Quality local coffee spot inside the hotel/mall. Friendly staff! Give it a try over Starbucks or other big chains.
Maleko’s also offers Pizza after 3.30pm. I was walking by and I heard they had good pizza. I stopped and talked to JB. He makes a great pizza!
Love this place! The staff are so friendly and dedicated. The coffee is great and the pastries are top notch. Really enjoyed stopping in each morning on our vacation. Hope to return very soon. I especially loved the malasdas- yum!
I’ve been to quite a few coffee shops in the area and this is my favorite! Definitely recommend
Great pastries, coffee, and service! Glad we made the stop 😊 🍩
The malasadas are just straight up yum. Had both the coconut filling one and the custard and it was delicious.
Don't go if you want to get an espresso drink, cappuccino taste like hot milk
Very helpful staff . Great baked goods .
The food isn't bad but the guy is racist so I definitely would not recommend, especially if you have an accent. I find amusing how people that don't event speak their own language well feel comfortable commenting on other people's abilities. Tourists: Get your food somewhere else!
The only reason why I'm giving two starts is because the first time I went there, a very lovely woman helped me with my order. Today, a very rude man got my order, and when I asked what was in a sandwich, he not only didn't answer my question but also asked where my accent was from. After I said that I'm originally from Brazil, he said a word in Spanish (we were talking in English the whole time). I told him that I don't speak Spanish (in Brazil we speak Portuguese) and he said "but aren't you all the same"? - which was a very racist and ignorant comment to make. After I repeated that I didn't speak Spanish and that he could speak English with me, he said that he could not help me and left me without explaining what was on the sandwich. I was originally planning on going there everyday while in Honolulu, but today was definitely my last day.
Updating my review due to response from the owner. Looks like the masaladas are actually fully vegan! Wish there was better marking, but it’s super cool that this local cafe has vegan masaladas (aside from the custard one). Really difficult to find vegan malasadas, so highly recommend you get one here. The guava one was a delight. Thank you to the owner for responding and making these!
Mocha was meh, cold brew coffee was warm with a few ice cubes, and the breakfast sandwiches had the THINNEST layers of egg and meat. It was mostly velveeta-type cheese in a bland bun. Flies everywhere, nowhere to stand before or after ordering, no chairs or tables anywhere nearby... honestly have no idea why they have good reviews. We went to several other coffee shops in the area on other days and had FAR better coffee and breakfast. The staff was friendly at least?
Pastries were ok. Close to me, but not as good as Pastries at Kona bakery.
Brown sugar boba was way too sweet and I had to discard it not being able to drink it. My husband got a cappuccino and had to keep adding extra shots of espresso because it started off as just milk.
Delicious pastries and coffee! We ate here every morning while staying in the adjoining hotel.
Very good coffee and treats. Friendly staff.
The coffee and pastries are awesome and the service is the best!!!
Great place to grab a coffee and a pastry. Must stop when in Honolulu. Have taken two separate week long trips there and go almost everyday its so delicious.
We had a delicious breakfast every morning at this place! The croissant was the best I have ever had!!! Coupled with friendly customer service, this place is to go for breakfast! Highly recommend!
Best pizza in town, prepared very fast, for an amazing price and the guy who's preparing pizza is very friendly. We tried Supreme pizza and it's so tasteful!
