17 Best Bakeries near Waialua

“I picked up a few pastries from you“

“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Discovered Mele Mele Bakery by happy accident during one of their open mic nights—and it’s been a sweet love affair ever since (pun very much intended). This place is a charming mash-up of cozy, quirky, and cool. It’s got that laid-back local vibe that makes you feel instantly at home, whether you're here for the kava, the heavenly baked goods (seriously, their pastries should be illegal), or just to soak in some tunes. They’re not a vegan bakery, but they don’t leave plant-based folks out in the cold—there’s always a small, solid selection of vegan goodies that actually taste good (you know what I mean). Bonus points: they serve locally produced honey, they’re totally dog-friendly, and you’ll likely spot a few kids dancing along to the music while their parents sip kava like it’s their new favorite ritual (because it might be). I had an unforgettable evening here recently when my son performed at their Friday open mic. Watching him play to such a warm, supportive crowd while the smell of fresh bread filled the air…well, let’s just say this place has officially baked itself into my heart. If you're looking for good vibes, better bites, and a community feel that doesn’t feel forced—Mele Mele is your spot.“

“Best banana bread ever!!!“

“Enjoyed our lunch there. Friendly service and good food! Loved the hunk of bread and cinnamon sugar! The Banana bread pudding was delish!“

“This is one of my absolute favorite places to visit! Everything is so fresh & the staff is unbelievably kind. Their croissants are to die for. 🤍 Can’t wait to visit Hawaii again. This little cafe will be a requirement when visiting. 🤙🏼“

“We ordered Micahs Special, Chicken Cutlet with Dark Gravy, & a second Mac Salad on the side. Everything was cooked & seasoned perfectly! The cutlets were crispy and tender. The Mac Salad was bomb! Micah Special had best fried noodles and crispy fries! We got baked goods to go. Very welcoming and comfortable. I loved the beautiful hydrangeas. Great customer service! Plenty of parking. We will be back to try the Shave Ice and Ice Cream. Definitely recommend and will Definitely be back!“

“Kilani Bakery is the ABSOLUTE BEST bakery in Hawaii!! Kilani Bakery has the most delicious brownies ever!! Those brownies are so incredibly delicious that they give you options to choose from! The butter rolls are phenomenal!! ANYTHING that has their incredible chocolate frosting on it is a WINNER!! Truthfully? You cannot go wrong with whatever you buy at this bakery❣️“

“I ordered Two dozen cookies K Pop Demon Hunter themed for my daughter's 5th Birthday. They look amazing and Savanna said they are sooooo good. She did it with short notice as well as these were a last minute decision. Thank you Gracie Mae's for always going above and beyond!“

“This was my second time here, and both visits have been enjoyable. They’ve got plenty of options if you're craving Vietnamese food, including some solid vegetarian choices, which is always great to see.

The food tasted good, the staff were friendly, and there wasn’t a long wait. You can dine in or grab takeout, so it’s convenient whether you’re eating there or on the go.

Overall, a nice go-to spot for a casual, satisfying meal!“

“the cookie corner in Mililani. is the best.“

“We found this spot in google maps after dropping our son off at Leilehua HS. We wanted some coffee and found this hidden gem.

Its family ran and they are so sweet! Their coffee was good. We also tried their bento box (rice, eggs, Portuguese sausage) for $5!! So cheap but it tastes like my Mom made breakfast for me.

She also gave us a bunch of pastries for free to try. Blueberry scone, guava croissant and banana bread. All super delish!

They accept military discount.

I think we found our go to spot here in Hawaii. It gives a homie vibe, reasonable price and homemade goodies. I love it!“

“We wanted to get some cupcakes for our daughter’s 5th birthday and didn’t want to get a store bought package with tons of sugary icing, we wanted to get ones with real buttercream frosting.We also didn’t want to get a super fancy cupcake flavor wise, we wanted just plain vanilla or chocolate.After sampling 5 different cupcake places (we like to have excuses to eat cupcakes), our family all liked Pua Cake Studio’s cupcakes the best. The texture, flavor, and decoration were perfect.We got 3 dozen mini chocolate and vanilla cupcakes, and one dozen mixed fruit mini cupcakes. They were a huge hit at the party and several parents were asking where we got the cupcakes from. The kids were too busy eating cupcakes to talk.We ordered them online a week in advance and went to pick it up on a Saturday. There was a small hiccup with our order but the owner quickly got us the correct order and threw in some extra cupcakes to apologize for the mixup. She was extremely helpful and nice. For me, mistakes are always possible, it’s how a business deals with a mistake that counts!I would highly recommend Pua Cake Studio! It’s a local business that is run with care and their quality is wonderful.“

“Everything we tried was delicious! We went to Oahu for a week and ate here multiple times during our stay. Croissant breakfast sandwich with any kind of meat is delicious. Spam fried rice plate is great if you're looking for a big breakfast. The pastries, cinnamon rolls and pies were fantastic! The coconut cake was my favorite though! perfect, light, fluffy cake. I don't even like coconut!“

“Went a second time here today and was not disappointed! We love Nagoya Ramen !“

“I was craving Banana Lumpia so I had my sister drive me to Golden Coin here in Wahiawa . I really like their Banana Lumpia, sweet and crunchy along with their breads. My family likes the pick your choice hot food bar with lots of different food options- fried rice, fried noodles, bbq stick etc. The Honey Dew Bubble drink is very refreshing on a hot day, especially since summer is just around the corner, perfect to cool you down. They also have a freezer so you can conveniently have something on hand to eat at home. I grabbed a bag of frozen Manapuas in the freezer for my nephew so he can just nuke it in the microwave for a quick snack after school . Employees are friendly and they make sure the hot food keeps coming out. Lots of choices and very satisfying if you’re in a rush for a quick meal. Convenient parking available on their private lot. ?“
