Honolulu Museum of Art Café
900 S Beretania St., Honolulu, HI
Crema's Take
“Tucked inside Honolulu's museum, Art Cafe offers a surprisingly serene escape where leisurely breakfasts and thoughtful dishes like curried turkey salad and fresh vegetarian eggs Benedict shine in a peaceful, artistic setting. While service moves at a contemplative pace and the acoustics can be quirky, the genuinely warm atmosphere and quality ingredients make it worth a reservation—and you don't need museum admission to dine here. It's the kind of place where locals linger over coffee and conversation, trading the hustle of Waikiki for something quieter and more intentional.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
