The way they do breakfast is special. Every breakfast item made with love and you feel it when you receive that beautiful piece of food art. Iced coffee with pistachio is great as well. Thanks G’s Spot!

This place hits the spot! We’ve been twice so far and tried everything on the breakfast menu. The grilled cheese has lots of flavor and very rich. It might give you a heart attack if you haven’t had one. It’s delicious! The avocado toast is the best my 11 year avocado toast aficionado has ever had. The eggs in egg pocket are perfectly cooked. Good latte! The orange juice is actually fresh, although diluted with ice. Expect to wait once it get’s busy. This place has a limited menu, but they do them right. Hope it becomes an Avalon staple.

A really nice casual spot to grab some great food. We had the grilled cheese and an egg pocket. Both were amazing, really liked the presentation of the egg pocket which even had an edible orchid on top reminding me of Hawaii! The owner was super friendly too!

This place is adorable. The service is always so sweet and friendly. They serve my favorite iced latte on the island. Truffle grilled cheese and the egg pocket are so delicious. The menu is small but all the items are perfect. Cozy little dining patio along the side.

The food and drinks were amazing! We got the Egg Pocket and Bacon, Egg, and Cheese on a brioche bun. We also loved our iced latte with oat milk and iced coffee! Looking forward to going back soon.
