Right in the heart of the city, Honolulu Coffee has landed with all the hawaiian flavors. With the famous poke bowls, the place serves also brunches, meals, desserts and a whole array of mouthwatering options.

It's on Rua dos Bragas that we find all the hawaiian flavors. With a fresh and innovative concept on the city, Maria Fernandes and Cristina Araújo never went to Hawaii, but pictures, flowers and colorful necklaces are all around the place: that's how we know we are at Honolulu Coffee Shop & Comfort Food.

In statements to NiT, Cristina Araújo tells us that her managing partner knows already the field and that the ideia of the concept went out because of a friend who talked about an empty place. "We decided to use this different concept and create a new and different environment"

The menu includes the famous poke bowls - a plate that's made with raw fish -, american cheesecake, hibiscus, used in infusions, and haupia, a traditional coconut milk-based hawaiian desert.

The costumer can also ask for a big variety of toasts with 4 different types of bread made on time - and served with avocato also - coffee, pastry, salty and sweet tapioca, oatmeal, açaí and waffles without sugar and gluten.

Lunches from Monday to Saturday, yet, are portuguese. Since feijoada à transmontana, francesinha, bacalhau à Brás and other Portuguese specialties, the menu includes the meal, drinks, desert of the day and coffee, all of this for 6€.

The space has opened on 15th of August, on number 58 of Rua dos Bragas. On working days, the dinner can only be served by take-away (07:30-19:30h), while on Saturday there's time to enjoy a typical hawaiian night until 00:00h.
