Top Breakfasts on Kauai’s North Shore

The jetlag is still in affect, your up early listing to the roosters crow. You’ve taken a walkalong the coast line, but now your getting ready to grab some breakfast. We’re here to help narrow down the top options.

We’re focusing primarily on the North Shore for this since you mostly like aren’t driving to the South Shore for Breakfast.

Best All Around Breakfast

Hanalei Bread Company

Travel Time: 12min

Hours: 7am-12:30pm Daily

Price: $10-$20/person

Locally owned and operated. Hanalei Bread Company is an organic bakery and coffee house. Whether your in the mood for an Acai Bowl, an amazing breakfast sandwich, or the delicious Peanut Butter toast, this is one of our favorite spots to start the day.

Best Coffee and Food on the Go

Wishing Well Coffee & Tee

Travel Time: 10min

Hours: 6:30am-5pm Daily

Price: $10-$20/person

Ironically chosen for our quick option, the Wishing Well Coffee is part of a larger company under the name “Slow Yourself Down”. Your coffee comes in a free mason jar which you can take home, and there is plenty of outdoor seating to take a minute to enjoy your coffee and meal. We highly recommend the Acai bowls here to start your day out right.

Best Breakfast to Plan Your Morning Around

1 Hotel Hanalei Bay

Travel Time: 10min

Breakfast Hours: 7am-11am Daily

Price: $30-$80/person

Parking: Free Valet

The views of Hanalei Bay, and the beauty of the 1 Hotel are enough to put their restaurant on this list. However, the real star of the show, and the reason we carve out a day to have breakfast here each trip is the all you can eat breakfast buffet. Now granted, you can order alot of amazing options off their breakfast menu, but why limit yourself to one choice when a seemingly endless supply of pastries, fruit, omelets, bacon, pancakes, and waffles are at your fingertips. Not to mention the many refills of fresh squeezed POG your going to want to enjoy. Add it all up, and despite the price tag we highly recommend taking a bit more time and enjoying a morning at the 1 Hotel.
