Barefoot Beach Cafe @ Queen's Surf Beach

One of my bucket list items is to dip my toes in Waikiki Beach. While on the big island, visiting family, I was able to check this one off. We googled, best restaurant near Waikiki Beach, and came up with the Barefoot Beach Cafe. It was a beautiful morning, not too crowded, when we arrived, but by the time we left it was packed with a very long waiting line. We sat right on the beach in a lovely park area, and we're able to partake the delicious, traditional items, mere steps away from the beach. As you can see from the pictures, everything was served with native flowers which added to the ambiance. On the kids menu they had hot dogs and and fries. In fact, the ries were so yummy, we ended up ordering an extra basket of them because one of the grands wouldn't share, lol. I wanted to try t

Enjoyed breakfast and dinner here! The breakfast burrito was by far best breakfast burrito I ever had! Could almost share it with 2 people very filling. Generous portion for the fish fry as well! Smoothie was just the right amount of fruit. Loved the views and the music in the evening! Thank you for the great food and memories ❤️🌈

Our hotel was at the east end of Waikiki Beach, and searching for nearby restaurants, I found one a short walk, on the ocean. The next morning, we walked along the Waikiki shore to Barefoot Beach Cafe, where we ordered breakfast. There was a line, but it moved smoothly. They have a lot of choices on the breakfast menu (served from 8 a.m.—2 p.m.). We both ordered the omelet and went for the omelet. I had Portuguese sausage and cheese, while my wife ordered the green pepper and ham. We found a seat right near the promenade, where we could look out and see the ocean (over a short planter-box/fence). After a few minutes, our order was ready at the pickup window. Both our omelettes were full of the add-ons, not skimpy like some we’ve had elsewhere. They were also served with red potato ha

Best food I had in Oahu! They have everything from açaí, the smoothies inside pineapples to the fish of the day to Steak and the best Kalua pork. They also have Burgers and fries. I loved that it was fast food service but on Real plates and silverware! If you want a great atmosphere for couples , go after dark, to have the string lights and ocean waves. The musician we had on Tuesday Jan 20th was fantastic! I know they don’t have the same ones every night though. The only down side we felt was that it was in Waikīkī, which was not our favorite city to be in to say the least. But this cafe was worth going back to Waikiki just to eat there!!

This was my favorite restaurant on both Oahu and Maui and we ate the majority of our meals here during our time in Oahu. It is walkable from Waikiki. Outdoor dining with beautiful ocean and beach views. The menu is large and diverse enough that we were able to try something different each time. Everything we tried was delicious. Great local fish. Portions were huge and my wife and I wound up splitting meals after our first visit. The atmosphere was incredible. It's out of Waikiki's commotion and they had very good local musicians every night. Prices were very reasonable and comperable to the Midwest. The only downside is I probably won't get to go back and nothing in the Midwest can compare. Edit we were there in February of 2025. There was construction going on for the path behin
