“We were planning a destination wedding in Kauai and needed a wedding cake and a groom's cake. I contacted Ko Bakery and they were quick to respond and answer all my questions. I sent a couple of pictures of my ideas and the cake arrived exactly as pictured. It was delicious. They even made arrangements to have it delivered to the restaurant so all we had to do was enjoy our day, show up at the restaurant, and eat cake! I would highly recommend this bakery.“
“Absolutely the BEST malasadas on Kauai!!! Before coming to Kauai Bakery, we tried Passion Bakery (small, expensive, so-so flavor) and Island Craves (tough, day old and small, not much flavor). Kauai Bakery has very fresh, moist and flavorful malasadas. They're also good sized and inexpensive ($1.50 for plain sugar or cinnamon sugar!). Delicious!!!! Similar in freshness, taste and size to the malasadas at Tex-Drive In on the Big Island.Friendly, wonderful, people....family owned. The best! Don't go anywhere else but here!Parking: The bakery is on an outside edge of a shopping mall, next to n entrance. Lots of parking!“
“Chun P. and I shared a delicious slice of lilikoi chocolate cake here, and some tasty lattes. There are limited seating options, but we sat at a table outside and Chef Orly Yadao came out to chat with us. He was very kind and we were a little star-struck to meet the Food Network star in person (Sugar Dome, Halloween Wars, Cookie Wars)! Definitely stop by this lovely bakery if you are in Kauai.“
“Combination of grocery store, bakery, and restaurant. Frequented by old ladies and young male workers -- positive indicators of quality and value.We got a small marinated pork ($8), custard pastry, and sticky rice for a total of $12.Pork was super flavorful though I was unable to identify anything.The custard pastry was mind-blowing.“
“What an unassuming and sumptuous space! Minimalism finds its resonance here in a space that feels like a pilates studio evolved into a retro, elegant café.The matcha is vibrant, balanced, and smooth. The service is fast and clean. The menu design itself is a thing to behold.We are planning on returning enough times in 4d to get a free cup of coffee after buying 10.An unexpected gem!“
“Found this very busy sandwich shop and decided to stop for a late lunch. It is located in the interior of the shopping center. There is plenty of parking out front and a short walk to the entrance.Lots of sandwichs, salads, and daily soup selections to choose from. We ordered a turkey, bacon sub sandwich, a tuna avocado sandwich without bread, and a cup of corn chowder.Waited about 15 minutes for the sandwiches to be made and sat inside the smaller dining area to eat them. Everything tasted delicious and fresh. Will definitely return in the future for other sandwiches to try.“
“The store is clean, bright and stocked very well like any Safeway, Vons or Albertsons. Your Vons club rewards work in Safeway. The food items provided in the aisles gave customers lots of options. Check out the special local options like Kōloa rum, Hawaiian juice, fresh poke or Hawaiian chips. This store has great parking and we loved it. Prices were kind of high on a few items.“
“Nice small local bakery in Lihue across from Kauai Community College. Decent selection of unique baked goods and pastries to start your morning. Food tasted great and delicious overall...certainly did not disappoint at all. And the prices are reasonable.“
“Absolutely loved the coffee here! Espresso is nicely roasted and shines through whatever beverage you get! The service is fantastic and very friendly! The sleeper beverage here is definitely the chai, a must try in my opinion. If you’re in the area stop by Eden Coffee!!!“
“A Must-Visit for Authentic Kauai Coffee and TreatsThis cafe is the best place to grab authentic Kauai coffee. The staff is wonderful and adds to the welcoming atmosphere. Don't miss out on their white chocolate macadamia nut cookie - it's absolutely delicious. A perfect spot for coffee lovers and anyone looking for a tasty treat.“
“This place serves great food but it's a little pricey. One suggestion I have for the owners is to improve the customer service provided by the staff who take orders. The ladies who take orders are sometimes rude or appear annoyed. They don't have to be friends with the customers, but it wouldn't hurt to be kind and friendly.“
“Absolutely fabulous passion fruit and cheese danish. Would return for that absolutely! I hesitate to say that the chocolate croissant I also got had too much butter because I know that’s a very key component of any croissant, but it did seep out of the croissant when I squeezed it. I will be returning for the passion fruit but maybe not for the chocolate croissant. Wonderful regardless.“
“Came to Kauai on our honeymoon and wanted to try a local coffee shop. Pastries were very good! Their customer service though was the best! Loved how friendly and helpful they were. The cook was dancing and singing as he made the breakfast sandwiches! If you go on a Malasada day, get there early to avoid a line or a wait.“
“Lappert's is a great local chain of ice cream shops in Hawaii. They have homemade flavors you will not find anywhere else. Plus, it is relatively inexpensive compared to most Hawaiian fare. We went to the Koloa Landing Lappert's and it was fantastic.“
“Not just a bakery! They also have great gifts. Excellent locally owned place.I’ve been going to sugar skull for about three years now. Alfred & Maren are the owners and they’re both super friendly, helpful, and professional. As far as baked goods, I like their caramel bars, brownies, coconut bars, cookies, and pumpkin bread (when it’s autumn). My husband likes their cheesecakes and they made him a delicious custom cheesecake.As the years have passed they’ve expanded their gift selection and they have a bunch of great local gifts and kid’s gifts in store. They’ve quickly become my first stop to get gifts for my kiddos or a place to get gifts to send to family on the continent/abroad.Kid-friendliness: So many great gifts for the kiddos and they also carry locally made baby food pouches.“
“Cute vibes, delicious food, kind staff, and right on the beach! Ordered an everything bagel with jalapeño and artichoke cream cheese, breakfast sandwich, and a bunch of their pastries - everything was 10/10. Coming back for their banana pudding…must visit for breakfast if you’re staying at the Royal Sonesta or Marriot.“
