    Secret Spot Honolulu was within a five minute walking distance from the hotel I was staying at. Didn't get a chance to try the breakfast or dinner but I did get to try the latte -- definitely one of the best that I've had. Affordably priced and good latte! Staff were very friendly and kind; lovely experience. Very trendy and chill ambience. Looking forward to trying breakfast next time along with my latte! ***** SECRET SPOT HONOLULU ***** FIVE STARS

    They had all these cool arts all around the cafe.It was very beautiful

    I came to this place for breakfast and also at night for live music and cocktails. Let's start with breakfast, I ordered morning feast which came with salad, eggs, bacon, sausage, toasts and fruit. It tasted healthy but i believe it was a bit overpriced. Service was great and employees are very attentive. They have very cozy interior with small stage. I found out that the have live band at night so I have decided to come back again at night. I ordered old fashioned and it was very good. I also got complimentary popcorn. Music was great, food was good. Will be back.

    Came in looking for a cafe offering seating to do some computer work from. Found it, and it also came with friendly service, and a happy hour that starts at noon. Win win win ***Fun fact, they have live music nightly 9pm. What did Eat? Pizza and Tai combo on day 1. The pizza could've had a better bite to the crust. Priced at $12 during happy hour. 3/5 stars Ham and Cheese Croissant with side salad on Day 2. The croissant itself was a little small and on the soft side. Didn't feel very fresh. Edible but could be improved. 3/5 Day 3 and 4 stuck to Happy Hour: Grey Goose and Tonic For $5 a glass, you can't beat that. 5/5 stars Food and Beverage aside, Secret Spot is also home to a great collection of art and collectibles. I'm told that most of what's on display is from the personal collection of one of the owners. Tristan Eaton, OG Slick and Dalek are just a few names a recognize and personally collect. I should also mention, they have shop merch that's fly, not your typical coffee shop merch. Overall for me, Secret Spot felt like a little piece of home away from home. I will definitely be coming back whenever I'm on the island. Shout out to the daytime crew i had the pleasure of meeting. They stay on task but still keep a chill and down to earth vibe. Shout out to Dev and Nessa for the hospitality while i was hanging out. Keep up the good vibes Secret Spot crew! Till next time!

    Morning feast with two extra eggs
    Ayro P.

    Not really sure if I would come here again, especially with other options in the area. Food was decent, but not enough to justify the price. First, don't miss the entrance. This is probably why it has its name, but you just need to go up a mini flight of stairs to the right of some escalators. I took the escalators, which goes completely past the floor this place is on, so I ended up taking the elevator back down. Hopefully nobody noticed the unnecessary loop I made. Upon walking in, I was greeted by one of the ladies by the bar, who let me know I could sit anywhere since it was just me. There was some seating I noticed towards the back where it looks like it's meant for live entertainment, but I decided to sit outside at one of the tables up against the sidewalk since it was a nice day. The menu was the design on the table, which I thought was a neat idea, but not really ideal when I have to crank my neck just to see it properly. I had just worked out, so decided to get the Morning Feast over the Avocado Toast since it seemed like more protein, and even added extra eggs despite the price of the add-on. It didn't take very long to come out, but for some reason I was expecting bigger items. The eggs tasted fine, and were cooked exactly as I had asked, over easy. Salad lacked much depth, but the dressing, I think balsamic, did save it a little bit. Sausage was delicious, but I wish there was more that came with the plate. And the toast was just toast. Nothing exciting about it. I used it to clean up the yolk from my eggs to give it some purpose besides just providing carbs. My bill after a 20% tip came out to ~$36.00. For a meal that requires minimal skill to assemble, I thought this was just ridiculous, but makes sense considering it's in the tourist area. Also, it takes a lot for me not to tip 20%, but the service wasn't anything I would consider amazing, especially considering some of the service I've had during my trip. Nonetheless, this place met my minimum requirements. I'm just really having a hard time justifying the price with the food.

    Margaritas
    Meggie T.

    Had a great time at Secret Spot! Music, happy hour, and bites with friends makes it the place to be for a vacation. .Guava margaritas were so tasty! .Mai Tais are a must because of course Hawaii Staff is friendly! Restrooms are not inside the place but are just down the hall

    Guava waffle

    Service was great! No issues there. The ambiance and decor was nice. Food was okay. Not impressed with the avocado toast. Tasted like the avocado was from the Costco spread containers instead of fresh avocados. The guava sauce was yummy, not too sweet. The waffle was just okay, a bit dense for my taste. Not a memorable meal but passes due to location and convenience.

    Solid happy hour from noon until 7:00. Decent drink specials. Lots of live music. Service is lacking in speed but makes up for it in friendliness. It's odd - to open a tab, they require ID and credit card, which they hold on to. We didn't eat here, but the food looked really good from the tables around us.

    Complimentary popcorn snack mix fun people
    Melissa B.

    Fantastic happy hour spot. Great drink and food specials, super friendly service, and they even bring out complimentary popcorn snack mix, which makes it feel extra welcoming right away. It's shady, breezy, and so relaxing... the kind of place you can actually unwind. It's cheaper than shopping and way more fun.

    Let me tell you about my experience at this wonderful place!!! We got dropped off by our Uber and right away, the name of the restaurant caught our eye. As soon as we walked in, I instantly fell in love with the vibe. The lighting, the decorations, the bar area... everything was such a whole mood. We were greeted by the bartender, who let us know happy hour was ending in two minutes and we made it just in time! We ordered the $5 mai tais (we got four of them) and the $5 pizza. Such a good deal, especially since the pizza is normally $15. The menu also looked like it had a lot of great options, so I definitely want to come back and try more. What really impressed me was how much there was to look at inside. The merch was gorgeous and the whole place felt like walking through an art museum -- every corner had something unique and fabulous. It's seriously so Instagram-worthy and selfie-worthy. While we were sitting down, one of the associates even stopped by and offered us free popcorn, which was such a sweet touch. I also noticed there were a few three-legged dogs just chilling and vibing together, which was honestly the cutest sight. There's also a nice little area where you can hang out and listen to live music apparently there's a band every night at 9 PM. I'll definitely be back again soon. Happy hour was such a bang for your buck, especially for Waikiki! And to top off the night, right when we got dropped off, a man handed us some leis and told us "God bless," which was such a kind and wholesome way to start the evening. I loved everything about this place and will definitely be back!

    $10 breakfast special
    Andrea V.

    This was definitely a hidden gem. We stumbled upon this place while looking for a breakfast place our kids would enjoy. I saw a sign that said $10 breakfast and I was sold. The host/servers were super friendly and seated us right away. We were surrounded by cool art and a DJ that brought the vibe to another level. The DJ's set was absolutely amazing and he played some good old songs from the early 2000's that took us back. The food came out quick and did not disappoint. Everything was delicious, fresh, and tasted good. The drinks were tasty and had a good amount of alcohol. The prices were very reasonable and my kids loved their food, which was a plus. Overall great place and a must try!

    Great HH deals
    Rachel L.

    Literally one of my top spots in Waikiki! They have live music every night. Great happy hour deals for both food and drinks. The tourists and locals love it. You get a great vibe all times of the day here with great friendly aloha service.

    Breakfast special "Morning Feast"
    May T.

    Came for a quick breakfast. Cute restaurant with nice setup of tables and chairs outside patio area. We ordered their Morning Feast that came with bacon, 2-eggs, sausages, salads, white bread toasted, and orange slices. Not bad of a taste. American breakfast with a cup of Cappuccino in the morning. Good service and friendly waiters. Everything was served warmed and received our order in timely manner. Enjoyable breakfast while watching people go by on the street.

    Do they allow babies or children?

    Yes children are allowed

    How much does parking cost?

    I don't think they have their own parking. One suggestion is to check rates at the nearby International Marketplace parking lot. Another would be to utilize rideshare or public transportation.

This might be one of the only places in Waikiki open at 4 AM which is perfect if you've just arrived the night before from the East Coast. The inside of the shop feels homey. They have a display case full of pastries along with additional baked goods set out nearby. For my coffee on this morning I decided to go with a coconut latte and then ordered a blueberry malasada while my father went with a custard-filled one. At Maleko, the malasadas are pre-made but not filled until you order which I think is a smart move. I first tried my blueberry malasada and thought it was good. The dough was light and fluffy and the filling had a great flavor. As for my coffee, I have to agree with other reviews that the syrup made it overly sweet. I still drank it, but I definitely would have preferred something less sweet. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again for the malasadas. As for the coffee, I would probably pass unless you prefer your drinks on the sweeter side.

It was less than three dollars including tax, so definitely affordable. The guava filling was great, but the donut itself was kind of bland. If it weren't so cheap, I would have given it three stars.

I will be drooling over this coffee until I return. It has coffee, sea salt caramel, a scoop of ice cream, and black sea salt. Already it sounds delicious and it was. I finished my drink within 5 minutes. I didn't order any food this time, but everything coming out of the kitchen looked delicious. The menu is extensive with plenty of options, making it a great place for brunch whether you're craving something sweet or savory. The café also has a small section selling Island Vintage merchandise, which is fun to browse while you're waiting. If you choose to sit outside, don't be surprised if a few birds decide to join you for breakfast and they're regulars too.. Overall, despite the longer wait for drinks, the quality of the coffee, inviting atmosphere, and tempting menu make this a spot I'd happily visit again.

This is the only standing Kulu Kulu and I hope this place does not close, or if it does relocate, come closer to Central Oahu where the rent is cheaper, haha (hint). This location is on the outer edges of Waikiki on Hobron Lane in Eaton Square. I rarely venture to Waikiki, and if I do make the dreaded drive to "town", this place and Kan Sushi will be the only regular places where I will make my stop(s), because its so worth it. I've had a long-standing love-affair with Kulu Kulu from the Shirokiya Food Court location with it's waffle bears and Hello Kitty waffles, the takeout Nama Chocolate cups stocked at Mitsuwa Marketplace and now here, in town. The Ube Coconut Mousse $6.95 blew our minds, it was THE best tasting thing, ever. Both the ube and the coconut were not cloying, and as with all of their treats, not overly sweet either. That's why I love Japanese pastries, they get the sweetness just perfect and I have no idea how they mastermind that ratio! Strawberry Panna Cotta $5.95 was creamy, flavorful, delicious and surprisingly light and refreshing for such a creamy dessert. I normally don't get this kind of combination of flavors, and it tasted like something you'd get in a Michellin-rated establishment. Looking back at the photos, I see vanilla bean seeds in the panna cotta, so every loving detail and nuance shows through with each mouthful. Nama Chocolate $5.75 is my go-to chocolate LOVE. It's cut into cool creamy semi-sweet squares dusted with cocoa and it melts in your mouth! This is my favorite of all things that Kulu Kulu makes. I actually enjoy this better than the famous Royce Chocolates from Japan. We ordered another seasonal Strawberry dessert slice cake but it was eaten before I could review (and/or taste it); I've heard it was very very delicious. This place is so good that I plan to bring my friends who will be visiting from Virginia here to try their pastries. I also plan to support this business for as long as I can and make more frequent trips to town just to get these amazing desserts.
