Cute little cafe with good food. Old school and easy going vibes. Food was very good, the breakfast burrito (add sausage) and French toast were amazing. Our friend ordered the breakfast sandwich and was a little disappointed though, it looked kind of mediocre. Busy on a Saturday morning, but didn’t have to wait too long.

Came here after snorkeling with sharks on the north coast. The locals on the boat recommended it, and I’m really happy they did. My steak was incredible and everyone was so friendly.

Delicious food, and great coffee! There’s outdoor seating, which I didn’t realize when I went here and when I was leaving I saw it, but the inside has a nice islander diner old fashioned vibe which was quite nice also.

Great place to grab some Hawaiian breakfast – eggs with spam, banana pancakes Portuguese sausage and waffles. I had an omelette with bacon, cheese and asparagus. The French toast was a little tough on the crust. The food was delicious. The service was friendly.
No team bathroom – a porta potty.

We are a group of 6 ppl, we came here during the week for breakfast around 10am. You order at the counter then they give you a number to place on your table that you choose to sit at. We were served our food within 20 mins of ordering. Food tasted average. Customer service was very nice. Atmosphere was nice, bathroom is a port a john that is outside. Small parking lot in the back, we had to park down the street.

I wanted to share my recent experience at Cafe Haleiwa, a charming local café with a genuine Surfside Hawaiian ambiance. This spot is perfect for those looking to immerse themselves in the local culture. At Cafe Haleiwa, you place your order at the counter and then take a seat to be served. It’s worth noting that if you’re in a hurry, this might not be the best choice, but the leisurely pace adds to its authentic charm.
For breakfast, I opted for the country breakfast with French toast. It was a delightful choice! The French toast came sprinkled with sugar, and I decided to add some bananas on top – they were absolutely fantastic. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and the eggs were flavorful and cooked to perfection. Overall, it was a great experience that truly captured the essence of the local vibe.
My wife chose the huevos rancheros, and of course, I had to give them a try. They were delicious and had an authentic Mexican taste, albeit with a unique twist that made them stand out.
If you’re ever in the area, I highly recommend stopping by Cafe Haleiwa for a taste of the local flavor and a relaxing breakfast experience. If you’re in a rush, this might not be the place for you. It is a truly laid-back traditional North Shore Hawaiian experience

Always one of our stops up to North shore
Food is delicious, prices are very reasonable, especially considering it’s North shore.
This time went with a local Portuguese omelette and the breakfast in a barrel.
Service is always kinda slow, but they make everything fresh so it’s really not bad considering.

Café Haleiwa is a casual spot in Haleiwa on Oahu’s North Shore, known for its breakfast and brunch with local flavors. We visited for lunch after golf and it was very busy. We tried the Loco Moco, which was excellent, and their bottled fresh juice, which was good. The Lion coffee wasn’t as strong as I would have liked, but it was decent. However, the porta-potty was in terrible condition—smelly and dirty, so we ended up going to Starbucks to use the restroom.

The whole time I’ve been here in Oahu I’ve been mostly unimpressed with the food. I wouldn’t even say this cafe is truly impressive, but I would throw my life on the line to say it’s solid as hell. Everything on this island is tourist thirsty in my experience so far, and that’s probably because so many people are vying for the same attention and profit tourism brings. You can’t really blame em, but that’s a whole nother story. But not this place. It felt like a regular cafe/diner situation. The girl working the register had sweetheart pouring off of her, which was also nice. It felt genuine. Im tempted to say the food was terrible just to keep other folks from ruining it for me next time I want to swing by, but that would be a sacrilege to this fine establishment. The food was good. The price was good. The staff were good. If you want to complain about the parking then stay home. It sucks everywhere here so get used to it. Me and my wife got the spam and eggs local. It was good.
