Surfer’s Bakery - Fort Shafter

Located in Ala Moana mall, it's a cute cafe. Not too crowded inside, with a decent amount of seating! There were lots of bakery items available but we weren't hungry so we opted for drinks instead. I'm not sure if we were able to adjust the sweetness or not, but if we could, we'd definitely ask for less sweetness. Both drinks were extremely sweet--to the point where we couldn't even finish one. The green tea tasted like straight up syrup with a hint of tea. While the lemonade was oddly really sour and really sweet at the same time? Service was really nice and it was spacious enough to just sit and chat, we might visit again to give the bakery items a try, but most likely won't be getting those drinks again.

Great food, friendly staff and clean interior. The pastries and selection of bread, pastries and one of a kind baked creations were tasty.

Not sure if she was the owner or manager, but the pretty korean lady working was so so nice! wanted to order a custard latte but it was out of stock, so she gave me a free custard bun ?. got the korean latte instead and it was good , smooth and sweet. was also watching her interact w/the workers there and they all seem so happy and close . such a cute bakery and would come again just for the service alone :

Whenever I feel like treating myself, I come here for one thing specifically: the latte!Layered with real strawberry pieces and a sweet, milky matcha drink, it 's definitely more of a dessert drink that I only indulge in once a month or so ~As for their baked goods, I tend to gravitate towards their savory items. While they are a little bit more expensive than comparable Asian bakeries, I find that the sizes here are much more filling! The ham or sausage croissants are my go-tos. However, of their sweet items, the croffles are my top picks.One less star only because all the drinks I 've had are fairly ice-heavy, and I do feel like some of their food items lack that freshly baked taste to them. But otherwise, I still will return for their unique beverage and baked goods options!

This place is truly fantastic! I make it a point to stop by while taking a leisurely stroll with my dog. The bread is consistently super fresh and incredibly delicious, with the morning sandwiches being an absolute highlight. Whenever I make a purchase here, I can't resist indulging in the goodies on the very same day.Additionally, my husband is absolutely obsessed with their Bing soo – it's become his guilty pleasure. The overall experience at this bakery is always a delightful one, making it a cherished part of our routine.
