Popover
399 E Kawili St Suite 102, Hilo, HI
Crema's Take
“Popover in Hilo is a charming spot that celebrates the humble popover in creative ways, from savory sandwiches like turkey cranberry and pastrami to sweet treats like ube donuts and lilikoi butter mochi that showcase local Hawaiian flavors. The baked goods are made fresh throughout the day with genuine care, though inventory can be limited and mornings get busy, so arriving early rewards the patient visitor with surprisingly delicious finds. It's the kind of place that wins people over with distinctive, flavor-forward food rather than fuss—reviewers consistently rave about how blown away they were by the flavors, even when they stumble upon an empty case.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. Pastries and light food on the menu.

Very fresh delicious food. We had breakfast flatbread and turkey avocado popover. Super fresh. Large portions. We ate outside in order to enjoy the fresh air. Its a little noisy from street noise but not offensive. Taking fresh popovers home with us!
