Crema's Take

The Jammin' Banana Bakery & Cafe is a beloved island breakfast destination where the real stars are the creative bagel sandwiches—particularly the cheddar jalapeño—paired with locally-inspired drinks like macadamia nut lattes and reliably smooth cold brew. Their malasadas and banana pudding have earned devoted fans, though the shop seems to shine brightest with savory breakfast items and pastries rather than more technical espresso drinks. It's the kind of fast, family-friendly spot where you'll find the line moving quickly and locals coming back for their favorite sandwich combo.

Worst matcha I have had. Tasted bitter and oxidized and was clumpy in the milk. Açaí bowl had zero fresh fruit and was at least half filled with extremely sugary granola. I threw both away. Front of house worker did not call my name when the açaí bowl was ready and I sat there for a good 15 minutes waiting for it. Workers had attitude. Waste of $20

This was our favorite breakfast spot on the island. Highly recommend the cheddar jalapeño bagel and macadamia nut latte. The banana pudding was also incredible though very sweet. The service is fast and friendly. Mahalo 🌺

Stopped by The Jammin’ Banana Bakery & Cafe and loved it! We tried the malasadas and they were fresh, soft, and absolutely delicious. Paired them with a cold brew, which was smooth and refreshing — a perfect combo. The staff was incredibly friendly, photogenic and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. Definitely a spot I’d come back to and recommend to others!

The brekke bagel sandwich special was delicious! Got the cheddar bagel with regular cream cheese one day and cheddar & jalapeno bagel with regular cream cheese. Both were delicious, the jalapeno definitely added heat. The smoothie and coffee were good too!

This place is definitely worth checking out, especially if you love banana pudding. We were looking for malasadas initially and ended up at the jammin banana. We got each of their malasadas, including sugar coated, pumpkin filled, vanilla filled and chocolate filled. Each were delicious and the pumpkin was my personal favorite. My friend got the breakfast bagel sandwich and loved it. The banana pudding was homemade, flavorful and not too sweet.
