Welcome to Kalapawai Market! We're a neighborhood market by the beach serving up fresh sandwiches, gourmet coffee, and specialty goods to the local community. Located at the beautiful entrance to Kailua Beach Park and just minutes away from world-famous Lanikai Beach, we've been a part of life for Kailua and Lanikai residents since 1932! Many of our customers have grown up with Kalapawai Market -- from snacks and drinks after school or coffee, sandwiches and wine on the way to the beach. At Kalapawai Market, our specialty is coffee. We offer a full line of gourmet espresso and coffee drinks as well as a full line of our own Hawaiian-Roasted coffees. We proudly feature Hawaiian Paradise Coffees in all of our espresso beverages. We have carefully selected our gourmet bean sources and worked with quality roasters and blenders to bring to you truly world-class gourmet coffees! It has truly been our pleasure to help preserve our special way of life. We welcome you to visit us and enjoy our hospitality today!

Great little market with the most amazing sandwiches
Grab a couple drinks, some sandwiches and you're good to go relax on Kailua beach!
They have a nice little covered outdoor seating if you wanna eat there
They sell Andy's Salsa, who is a local guy that makes the best salsa I have ever eaten!
They also have quite the selection of souvenirs and photo/art prints for sale
I always come back here, and the people who work there are super friendly!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 1 - Jan 7, 2024
Our friends brought us here because they said the banana bread is so good. They were raving about it.
Maybe my expectations were too high, but it was below average banana bread. Very dry, not much banana flavor. Felt like it might be old. Expensive too for a single loaf.Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 0 - May 27, 2023
Awesome local market with everything for the locals to the tourists!
Priced on the high side do to the location, just a few blocks to da world class Kailua beach.

Nothing better than a delicious sandwich after a beautiful walk on Kailua Beach. This local market is both adorable and full of good things. They also have picnic tables outside so you can grab your food and hang out for a bit while you eat. The folks at the deli were super sweet and helpful. I got the BTA (bacon, tomato and avocado) sandwich on a plain bagel - I've never met a place that voluntarily skipped the lettuce and it was decidedly a perk. Loved it!

We stopped by here to grab quick drinks. We got coconut latte and while we were waiting, my friends got juice from the fridge. All of them are very good (we got ginger, pineapple and nectar)! The cafe is really big.

Convenient location to Kailua and lanikai beach.
If you missed the grocery stores in Kailua this is your last chance for snack, beverages and fresh food options.
Got the fresh Mahi sandwich. Good/ filling, lacking a little in the Mahi department in my opinion but tasty and everything by tastes better at the beach.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

A friendly, neighborhood market that sells sundries, fresh coffee, and other beverages.
The coffee is fantastic. The coconut overnight oats cup is delicious. And the lemon poppyseed muffin was fresh and moist.
This is the right place to start your day.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Sep 25, 2023
What a nice fun market with all kinds of items to purchase. Live near by and need some item you need for dinner, they might have it. There are souvenirs from hats, tshirts, insulated cups, and more. They were grilling some chicken outside and it smelt amazing! I did not get any food here, so cannot say the taste, but it sure smells good.
