A Slice of Comfort in Volcano Village

When the mist rolls down from the Kilauea crater and the air turns crisp, Big O's Pizza & Sandwiches becomes the go-to refuge for locals and explorers alike. This isn't your typical polished tourist stop; it is a no-frills, counter-service haunt where the scent of bubbling mozzarella and toasted sourdough dominates the room. Expect a soundtrack of buzzing conversations and the occasional clatter of pizza peels hitting the flour-dusted workspace.

Hand-Tossed Pies and Hearty Grinders

The kitchen leans into the classics. Their signature hand-tossed pizzas feature a robust, herbaceous tomato sauce that holds its own against generous heaps of pepperoni and fresh, crisp bell peppers. If you are fueling up before a hike through Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, the hot sub sandwiches are the move. The bread arrives with a distinct, golden crunch, toasted just long enough to ensure the melty provolone holds the thinly sliced meats in place.

The Local Pace

Plan your visit around a slightly slower pace. Since the kitchen focuses on made-to-order quality, don't be surprised if there is a short wait during the dinner rush as the oven works through the orders. Parking around the building can get tight during peak tourist season, so tuck your car in carefully. It is the kind of place where you grab a cold soda from the cooler, find a table, and settle in for a meal that feels like it was made in a friend’s kitchen rather than a sterile commissary. Perfect for hikers needing high-calorie satisfaction or residents looking for a reliable, honest dinner in the heart of Volcano.

Great tasting turkey sandwich to take to the Park. You order it by the cashier indicating your choices on the sandwich. Sodas are $4.

This place is great! From grocery items, fast food, sub sandwiches and great coffee, I highly recommend you stop by the store if you are in the area. I’m so glad we did.

I'm gonna cut to the chase: they have an espresso bar, AND IT'S FABULOUS! Tragically, I've been driving through Volcano for years, lamenting that you can't get quality coffee in this town - and it's been here all along! I got a dark chocolate frappe, and it was exquisitely rich and robust and not overly sweet. My only complaint was that the large size seemed pretty small. They also have a nice selection of homemade baked goods. I got the Coconut Crunch Cookies, which BROKE DA MOUTH! They were so buttery, light, and crunchy! They have a huge selection of prepared foods, drinks, grocery items, alcoholic beverages, and souvenirs. And, they got plenty ALOHA too! Love this place!

I dont typically review little stores but we were very impressed by this little gem. Very well stocked and organized, especially considering other places that are around! The staff were super friendly. Even some home cooked little items like cookies and macadamia dessert bars.

Love this place. They have wonderful baked goods, especially the macnut bars. If anyone figures out how to make these I would love to know. We also tried the banana and pumpkin bread. They also make to order sandwiches. I have attached the menu of items that they will put on it. The store has about anything that you could need: Wine, beer, food, snacks, and baked goods.
