27 Best Breakfast Restaurants in Honolulu

“We RAN to Waffle and Berry after the zoo. We showed up 15 minutes before closed and they were quick to calm us. As long as we ordered by 2 minutes before close, we would be served. And then they showed up with a snack plate for our toddler. He absolutely loved it!! We absolutely loved our dessert. Crispy, warm waffle. Sweet ice cream and berries. Unbelievably welcoming environment.“

“Don’t let the exterior fool you, this is no greasy spoon. We had a MARVELOUS breakfast here. All of the food was beyond compare, budget-friendly priced, and the staff is exceptional. Highly recommended. We will be back whenever we are in Honolulu.“

“We LOVEEEEE Egghead Cafe!!! Every time we come in they are so friendly, welcoming of my little ones, and quick! I've never had anything bad. Their coffee is delicious, my favorite is Tiramisu Latte! Definitely visit, it will be worth it!“

“Cute place! The packages were really fluffy and delicious, it’s just two guys, but it’s amazing how quick they work. We came and there was already a line! Forgot to take the picture with how hungry I was but will definitely come again in the future!“

“We had such an amazing breakfast at Aiwi Waffles on our very first day in Hawaii, and it could not have been a better start to our trip.
We ordered the berry medley mochi waffles with cream cheese and added bananas, and it was absolutely incredible. This place makes everything gluten free, whether you want sweet or savory waffles or even just a simple butter waffle, they can do it all. My husband is gluten free, but I am not, and I can honestly say this was the best waffle I have ever had. It was even better than any regular waffle I have tried before. You can really feel that they put their heart and soul into every dish.
The atmosphere was so warm and welcoming. Our waitress was genuinely kind, took the time to talk with us, and even recommended places to visit during our stay. That personal touch made the experience even more special.
The prices are very reasonable, and the whole place feels friendly and inviting. We absolutely loved it and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend to anyone in Honolulu, gluten free or not“

“Food was fresh and delicious. The produce they used was amazing quality. They have a lot of good options to choose from and the ordering process was quick and easy. My toddler who is in a picky eating phase loved their scrambled eggs and croffles. They also have the best matcha latte I've ever had, I believe they use a pandan syrup they make in house. Would definitely recommend to anyone and will be returning.“

“Awesome food and wonderful people“

“Absolutely delicious, best breakfast wrap I’ve ever had!“

“Huge fan of Le Crepe Cafe and couldn't wait to eat here when we got to the island! I used to come here with my sister when she lived in Manoa, and the cafe was in a food truck in the Safeway parking lot. I was so happy to see they've found longterm success and are now in a storefront. Excellent savory and sweet crepes, and the coffee was on point. Very friendly girls working too. Can't wait to come back again next time!“

“Stopped her after baptism this morning for a late breakfast. I ordered the strawberry French toast not knowing what I was getting myself into.. omg that portion size. It was very good the only problem was I couldn’t finish it. I was too full…“

“everything was delicious and very friendly staff!“

“Though I think I've only ever ordered the veggie omelet with cheese, it is my favorite omelet. Perfect size and great veggie selection (who knew cabbage would be so good in an omelet?!)
The hashbrowns are perfectly crispy. Be sure to get the biscuit!
My friends have enjoyed the other menu items they've ordered.
While I usually dine in this time I did takeout and everything was just as good as if I had eaten there. (Granted, I did eat it in my car right away.)
FYI they're now closed for repairs, I think till Jan 7.“

“The service and the food was excellent. we loved the outdoor seating. we will definitely be back before we leave the island. I highly recommend it. We had the breakfast and my wife was already talking about going back for dinner“

“The pink pancakes at the Pink Palace of the Pacific, what more could you ask for on the world’s most famous beach?

This was an absolute delightful breakfast. We saved it for our last morning in Waikiki and looked forward to it all week. After an early morning surf, we hit the restaurant and enjoyed three orders of the Pink Pancakes. They were garnished so beautifully and had all these fancy little touches.

Take a little bit of the magic home with Pink Pancake Mix from the Royal Hawaiian Bakery further inside the hotel.“

“Food was great, staff was kind and fast, and the best part was there wasn’t a crazy wait (like at some of the other places nearby). Can definitely recommend the vegetarian omelette, and they also accommodated our party by making vegetarian fried rice for us. Also we loved the banana pancakes!“

“Breakfast Buffet located at the Hale Koa Hotel. Affordable, for military and retired guests and hotel guests, less than $30 with ocean views and your common breakfast buffet. We came at the perfect time on a Friday morning before 8am and before the rush arrived. We got a nice outdoor table with the views of the ocean and outside, there are nets so birds can get in. You can order drinks and smoothies for a charge. There is an omelette station and I think you can request special plates, but overall it’s a traditional continental breakfast buffet with salmon eggs benedict, French toast, and some Hawaiian dishes too. Located at the Kalia side of the towers on the side where check in is. The parking garage is across the street from the hotel. You can also charge to your room or pay there, I think my parents got a senior citizen discount. Convenient if you’re staying at this hotel.“

“Wonderful experience! From the friendly staff to the great tasting food I highly recommend this place!! Must try the jalapeño & bacon fried rice and all pancakes. (Had seconds of it) Olani St location.“

“This place has THE BEST honey toasts. Great customer service and there are also super cute decorations! I came here with my friend and we ordered the honey toast, Vanilla ice cream dream toast with chocolate sauce, Oreo cookie, pocky sticks and sprinkle sugar powder with raspberry. They also have varieties of tea you can choose from. Everything is so refreshing here. You won’t want to miss out on these treats, the next time you’re here!“

“The place to go for roast pork for me mini roast pork hold da rice all Mac“

“Personnel très gentil et serviable. Les plats proposés sont très bons et copieux. Aussi bien les petits déjeuner que les repas.“

“hot fresh tasty food fast!“

“In short words ill say the waitress was nice and the atmospehere was calm. The food wasn’t expected for the price but it was still the delicious. To summarize it’s calm, close to the ala moana hotel, nice but kinda pricey if you’re just there to eat a small meal rather then how much you should at a buffet. I went with my mom and together it costed 51$ (2 people) I would recommend this restraunt but only if you’re there to eat more then 1 or 2 plates of food“

“Excellent food and service provided by our server Ruel C. Delicious coffee one of few places where I can drink it black. I will definitely be back. Please keep up the good work and service. God Bless.“

“Breakfast was so delicious that I went back the next day! Service was top notch!“

“Excellent! Our food came quickly, even on Valentine's Day. When you walk in, you're greeted and welcomed, which is rare these days. We had a reservation, but didn't ask for it, or immediately stop us, and instead simply asked us where we'd like to sit. They disclosed the added service charge BEFORE taking our order. All good things that more restaurants, fancy or otherwise, should do. Mahalo for a great breakfast :)“

“First time at IHOP Hawaii and had a fantastic experience. Our server Kapeka was helpful and professional. Would come back again and highly recommend to anyone visiting Waikiki. Thanks!“
