UPDATE: We went back a second time and had the best breakfast of my life. We ordered the beef stew omelette this time and it was absolutely incredible. A perfect Japanese omelette over rice with a beef stew that rivals the beat in France. I cannot recommend this place enough!! This as such a cute little breakfast place with the most amazing soufflé pancakes! Service was exceptional, and atmosphere was nice and bright. We got the banana soufflé pancakes and the salmon eggs Benedict which were both beyond our expectations. The soufflé pancakes were so extremely light with homemade whipped cream and a perfect caramel sauce. The salmon Benedict came on a latke and had perfectly caramelized onions. The egg was cooked to a perfect poach so it ran beautifully when cut. The prices are a bit high but you absolutely get what you pay for. Highly recommend, and will be back to try the omelet soon!

Cute little spot with a great ambiance. Food was amazing just a little on the expensive side. Between my boyfriend and I, we got the soufflé pancakes, creamy chicken crepes and a cup of coffee and it cost us $80. They do add a 20% gratuity automatically on all checks, HOWEVER they do mention it on the back of their menu. The service was great. Would totally recommend this place.

If you’re in Honolulu and love food that feels like it was made in heaven, The Cream Pot is an absolute must-visit. Tucked inside the Waikīkī Monarch Hotel, this hidden gem serves the most mind-blowing pancakes I’ve ever tasted. Seriously — imagine biting into a soft, warm cloud straight from the heavens. These fluffy pancakes are unlike anything I’ve ever had in my life. Sweet, delicate, and literally to die for. But the magic doesn’t stop there. The menu is full of other delicious choices, and I highly recommend the Vietnamese coffee — it’s super creamy with a rich, bold flavor that hits just right. Every detail of the meal is thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. The only thing I wish I had known ahead of time was the parking situation. It can be a bit tricky if you’re not familiar with the area. You can park inside the Waikīkī Monarch Hotel (which I found out afterward), or you’ll find a few parking garages nearby — just give yourself a little extra time to figure that part out. Overall, the experience at The Cream Pot is phenomenal — from the atmosphere to the service to the unforgettable flavors. If you’re looking for a breakfast or brunch spot that feels like a dream, this is it.

The Vietnamese Iced Coffee was delicious! I always order it when it's on a menu, and the cream pot delivered! We ordered the Lemon Soufflé Pancakes with a blueberry sauce, the pancakes were incredibly fluffy and a healthier option compared to regular pancakes due to the whipped egg whites, as the owner was kindly explaining to us. The beef stew omelette was MMMM so good omg. Plus the hash browns were crispy and a nice portion. I loved the cream pot and how friendly the owner and staff were + quick on their feet. I would definitely come back

I’m actually blown away with the food AND the service. Very friendly environment and staff from the moment we walked onto the floor. When they dropped off our food, some whipped cream slipped off to the side of the plate so they took it back on their own to replace the whipped cream for better photos. They really care about their presentation and quality of their service. 10/10 would recommend. This picture is of my demolished plate.

Absolutely the most adorable place I’ve ever dined. The people here tend to you like your family and make the entire experience so enjoyable. Every dish belongs in a magazine, it’s that beautiful! All of the flavors are so delicately crafted together and make you smile with every bite. The absolute best foodie experience we had on the island!

If I could eat here every day I would. The whipped cream is delicious I want it on everything. The garden patio is adorable, the entire dining room is beautiful. I love the lacey hash browns and you cannot go wrong ordering anything on their menu.

The service here shines more than the food if I'm to be honest. I've been here with friends about 4 times and every time we're always greeted with a smile. The servers are always attentive to coffee refills and water. I personally don't think the food is even close to the best I've had, but I still like this place. I had the salmon Benedict, French onion soup, and coffee. The French onion soup was just okay. I know this is hard to believe, but a commercial steak house has a better French onion soup. It wasn't bad or anything. It was just okay. The salmon benedict was also just okay. I've had better at Mom and Pop shops.
