    Yep I went back for more. Again buying all flavors of their mochi donuts enough to make 2 dozen this time. Still amazed by how inexpensive it is. Service is always friendly and quick. Small little bakery filled with happiness just off the highway.

    Mochi donut heaven!! Amazing bakery. ***show up early if you want any selection***. We showed up at 6:40am and already 8-10 people in front of us. Donuts are amazing the butter horn was so good. And all the baked goods look great. The people were super sweet. But struggled with order and using machine to process payment. lol. The line moved slow. But so worth it!! Best bakery on island. At least that we tried so far. Cool little bakery with lots of goodies and prices not bad. 2.50 a donut.

    Mochi donuts: taro, lychee, churro, peach

    **Get here early if you want croissants. They tend to sell out around 9-10am** A must visit if coming to Big Island or Hilo. We drove here all the way from Kona twice during our 1 week stay. Our fav is the original taro mochi donut. All the other mochi donut flavors, though good, tend to be too sweet for our Asian taste. The donuts have such a pleasant mochi chewy texture and are very dense! If you have an air fryer, toast them for a bit and they get all hot and crispy--delicious! We also love the pastrami croissants. There's so much meat in them!!

    We enjoyed ourselves at the bakery today. I grew up in this area, so this bakery is very well known. Coming back here after 10 years, the food only got better. Highly recommend trying the mochi donuts or butter rolls. The butter horns are also very soft and delicious. Always great service here and the employees are very friendly. Support small local businesses, so this is great!

    One box of two - hotdog roll, turner over, guava danish, chocolate danish, manju (this was delish - stone cookie batter with azuki inside)

    5 stars all the way...first of all driving up to Bakery you stepped back into time, time literally stands still as you approach the bakery. We got there on Saturday morning and they don't open till 7:30am so we had a little wait, but had like 2 other people in front of us and when we left there was a line out the door (mix of local and tourist). Very small bakery with two showcases, one with their every popular Stone Cookies and the other with limited selection of pastries and mini pies (don't let the limited selection fool you, it was all YUMMY). Prices are reasonable for a baked goods (see picture with prices). We went to initially purchase stone cookies for my mom (those are her favoriet) ended up with bags of stone cookies (they now have a soft version) and 2 boxes of baked goods (which didn't make it down the drive to Hilo). A must is their mini pies and pastries, everything was NOT too sweet and just right, don't let the limited selection fool you, its all worth the wait in line and drive up the mountain. Definitely going back when we on the Big Island.

    So we went to grab coffee nearby after leaving KMC lodge. We want to try stone cookies since it is famous. The woman who is in the registry is really rude. I am a customer asking why i was being over charged for $42 while the cookies i am trying to purchase is only $18. She also entertained the lady on my back while i am still looking if my card was charged for the $42. I am local in Oahu and active military and i never experienced this in other stores. That's not how you welcome customer. I also told her ma'am with all the respect i am just recommending that she needs to pay attention to customers but she was arguing to me instead.

    Heard there were mochi donuts in the Big Island?! Say whaaat. It's located in a little "drive thru" street with small shops around in Mountain View. There's barely any front store parking but there are street and next door shop parkings. My roommate wanted to grab these famous Stone Cookies that her cousin requested for. Not knowing that these bags of cookies were sold LITERALLY everywhere in Hilo (lol), we made the trip down. Luckily, I also found out that they sold mochi donuts! YUM. They actively post on Facebook/Instagram with their donut flavors of the day. It's highly, highly recommended to do call in or DM them on IG (with confirmation and reply from them) because the mochi donuts run out QUICK. Their donuts are really moist (a tad on the sweeter side depending on the flavor) and delicious. They are definitely on par with Oahu and Japan ones! I bought Stone Cookies back to Oahu as souvenir for my friends and family. Tasted a soft (NOT SO SOFT LOL) and chocolate chip (LITERALLY STONE) cookies, and there wasn't much flavor. Tasted like a fortune cookie, tbh. I felt that these cookies are great souvenir gifts to those who enjoy a not-so-sweet plain cookie with their milk or coffee. Mochi donuts here are hands down really good. Definitely worth the trip down and also great for parties! There are other bakery goods but my eyes were only on the donuts and cookies. Will try the other baked goods next time!

At first glance, it may look like other small, local shops, with locally made products and a few interesting goods to browse. (I ended up buying the last 'I'iwi bird pin they had on display, which I loved!) After reading some other reviews, I realized we may have just gotten lucky because the owner happened to be in that day. Let me say this upfront: they advertise slow black coffee and they mean it! The owner (Brian?) takes his time with each customer, chatting with you to understand what you're looking for and making some suggestions. It's clear he enjoys both his craft and engaging with customers. It was not very busy while we were there, which added to that relaxed, Hawaiian vacation vibe. We really enjoyed the conversation with him and even walked away having learned a few new things. We took our coffee and other purchases to enjoy on the bench outside, along with some stone cookies from nearby. (There were also additional tables and chairs available on a side patio.) Overall, we loved both the experience and the coffee, and we will definitely plan to stop by again the next time we are in the area!

The purple tapioca potato pudding was so dense and interesting, really rich and lovely to try.
