Indie Superette: Farm to table, simply prepared. My definitive winner in the fresh poke category, Ono Seafood offers a simple menu of raw, dressed ahi or salmon over warm rice with a few key toppings. Click here for easy healthy meals to make at home! Instead, you’ll often find the best options inside one of Hawaii’s many healthy grocery store chains, like Down to Earth, Whole Foods, or Foodland.
I was a bit surprised and disappointed to learn that Hawaii lacks any equivalent to the mainland’s Sweetgreens or MIXT salad shops. Since we moved here during the work-remote period of the pandemic, finding quick and healthy lunch options was an imperative task. Go as early as you can, or call in an order for pick up at the Kapiolani location and eat at the beach! Ask about their syrup of the day.
You’ll pay for this by waiting in line for up to an hour. Original Pancake House: Ok, it’s not healthy in the slightest, but they seriously make the best pancakes I’ve ever had time and time again. They make an incredible homemade pesto that they put on top of eggs and prosciutto, alongside a housemade butter muffin.Ĭafe Morey’s: Located in the Diamond Head area, this bright and airy cafe is perfect for a casual brunch with a friend or group.
All items are organic, hand-selected, prepared, and served by the two men who run the place, giving it both a communal and farm-to-table feel. Raintree Cafe & Bakery: This cafe is owned by a sweet man from San Francisco’s North Beach neighborhood and his partner, and I think they run the whole show themselves. It makes perfect sense, given the uber-cute Aussie aesthetic and avocado toast perfection. I’ve never seen trendier people in all of Hawaii than those hanging around this little outdoor cafe in the trendy SALT at Kaka’ako shopping center. Their apple gateau and herb omelette are simple and divine.Īrvo: Arvo is good for equal parts nourishment and people watching. The last one is not healthy, but it is casual, inexpensive, and fire as hell, and we should all be ok with that.įarmhouse Cafe: Located on a quiet street in the Ala Moana neighborhood of Honolulu, this unassuming cafe is home to some of the best, simple French food I have found on the island. The first four are relatively healthy, casual, and inexpensive. The few places we’ve tried and really liked are below. There are also some nice outdoor tables, as well.Ĭoffee Talk Art Cafe: Another super eclectic interior, this cafe is located in the hip Kaimuki area and a popular weekend destination.Īdmittedly, we didn’t eat a lot of breakfast out of the house, so this is going to be a fairly light list. It’s a massive, airy space that houses many tables alongside an educational experience about where their coffee comes from and how it’s roasted to perfection. Honolulu Coffee Experience: HNL Coffee is all over the island, but the can’t-miss location is off of Kapiolani. We live closest to the Ala Moana location, located on the 3rd floor of the mall, but the outdoor seating area in the Hawaii Kai location is my favorite by far. The aesthetic is funky and eclectic, the coffee cups are big and have some nice heft to them. Island Brew Coffeehouse: There are two locations on Oahu, both of which are awesome. But the coffee is hot and the vibe is right. We usually only get coffee at these places, so I don’t necessarily endorse the food. One of Tyler’s favorite weekend activities is packing up our backpacks with books and laptops to camp out at a coffee shop.
