Cute little bagel spot with outdoor seating! It's located in front of grace n growlers in Kailua. The bagels / menu change daily, so be sure to scan the QR code to see what's being offered daily! Today I got the beet and goat cheese on an everything bagel. Loved the balance of flavors, especially with the balsamic vinegar and salt drizzled on top. I'd personally like a bit more goat cheese schmeared on top but that's just me. Service here is super friendly and quick. I originally came in with the plan of just getting a coffee but decided to share a bagel with my friend. I love this area and the outdoor seating makes it such a nice vibe to sit, chill, eat, and people watch. I brought my dog with me too, and he had so much fun! They also had a smoked ahi bagel on the menu, hope I can try that one out next time I come by!

Saw a tiktok about this place and figured I would give it a try. I love bagels and these were literally so good!! I'm usually not a seeded bagel person so I was a little nervous but these were amazing. Cute patio seating outside and good service! While we were waiting for our bagels to come we grabbed a drink at the cute little coffee stand outside too.

Loved it! My bagel was delicious! And it was a REAL bagel! The owner is a hard working, bagel loving man! I'll be back!!!!

The service is prompt and the bagels are delicious! I do wish there was an option to build your own bagel sandwich! - would be a game changer.

Yummy bagels! I liked the smoked ahi bagel and I also had the everything bagel with lemon and dill cream cheese. Great snack! The people who work there are also super nice. Wish they were open more days of the week! I will be back for more bagels :)

Why is it so hard to find a bagel shop in Hawaii? Happily tried the eggel yesterday and was pleasantly happy with my choice. I do like that they add the bacon/ cheese in the egg (prevents everything from falling out when you bite into it) and the everything bagel was good. Only complaint is the size the bagel, thought it was a little small in my opinion but the flavors were all good.

Great service! Great food! A little weird but I asked for cream and sugar with my coffee and they brought out oat milk? But that's fine I guess + the coffee was really good. Really enjoyed the food!!
Stoked to explore Kailua Town and experience Empty Elle Bagels. This place has everything from sweet to savoury and everything in between. The flavours offered are both original and staples for either a light snack to a hearty meal. Excited to come back to this place again :)

This place is so cute! There is outdoor seating so we were able to bring our dog with us, and there is a little coffee place out front as well where I was able to get a matcha latte while waiting for the bagels. There are QR menus on the tables because the menu changes daily, and then a server comes to take your order. Our server was super fast and friendly. I ordered the "strami" and my husband ordered the "eggel"- both were delicious! This was our first time having Montreal style bagels, and we both agreed that outside of New York, this was the best bagel place we've been to. We will definitely be back!

Amazing food, quality service! I advise going early cause they sell out of bagels real fast! 100% worth visiting if you're on O'ahu!!! Even if it is a detour it is a must go if you love bagels!
