One of the best bakeries in Honolulu. Mainly Japanese style bread. Our fav is Epi bread. Pay attention to the “out of oven schedule”. Lots of items sell out right away.
First time coming here, really nice bread variety is amazing, fresh and delicious.
I would’ve put 5 stars but I got a sad feeling to presence the kind of treatment the cashiers were doing to the guy who makes the bread. I think if they don’t like what he’s doing they can talk to him aside and not in front of the customers. Kind words are always better!
This is a small bakery with many delicious baked goods to try. Everything we had was tasty and we recommend it. There are a variety of flavors and you can also get a loaf of bread sliced to your preferred thickness. If you like fluffy bread, give this bakery a try. There is a parking lot so access is easy.
Saw this cute bakery with the NOW OPEN sign and decided to give it a try. I bought a loaf of raisin bread and they offer to slice it to your desired thickness. It was so soft and yummy! The kids loved their chocolate chip muffin and ther cream (custard) pastry. I will have to come by for their raisin bread again and to try their sweet and savory bakery items!
This morning I found my new favourite bakery!
Coming from London it's hard finding nice pastries here in Hawaii but this place has a wonderful selection of sweet & savoury goodies. The staff are friendly too.
Staff is super polite and ULTRA efficient + fast. Pastries, cookies, buns, pan, muffins 🤤. I've got a problem, because I always walk out with much more than I intend. 13/10 would recommend. Pricey, but worth it. Pumpkin buns are life 🙌🏾
We go to this bakery almost once a week especially for the Banana chocolate Croissant.
I also liked cinnamon roll but very pricey for what it is I thought. (Overall, everything is pricey compared to the mass produced ones, of course....)
The Anpan is ok, if you prefer sweet beans to be very sweet, you will like theirs. Since the Anpan bread is already sweet, I find it is too sweet for me.
We like their wheat bread, country bread and baguette which we buy on regular basis.
Breads are baked fresh onsite and the shop has wonderful smell.
Always a happy customer at EPI-YA. This place is usually packed and busy (understandably). Their bread and pastries are always fresh and delicious. You can tell while you eat that they use quality ingredients and know what they're doing when it comes to baking. The moment you take a bite, the bread starts to melt in your mouth and is very soft and fluffy. Their savory pastries are filled with flavor, yet not too salty or overpowering. Their sweet pastries are light and just the right amount of flavor and sweetness, where you want more.
I used to buy bread at St Germain bakery and hoped that this new place offers the same quality since former St Germain employees are involved in Epi-ya. Luckily when I visited there first time, baguette was freshly out of oven but when I started eating while it was still warm, it was already dry and hard... very disappointed. Curry pan had very little curry inside. Croissant was pretty good. It's still newly open so I am hoping that things will improve over the time.
High quality at a great price, there’s not much more to say about it. I highly recommend the custard pie (pls don’t buy too much so I can get a slice too).
