Best Coffe & Great breakfast! what I love about Kalaheo Cafe is the yummy coffee still served in a beautiful mug (request the mug) and strawberry cake (when they haven't run out) my breakfast sandwich: the longboard, they'll toast it if you want it that way... i love the ambience, food and courteous service my late husband loved loved loved their sticky buns, and once I tried them, I understood why... when I have the time to sit down, I don't want a paper cup... the art on the walls and the art on the table- the pretty mugs & thoughtful food make me enjoy time there with friends and even solo. read more

The tourists who recommended Kalaheo Cafe & Coffee to us were definitely onto something. It's a convenient stop on your way to Waimea Canyon. The set up is casual and straightforward; you get in line, order at the counter, and then find seating yourself. This place gets busy fast, so prepare for a wait during peak hours. As it was our first visit, we went off recommendations and ordered the Bacon Eggs Benedict and the French Toast with a black coffee and a latte. If you like bacon, order the Bennie. They do not skimp! The French toast is decedent, too. Very thick, very filling. Their coffee was amazing and the prices seemed fair for the island. I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try if you're visiting the area! read more

DO NOT COME HERE UNLESS YOU WANT GREAT FOOD!! FINALLY found a place on this island that knows how to make top notch breakfast AND Coffee. Moved from Maui and the last month and a half has been nonstop disappointment trying every place around the island. Others need to come here and take note of how to make food and coffee and the prices of it. read more

Girlfriend and I were pretty hopeful for this place but it was one of the bigger letdowns from our trip. We opted for the Kahlua Pulled Pork Sandwich, and it was mediocre at best. The sammich just didn't pack the level of flavor that one would expect. It came with a side of fries, which were actually not bad and pretty tasty. They were a little on the oily side but honestly, I wasn't even mad at that since I needed some flavor to come from somewhere. Food aside, the vibe of this place was definitely off. The person taking our order did not seem the be the friendliest person and came off rather stand-offish. Lastly, buyers beware. If you let it be known that you will be splitting a food item, they will charge you an additional $2.50. Typically, when places do this, it comes with a larger portion for each split of the dish, but this was not the case for us. They took the normal portion, charged as the additional fee, and have us no extra food. 2/5 and would not come back. read more

Very few breakfast places open on Sunday. Thank goodness this was a good one. Parking can be extremely challenging so be prepared to park on the road. Making sure you order food before you grab a table since people who already ordered are likely to be waiting for a space to open up. Service is good but you can tell they don't want you hanging around talking so enjoy but make it snappy. read more

Lunch with a dear friend at Kalaheo. Just lovely! Great food - I had salmon eggs Benedict with brown rice - Jamie had a lunch tofu bowl and Clifford had a pastrami sandwich on flat bread. Great coffee too! Macadamia chocolate coffee! Order at the counter, get a number, grab your drinks and get a table. The food is brought to you. Very comfortable cafe with the owner on site! Recommended! read more

Tried the Father's Day special--steak and eggs with a potato pancake and corn muffin. Although I requested medium, the steak was well done. I was informed that the steaks are pre-cooked, and what I received was considered medium. Friend ordered the Local Boy Platter; the hashbrowns were crunchy and tasty. Service was average, but the casual ambiance made for a comfortable meal. When I arrived around 7:08 AM, there was a line, though a separate line for takeout and coffee orders helped keep things organized. read more

My best friend recommended this for brunch!! We went out of our way to eat here and so glad we did!! Located in a mini-strip mall with ample of parking. There was a line but it was quick. Customers place their orders and find their own seating. Wait staff delivered your order. The Green Smoothie was so deliciously refreshing!! Wanted more. Could not taste the flavor of Macadamia in the coffee but it was still a good brew. Strong. Kalaheo had one of the best Moco Loco compared to the other Hawaiian Islands. Patty and gravy well seasoned. Best brown rice as not overcooked, tender, and fluffy. Kahili Breakfast was delicious with plenty of Portuguese sausage. Very tasty!! Would definitely recommend and go back if in Kauai again. read more

RIP OFF!! This place charged us $2.50 to split our meal, meaning cut in half and put on separate plates. That is absolutely insane! We didn't need that if it was going to be an extra charge. Unfortunately, I didn't notice until I was handed my receipt because THEY DON'T TELL YOU. The guy who took our order was rude and wouldn't reverse the charge. My guy and I split the Kahlua Pulled Port Sammich. It was bland and disappointing. Fries had some flavor, but they were dripping oil. They definitely cheated us on the amount of fries we got as well because looking at other people's plates, they got way more than we did. AVOID!! read more

Was tired of resort food and decided to give this place a try as it was very popular with yelp reviews. The food was amazing! Ordered the benedict with portuguese sausage and the char siu pork belly special. Both were fantastic and we were very satisfied with our meal! The pork belly was so flavorful 10/10 would come back for that! Came around 7:15am on a sunday and there was no wait and plenty of seating. read more

I wasn't a huge fan of this place like I wanted to be. The place was super busy, inside and outside seating and the staff was friendly which is always a plus but the food didn't do it for me. It was on the pricier side with mediocre tasting food. The coffees were 4.5/5 so I'll give it to them there. The loco moco was a 3.5/5 but the breakfast platter was a 3/5. The pancakes had a cinnamon taste to it and I am not a fan. The rest of the food was okay. Probably would have preferred somewhere else for the price we paid. read more

This is our favorite breakfast spot on the island! The food is fresh and delicious, and the coffee is amazing! The staff is always helpful and patient. The place itself is not far from Kōloa and Poipu, where we usually stay, and has a great casual but authentic feel to it. It just gets very busy the later you wait for breakfast, so I recommend going a bit early. (Parking is also somewhat limited). Mahalo to Kalaheo Cafe for always making our trip worth it! read more

I never leave reviews, but this place absolutely deserves one. I've been in Hawaii for a week, and this was easily the best food I've had the entire trip. It was so good that I came back the very next day. The Eggs Benedict is hands down the best I've ever had, and the lattes and fresh coconut were amazing too. Everything tasted fresh and was cooked perfectly. The staff made the experience even better. Everyone was welcoming and friendly, especially the guy with the long curly hair. He was incredibly kind, had a great sense of humor, and made us feel right at home. If you're anywhere near Kalaheo, do yourself a favor and stop here. I can't recommend this place enough. Five stars all the way. read more

A small gem worth going back to when we arrived too late on the first try, we enjoyed our lunch in the deck very much (despite traffic noise). I had the lunch special of Fresh Grilled Ahi on a buttered flatbread with melted shredded cheese, black bean corn salsa, chipotle aioli, lettuce and tomato. For my side I chose plain fries. With iced tea, it was a perfect lunch! You order inside, and the items are brought to your table. I found access quite easy with my Walker. And the restroom was spotless. read more

Absolutely amazing. Great coffee, great breakfast, great sweets, great customer service. No notes.

A perfect place to fuel up on the way to Waimea Canyon!!! We thought we ate way too much but turns out the hike would take every bit of our energy. My husband had the Kahili breakfast and I ordered the loco moco, both paired with griddle corn muffins. If I were southern I'd be going "My word!" Both plates contained heaping portions of deliciousness. The corn muffin was halved and grilled, accentuating out the toasty corn flavor. His potatoes were topped with caramelized onions. My loco moco had the smoothest gravy; no soy sauce needed. Service was fast and friendly. Our empty plates were bused immediately. We also loved the relaxed family friendly ambiance. Many little kiddos (they provided booster seats). Unintrusive background music. We will be back! read more

Cute local spot with diverse options for breakfast and outdoor seating available. We ordered the roasted veggie bowl with corn muffin, daily breakfast special omelette (which had kalua pork, onions, and spinach and came with banana bread), and half papaya with yogurt. The papaya was extremely fresh and ripe. The food was all delicious, although the hashbrowns could have been crispier. read more

Great breakfast here on a late Sunday morning. Kind staff who are helpful with first timers. They have a very efficient system of ordering and helping you get a table. There are tables inside and outside. Be prepared to wait a bit but staff helped us get a table. Coffee and food were excellent. The pancake might have been the best I have ever had. Great flavor and fluffy! The egg, wrap with Portuguese sausage and Monterey Jack cheese was so good too! All food coming out from the kitchen looked good! Would come back to try more if we lived close by. read more

If you have young children, I wouldn't recommend this spot. The line was long, and despite there being plenty of open tables, we were not allowed to sit down until we had ordered and received a table number. While my husband was waiting in line to order, I walked toward an empty table with our children and was immediately told we couldn't sit there yet. Later, another employee came looking for me to ask for our table number. With small children, it's much safer and easier to have them seated while one parent waits in line rather than standing around in a crowded restaurant. The policy felt unnecessarily rigid, and the way it was enforced came across as unwelcoming. I've never had a restaurant make such an issue out of sitting at an empty table while actively waiting to order food. Unfortunately, the food itself was just okay, so the overall experience was disappointing. read more

Our favorite breakfast place when we are in Kauai. Great food, great coffee, friendly folks. Get there early because the parking lot tends to fill up. read more

Great food, atmosphere and not expensive. Our service was excellent. When we return to Kauai later this year we will be coming back.

Definitely a good spot for coffee and breakfast. If you not used to ordering first and sitting, y'all weird. Signs everywhere for tell you what for do, I no understand some people when they make one fuss about it. Shut up and go with the business flow, if you no like it, go somewhere else. Sorry this has to be said as I was waiting to order, the unnecessary stuff I hear as I'm waiting in line out the door is crazy. Staff are so nice even though it's freaking crazy. Be nice if you come cuz they are so awesome. Can't go wrong with bacon, eggs, and rice. Haha! read more

After our long hike, we found a small cafe in Kauai. Even though the work day was almost over for the employees of the restaurant, the service was excellent.

We left happy and ready to continue the day.we also liked the ambiance Shout out to Sandie N and Kristina F read more

Loco moco, pancakes, eggs, Portuguese sausage, coffee. All of it great and friendly staff. Good place for breakfast. Would go again

Absolutely horrible experience. My family and I were waiting in line to order and my grandpa (who got a knee replacement) two weeks ago wanted to sit down. The workers proceeded to yell at him that he wasn't able to sit down until he ordered - my brother made the workers aware that he had just gotten a knee replacement and the workers proceeded said "doesn't matter, he can't sit down until he has a ticket. there's all these people waiting in line." not one sentence was said or worded kindly. not sure who raised that worker to think it was acceptable to treat an elderly person like that, especially one who just had a major surgery and is unable to stand for long periods of time. mind you, our whole finally was waiting in line like everyone else. horrible establishment and the absolute rudest workers I've ever encountered. read more

Unpleasant staff. Especially the guy behind the counter, very rude and unpleasant to deal with. I ended up walking out before eating. Prices are excessive. read more
