My husband and I shared:
– Turkey, Cranberry, and Cream Cheese Popover Sandwich
– Pastrami Popover Sandwich
– Ube Donut
– Lilikoi Butter Mochi
Both sandwiches were fantastic. I love popovers and it’s such a great idea to turn them into a sandwich. I think I had a slight preference for the turkey one, but you can’t go wrong with either.
The desserts were a little disappointing. The donut was dry and the butter mochi was just ok.
If you’re in Hilo, come here for lunch!

Found this gem on Google. We walked in and most of the case was empty, but the clerk offered some that were coming out within the hour. They were delicious! The purple sweet potato icing and strawberry icing yeast donuts were so fresh. We also got a Popover because you have to get a Popover when that is the name of the place! Wow!! Delicious and fresh served with some citrus butter. We also got a chocolate puff that was like a mini pain au choclat. They also had cold cans of coke which earns bonus points!!

This was our first visit and it is our favorite place in Hilo, now.
My husband ordered the Breakfast Sausage Popover and I got the Breakfast Flatbread.
We were blown away by the flavors!
I was trying to eat my flatbread before it was cool enough, but I didn’t care! It was delicious!
And my husband tore up his popover sandwich. He also asked for extra house sauce, which really made the sandwich pop!
The interior looks a little well-loved, but I took it as a sign of success through genuinely kind staff and good food.
The sign says they were established in 2019, and after enjoying their breakfast options, lattes, mango puff, and triple coffee scone, I can understand how they were able to survive covid!
The vibe was comfortable, the food was 10/10, the service was impeccable, and the pastry selection had me drooling.
Stop by Popover for a delicious meal, tasty pastries, and good coffee.

10:30am Sunday out of coffee. Limited menu and only a few items available. Shelves mostly empty too. $20 for a small Rueben that was soaking wet. I don’t understand how places get the ratings they do…

So so so delicious! Big menu, friendly helpful people, primo tea with an actual Japanese water boiler. no line somehow, when the other Cafe had a wait line to get on the list to wait for a table.

Wow! Gorgeous and delicious pastries here at Popover. I really wanted to try everything because it all looked soooooo good! My Lilikoi coconut donut was amazing and the mango puff was one of the best pastries I’ve ever had. I also had a lovely matcha latte. I really loved this place. Just be prepared to wait a little bit for drinks and sandwiches. My husband had a popover sandwich with eggs, bacon, and potatoes which was really scrumptious (the sauce on top was amazing) but we did wait about 15 minutes for it to be ready. Great place to stop for some delicious breakfast!

Fast, friendly service. Delicious pastries, get the Ube scone, it is fantastic! Caramel latte with oat milk and vanilla cappuccino were both great. The sandwiches are huge! Worth every penny!

We have been wanting to try this cute little place on Kahili and finally had the opportunity today. Super friendly counter service, a nice selection of baked goods. We ordered breakfast sandwiches and they were fantastic. Eggs and meat on one side and potatoes and peppers on the other

Popover breakfast sandwich was huge! We didn’t expect it to come with potatoes (my husband and I could have split one). The latte was very hot and tasted good (whole and oat milk are only options). I had a mini chocolate puff which was very yummy. We also had 1 s’mores donut which was good.
