Amazing little stand. Fruit and ingredients tasted very fresh and a perfect start to a day at the beach.

Yummy açaí bowls with delicious home made peanut butter! Lots of fun choices. Quick and made right after you order.

Good: Service Natural Ingredients Healthy options The banana date smoothie and the peanut butter smoothie were both simple yet delicious. The other tropical smoothie needed more flavor, likely just depends on how sweet/ripe the fruit is, recommend adding some dates or a bit of honey. Would return.

This morning we The Granola House in Lihue, Kauai, and tried their Kailea Bowl. It was absolutely delicious! The combination of fresh, vibrant ingredients and their perfectly crunchy house-made granola made it a refreshing and satisfying choice. I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for a healthy and flavorful option on the island.

This is basically a roadside stand, see my pic. (There was some outdoor seating.) We stopped by to get granola for the following morning's breakfast. As you can see from my menu pic, they have a variety of packaged granola to choose from. Or, you buy granola by the bowl. We had their Granola Brittle, see my pic. The brittle had a really nice crunch and snap. The mixture was the very traditional style: heavy on the oats and seasoned with local honey and brown sugar. We enjoyed this.

I happened on the Granola House which creates some excellent smoothies and açaí bowls. Service is very slow because it's one person doing everything and most of the drinks are custom made. However, I thought it was worth the wait as my smoothie was delicious. There is a small sitting area where you can enjoy the ambiance of the area.

Amazing Açaí bowls and coffee stop on the way to the North Shore. I got the coconut cold brew and hubby had the salty Hawaiian. The açaí flavor is so creamy and smooth- not tart at all and their granola is hands down the yummiest.

We stopped by a couple of times to check out The Granola House on our latest trip to the island. Their social media posts had popped up on my feed & since my lady loves her some acai bowls, I let her know that this place looked good. Our initial trip there, it was quite busy. It was mid-morning and it looked like a lot of folks that had checked out nearby Wailua Falls were there for some acai bowls & smoothies. My lady got the The Kauaiian Bowl ($16) which comes with their house-made peanut butter, Wailua granola, blueberries, strawberries, chocolate chips, a drizzy of raw Kaua'i honey... all of that on top of their signature acai blend. This acai bowl looked great. My lady really liked it. She almost always gets an acai bowl whenever we go to the North Shore & we were glad to find a place in town that had what she likes. Covered seating available. Some benches and some chairs that face the lush small valley out back. It's a nice view... We picked up some Wailua Granola ($12) to take back to the mainland on our 2nd visit as well. Service was friendly. Plenty of parking out front in their lot. Located right off Kuhio Hwy before heading up towards Wailua Falls.

First time at this spot and it was great! Seating outside options both in the shade & sun. I had the "Kauaiian" açaí bowl ($16) and it tasted very fresh- loved the blueberries in it. Friendly staff, lots of parking in the front, and easy location right off the highway. Would recommend!

PERFECT acai bowls!! Was craving an acai bowl and remembered driving by this humble shop, so glad we came back ---acai bowl: packed with goodness! Absolutely love the cocoa nib topping, it added an amazing crunch ---yogurt parfait: the hubby wanted something and doesn't like sweets but he really enjoyed this! Wanted to come back a 2nd time during our trip but just didn't have time! NOTE: It's a shop in a little parking lot, they have picnic tables for you to enjoy your treats
