Liliha Bakery

About
Best for anyone craving exceptional, made-from-scratch Polynesian and breakfast fare in a no-frills setting. Liliha Bakery has been a Honolulu mainstay since 1950, with bakers using time-honored methods and everything made from scratch. The cafe serves a full breakfast and lunch menu alongside the bakery items, but it's the pancakes that steal the show: a local friend called them the best in the world, and you'll likely agree. There are only about a dozen seats, so expect a wait during peak times. Come early or on a weekday to snag a spot without the crowd.
The bakery also offers pastries and pies to-go, making it a great stop for a quick bite or dessert. It's located near Aipaako St in Honolulu, easy to reach from Waikiki. If you're exploring the area, you can walk to Rainbow Drive-In for another local favorite.

“Best pancakes you will ever have”
A friend from the islands claimed this bakery serves the best pancakes anywhere, and I was skeptical until I tried them. They were absolutely right. The pancakes were so good I thought about them every morning for the rest of our trip. The seating is very limited, only about a dozen spots, so expect a wait during busy hours. But the pancakes make it completely worthwhile.
