Herbert is the name we gave to the lizard . Heâs a cute little dude who will gladly help you finish up your sweet jam. This is a gorgeous place to grab a coffee and some breakfast. Get there early for a good seat. Decent veggie options. Friendly staff. Service is super fast. My only tip: cut back on the cooking oil. Worth a visit..... if just to say hi to Herbert. Seeing Herbert may reminds you that all living beings have a soul... maybe skip the bacon next time

This small establishment offers a cozy, relaxed vibe. 4 of us, ourselves and our 2 teenage grandsons visited for a late lunch. There is a pool table available which kept the boys occupied while we waited for our food. And when it did, we were all happy! Not only was it visually attractive but also delicious. Everything from the taco plate to the wraps and paninis was a hit. We wanted to return once more but found that the restaurant is closed on Mondays, the only day we could have gone.

Hey my name is Robin. You can call me Big Rob. Big Rob's is a family owned and operated business bringing home style ono grinds to the South West Big Island! As the sole owner, I have been baking for over 30 years and I take pride and joy in my products.

It ain't pretty or centrally located, but Big Rob's restaurant is worth checking out, not only for the experience of meeting Rob but also because the food is great! As others have mentioned, Rob does pretty much everything himself. We thought he was all disorganized as far as ordering but suddenly Rob had lunch for 4 of us whipped up! We ordered everything from French toast to a fish sandwich and he mastered all of it.We wanted to return on our last day on the island but it was a Monday, and Rob's was closed! The man needs a day off. He expends a lot of energy. You gotta go!

After eating gelato from down the road we really needed a coffee. We saw the sign and turned into the strip mall. What a pleasant surprise meeting Hoku and Jordan the owners of Da Kine Coffee. They brewed us excellent coffee, served home baked banana bread and entertained us with stories about their journey in life and life on the Big Island. What a welcome interlude for our day. I am really glad we stopped. Please visit their shop and support these young entrepreneurs. A business like theirs deserves to flourish and survive.
5. Menehune Coffee

After hiking 4 miles around the Puâuhonua O Honamanau National Historic Park, we wanted lunch nearby. The super-nice lady at the park gift shop suggested this cafe, just up Hwy. 11. Just pull off the road into one of the parking spots. There are about 8 tables, including a couple near the windows and screen door where you get a lovely fresh breeze. Table service or food to go, plus a bakery counter. Also a pool table! Whatever you order for lunch, be sure to get the Citrus Slaw (shredded red cabbage with a special Hawaiian citrus dressing) and the Sweet Purple Potato Salad. You can purchase bags of 100% Kona Coffee from their affiliated coffee farm just up the road. This cafe was just what we needed to relax and recharge before more touring!
