Booch bar is a great local spot with some tasty eats that gets you away from some of the standard eats you’d find on the island. Offering a nice selection of both gluten free and vegan they definitely cater to someone with more of a restricted diet!
That said as a meat eater the jerk chicken tacos
Love this place. I have been coming here for years. Great for breakfast or lunch. The Kombucha is fantastic. Lilikoi or my favorite ginger/tumeric…..so good. I had the blackened fish sandwich today. It was delicious along with the sweet potato salad. The staff if super and cool vibe. Th
The Booch bar is really a bar and more of a take out spot. There is seating but you have to order at the counter and someone brings the food to your table. You also have to bus the used plates and utensils once done with dining. We stopped by for a late lunch this past week. Food was enjoyable a
We visited the Booch Bar when we were in Hilo on the Big Island.
They have a lot of vegetarian options and they can make a lot of stuff vegetarian/ vegan by removing/ substituting ingredients.
We thoroughly enjoyed the meal we had here - we ordered the Mushroom Bibimbap, Verde Vegano and Kombucha
We ordered mushroom omelette and blackened fresh catch bibimbap.
Best omelette that I had in a while. It’s very interesting taste but in a good way.
The mahi is way better than the ones we had at lots of places.
Would be love to come more often for the breakfast.
Good food, great vegan choices too! The bartender could have had a better attitude (dismissive, aloof, unfriendly). Another bartender, slimmer guy came to help us; he had a better attitude and saved the dining experience!
Not lot of great options while in Kona, sadly the city looks really depressing in our last trip but at least one of the bright spots is this little restaurant with no signage, we got referred to it by another store which worked out. Food is pretty decent although really bizarre that they were out of
A great place to have fresh clean healthy food and tasty burger to satisfy everyone in the group. Love their ginger turmeric kombucha and Lilikol lush. Best fish taco we’ve had here.
Food is so ono and the ambiance makes you want to kick it at booch for a daily soul kine of pick me up. ✨✨✨ Mano Ali’i bringing all the mana in the background. Grilled fresh catch fish (mahi) tacos and fresh catch bibimbap is melt in your mouth and spike your taste buds good. Booch on the tap and ge
One of the few options for a decent breakfast early in the morning. Most places in Hilo focus on giant pancakes and servings. Here they focus on quality. I have had numerous meals here over the years and enjoyed everyone. Their coffee is also excellent.
Really, really enjoyed our nourishing meals here during our short time in Hilo. Loved the variety of vegan, vegetarian, gluten free and non vegan options. My favorite was the mushroom bibimbap and the super ginger turmeric tonic booch. We enjoyed our first meal so much we came back the next day for
Great cafe for light fare especially vegan, komboocha. They now serve alcoholic drinks. The space is recently renovated and has additional seating.
Last day on the Big Island and we finally found a place that had Gluten Free meals. The meals were delicious and more “normal sized “.
Just a fun place to get a bite to eat.
Delicious counter-service spot. As someone on a very limited diet, this was my favorite dinner meal on the island, and probably the best GF sandwich I've had in a while. Vegan/GF desserts hit the spot, too, along with a great selection of beverages.
Edit to add: breakfast is amazing too! Nice hefty
Great spot for vegetarians. Hard to find a place with multiple vegetarian options and this place has quite a few. I got the tempeh Reuben and I highly recommend it if you like Dijon and sauerkraut flavors. The marinated tempeh was delicious by itself as well, same for the purple sweet potato salad.
Nice feel, tasty enough breakfast. Service is chilled out and friendly s food could be more enjoyable - out blackened fish omelette, toast (sourdough from a Kona based bakery), potatoes were screaming for some moisture. The olive tepanade was a great touch for the omelette. The kids’ sausage was a b
The Booch bar is an unique place at Hilo. I highly recommend this cafe . The crew is lovely and laid back. A special thumbs up for the omelette with blackened fish and the delicious tropical smoothie. Keep going, it is a great place! I haven’t found a better place at Hilo
I love the Booch Bar. I've lived in Hilo Town for 9 years and have watched this place grow. I am so excited about the new expansion though I am sure that people were sad to see "Bear's Coffee" go, but the pandemic was hard for many. I love the new booths here because there aren't a lot of places
