This is such a good study space, pretty quiet, music in the back, free wifi, good amount of tables. Everyone was very friendly as well. I got the chocolate banana croissant and it was sooo good. I’m not usually a huge fan of sweets but I loved this one! Chai latte was also good!

Stumbled in this cute space for breakfast. Simple beacon egg croissant latte and orange juice delighted my taste buds. Staff is super pleasant and love the quant cozy atmosphere. Reminds me of Sausalito California waterfront shop. This is now my favorite place. Highly recommended!

When I found out they were pup friendly INSIDE!! I started coming almost daily lol. Live nearby and love the pups can come in to cool off from the sun and have a bite to eat. Their bagel sandwiches are huge, always very amenable to requests like heavy on the cream cheese, frying bacon very lightly, etc. so so nice! All of the staff are always friendly and happy and they welcome my pups :) and all the pups in our neighborhood really. They are open all day but closed on Sundays and they have a happy hour that seems very popular. All the food we have tried has been super fresh and good, from regular bagels and cream cheese to the sides of bacon or scrambled eggs for the pups, to the lunch sandwiches and side salad. All so good. Have yet to pop in for their soft serve but it’s on my list! Also love that they serve fruit infused water and it changes daily! Sometimes citrus sometimes berries, and it’s free!

Came here for lunch on a weekday. It was bustling but efficient. I got the club sandwich and I have to say, pretty damned tasty!! I love a good club sandwich. This had fresh tomatoes, fresh soft avocado, nice meats, and the bacon was perfect with just the right amount of crunch. The bagel it came on was delicious as well. It came with a tiny salad which had very fresh greens. I'd come back here in an instant! The place is kept spotless and service was friendly and professional.

Food was fresh and delicious. We had the Club w/salad, Tuna melt w/chips and the Kakaako salad w/chicken curry excellent. Plus we were able to bring our dog in.

Small place, but the food is BIG on flavor. I've eaten here 5 times and the club sandwich on the Jalapeno bagel is always my favorite! Friendly, professional staff, clean, nice atmosphere. Going to use the bathroom can be a challenge. I got a key from staff, had to leave out the back door, down a long hallway that appears to be shared with other restaurants. When I returned, the back door was locked and I had to bang on the door several times before someone let me back inside the restaurant.

First time visit Hawaii and Randomly find this Gem cute place for brunch. The location is on the way from walking beach to Pearl Harbor so you could grab a coffee and brunch if you are planning to visit Pearl from the city center. We love the food and the vibe here is really chill we ordered mocha and latte, both are nice! Bagel sandwiches are tasty too! some greens is A plus. I see the passion and loving in atmosphere here. We really enjoyed the time here! A lovely morning:) They have their own coffee brand and some local stuff, you can find them on the website and buy them. There are some street parking outside the shop although with limited spots, would be available out of peak hours.

We went here for breakfast after reading the reviews and were not disappointed! The breakfast was absolutely delicious, and the service was excellent. The prices were reasonable, and I especially loved their bagel pizza—it was so good I ended up ordering two. Their coffee was great as well, and the service was impressively fast. Highly recommend!
