This is a secret place that has been let out of the bag! The Gazebo has wonderful inexpensive breakfasts, lunches and a one of a kind view! The hours are from 7:30am until 2pm and the line does start at 7am. This is the place you definitely have to get up early for, unless you like standing in line.
Just go North on Hwy 30, (The LOWER part of Honoapiilani Rd) to the Napili Shores resort. Drive straight to the back of the complex until you come to a dead end. Park and walk thru the pool and it’s right there.
There are about 20 tables inside here, and service is pretty good, so tables turn relatively fast and he (Jerry, the owner) usually has a coffee station set up at 7am, to help wake you up.
Just so you know, the combo pancakes (macadamia nut, banana and pineapple) are to die for and you absolutely have to have at least a short stack to share. You would be doing yourself a huge injustice if you skipped them. They come topped with this wonderful whip cream concoction of Dream Whip, butterscotch and maple syrup. It sounds really sweet, but it’s perfect. I had it on the side because I wasn’t sure if I would like it, but it really made the dish. The coconut syrup that was on the table was good, but the dream whip really was perfect with the pancakes.
My other favorite dish (because I share the pancakes) is the Popeye omelet. It’s loaded with fresh spinach, Maui onions, cheese and topped with hollandaise sauce. YUMMY!
Hubby tends to get the Portuguese sausage omelet.
They have POG if you’re interested and even the coffee is yummy.
We’ve never had lunch here, but they have some interesting looking salads. Maybe next time we come, we’ll have lunch, but breakfast is a must!
Skip the $25.00 breakfast buffets and make the short drive thru a very quaint community to the Napili Shores Resort and the Gazebo restaurant. You might get a chance to ring the ‘Whale bell' that sits poolside.
