was vegan. I got the soba noodles with tofu. It was absolutely delicious. 10/10 would eat here again. The flavor was exceptional and the food was filling without being overwhelming. read more

I've reviewed JB before, but this review is for the catering they did for my baby shower. My friends know I'm a loyal customer at Jbrew so didn't have to think twice about where to order the food for my surprise baby shower. Our spread included vegan quiche, pad Thai, jackfruit baos served with spicy vegan aioli and tofu poke. They worked with Chris, one of the Hee sisters to put together the menu and I was absolutely delighted when I found out they catered from one of my favorite vegan restaurants. Being the only vegan, I had no worries that the rest of the girls were gonna love the food, and every single one of them devoured and enjoyed every dish. Everyone raved how tasty the food was and how the jackfruit was a great substitute for traditional pork. I'm glad the girls had fantastic vegan food and didn't once notice the absence of animal protein or products. Now I know where to cater all my party food for any occasion!! read more

Biscuits and gravy was fabulous. Enough for 2 people. They will heat the fridge items for you if you want to dine in. Go early, We arrived at 1230 and they already ran out of most items. Can't wait to try the loco moco. read more

I was there this past week and one of the girls working there said to the other that there is dish detergent in the prepared food. And she put disgustingly scented synthetic chemicals heavily at their station all over their floor, which smelled worse than the rest of the lobby. I didn't expect a vegan/natural foods place to be using such products, it is contradictory and I wouldn't trust that their food or drink preparation is sound based on her excessive synthetic chemical usage. Their worker who used all those synthetic carcinogens heavily at the place should continue working at a business more suitable to her inclination to use toxic, scented products instead of in natural foods. Food she handled would certainly be contaminated, and so she should be working at another place instead of the cafe. read more

You guys are really making a great job feeding the meat eaters some vegan food. My favorite so far is this ulu salad with cranberries, carrots, cashews, and miso. Was having a bad day and this just made it better. read more

Juicy Brew - Ulu salad - Vegan Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

It's so hard to find good vegetarian in this town. And the decent places serve vegetarian trying to be meat dishes; e.g., overuse of seitan, TVP, and salt! In delightful contrast, the dishes I tried at Juicy were simply good food and flavors that happen not to have meat in them. The vegetable bowl was a combination of various beans and vegetables with some pickled to give it a nice zing. It wasn't so green that you felt like an ungulate chewing its cud, and it was satisfying. I also tried the vegan loco moco. I know, I just snobbed "meat replacement" foods, but the vegan loco moco was not trying to be its meaty doppelgänger. Instead it successfully represented the concept and flavors. If you didn't know it was a "loco moco" you'd like it anyway for what it was. The only black mark this place gets is for service. The ladies behind the register were nice, but totally clueless about the menu, food, and how to work the register. One customer almost lost his cool. Still, even with the same service, I'd be back. UPDATE: One of the Chefs reached out to me on this review and apologized for the service. I upping my review to 5 stars! Reaching out and letter us know they're working on it is great customer service! read more

As good as it gets is right! I am happy to drop $30 on 3 items and get 5 meals out of them. J Brew has the ono vegan grinds & gives the people what they want! Dope lattes, Christmas dinner to gos, and random counter muffins/breads read more

Just a vegan from Dallas that stumbled upon this wonderful place. The Loco Moco literally rocked my taste buds. Soooo good and well portioned. I eat a lot but could only eat half at one time. I also tried the jackfruit chili, lemon poppyseed muffin, and antioxidants juice..all was good!! I would definitely recommend to all vegans visiting the island. read more

Food at this place is awesome! Sandwiches and tofu soba noodles was so good....you gotta try the ginger cookies! Service was great....no complaint. Will be back again. read more

Juicy Brew is a hidden gem, vegan/plant based coffee shop and brunch restaurant. There is nothing quite like juicy brew, it is 100% plant-based and offers many gluten-free options. There is easily something for everyone. Before coming to Honolulu, I had looked for any vegan/gluten-free restaurants and this one stood out, not only because of the many glowing reviews, but also because of their unique take on common and or local foods. Needless to say, I was extremely excited and had high expectations. I went in one morning around 9:30am, hoping to get something for breakfast. They had a myriad of burritos and sandwiches (vegan, but not gluten-free), as well as other dishes including Asian noodles, bento boxes, faux Mac and cheese, and other meals. After looking for a minute, I decided on a tofu musubi (vegan, no added gluten) and a mint chocolate cookie (vegan, no added gluten). Disclaimer, I've never had real musubi before so I can't accurately compare it, but it was in my opinion delicious! The flavors were all evident but blended seamlessly. The cookie was amazing as well, it blew my mind that it was vegan AND gluten-free. Un-freakin-believable. Naturally, I made time to come again during my stay. The second time, I tried a local kalo black sesame mochi and to no surprise, it was out of this world. Last, I came by and actually got a cup of coffee. I ordered an 8oz almond milk cappuccino which cost $3.75 (very cheap compared to other coffee shops nearby). The foam wasn't as tight as I normally like and the espresso tasted bitter. The staff was friendly and I'm sure would have been very informative had I needed to know anything, however like I said, I researched this place extensively before coming. Although the coffee was disappointing, it is worth stopping by for the vegan meals/treats and friendly faces. read more

Ate here for a big healthy breakfast after my morning workout and before a Koko head hike. Acai bowl wasn't going to cut it, I wanted heaping portions and savory taste. Juicy Brew did not disappoint!!! Been eating vegan for awhile but this food has to be the best heartiest vegan food around. Could eat here everyday! Parking sucks but it's worth it if you can find a spot. read more

Juicy Brew - Vegan hash...yum!!! - Vegan Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

This review is based solely on service. I walked into Juicy Brew as a friend had told me it was very good. I wanted to order a coffee to go. The bell rang as I walked in to notify staff in the back a customer was there. I waited several minutes and no one came to the front. After several minutes a staff member came from the back walked towards with me never asking if I had been helped and started arranging muffins and stocking things. After a few minutes of me standing there patiently to order, a couple walked in after me and immediately were greeted by the staff member. She walked behind the counter to assist them. I decided to leave never receiving a greeting or anyone taking my order. I left quite confused as to what had just happened. Not sure if I'll try them out again. There's a ton of other great coffee spots in the Kaimuki area that don't make you feel invisible. read more

Eat plants here. If I could come here daily I would. Alas, I live 2000 miles away. Keep the changing menu changing.

Came here on a weekend and got the Carrot Cake waffle. Simply divine! I've never heard of a carrot cake waffle before. I had to get it. Lots of other things I want to try here later like tapioca, cold squeezed juice, etc. Parking might not be easy. I had parked further east at another business on Waialae and walked down. A really small place with limited seating. I'll be back. read more
