Liliha Bakery is a bakery that consistently wins first place in Hawaii’s popularity polls.
It is called Liliha Bakery because it was founded in the Liliha district, located right next to Downtown!
It is the most locally loved bakery in Hawaii, and its Coco Puffs (cream puffs) and butter rolls are particularly popular.
By the way, a Coco Puff is a cream puff shell filled with cocoa cream, and the name is an abbreviation for "Cocoa Cream Puff."
In addition to selling baked goods, it also operates as a restaurant known for its affordable and hearty meals, open from morning until night.
Liliha Bakery’s Coco Puffs
If you go to Liliha Bakery, you must check out the Coco Puffs!
Distinct from typical cream puffs, these feature a filling that is densely packed with rich cream.
They are slightly smaller than standard cream puffs, but when you pick one up, it has a solid weight to it, making it clear that the cream inside is something special!
By the way, they also sell regular cream puffs, so be careful not to buy the wrong one by mistake!
There are four types in total, but other than the Coco Puffs, the Original Cream Puff, Chocolate Cream Puff, and Green Tea Cream Puff are actually just three varieties of regular cream puffs. Haha.
The Coco Puff is the only one topped with an orange-colored cream!
Liliha Bakery’s Restaurant Menu
Beyond the baked goods at the counter, Liliha Bakery is open from morning to night.
There are several unique menu items, so I would like to introduce some recommendations!
Butter Rolls
Next to the Coco Puffs in popularity are these butter rolls.
Believe it or not, you get Liliha Bakery’s special butter rolls for free in the restaurant!
Many restaurants offer complimentary bread, but getting free butter rolls that people specifically come to buy feels like an amazing deal.
By the way, refills will cost you extra. Haha.
Oxtail Soup
Liliha Bakery’s signature dish is this oxtail soup.
One of Hawaii’s traditional dishes, this soup is filled with large chunks of oxtail. It has a Chinese-style broth with a rich flavor that goes well with rice!
There is a generous amount of meat and plenty of volume, yet the price is cheap.
It is the number one most popular menu item ordered by locals.
Fried Chicken Plate
Fried chicken is also one of Liliha Bakery’s popular menu items.
It is a best-seller with a hearty volume and strong seasoning typical of American food.
In addition, meat dishes such as Loco Moco, steaks, and hamburgers are basically the best-sellers.
I suppose the dessert Coco Puffs go well with hearty meat dishes! Haha.
