44 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Captain Cook

“Always our first stop for breakfast when we get to the Island.“

“The menu has allergens clearly listed, which was amazing! The owners mother was working and was so excited to tell us about the place and how her daughter used to do the fishing for the restaurant. They still locally source all of their fish!“

“This is by far our favorite breakfast place on the entire island. The view is amazing. The staff is fantastic. The food and coffee are the best that you can find! Each time we come back we buy extra beans just to take home a taste of menehune❤️“

“It was delicious and great service!“

“What an easy 5 star review to write!!! The quality of the coffee here is outstanding as well as kind and fantastic customer service. I tried the dirty coffee and vanilla bean latte (both were delicious!). This is the coffee stop that I can't stop talking about!! My only regret is not going every day of my vacation. I would highly recommend this spot!!“

“Amazing Tacoz with unique sauces! highly recommend!“

“We had an amazing coffee flight tasting. Not only did we have coffee to sample but they did pairing with products that they make from the farm. Justin was our coffee tour guide. He was great. We also did their game trying to identify the oils by smelling them. It was the best experience for coffee tasting in Kailua Kona area. I highly recommend it.“

“Awesome, fresh food with healthy options! And so close to work!! 😁“

“Clean tables, friendly staff, roomy and THE BEST WAFFLE WE EVER HAD!!!! Gotta do the CHANTILLY WAFFLE ! We loved the Big Island Grill so much, we went three times for breakfast during our vacay. Hubby LOVED the Loco Moco. I wish this restaurant existed in our town 💕 and seriously the chantilly waffle deserves an award ⭐️“

“Hands down phenomenal! Rosie was a great server and took great care of us. The lemonade was unbelievably good and the food was top tier. I'm glad that Kealakekua has a restaurant of this caliber. Get the party pack of sauces, you won't regret it.“

“We got the beef bowl and some shave ice and it was so good we decided to get more to go (Curry rice and Spam Musubi) and let me tell you, this place is soo good. Best Japanese Curry I’ve ever had possibly. The seating area had some friendly cats and hens roaming around which honestly added to the experience!“

“Great gelato excellent service.“

“Great gelato excellent service.“

“I was looking up ice cream spots near me during a stay this past week and saw all the glowing reviews and knew I had to try it. Went yesterday a few hours before my flight home and it did not disappoint. I had guava and passionfruit in sweet cream and it was fantastic! So so good. Owner was friendly and nice to chat with :) I only wish I could have tried more flavors but not a bad problem to have ;)“

“I absolutely adore this place and go out of my way to enjoy it“

“Loved the flavors! We had the Lilikoi Sour and the Kona Sunset.“

“Our food was delicious and made to order. Kalua Loco moco was the first for me but so glad I tried it. Husband had the fresh ahi tuna sandwich, cooked great. 👍🏻“

“We stayed at the Marriott and swung in to the coffee shop for breakfast. The drinks were perfect - latte had a nice layer of foam, and a heart to boot. The Ube cold brew was unexpectedly delicious - easy to see why it's a staff pick! We tried two different croffles and honestly I dont know why people make real waffles anymore, when they can have one of these instead. The waffle was PERFECTION, layered and crispy and buttery and chewy in the best ways. I ordered the garlic bread grilled cheese and would eat it every day if I had the chance. The chips were nicely seasoned too! Breakfast sandwich was eaten too fast by my husband to take a picture, but I heard it was good.

2 drinks, 2 croffles, grilled cheese and a breakfast sandwich was $58 before tip. Definitely reasonable considering island pricing (I actually think I pay more for a large latte in Minnesota than we paid here!)

11/10 would recommend - we'll probably go back for breakfast tomorrow!“

“We love this place because the coffee is so good. Staff kind and knowledgeable. They offer a cool mail order service with nice savings to keep you supplied with beans. Great gift shop. A fun time in Naalehu.“

“Underrated place… a hidden gem focusing on quality ingredients. Good place to bring kids to play arcade style games for a very little amount of money. The owners seem like very kind and genuine people. They should be proud of this place. 100% worth checking it out. Could be a staple in Kona in the future!“

“This was the culinary highlight of our trip to the big island! Sam and Jennifer are super kind in explaining the business-all local ingredients! Premium ingredients (local chocolate, Kona hinted brownies-Mac nut base ice cream)-wowza! Serious stuff! Come support this incredible shop. Yum!“

“This was an awesome experience for a (know-it-all) home roaster from Arkansas (me). I highly recommend the roasting tour to any coffee connoisseurs. Thanks for a great experience!“

“Fantastic Acai bowls. We visited recently from the UK and as soon as we discovered them we returned every day until we left!!“

“we got the drifter large açaí bowl (32oz, $18). it was absolutely delicious with generous quantities. i really enjoyed the nice crunch of the cacao nibs and granola. i do think the açaí base was a tad bit more watery than i prefer, but overall i’m still very very satisfied.“

“Perfect spot on Ali’i drive. Went there twice in a day because it was THAT good! Day or night it’s a great spot to get a frozen drink, hangout in a comfy chair and enjoy the view. The staff is fantastic and great to talk to. Will be going back!“

“The best Pina Colada's and an awesome view! We go Everytime we make it to Kona.“

“The food is fabulous, so delish..highly recommend“

“The food is awesome the owner is friendly the view is amazing ❤️“

“Located in a non-descript spot right off the beach, this is some of the freshest and tastiest poke you’ll ever enjoy. The team is knowledgeable and their service is fast and efficient. Go early as they do run out often on busy days. Seating outside is the only option on two picnic tables and no dining indoors so be prepared to squeeze in and make new friends with other customers. A great meal and well worth the wait.“

“Food o Hawaii is by far the best delivery service. Noah is the best as well!!“

“We just enjoyed a beautiful sunset while we sipped a Maitai. Followed by a delicious Caprese appetzer and the entrees which included Egg plant parmigiana and Aloha Chicken and Build your own pasta. Our server, Emily, was very attentive and extremely professional. all in all we had an excellent experience hope you try it.“

“Absolutely BEST sushi In the world!!!! Everytime we visit Big island we come here! Its definitely worth the 2 hour wait for the sushi. The rolls are big and filling. Very well priced and very worth it. If your nearby definitely give it a try!!“

“La vue, les patisseries, et... le café !“

“Check it out! Sooo awesome!!“

“When in kona you must grab something from here. Everything is amazing and the people are awesome.“

“Love the food We are making this our favorite food spot. The BOYB was great“

“Great menu and drink selections. The atmosphere is so relaxed and the ocean is just a few feet away. Samantha and Ryan are two of the best, and the rest of the crew are fantastic as well. You can sit outside or in, or bs with the bartenders. Love this place. 10 stars“

“Temple is by far the best bar here in Kona, it has great unique cocktails. This is our go to spot for getting drinks out with friends of an evening. You can catch a great sunset & has really nice ocean views. The drink menu is expansive, always super solid, with lots of unique local inspired cocktails. The food is a little expensive, there’s better cheaper food options close by. But the drinks are really what stands out & we’ve always had great friendly service! Don’t forget to ask about getting your parking validated!“

“AMAZING food! The service was just as amazing as the food. Definitely Celiac safe and great for vegans also. They take food allergies very seriously. Our new fav restaurant in Kona and we can’t wait to go back!“

“We enjoyed a wonderful Sunday breakfast by the water listening to a musician play great island music. Our waitress, Tammy, was excellent. She was quick, knowledgeable, and the food was amazing!“

“I ate there twice in March, and twice in April, not brisk service, Hawaiian leisure!, but incredible food! The coconut shrimp, with either sauce (although I loved the sweet chili), both panko and beer battered fish and chips were delicious, and I never expected to find THE tastiest BLT sandwich I have ever eaten!“

“Great coffee and always a positive atmosphere inside the shop.“

“We were here after sunrise on Dec 26th . OUR order :
Local Hawaiian Awa
Chicken and butterfish lau lau
Sweet potato in coconut milk appetizer

Awa ( Hawaiian Cava)- was unique, it is made from the root of pepper plant . It is an acquired taste , so very glad we tried it. We drank our bowl.

CHICKEN LAU LAU- the greens , Butterfield combo was great. Kimchi being a good accompaniment. This was a good satisfying bowl of food. Comes with - purple sweet potato, greens butter fish n chicken, 2 balls of rice topped with furikake, kimchi.

Sweet potato in coconut milk- this was a disappointment. We couldn't eat it. The root veggie was bland, the coconut milk was not seasoned. I had eaten something similar to this in a luau with coconut cream and loved it. This dish here was sub par.“

“We ended up here on a Google Maps search for ravioli and the places was as promised. The kids loved it, staff were very friendly and the food was great. Huge portions so know that your sharing whatever you order. Chocolate lava cake plate got licked clean by my 9 year old.“
