Food hub/cafe serving up creative dishes using local ingredients

Roots Cafe partners with several local farms/farmers, including Ho'oulu Aina, Mōhala Farms, Anthony Deluze, Hāloa Poi, Sisou's Farm, and more!

They have a really creative constantly changing menu, always a vegan option, for entree, soup, and dessert. Always a supply of amazing vegan from scratch dressings, for example, sapote, dragonfruit, calamansi, etc.

They also have a "mobile market" with produce from the producers they partner with - often stocked with green papaya, cucumbers, kale, poi, eggplant, etc.

Pros: Locally grown, native ingredients, Constantly changing menu, Mini market selling local produce

Cons: only open Tues, Thurs

Delicious, unique, local and affordable!

I love Roots Cafe! I appreciate the local food with organic ingredients. The staff is super friendly and since I am a vegan they are always very helpful in helping me choose what to order. Only open Tuesdays and Thursdays 11-1pm. So nice to have a healthy option in Kalihi. They are inside the KKV Wellness Center all the way to the back. Stop in, you won't be disappointed! So ono!

Pros: Vegan options, Friendly staff, Delicious and unique food

Cons: limited hours, limited options

Sweet potato, quinoa and chick pea patties! Veggies, steamed potatoes and a coconut milk taro dessert! $10...YUM!! at Roots Cafe in Honolulu

Menu changes daily. Always a vegetarian option. Always delicious and affordable! at Roots Cafe in Honolulu

Vegan pumpkin curry with veggies and brown rice. $8. Delicious!! at Roots Cafe in Honolulu
