Stopped in for a cup of coffee and ended up ordering the spam musubi. They were so good!! We had other plans for lunch, but after seeing some of the food coming out of the kitchen we will definitely be going back to have some lunch or pancakes! S Service was good and prices were reasonable. They do have a small parking lot in front, but you can also walk easily from the Hofu Tenmangu Shrine.

This little Hawaiian cafe has some really good pancakes my kids where talking about the next morning after we ate there. The restaurant has plenty of indoor and out door seating. Bring koi food after there is a koi pond right out side. The service was top notch and I would recommend this as your lunch stop in Hofu. Just a short walk to the shrine from here.

I just moved to Hofu and was pleasantly surprised about this cafe. The staff were very kind and courteous towards me from the beginning. It was raining when I walked here so it was a quiet late morning. The staff kindly recommended the macadamia nut pancake and I ordered the double. I also ordered a hot decaf coffee. It cost about 1700 yen which is mid range and not too bad every once in a while as a treat. Anyways the coffee was excellent and had a wonderful aroma. I like to drink my coffee black but this time I added some sugar and milk. It was excellent . The double pancake had a delicious sauce and had a wonderful taste to it. I was very full after eating it and recommend the single pancake unless you are quite hungry. All in all the staff smiled a lot and were very kind. I hope others will come here too, because the staff were so kind and warm and the Hawaiian feeling was very nice.

たまに伺うお店です!お昼の休憩中にランチができるお店は大体14時までが多いのですが、こちらは14時以降でも伺えますので慌てなくていいです。 私はガーリックシュリンプが大好きなので、リックシュリンプセットにしました。パンケーキなどもすごく美味しくて、ハワイにいるような感覚になります。ぜひ皆さんいかれてみてください。

Cozy and at home feeling;albeit a home decorated with some Hawa'iian kitsch. Reasonable prices for decent pancakes, waffles, coffee, and acai bowls. Current season limited pancake was the Tiramisu pancake with marscapone cream.
