Such a cool place to eat! I got a spinach bagel made on gluten free bread that was a little disappointing because it wasnt super flavorful, but my husband got the pineapple pizza on gluten free crust and that was super good! I appreciate there being gluten free options! They will make the bagels or sandwiches with gluten free bread! And they play hawaiian Jesus music and they just put on such a nice atmosphere here. :) this place deserves more business!
Beautiful beach Cafe with amazing view, friendly service, and great food. Clearly labeled vegan and gluten free food. I got the vegan Moco Loco with fried rice and it was delicious. It was enough for two people. The rice was a touch undercooked. The lava flow smoothie was so good!
I just love this place! First and foremost the staff is amazing, I came here with my 9 month old and my hands were full, and I believe the employee’s name was Daryl, he went out of his way to help me. I couldn’t have been more grateful…this isn’t off that one experience, I’ve been here nearly everyday for a month. The staff here is very kind, and the atmosphere is great!
The coffee never disappoints, and being that I’m gluten free, there aren’t many options, but the ones I do have are amazing.
Highly recommend their cappuccinos, and their gluten free almond cake, and their gluten free chocolate caramel dome.
Great açai one of the best of the islands. Typical Brazilian includes milk powder and condensed milk. Reasonably priced. Fast and friendly service. Includes gluten-free granola.
I’ve had juices, smoothies, and açaí bowls here that are always on point. When I need a good, protein packed meal, the ahi sandwich on gluten free bread is does it. The bread is locally made and dressing on the side salad is house made. The staff isn’t super friendly - somewhat cliché of a yogi, college age health bar. Plus, they’re always kinda busy. I suppose when you’re this healthy and good, you can afford to be meh.
Great find during our self driving tour. Large savory and sweet crepes in regular or gluten free (buckwheat flour). Both made on the same griddle though. Enjoy if you are not super sensitive. Coffee, smoothies, and more. Order at the counter, and they bring it to you. Little place, not fancy, quick service.
This is such a wonderful soft serve/dessert shop! I love that they are completely vegan and they have such unique rotating flavors! The show stopper though, is definitely the strawberry milkshake and their hot kulolo sundae! The strawberry milkshake is made with GLUTEN FREE Malt so that means that people who are gluten and dairy intolerant can actually drink it! It tastes so delicious and wonderful in every way.
Their hot kulolo sundae is also so good. The hot kulolo mixed with the toasted macnuts make the sundae taste good regardless of the base. It's like a true taste of Hawaii in your mouth. 11/10 would recommend. Definitely a local favorite.
My only qualm is that I wish they were open later! I feel like they close just an hour too early because a lot of people aren't even done with dinner by the time they close! But I will forever be a patron to them and I try to go in as often as I can.
A Must-Try Gem: Goofy Cafe and Dine Exceeds Expectations!
My recent visit to Goofy Cafe and Dine was an absolute delight! This charming spot truly lives up to its "cute" reputation, offering a fantastic dining experience from start to finish.
The star of our meal was undoubtedly the mahi-mahi. Every member of my family ordered it, and we were all in agreement – it was absolutely delicious. The fish was perfectly cooked, and the accompanying chardonnay butter sauce was a revelation, adding a rich and flavorful touch that elevated the dish.
To quench our thirst, we opted for the fresh-squeezed raspberry lemonade, and it was just as impressive. Perfectly tart and sweet, it was a refreshing complement to our meal, and another unanimous hit with the family.
We also indulged in a couple of starters: the Kulua pork and the Hawaiian beef jerky. Both were excellent, setting the stage for the wonderful main courses.
Beyond the fantastic food, the service was truly great. Our wait staff was not only friendly and efficient but also incredibly knowledgeable, especially when it came to dietary needs. It was reassuring to have such well-informed staff who could confidently guide us on gluten-free options.
Goofy Cafe and Dine is a gem – a place where delicious food, a lovely atmosphere, and top-notch service come together to create a memorable dining experience. We can't wait to go back!
The most accommodating to gluten free I've seen in Hawaii! I really enjoyed breakfast here!! My wife and I had the Gluten free avocado toast and GF waffles and the avocado toast was the best we've ever had! Great service here too!
Fantastic service, coffee and sweets! From what I Could tell, most if not all were vegan/gluten free!The staff is extremely friendly and offered several free samples of Halva and a tea they offer. Also tried the pistachio bites, very delicious pairing with a coffee! Prices are pretty fair considering it’s Waikiki. Will return again!
Best Acai Bowl in town? That's absolutely true! As I already got my breakfast on the way but wifey wanted to try, I declined a waffle and just grabbed some iced coffee. As we got the Acai Bowl they surprised us with some waffles on the side! Wifey is gluten intolerant so I sacrificed myself for those heavenly waffles.. Go get there, guys! It's not the last time we went.
Amazing breakfast spot tucked into a small shopping plaza. Self check in at the stand outside, then they call you back when a table is free.
I had the meat scramble and breakfast potatoes, my wife (who has celiac) got the Benedict on gluten free bread. Both were absolutely amazing, and the server knew to ask whether it was a gluten allergy or preference, and even checked about potential cross contamination.
Absolutely recommend Cafe Kaila to anyone looking for fantastic food in Waikiki!
This is a happy, delicious atmosphere. The owner is skilled in her craft. The cortadito came in a little silver mug, perfect presentation. The gluten free muffin & banana bread were yummy.
Great coffee, delicious food. Plenty of options to accommodate dietary restrictions, including gluten free bread to sub for any sandwich or breakfast item.
I have allergies to gluten and dairy and called to make sure there were options. There was some uncertainty when i arrived with my friend, but thankfully they were not too busy yet and were able to take a little extra time to accommodate my allergies. I ordered a BALT sandwich with GF bread and they placed it on wax paper before pressing it on the grill. Turned out great! Also got a coffee with oatmilk.
Will be back.
This was my go to coffee/breakfast place in Oahu. The owners are always kind and represent the Aloha spirit very well. Food is quality with vegetarian & gluten free options. They have specialty coffee that if you’ve never tried before you’re in good hands here if you want to give it a shot.
Perfect açaí bowl! The Hawaiian style is a little sweeter and the Brazilian is tangy. Delicious!! Great for gluten free travelers because they serve GF cheese breads too!
Seated quickly, server Tim was efficient, helpful and personable. Food was great. I am gluten free and prefer to eat organic and the buckwheat crepe hit all the right notes in terms of quality, taste and presentation. Awesome experience. We will be back.
Food: Good portions for a good price. The menu’s 100% vegan, and all their meat substitutions are gluten free. I had the BBQ chicken platter, which was a delicious helping of ‘chicken’, salad, and Mac’nCheese. On the side, I drank a tasty pipeline paradise smoothie and some soft serve. Only distraction is the dessert was a little too sweet. Speaking of sweets, they sell daily-made cookies and doughnuts.
Service: the food came quick and they made the chicken extra spicy just for me. Since they don’t have a bathroom, I used the one at a cafe across the street.
Atmosphere: a quaint little restaurant with limited seating outside and interior perimeter. They pump Reggae over the speakers to put everyone at ease.
Saturday 10.30am was very busy but the line moved fast and we found a seat without a problem (parking needed some patience though).
Coffee was good, and THEY HAVE GLUTEN-FREE brioche made of almond flour that was DELICIOUS: flavors, texture and sweet enough but not excessive.
The place itself is beautiful and full of history, their mission is significant and the service was friendly and helpful.
Definitely will go again.
Atmosphere was decent & inviting. Service was basic with self ordering. Gluten Free French toast was burnt on the underside. Pretty much ruined the desire to go back.
Healthy menu with plenty of vegan and gluten free options, and outstandingly friendly and knowledgeable staff. The owner is Japanese and very kind. Overall great vibes!
Had the açai bowl, which has gluten free granola, and choco berry smoothie with vegan protein. Lots of cute local artisanal goods for sale inside, too.
A beautiful place to have breakfast. The problem is that the website says they offer gluten-free pancakes and once there they told me I could only have eggs and sausages.
My friends say it was good

We were in Waikīkī for a week and had breakfast here 4 times. The staff were very kind and accommodating and food was always delicious. Good gluten free options
The cutest cafe EVER. The earl gray scone was so amazing I didn't want yo share and we ended up another one. The chocolate chip cookie was ALSO amazing. The acai bowl was also very good and fresh. The granola is made in house and gluten free! No nuts either. The coffee was also amazing, got the honey cinnamon latte and it was delicious. Not too sweet. Totally coming back for more. The best discovery we had staying in O'ahu!
Gluten free avocado toast in Waikiki - what’s not to love there? Food was excellent and very beautifully presented. Staff seemed overwhelmed and tense - a couple of extra workers trickled in later but it still took almost 30 minutes for them to produce two orders of avocado toast. It was worth the wait but they need to work on their flow!
