CAFE MOREY’S
Breakfast in Honolulu: Great Food, Beautiful Mountain Views
Stepping into Cafe Morey's, you immediately know you're in a special spot. The relaxed ambiance and cheerfully painted interior of this locally beloved restaurant are utterly disarming, with open windows providing a peaceful, breezy setting for a delicious meal.
This hotspot offers dine-in and takeout from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. daily, making it a versatile choice for breakfast or lunch.
Now, let's talk about the true stars: the dishes that emerge from Cafe Morey's kitchen. From traditional to contemporary, the food is made with love and aloha.
The star of the menu is their kimchi fried rice. Every mouthful is a gastronomic symphony of flavors: salty, spicy, tangy. It's comfort food in the way only Hawaii knows, fusing the best of many cultures into one harmonious, unforgettable plate.
And for garlic lovers, Morey's has an option beyond your dreams. The famous anchovy garlic butter fries are a specialty that defies all expectations. For those not typically fans of anchovy, I urge you not to be deterred. The crispy, golden fries are an addicting salty delight. The umami of the anchovies, the bold kick of garlic, and the creamy, indulgent blanket of butter are irresistible. Each golden, crispy fry is a testament to the magic that happens when simplicity meets audacity.
But for those who prefer to stick with the classics, you can't go wrong with Cafe Morey’s delightful pancakes and French toast.
In a city of plenty, Cafe Morey's stands out among the tourist traps that overcharge for a simple, restorative meal. It's not about haute cuisine or extravagant presentation. Instead, it's about great food, made with love and served in an environment that feels like a slice of real Hawaii, beyond the glitz of Waikiki.
