Wake Up Coffee Bar

Adorable little shop! Very friendly barista/owner and you can get amazing tacos as well. Can’t beat the view of the mountains and waterfalls. Definitely stop by!!

My wife and I decided to stop here on a quiet Monday morning in the summer of 2021. I have been coming to Hanalei with my family since I was 2, now in my 20s here on my honeymoon and all I can say is…. WOW! This place is amazing, the food, coffee and service was great!

We respected the state guidelines during COVID and we took our food and ate at the pier as well. I could not recommend this place more! There are some other restaurants in Hanalei that are not as great, this one has that aloha spirit and incredible tasting food and drinks!

Also, they do take card :)

Came for breakfast with my family of 4 on a Monday. When we arrived it was very busy with a long line out the door. We waited and the line moved quickly enough. We ordered our food (quite a bit for four people) and we're given a 30 minute estimate. Food came in 15 minutes and was extremely good!! Flavor on the Fisherman's Breakfast was incredible! Would come back and eat again.

We stopped by yesterday to get coffee and the food looked so good we got a plate lunch too. No regrets! The Cold Brew Mocha and chicken lunch were both great. The items to buy in store were super cute as well.

MOST BAD REVIEWS ARE ABOUT SERVICE, NOT FOOD. BEST FOOD OF MY LIFE! I was originally deterred with the negative review, but after reading them…most of them were about the service which wasn’t nearly as bad as everyone that left a negative review said. With that being said, the food was literally some of the BEST food we have ever had..in our lives!! Amazing, no other words can express how good it was, especially the cinnamon churro French toast!

AWESOME COFFEE!!! ☕️ 😃 Such a cute shop with unique little gifts and a lovely porch to sit and sip on. Super friendly folks too! We’ll be back!

AMAZING FOOD! We visited Wake Up Delicious 4 times during our 11 night stay (mid April 2021)....the food is outstanding. It's so good we only managed to snap one picture (this trip)! The churro french toast is absolutely to die for, probably the most decadent carb overload you'll ever experience, but it's totally worth it! Fisherman's breakfast Bagel was super tasty. The Kauai garlic shrimp is always delicious and the sweet and spicy coconut shrimp is out of this world. Best mac salad on the island. We also tried the fuzzy nut cold brew and lilikoi cupcakes - both were great. We received next level customer service from the staff, but the same can't be said of the owner. On a busy morning, while waiting for our takeout order, I took a seat at a table not in use (had sealed to go containers and cups on the table), as to not take up a table for people dining in. The owner asked me to move rather abrasively, which I did, completely understanding her concerns with covid protocols. She cleared off the table, and eventually a group of 6 approached the table. With the assistance of dine-in patrons, they started pulling additional chairs that weren't in use to accommodate their party. The owner came out and said something to the effect of don't rearrange my dining room. Everyone in the dining area exchanged troubled glances. She quickly walked back her harsh statement by implying she would have done it for them had they only asked and began setting up the table. It was very uncomfortable and that's the only reason I'm not giving 5 stars.

The best breakfast / brunch in a long time! We had the somewhere over the rainbow french toast and the breakfast panini, they were both amazing! Chloe and her staff were so friendly! We will be back when in Hanalei again!

Ignore the old reviews - this is under new ownership from Trucking Delicious. And was it ever. Pumpkin French toast, scrambled egg (seriously just divine; if you know how rare that is, you know), sausage patty as big as my hand, and breakfast sandwich coined by my partner as “best breakfast sandwich ever” (and he’s probably had a thousand to compare it to). Just overheard the next table say “best breakfast place on the north shore” - I’d extend that to say in the state. This is a must, no matter where you are staying on the island.

Wake up Cafe meets Trucking Delicious! This place is so good we came 3 times during our trip. Just another reason to move here. The staff is so kind and friendly and the food is AMAZING!! Trust me and come here!
