About This Place

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Honolulu at 1110 Pensacola Street, Raintree Bakery Coffeehouse offers a warm and inviting escape for those seeking a delightful blend of cafe charm and exquisite bakery delights. This cozy spot draws locals and visitors alike, thanks to its thoughtful dedication to fresh, organic ingredients and an atmosphere that whispers comfort and conviviality.

Raintree’s menu is a treasure trove of carefully crafted dishes that cater to diverse tastes. From savory sandwiches like the hearty Prosciutto Di Parma & 2 Organic Cage Free Scrambled Eggs, the satisfying Tuscan Turkey Sandwich, to the ever-popular Vegetarian Panini, each bite bursts with vibrant flavors and thoughtful balance. Their bakery selection, including the soft & scrumptiously fragrant Guava Cheesecake and the tangy-sweet Passion Fruits Cheesecake, perfectly complements the coffee menu — a curated offering of rich Vanilla Lattes, smooth Matcha Lattes, and energizing espresso varieties like the potent Double and Triple Espresso over Ice.

The sensory experience here is truly intimate. One visitor, Pei Wang, paints a vivid picture of savoring a fragrant London Fog with lavender—a delightful secret off-menu item—alongside the guava cheesecake, immersing in the delicate blend of aroma and taste. Another guest, Betsy Yagunic, captures the nostalgic allure of friendly, old-fashioned service paired with irresistible pastries and a made-to-order raspberry egg cream, highlighting the genuine warmth of the staff. The passion for quality ingredients shines through in every conversation and cup, as Maya Henry warmly recalls the charm of the house-made almond milk enhancing her matcha latte.

The ambiance at Raintree Bakery Coffeehouse is quietly whimsical—an inviting nook where the hum of hushed conversations meets crisp, attentive service. Frequent patrons like Gia cherish the peaceful atmosphere, making it a perfect retreat to slow down and savor each moment, every bite, and sip. It is this fusion of passionate culinary craftsmanship and heartfelt hospitality that makes Raintree much more than just a cafe—it’s a beloved community haven.

Though there is sadness over its impending closure, as expressed by loyal customer Philip Chao, the legacy of Raintree Bakery Coffeehouse remains firmly rooted in the hearts of Honolulu’s local food lovers. It stands as a shining example of how food made with love and integrity can transform an ordinary visit into an unforgettable experience.

    Cozy cafe with locals hanging out. Stayed and got a cup of London fog with lavender (not on menu - just ask!) + guava cheesecake. Both are so fragrant that I sink into the scent as I savor the smell. The cheesecake is delicious and scrumptiously soft

    Husband and I stumbled in here while walking around. From the velvet rope to the absolute gem of a staff. He made us his favorite raspberry echt cream with real whipped cream. And the pastries were to die for. Definitely visit if you’re in Honolulu and have a sweet tooth and like old fashioned service… i.e. friendly :)

    Somewhat whimsical, quiet cafe with friendly and attentive staff. Their commitment to good organic food is clear through the flavor, and through their excitement to talk about it. It's clearly something they are passionate about and I always love seeing that in local cafes. It wasnt the best matcha I've ever had but I really liked how flavorful the house made almond milk was- they made it just before I walked in! The lilikoi bar was scrumptious as well. Overall the prices are a little high but if organic food is your thing, I'd say it's reasonable if you're dining in long enough to enjoy the place.

    Very sad to hear that this place is closing! We were fortunate to be able to enjoy their food and service one last time. The coffee and food was delicious. Everything is freshly made with love. The restaurant is very cute and tidy. The service is top notch. I will miss this place but am very happy for the owners! Wishing them all the best!

    The moment I walked into the coffeehouse, I was drawn into a wonderful storybook world! I was hungry after my third trimester of pregnancy checkup at Kaiser, so I walked in and casually walked into this place. I became a fan of this coffeehouse the moment I entered! It's like a quiet, magical place in between the hustle and bustle of the city! Plus the staff that showed up were nice older uncles. Very helpful, friendly, and they wear pretty red hats! I wanted the recommended matcha latte, but they were concerned about my pregnancy and suggested the mint iced tea. They served me the mint iced tea first while I was waiting for the turkey panini I ordered for takeout. The coffeehouse is surprisingly spacious and the atmosphere is so quiet and relaxed that the hustle and bustle outside is unthinkable. Each table is decorated with fresh flowers and is clean. I also took out a banana walnut muffin and lilikoi cheesecake. They were all delicious and organic attention to detail! The large muffins were moist and filling! Lilikoi lovers should definitely try this cheesecake! Anyway I love the world view of this place! Now I want to spend some time in the store.

    When you are craving coffee or something sweet, near Young st and Pensacola is Raintree bakery Coffeehouse. It's a quiet place to unplug from town life. You can get something to go but I suggest that you sit down and have the waiter serve you. If you close your eyes and listen to the old time music, the milk steaming, muffled conversations around you. You can get the feel of being in a European cafe' without the pesky travel nor the odd smell of Europe. From the preparation of the coffee to the taste of the pastry, everything was spot on. Know that this isn't a corporate coffee house so leave your Starbucks expectations at the door. This is what coffee is meant to be about. It's how it started and the love of coffee it continues, for those with discerning taste. The deserts were made not just to perfection. They were made with love. If you want to see and experience people that love whether they do then stop in here. I wish they sold that magic I'd take a bag home with me.
