Crema's Take

This beloved Maui institution has earned its reputation as a pastry destination, with reviewers consistently raving about croissants that live up to the hype—from lilikoi to dulce de leche—paired with an exceptional cold brew that locals say is the best on the island. The welcoming atmosphere and kind staff create a genuine gathering spot worth the predictable morning line, though it's worth double-checking your bill as a few customers have reported pricing surprises. Beyond the pastries, their breakfast menu holds its own with standouts like avocado toast and salmon sandwiches, making it an essential stop whether you're fueling up for the day or settling in for a slow sit with locals and travelers alike.

We stopped here after getting in the morning. It already had a line of customers in the morning. The line did move quickly. From the pastries, we decided to order the lilikoi croissant. I had a iced matcha latte from my drink. The iced matcha latte was good. The matcha taste was pronounced throughout. The croissant was filled with lots of lilikoi filling. It was the right balance of sweet and sour. The croissant outer layer though could have been flakier and crisper. Next time we should try another pastry.

This was such an incredible experience on our trip. The cold brew coffee was the best on the island. Perfect croissants. The avocado toast and salmon breakfast sandwich were both wonderful. Can’t rave about this place enough.

Cafe is nice, but overpriced and overrated. I was charged extra , make sure you look what you pay for. Not sure if it was done intentionally or accidentally. They mixed up the order too. The line was also long and we waited for just a coffee for another 15 minutes. Overall, I did not like the experience and will not be returning back. I ordered nuts turt which was also not tasty, way too sweet and sugary.

First time visiting Hawaii — and Maui — with family. Stopped by at Momona Bakery in Kahului, Maui. I ordered the caramel chocolate croissant — the smaller one, forgot the name — and some pistachio latte drink that was on the Winter Specials menu; if you search online, their menu is outdated and only has the Fall specials, so don’t trust that. Anyway, the pasty was pretty good, the lattes usually are a hit or miss for me and this one was kind of a miss. I do like pistachio though so I’ll give it a pass, even if it was heavy on the milk and cream for some reason. The pasty was pretty good, I shared it and it got over pretty quickly. Our table ordered some other croissant, I think it was the mango one, and that was alright too. All in all, passable coffee shop in Maui, and not bad for a first visit to one on the island.

Hands down some of the best pastries we have ever had! Atmosphere was welcoming, staff were wonderful and so kind. Long line… but so worth the wait. The Dulce De Leche croissant… speechless.
