Goofy Cafe & Dine is a second-floor brunch spot at 1831 Ala Moana Blvd in Honolulu’s western Waikiki, near Hilton Hawaiian Village. It runs on an “Eat Local” philosophy, building Hawaiian comfort food around island-sourced and organic ingredients. Breakfast is the main draw, and the surf-shack décor gives a lazy morning near the beach the right mood.
Climb the stairs and you’ll find surfboards, weathered wood and a breezy lanai-style room that feels more North Shore than Ala Moana Boulevard. The menu centers on morning plates. The Island Eggs Benedict layers fresh spinach and crispy bacon, and the Mixed Berry French Toast is made with Big Island bread and gets steady praise from diners (Wheree). Expect island staples such as loco moco and fruit-heavy bowls alongside coffee and fresh juices. The kitchen leans on local produce wherever it can. A newer sister location, styled “Surf More, Work Less,” serves all-day dining across from Waikiki Beach (Goofy Honolulu).
Visitor Highlights & Practical Info
Weekend brunch fills up fast, especially from late morning into midday. For a calmer table, arrive early or come on a weekday. Families appreciate the relaxed pace and shareable plates. The cafe sits within walking distance of Fort DeRussy Beach Park, Duke Kahanamoku Lagoon and Ala Moana Center, so a meal here pairs easily with a beach morning. Street parking is scarce, so walk from your hotel or take TheBus along Ala Moana Boulevard. Confirm current hours on the official website before you go.
