Cinnamons was a typical thirty minute wait so as we walked back to the car we saw this place next to Black Cat. Such a great find! Really healthy food. Cool vibe and great employees. We will definitely be back .

This place has great food and the best lattes weve had in Hawaii. Their bowls are filling and delicious. The pork belly tastes like it was prepped in an amazing marinade. The chorizo was great. And the waffles, though small, are dense and quite filling! Great food options for people of all ages 😁

As an Aussie traveling in Hawaii its always a challenge to find a good coffee. We found egghead and the coffee is incredible! On top of that the food is just delicious.

This place was awesome. A bit hidden but not super crowded. Had great breakfast bowls and waffles. Excellent lattes too.

If you see that Cinnamon’s nearby has dine-in and you feel tempted to go there instead, don’t do it. 2 different leagues. πŸ˜‰

I think this is my favorite coffee so far that I’ve tried on the island. They didn’t have cortados on the menu but the barista was familiar and made one for me πŸ˜‡The beeping of the pagers is a little irritating but it makes for an efficient delivery method and I was able to tune it outβ€” a little too successfully, as my pager was beeping in my pocket without me noticing... luckily the barista brought out my food which was extra nice! I love the vibe in here as well.The food is fresh and delicious.

My girlfriend and I went to Egghead Cafe and got the Lilikoi B.C.T.E. and it was some of the best food we had in a long time. She said that their sandwich was the single best sandwich she had ever eaten in her child and adult life. A sure stop for anyone wanting fantastic food!

We were looking for a good coffee shop in Kailua before we headed out for the day - egghead did not disappoint! The food was good, the banana Moffle was sweet and the banana were caramelized and delicious. My husband got the piggy bowl and said it was amazing - that he could taste each ingredient in the bowl and enjoyed how well they went together.OH! The staff was so sweet and welcoming. They provided great recommendations and were very accommodating.Start your day the right way with Egghead.

Best breakfast Ive had in Oahu. Took a drive to get here from where Im staying but well worth it. Nice sized menu for the business size. Lots of different coffee options and unique food.We got the pork belly bowl, banana moffle, and a eggy-brekky (eggs and meat with sides). All of the food was amazing and the sea salt blended coffees were delicious. This is my number 1 breakfast spot on the island.

Stumbled into egghead because our go-to place was closed for the week . Gotta say we were pleasantly surprised! Food was good coffee was great, air-conditioning was cool and service was perfect. I think We must’ve passed by it 20 times and didn’t really notice the nondescript entrance. Once you get inside it really opens up into a cool little space. Thanks staff, We’ll be back.

It isnt the same as their first location... They still have a good selection of menu items, but a lot of our favourites are not available. On the flip side, their menu items are still delicious and satisfying. The staff still remembers us and is friendly, despite our very low patronage. Parking can be hard to obtain as the car park is shared with other stores/restaurants. Oh, and they are pet-friendly.

Despite the name, there are plenty of non-egg options here for the egg-intolerant (like me). I stopped by here with my friend and the food was delicious, definitely try out the β€œmoffle,” which is their mochi dough waffle. The coffee and food are good, even if the food portions a bit small. Service was great and fast!

Some of the best food I’ve had on the island! The smoked salmon sandwich (don’t forget to add the bacon) was out of this world, the latte is perfect and the Moffle(mochi waffle) is something I’ll be bringing all visitors to try. I’d add a picture but I was FAR too busy devouring it all.

Been coming to this location since it opened and been a fan since day one. Best Vietnamese coffee on the island. Incredible iced mochas amongst other great drinks. If youre hungry I recommend the prosciutto caprese sandwich or the banana mochi waffle. Its a great place to meet up with friends for some good coffee and food!!

This was the best breakfast we’ve had all vacation. The food is fresh, tasty and healthy. The β€œmoffle” was exceptional. (1/2 waffle 1/2 Mochi) They were able to make it gluten free for my gluten sensitive husband. His breakfast bowl was also gluten free so he was one happy guy. My cup of coffee was delicious and strong. The staff were also very friendly and warm. If you’re in Kailua make sure you stop by !!!

WARNING: $10 minimum for credit card use with no obvious signage. Cant comment on the latte. After standing in line for a non-insignificant amount of time could not order because my order was under $10. I get it, but the joint does not look like the kind of place that is cash only.

Best coffee in town. I lived in Rome, Italy, and this is the closest I had to a real machiatto I’ve had in the US. I love that I don’t have to explain it, unlike starbucks were I usually end up with some form of capuccino.Oh, and the food is excellent. I particularly enjoy their take on the BLT. Great service as well.I’m a regular.

Little pricey for what it is, but I made a bunch of sides into a meal which is probably why. Not bad but not great. Its a good place if you are looking for an alternative to the legacy Kailua breakfast spots...

Review β„–74

Food was excellent! Wife got a chai tea latte, I got double ristretto shots, and we both got the chicken pesto sandwiches. Everything was excellent. The salads with the sandwiches were very fresh and the dressing was light and lemony. Sandwiches had good amounts of chicken and very flavorful toppings (especially the walnut basil pesto!). Our only dislike was the interior was a little too cold and industrial feeling, but thats just our preference so we sat outside to eat. Would definitely visit again.

Reasonable food, below average coffee. We had a cappuccino, tea, and a quinoa salad. The coffee was very milky and not particularly good. Salad didn’t impress either, being very bland even for a quinoa salad.

Great cafe, unique menus like the mochi waffles and their mochi sandwiches made the food great. Coffee was top notch as well. There may be little reviews, but IMO, it is better than the Cinnamons nextdoor.
