Eagles Lighthouse Cafe

My family and I stopped here for breakfast today. My bacon, egg and cheese croissant was delicious!! It was a cold rainy morning, so we chose to eat in our car rather than the casual outdoor picnic tables even though they were under cover. I would definitely stop back if we were in the neighborhood!

Lovely ladies, and amazingly generous and filling sandwiches at a good price. We saw the great Google reviews and went for a late lunch at 1:30pmish after a morning in the vulcano national park. We went for two sandwiches and we're not disappointed. We also tried their iced coffee, which was delicious as well. They do close at 2pm, I think, and had already run out of several of their hot dishes so plan on coming earlier if you are looking for that. Clean and nice out door seating area.

We didn't really have time to grab hotel breakfast on the way out (Kilauea Lodge) and searched and found this little shop nearby. Biggest. Sandwiches. Ever. I could barely get my mouth around it haha. Tried the Turkey on the volcano bread with some toppings and it was great, could only finish half. Signs show to wash your hands before entering. The two ladies inside were kind and helpful. Great service! No dine in - only carry out in quite robust boxes or dining at the outside picnic tables.

Truly a gem! Delicious food, great vibes. We got food for a whole day from here and everything was delicious. Love the verses posted everywhere. We tried: ham croissant breakfast sandwich, fried rice breakfast bowl with bacon and Portuguese sausage, hot chocolate, and got chili and cornbread to go for dinner later in the day, and a cinnamon roll and guava shortbread cookies for munchies for the rest of our trip. Everything was 10/10 and they were really quick considering it was a large order and they were really busy.

Come here immediately after hiking for the biggest sandwich you can fathom. Extremely well made, family owned, and a relaxing outdoor dining experience. We got there late so there weren’t too many bread choices, but it didn’t matter. If you like a nice lunch sandwiches and a cold drink, this should be your stop after visiting the park.

This place would be four stars elsewhere, but on Hawaii near Volcanoes National Park it’s a clear five because this is an expensive touristy area with service that is sometimes rushed and impersonal. The young 5’1ish woman behind the counter was exceptionally friendly and kind. The ambiance is casual with outdoor seating under an awning and world maps where you can pin your home location. The food is an excellent value for the area, with generously packed fresh-ingredient sandwiches that are hard to find at this price. The veggies were delicious and high quality, making the fresh veggie sandwich both filling and impressive. The young woman who served me was wonderfully helpful despite the long line, and I hope she’s recognized for being such a great employee.

Not too many spots open early or have vegetarian options. At least here we were able to get a decent veggie sandwich and hot cocoa for breakfast and portion size was generous too. Our feedback is that it would be great if they could add a toasted sandwich option and an espresso machine but whatever we tried was decent enough .

Eagle's Lighthouse Cafe is such a special spot! There's something really unique about it. The setting is beautiful and the outdoor seating is so charming and relaxing. The coffee was great and I'm already excited about all the variety on the menu to explore on my next visit. I got the breakfast bowl and wow, the portion was super generous! I also couldn't stop eyeing their pastries. They looked amazing and I'm definitely trying one next time. The cafe was busy the whole time I was there with a constant flow of people coming in and out, which just shows how popular it is. Can't wait to go back soon!

We stayed in Volcano for two nights while on the Big Island and the first place we ate at was Eagle’s Lighthouse Cafe. Came at around 9 AM on a Friday and they weren’t busy. The ordering area is very small and only suits a few people so be warned. They do however have a decent amount of tables outside. The lady who took our order was nice. I got the Breakfast Croissant with bacon and also got a Cinnamon roll to try out. Overall, everything was great! The sandwich was hot and fresh, and the cinnamon roll was super tasty. Overall, if you’re in the village of Volcano getting hungry for a quick bite, this place will suit you well! I’ll be back.

We spontaneously stopped by for breakfast after we had left the Volcanoes National Park. This cafe is truly unique. It was lovely decorated with christmas ornaments. After washing our hands outside the buildung (they kindly ask you to do that, which is ok) we entered the small cafe and were very friendly welcomed. Our quiche and the bean soup were wonderful. There is a covered patio where you can enjoy your meals. A great and unique place we can highly recommend.
